Booked under the counter. Turned up to be told we had been moved to the counter. Frankly not acceptable, we should have been called. Not the experience we wanted and I would have gone elsewhere. No apology. Food was mediocre, much better Turkish food elsewhere. Extremely loud, could not hear my partner over the table. Server was great… but will not be going back

Our dining experience was truly exceptional. Mr Alexandre, our waiter, was outstanding; his attentive service and friendly demeanour significantly enriched our time at the restaurant. He offered great recommendations and ensured we felt well taken care of throughout the meal. The dishes we ordered were nothing short of exquisite, beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. Each bite was a delightful journey for the palate. The restaurant's ambience contributed to the overall charm; it was warm and inviting, with soft lighting and cosy seating that made us feel right at home.

Great service,vibe ( music slightly loud for any one over 50 like us ) Food was good and over all a very good night My only criticism is the amount of tables squeezed into the space but then maybe that was to accommodate Valentine’s Day - which I had totally forgotten about

Always delicious. The white chocolate baba ganoush is really one of the nicest things I have ever eaten. The service and ambience is great and the restaurant has a really nice vibe to it, just right for that part of soho

The food is delicious but the portions are small but expensive. In general I was really happy with the taste and quality of the food however overpriced considering the size of portions.
