I dropped in at around 2PM on a Tuesday for a late lunch after hiking up both West and East hills. So I was pretty hungry. I was greeted quickly and sat at a four-top near the bar, and handed a menu all in short order. I opted for the lunchtime mezze special and a Turkish coffee to perk me up. Both came relatively quickly, and were spot on. The mezze platter was very filling and came with a great assortment of veggie and meat dishes as well as some pitta, hummus, and a sour yoghurt and dill dip that was excellent on the spicy sausage. My favourite of the lot was feta and dill filled pastry, which I could easily have eaten a raft of. The peppers were nicely grilled, the sausage spicy and delicious with the marinated aubergine and courgette. The bread was hot, and great for soaking up the last of the oils and dips at the end of the meal. Service was quick until I needed to pay my bill, but a trip to the bar sorted that. I would definitely go back.

Restaurant was almost empty at the time we arrived so we should have had any problems in getting our stuff served. Funny enough a couple of ladies arrived five minutes later than us had been served prior than us(apparently having the same thing). We’ve had two portions of meze. Frankly having been in other Turkish restaurants before our expectations were much higher. We got just two slices of their typical salami, a micro slice of halloumi(that required the magnifier to be seen), two rolls(one fried and one wrapped in the vinegar leave). All the rest was standard vegetables and some rice just«thrown» in the fish to make it full. A separate dish split in three between pomegranate dressed salad, hummus and another yogurt sauce). Two pita breads. All of this for £14.60! This dish wasn’t worth £10. Sadly my phone ran out of battery, otherwise I would have posted a picture too. Not to mention the lamb chops for five of them. £18.60 worth meal which was probably £12. And one chop was even not a chop but a piece of joint full of fat. With surprise we’ve had to pay also the two additional pita breads. No way to come again. Highly unrecommended.
