Tulay Turkish BBQ Restaurant & Bar — Restaurant in Sefton

I had previously visited here before and was very satisfied with my order last time, so when me and my friend were looking for somewhere to eat here was perfect. Made a last minute booking and staff were perfect, incredibly friendly, took our order perfectly. Each item on the menu we got meat wise such as the sucuk, chicken, lamb chop and Adana kebab tasted individually different seasoning wise yet used very clear tradition Turkish spices which I love. The lamb chop especially unlike some restaurants, was not too fatty and had a lot of meat on the bone. Chicken and sucuk like all the meat had a good kick to it and tasted spicy, warm and notes of that sweet and charcoal taste I love. Sauces like everything else was served hot and fresh! Not to mention the complementary bread, which I was able to take leftovers home. Even the salads tasted very nicely dressed and fresh, the rice particularly has a lovely flavour and bit clumpy like some places who serve old rice. Cheesy garlic bread and red salt chips tasted pretty much as described and very delicious, maybe a bit more garlic and herb flavour on the bread however would be better. Mainly due to the generous amount of cheese which covers a lot of flavour. The falafels although small were incredibly delicious and a first for me in trying surprisingly. My only main issue however was that the Adana kebab which I requested extra of (and did not get extra) was smaller in size than I previously had received when ordering this meal and meat wise tasted maybe a tad over cooked. Maybe for the meals such as the mixed grill it would be helpful if the menu would tell you more about any additions or substitutions. Noteworthy mentioning I grabbed a fudge cake dessert to take away which tasted excellent and still moist even the next day. I’d recommend this place for anyone who enjoys Turkish or Mediterranean cuisine in general. The warm welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, combined with id say authentic tasting food makes it worth a...

Loved going to this restaurant for many years, food and service always spot on. When they started to deliver to keep business going during lockdown, I wanted to support local business. I asked the owner if he would deliver to my area and he said yes because I was a good customer and only 0.1 of a mile over the 3 mile radius. I ordered and there was no problem, spent approx £40. The second time I phoned to place an order, I was told by the owner that I lived too far for delivery and I was 0.4 of a mile over. I explained that he had agreed to it before and delivered to me a few weeks prior sayimg i was 0.1 of a mile over. He said if I ordered more food he would do it just that once. My order was already £30, no way was I ordering more food, very very disappointed to be treated like that especially when I had been a regular customer for several years. Never will I attempt to order again nor will I ever visit the restaurant. I supported many small local businesses during lockdown but i don't like it when people become greedy...

Visited Tulay for our Christmas dinner! Phoned up weeks previous too book, and ask for the menu & prices for Christmas Day! After speaking with the staff, before I went ahead and booked, I explained one of my children was autistic and would they be able to meet his dietary needs, as he's so fussy. They reassured me that they would cater to this. I went ahead and booked, and me and my family had the best time ever! We chose the traditional Christmas dinner off the Christmas menu, which we all enjoyed along side our starter of soup & chocolate cake for dessert! The staff couldn’t do enough for my son who opted for chicken nuggets & chips!! We was made to feel welcome from the moment we got there! Each and every one of the staff was amazing! So attentive, understanding to our needs, and couldn’t do more for us! I will definitely be returning. Thank you too all the staff who made our Christmas...
