EFES Turkish Restaurant Clifton Road — Restaurant in Worthing

I decided to celebrate my birthday here with my family after reading all the great reviews on Google and also from family members that have eaten here before. Reserved 3 tables for 20 people and ordered 2 x Platters for 6, 5 x Calamari, and 4 x Caesar Salads and I lost count his many beers and cocktails we ordered but the Efe’s Draught beer went down really well with meat. Smooth and not bitter.

I am going to be completely honest here, in the 30+ years of trying Turkish dishes around the world, the food here was hands down the best I’d tasted. All the meats were cooked to moist perfection. It was not dry nor undercooked. Although I still enjoy it I have never been a huge fan of lamb chops and ribs due this distinctive after taste that it has but here it did not have that after taste so I really enjoyed that!

The server that took care of us (Neil) was awesome with a great sense of humour that kept everyone entertained and was always in sight whenever we needed him. He definitely went above and beyond and even prepared a little surprise treat or two for me just for my birthday.

Normally I hate Baklava because they are so sweet but this is the first time that I enjoyed eating it and actually finish one.

The atmosphere inside was great allowing a sense of relaxation with the room temperature set just right and not like a cold chiller like some other restaurants. The lighting was ambient and not too bright enhancing the relaxed atmosphere.

I definitely need to return again someday because whatever shot of liquor Neil gave me on the house was so good!

3x chunks of chicken pieces 3x small chicken wings 3x chunks of lamb pieces 1x sish kebab 1x small rice 🍚

Now your probably all saying not bad and I would normally agree but for the price you paid for that spread you could have got from your local kebab shop and alot lot more !!! Sure you get to sit in a restaurant rather than being at home At the end of the eve with a few drinks a couple of starters and puddings Meal for two was roughly about £35 a person making the while eve approx £70 odd pounds plus a little tip !! Is it worth it you decide. Will I go back mmmmm maybe but not...

This evening I had the pleasure of dining at Efes Restaurant, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. This was my first time visiting, but it certainly won't be the last!

Though Efes is a smallish Restaurant, the layout is thoughtfully designed to ensure everyone sits comfortably. The well-decorated interior created a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The food was absolutely delicious—every bite was a treat. The menu offers a great variety of dishes, and everything we tried was cooked to perfection. On top of that, the restaurant was so clean, which added to the overall positive experience.

The service was another highlight. The staff was attentive, friendly, and efficient, making sure that our dining experience was seamless from start to finish.

Overall, I had a fantastic time at Efes. The combination of great food, excellent service, and a pleasant atmosphere made it a five-star experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a quality dining experience. I’ll definitely be...
