Agacan Turkish Restaurant — Restaurant in Scotland

Visually stunning, busy, smoky and exciting. Oh and the food is to die for.

We had a table for 2 at Agacan booked later in the evening as this spot is incredibly popular. It had been recommended to me and for good reason, this was perfect.

The restaurant itself is very intimate and close with an open kitchen so you can see and smell absolutely everything. A light haze from the grill filled the place which was honestly not a bad thing whatsoever. The walls... Actually everything (tables, chairs and bathrooms included), was covered in amazing hand painted artwork.

The service was excellent, being attentive but also not overbearing. They were very friendly and the perfect amount of chatty.

The food was for lack of a better word, f*cking delicious. Everything was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The menu is small, but they have perfected it. The balance of savoury and salty, fresh and funky was perfect. I could honestly recommend anything from here.

The price shocked me too. 3 courses for 2 was just under £60, including drinks. I was blown away by this place. I will be back many more times....

It’s not often I give 5 stars, but this is easily a six.

The restaurant itself is very small which gives it quite an intimate feel. The building inside and out is decorated with interesting art work.

The menu is kept relatively small focused around kebabs which keeps the food quality really high.

We were served very quickly by the friendly waitresses. I had the Karisik kebab which is made up of donner, pillic, pirzola and kofte. My girlfriend had the pillic.

All of the meat was incredible. Very well seasoned and absolutely delicious. The rice is also outstanding, the best rice I’ve ever tasted. Portions are massive too which make it good value for money, neither of us could actually finish our meal. The waitress did say they would also accommodate smaller meals (e.g. 1 kebab rather than two).

My only minor criticism, and it’s probably more of a preference thing, is that the chilli sauce seems to have some yoghurt running through it it. Given a yoghurt sauce is also served, I would have preferred to just have a pure...

The Agacan has been open for so long for a reason, the food is wonderful and the atmosphere is great. Turkish food is my absolute favourite so i was very much looking forward to our meal, the waitress made us up a custom meal that id seen a picture of on the agacans instagram page - going above and beyond. Scoffed the lot, the only very minor complaints i had were that the lamb was very chewy and the table next to us was very very loud which isnt the restaurants fault at all but made it quite hard for us to hold a conversation, anyone whos been to the agacan knows its a very small restaurant anyway so we are all sitting very close. Other than that it was a fantastic meal, great price and we will...
