"We chose two main courses, both paired with salads and rice. Unfortunately, my favorite dish, the Adana kebab, was unavailable, so I opted for lamb shish instead, along with my wife. The food was fantastic and bursting with flavor, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The restaurant itself was very clean and tidy, the waitstaff were well-presented and extremely polite, and the restroom was spotless. We had a wonderful experience at Taste of Turkish and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy authentic Turkish cuisine."

"This is a really nice restaurant whose lunch menu provides great value for money. While it's not made clear on the lunch menu itself, you get both a starter and a main for £9. The portions were good sizes and we all thought it was really delicious and authentic tasting food. This is one place where we will definitely go to again. The ambience is nice and the waitstaff we had was attentive and friendly."

"Exceptional standard of food! I don’t think I’ve ever had lamb as tender as this it melted in your mouth! Cocktails were delicious, Kids portion is plenty big enough I would have been happy with this size myself. They brought out a birthday dessert free of charge which was a lovely extra. Service was great, so all in all I would highly recommend this restaurant and I’m already looking forward to next time! Thank you. P.s I usually have something to complain about lol but there was nothing to fault at all."

"beautiful caffe with so many incredible lunch and breakfast items! They can warm their beautiful special sandwiches and the deserts are also exquisite! the atmosphere is beautiful and the beautiful large windows brings much light into the inner. there is also a lot of coffee choices and would love to see some descriptions on each desert so that we can look for their history and influence of the plate more: some students rabatte or point card system could also be beautiful!"

"that was my first time in the city souvlaki and definitiw the last thing that is a scandal, because eating was nice, we couldn't blame it. I wish that could be said about the waitress. Every time she came to our table, she rolled her eyes and she saw it to other guests too, but not the ones that she knew we were creeping. I am a Greek cypriot, but I shouldn't flicker to get good service. a good service should be given to everyone, regardless of where they come from."

"Yalla Yalla is the cutest little Lebanese restaurant in the Soho district in Central London. A hole in the wall size restaurant, which can just about seat 10 people, but serving real awesome, authentic Lebanese food in a simple and cute presentation. The staff at this place is particularly sweet and friendly. Really feels like you are sitting in a Lebanese friend’s kitchen and having a meal cooked by his/her, mom. They have a concise menu with ample vegetarian options, which is great. Everything on their menu tastes great and you can feel the freshness. They are fairly priced for the quality of the food offered. Would definitely recommend this little eatery if all you looking for is great food and an authentic experience without a fuss of fancy ambience, etc."

"We took my sister and husband to Sokrates to share a Meze. From start to finish everything was excellent! Service, food, ambience all outstanding. Our guests had been to a couple of Green restaurants in Cheshire recently and rated Sokrates the best of the bunch."

"We ordered the set menu and food was nice but had to repeatedly remind the staff about the dessert and coffee, which was included to it. We also needed to repeatedly ask for extra cutlery and plates, in order to avoid sharing food from salads, meat platter etc. given the 'new normal ' situation. Nice atmosphere, although the place was a bit too noisy upstairs, mainly from the kitchen area."

"You can’t deny that Central London has a certain buzz to it! We visited Ali Ocakbasi, a fantastic Turkish Restaurant in Leicester Square and dined alfresco on a warm evening. The staff were super friendly from the outset and there was a lively and relaxed atmosphere. There is a whole host of amazing dishes on the menu focusing on traditional Turkish feasts. You can choose main dishes from the grill or oven or, like us, choose several starter dishes as mezzes. There are 14 cold starters and 5 hot starters so plenty of variety and choice. We paired our mezzes with a glass of Turkish red wine each Buzbag, Anatolia, Turkey £7.75 glass/£39 bottle). It was a warming wine, yet light and crisp with deep fruity notes. We had the following Cold Mezzes all priced at £6.40: Beyaz Peynir – Traditional Anotilan white cheese Acili Yogurt – Homemade yoghurt served with chili red pepper slices on top Kopoglu – Small cubes of fried eggplant, potatoes and green capsicum pepper) served with special tomato puree and yoghurt on top Muhammara – Traditional spicy paste prepared with crushed walnuts, twice-baked bread, tahini, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice Kisir – Special bulghur salad mix with Anatolian spices and vegetables Turkish restaurant in Leicester Square We opted for the following Hot Mezzes: Semsek – Traditional pidette with cheese £3.80) Sigara Boregi – Deep fried pastry rolls, filled with cheese and parsley £6.40) Sicak Hummus – Warm homemade hummus served plain or with your topping of pastrami, Anatolian sausage or both £8.40-£10.90) As you can see we had 8 mezzes between the two of us and this was absolutely plenty. Each dish was pretty much perfect – amazing colours, great levels of spiciness.We were impressed by the quality and flavour of every dish and all had something different to offer the palate. This is just such a stunning Turkish restaurant in Leicester Square. In such a busy part of London you really do get the best of both worlds here – the tranquility of exquisite dining whilst watching the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist hub. There was amazing hospitality, something we saw them deliver to every customer which makes all the difference. A thoroughly recommended restaurant."

"Fantastic!!!! Staff really friendly and even gave me complimentary dishes as I had gone two days in a row. Can't fault anything. Only complaint is that the portions are too big; don't eat anything before visiting as you will definitely be full. Highly recommend this awesome place. The £21.99 platter is a real good deal. You get the hot and cold meze starter, platter of meats with rice, dessert of your choice and tea or coffee. The second time I just had the mixed grill and that too was good value at £12.99."

"We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance while walking around, and it turned out to be a hidden gem. Despite not having a reservation, we were promptly seated. Anna assisted us in choosing our dishes and provided excellent recommendations. The Baba Ganouj appetizer was superb, and my lamb kofte burger was equally delicious. The portions were generous and the food was served at the perfect temperature. Finally, Michael, who assisted us at the end of our meal, was extremely welcoming and even spoke to us in Spanish (the language spoken at our table). We would definitely return to this restaurant."

"This is the best Mediterranean food I have ever tasted. The dishes were incredibly fresh and packed with flavor. The chef was warm and welcoming, treating us like family. The dessert we took to go was absolutely amazing. We are only in town for a short visit but we definitely plan on returning to this restaurant!"

"Just enjoyed our take away from Sami’s and had to write to let any coeliacs know that, if you’re looking for delicious kosher food with plenty of gluten-free options, then this is definitely the place for you. Firstly, the lady taking our order over the phone was extremely clued in with what was suitable for coeliacs. This was possibly the first time ever I can remember being told, completely unprompted, that any of the fried foods would not be suitable due to cross-contamination with the oil, where shnitzel and other food products share the oil. What impressed me equally was that she offered for the chef to wipe down the grill for any meat or chicken I may order, as normally the pita uses the same grill, rendering it unsuitable for gluten-free customers. I was really very pleasantly surprised at her level of knowledge (possibly she’s a coeliac, too? . There are virtually no kosher restaurants in London where I’m guaranteed even one soup on the menu that is gluten-free. Here there were 3, as well as the option of choosing the chicken soup (but without the extras . Usually the restaurants say that the stock they use isn’t suitable so when I find a restaurant with a choice of soups I feel truly spoilt! Finally, I must make the important point that the lady taking my order was extremely polite and patient over the phone, and I didn’t feel under any pressure to make a quick decision over the phone. Despite not being English, she understood me perfectly, I didn’t have to spend ages spelling out my requirements (something which I often gave to do with other North West London kosher restaurants! and she was extremely efficient. Thank you so much, Sami’s. We have just finished eating and our meal was DELICIOUS!"

"The quality of food was good. Everything tastes fresh and homemade. The price is on average and the furniture is all right. The service was fine, just a bit of lack of ambient positivity in the atmosphere. We had 5 starters, 2 mains, 2 bottles of sparkly water for ~70£. The portions were enough for 3 persons."

"My wife and I visited for the first time and I have to say it didn’t disappoint. On the contrary, it impressed. The owner, his sister and the staff were very warm and welcoming. We felt more like family than customers and this made the experience so enjoyable. We had the garlic prawns and lamb’s liver to start simply delicious and cooked perfectly. Liver is very easy to overdo but this is as good as it gets. We both ordered the mixed grill for our mains. I’ve eaten many mixed grills in the past but this was just perfect and plentiful. Soft chunks of meat cooked with care. This place is a cut above your everyday Turkish restaurant. Everything about Chef’s Cuisine was just perfect. We believe that great food and service should go hand in hand and Chef’s Cuisine have nailed both. As long as they continue to meet such high standards, which I’m sure they will, we’ll keep going back. Just try stopping us!! Looking forward to my next visit already."
