Ate here tonight with my family and the food was delicious. The service was excellent! We ordered an assortment of main dishes many of them involving lamb as the staple meat. We took advantage of a special and ordered 4 starters and one main meal to share between two diners. We live in the States so we won’t be able to return but if we were locals this would be a mainstay restaurant for my family.

I’ve only been a couple of times previously, but remember the restaurant fondly. So we were nearby last night and it seemed like a good idea. We were initially a little panicked as we walked further down the road than we remembered but thankfully it is still there! The waitress was great, super polite and it was a pleasure to hear her interact with the other tables. We both opted for the grills this time around rather than the Mezze dishes we’d had on previous visits. I had the chicken kebab, while my wife had the halloumi wrap. The chicken was so delicious, in fact I’d be quite happy to eat it again right now as I type this up. It came with a choice of fries or rice, I opted for the rice which was also good, and it came with the side of one of the best garlic sauces I’ve ever had as well as some salad. The halloumi was also great; we’d been to Nandos recently and thought that the stuff there was bland and rubbish. Thankfully this was like my memory of great halloumi; fresh tasting, a great texture and grilled to perfection. Wonderful experience and I can’t wait to return.

We’ve been here a few times and it’s certainly a great place for a tasty meal! They do special deals on Sunday-Thursday making the value good, too. Mezze is around £4 each. There’s lots of choice and the staff are friendly. Everything we’ve tried has been good and we always leave full. The meat is cooked well and everything seems to be of a high quality. My only criticism is that when we tend to go, on a Sunday afternoon, we’re usually the only people in the place, so there’s not a lot of atmosphere.

Above review is spot on, had a wonderful meal here and midweek they do a deal £12.50 for a starter and maingood sized portions and friendly service meant that on a Wednesday night the place was full buy 8pm! Loved everything we ate, mixed grill was a fab choice as was the lamb meatball starters. Truly a fantastic find.

What an amazing place, and an absolute must if you love the authentic taste of the Mediterranean. Everything is cooked over charcoal so you get a beautiful BBQ taste to many of the dishes which is really authentic of many Mediterranean dishes. The restaurant has been taken over in the last 2 years+ so if you visited the place previously and were dissapointed with the standard of the food then another visit is well recommended. The staff are amazingly friendly and very helpful, thoroughly explaining the dishes to the minutest detail with real passion and enthusiasm. Whether you are eating with friends, out with business or having a romantic evening with your significant other then this place is ideal and covers all basis. We started with the mixed mezze between two of us(which is plenty when having 2 – 3 courses). This can be served as a course for one person but we decided to share to get the taste of as much of the cuisine as possible. The great thing about having this as a starter is that there is two of everything so it is also great for sharing if you do not have a huge appetite. 2nd course consisted of the Signature dish of the Mixed grill(charcoal grilled minced lamb, marinated tender chicken and lamb cubes, garnished with salad, served with Cedar rice or French fries), which was sumptuous succulant and tasted amazing. my wife had the Sea Bass and stated that it was the best fish she had ever tasted. The meal was finished off with a nice sweet and all was washed down with a lovely bottle of house red. At the weekend(and sometimes during the week) they have an organist in the restaurant playing authentic lebanese(with the occassional western) music. A little bit Peter Kay(ish) but certainly added to the great atmosphere.
