Best restaurants near me in Basingstoke, England

Not my first time, but my partner's first and he was happy with everything: the food, the service, the ambience... He would like to go back to try the seafood menu :-) My son and his gf recommended the special mixed platter for 4 for the main course. Succulent and tasty! We added the Greek salad, garlic mushrooms, humus kavurna and babaganoush. Perfect blend. For dessert, Turkish coffee for me (always), Turkish tea for my son, cheesecake (lighter than most, ie not so creamy or cheesy), and baklava. Delicious! Oh yes, cocktail for 2 as well:) As a repeat customer, I can say that Meldiz is consistent with their quality of food and service.

Lovely Christmas lunch. Clean plates all round as a testament to the chef. Excellent service with a smile even though it was busy.

Always amazing service and a warm welcome. Delicious food, cosy atmosphere, authentic style. Never disappointed.

Wonderful meal, although had to wait for a time to get initial drink. Was disappointed that they tried to get us to pay for bottled water when we asked for tap water! Lovely touch with a complimentary bottle of Prosecco

Astonishingly good service with even friendlier staff
