The region has a huge diversity and fusion of cultures and cuisines from all over the world and the region is known as “Food Paradise”.

All our kebabs are grilled on real charcoal flames, tava dishes, lahmacun and bread in our wood fire oven.

Ingredients are sourced from reputable suppliers to ensure that we are getting the best produce on the market every day. Our meat and poultry are halal with halal certification on display in the restaurant.

We have a passion about the sumptuous flavours and wide diversity of Turkish cuisine, with its Middle Eastern influences, reflected in delicious dishes such as traditionally cooked kebabs, tasty meze and sweet pastries such as Baklava.

We look forward to welcoming you for traditional Turkish dishes, freshly prepared and served by experienced staff.
