   This is a well situated restaurant with a good Middle Eastern menu. Excellent coffee and good selection of wines. Fixed price menu good value. However, service, though charming, was a bit inattentive. Took a while to take orders, bring bill etc. The main course of casserole of chicken was just really a massive plate of chicken! It was enough for four men of healthy appetite who had been working in the fields all day to bring in the harvest! It was off putting and wasteful, because we could only eat a fraction of the plateful. It would have been better to balance a small amount of meat with couscous and salad.

   This is an excellent restaurant, very well placed in Bloomsbury between Holborn and Tottenham Court Road tube stations and nearly next door to the British Museum. The food is delicious and portions very generous. The fixed price set menu, available at lunchtime and in the evening, includes a free drink (glass of house wine, beer or soft drink) and carries a wide choice. Highly recommended.

   An excellent place to bring a large group. Tas was flexible and helpful. They let us pay separately (we asked in advance) and didn't hirry us out. The food was great. We were all very happy

   Food was a complete joke.Portion sizes you are kidding me you call 2 small pieces of chicken and 2 small pices of lamb mixed kebab.Calling Burek a tiny tiny samosa this is a hard pass. The food didn't have flavour.Adding service charge without asking is ridiculous.Bill was £84 and left hungry. Chairs were extremely uncomfortable.Avoid at all costs.Not worth the money I would rather go somewhere else like Harringey Green Lanes.

   Dear Kristina, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear we did not meet your expectations. We always aim to offer quality dishes, and while portion sizes reflect authenticity, I understand they may not have met your preferences. Your comments on flavour and comfort are noted, and we’ll work to improve. We seated your party at a spacious table by the window for added comfort. Service charge is standard but optional, and we’re happy to adjust when requested. We regret that we couldn’t provide the experience you were hoping for. We hope you give us another chance in the future! Warm regards, Tas Bloomsbury

   The food was really good. There was a lot of choice on the menu. We all had different choices and everyone enjoyed their lunch. The service was good in that the waiter was there when needed and we weren't rushed. The portion sizes were good. The only small problem was that the table was near the door, which meant it wasn't very warm where we were. It was an exceptionally cold day, so I guess the situation was unusual.

   A friendly, long-estabished gem of a restaurant in this corner of Bloomsbury, serving good Turkish food from a wide menu. Strongly recommended.

    We were a table of 14 and abdullah accommodated our request to have a long table or two tables of 7 together. To help speed things up I sent a list of the meals that everyone wanted so that helped the kitchen enormously I'm sure. Service was very good as it always is and I recommend everyone go there - it was so nice not to be rushed and all 14 of us enjoyed the meals. I'll definitely go again!!

    Dear JillF, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for choosing Tas Bloomsbury for your gathering! We're delighted to hear that Mr. Abdullah and the team could accommodate your group so comfortably and that pre-ordering helped make the experience even smoother. It’s fantastic to know that everyone enjoyed their meals and felt well cared for. We truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation - it means the world to us. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon! 😊 Best Regards, Tas Bloomsbury
