"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."

"Such a lovely way to start the New Year with a lunch visit to one of my favourite restaurants in London. The front desk provides a warm welcome though I wished that the “jacket tie” dress code for men had been sustained. A well-proportioned man was hovering at the front sporting an over-large zipped up windcheater and open neck shirt. Not at all smart so I hope he was apprehended before he entered the restaurant! What next? Baseball caps on the wrong way round? Back to the good old days of proper standards please. Thanks to ever helpful House Manager, Michael Stokes, we had a delightful table which provided ample screening for our business discussion and the service was discrete but always experienced and timely. The ambience continues to exude quiet luxury. I feel the Seasonal Menu is terrific value important in a tight and high tax economy) with 3-courses offered for £47.95. My starter choice of half a dozen Carlingford Irish Rock Oysters was superb. Freshly shucked mouthfuls of sweet salty pleasure with a contrasting red wine vinegar and onion dressing. Absolute heaven on a cold winter’s day. From there, I moved to the Carving Trolley and myriad slices of tender honey roasted gammon with creamy mashed potatoes. Spinach £7.00) and French Beans £6.50) were extra but worth it. Finally, we both had the gorgeous Bread Butter Pudding which was light, sweet and sitting in a moat of delicious custard. The wine list is imperious and impelling but not so easy to find a value for money midday measure. I opted for the Tuscan Le Volte Dell’ Ornellaia 2018 for £98.00 which drank well. Plenty of fruit flavour and not too heavy. Overall the bill was a meaty £274.16 for 2 with service now at 15% but this is a very special restaurant."

"We went to this restaurant as a large family after a nice day out for Eid. We usually eat at Turkish restaurants and ordered a mix of BBQ, doner and very overpriced kids meals (nuggets and chips £8.95? . Compared to other restaurants, the appetisers were very small and four adults having to share one very small portions and the salad had no tomato and very dry. We had to constantly ask for things from very uninterested waiters, including Turkish bread and water. When the food arrived: the adana kebab were very small, literally half the size of other restaurants. The 2 skewers put together would equal one elsewhere. the lamb shish only 4 small cubes? very small portions of chicken doner for THAT price all the BBQ meals did not have anything next to them apart from the meat and chips no salad, no onion, no grilled tomato Also, the menu says each meal has mushroom and this was not provided. To top it off, we were given a piece of sweet and asked if we wanted tea and we said yes. A minute later, they came back to tell us there is no tea and would take 25 minutes and we felt like we were being kicked out of the restaurant with the way it was said. Since when does it take that long to make tea? When we mentioned to the waiter, the reply was 'I gave you more than enough ' This was an awful experience and ruined a very enjoyable day for us. This is not cheap and we will not recommend this to anyone."
