"lokkanta serves Turkish food, but more along the street food sorte. do not misunderstand what they do, they do quite well, but do not even expect a chic Turkish meal here. what is available is similar to what they can see on a Lebanese menu with different names and spicy. they do a lot of grilled meat and donators (think shawarma) we got a plate of meze hummus, a yogurt dip, tomato-based salsa and some well maintained sweet salad with thin strips of lavender as brot free while we waited for our food. the lammbarsch was a beautiful, mildly flavored meat in a beautiful crumb outside the bakery pack. think about it as a cross between a samosa and an early role. for the net I ordered the lamm iskander kebab doner / shawarma slices lamb on a bed of crisp fried brot squares with tomato sauce and beautiful thick yogurt and a side offer of garlic sauce and her clobular chili sauce. bruder ordered the lamming aprons that came with a small side salad on a bed of larger korn cousin. he loved the aromen. I ordered Turkish tee, which served as only black tee (no minze, no apple taste only in a traditional Turkish shaped tea glass) bruder had the ayran (yoghurt drink), which was prepacked, but he found it very refreshing. service was very sweet and friendly. the staff always smiled slightly. they know the menu and can help them meet a choice when they need it. we were quite filled with this meal, but had to end with baklava. their baked layers are much thinner than most baklava, which I have tried in this city almost filmy, not too too too zucker. Personally, I like a bit more crunchy of the nuts in my baklava, but that was a more refined version and therefore the nuts were really finely crushed. we also have 2 pieces lokum (Turkish joy) free with our bill and it was so good that next time I order the lokum instead of the baklava."

"24/8/20 We three middle aged SE Londoners from Lewisham are taking advantage of the Government subsidised Eat Out To Help Out scheme. I had wanted to sample the delights of Lewisham for years but had budget restrictions. This was an opportunity to redress this. We turned up on spec quite late on a Monday at 21:20 to find a large deep busy restaurant of mixed families and groups of young people, quite noisy but a good atmosphere. The staff were young too in general. The pavement tables were all full and we were taken to a table toward the back. We took seats and as the staff were so busy it took a little time to be presented with the menus I nearly grabbed them from the service station myself). They were busy though so give them credit. The music was interesting Turkish versions of popular songs, Isla Bonita included! The menu was large and varied and we chose a beer each along with the main courses, no side dishes or starters. At 22:45 A waitress popped a small plate of olives and wooden bowl of pitta bread on the table, which was welcomed. The draft Tuborg Turkish brewed) beer arrived at 22:50 and we toasted the meal to come. As it was busy the food was taking a while to arrive and we ate all the tasty olives and most of the bread. Another waiter popped over and asked if we wanted a refill, we said yes and he returned with a larger plate of olives than original which was welcome! At 22:05 the main courses started to arrive. The portions were generous, my friend especially liked the chunky Swordfish dish £14) with the trimmings. I had Fish Guvec £17), a mixed seafood with cheddar cheese topping, which was hot and delicious! Our friend really enjoyed his Salmon Tava £15). I had bulgar instead of rice as a change and it was tasty. The side salads were also good. As the evening went on the families left and the noise decreased. Others arrived quite late 22:45) but were happily served. The mains went down well and I decided to have a rice pudding so ordered it from the waiter. My friends ordered another beer I was happy) between them and the waiter said he would bring two glasses to share it, that was good of him, instead of ordering two smaller more expensive beers. I waited for the rice pudding... and waited, obviously being made fresh I thought. We chatted with the waiters as they relaxed and the back staff came out to clear up the front trays. At 11 the rice pudding finally arrived, it was in an aluminium tray and chilled! The waiter apologised as he had completely forgotten he said! We forgave him! It had been a very busy day! The staff relaxed at the end of a busy night. The EOTHO days had been busy as Friday the waiter said. By 23:05 we ordered the bill which came printed including the 50% discount for the food £9.75 each). The total was £39.25 in total and we left a £4 tip. We left at 23:15 thoroughly repeat and sated."

"Where do I start... I 'm going to be really honest, this was my first and last time here. First off we were promised a live music which turned out to be more on the lines of mumbling some lines. The atmosphere was drab and non existent. The food was cold and tasteless. Most of my friends that went (12+ we couldn 't finish our meals as meat was uncooked and carbs (rice chips were still frozen. We paid £30pp for a belly dancer, live music and a set menu, which is fair enough. The belly dancer was outstanding as always and was entertaining. Couldn 't say the same about the service and fixtures. We asked for water a number of times and was then presented with a plastic water bottle which wasn 't very clean with tap water and was told to share this across the table. We were not impressed. The reason for this was they had run out of jugs (btw no-one had jugs or food for that matter. Timely delivery of food, didn 't exist. We got to the restaurant at 19:30, we had some drinks caught up ordered. Starters came out at 20:50. We then entertained by shouting in the kitchen and what seemed to be a disagreement between all staff, other diners at this point started walking out without eating anything as they had waited so long. Then at 21:57 we were graced with our main meal which was half hot half cold. Rice was pretty much frozen, meat was hot but as mentioned before, some was uncooked. Not too mention the smallest lime in my 'strawberry daiquiri ' which has literally no taste. We you can tell from the pictures these were not happy customers a lot of food was left... Yes a plastic container for my sweet and sour sauce instead of the promised aioli sauce. Bearing on mine the whole time we sat with our coats and scarves on as the AC was turned up so high our hands were turning blue. In conclusion, if you want to pay through the nose for cold, uncooked and unfriendly stay them please come enjoy (sarcasm ."
