I have been here a few years back, and I was so excited to be going back, as I have fond memories of the food there, and I think that it was even better than I remembered. The portion sizes are perfect. It's will balanced diet, you'll get your 5 a day easily. And the food is the best I've ever had outside of Turkey 🇹🇷. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant if you are ever in the Cambridge area!!!

The restaurant is much bigger and nice than it looks from the outside. It has nice bright skylight and nice decor inside. Very nice dining experience. The food was really good too. Loved all the grills and hummus was nice texture. The staff and their service were lovely. Just had really great experience overall.

Restaurant provides efficient, friendly and helpful service. Staff members are positive and well mannered. Restaurant is tidy, clean and bright Food is fresh, colourful, with rich taste. The food is fresh, vibrant, and full of rich, authentic flavour. We were pleasantly surprised to receive a complimentary plate of fresh salad, warm homemade bread, and delicious sauces before our meal—completely unexpected and not included in the bill! To top it off, we were treated to a complimentary Turkish tea to our baklava at the end—such a thoughtful touch 🫶🏻 We ordered two starters and one large main to share between two people, which was just perfect after a long, busy week. We’ve been coming here for years, and it only gets better with time. Highly recommended!

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.

Absolute amazing experience here today. We actually parked in the car park just behind with a plan to go to another restaurant but the smell of the grilled meats wafting through made us change our mind and so glad we did! We had the mixed grill, lahmachun, hummus and it was so good we decided to pack another mixed grill just for tomorrow’s dinner. Extra sauces all provided and we just felt genuinely looked after. Owners niece Chidah was amazing!

The most authentic lahmacun in Cambridge without a doubt. Everything made from scratch in-house including the bread (which is incredibly rare) Fantastic staff and atmosphere.
