The food is OK and that's where it ends.
Service is extremely slow with no time to explain the menu or anything else. Mucked up the order even though it was repeated by us and the waiter and our entrée was forgotten. Apparently the initial order is painstakingly rewritten neatly onto another docket. No computerisation here.
No followups during the meal to see if we wanted anything else or more drinks. Left finished dishes on the end of the table in the hope they would attract the attention of the staff to clear the table and ask about desserts and coffee.
Alas we gave up waiting and trying to get someone's attention so we paid up and went around the corner to Jones & Co for coffee & dessert.
Best option if after Turkish food is to look elsewhere.
Unfortunately I'm not in a position to recommend this restaurant and I won't be going back anytime soon.
Very overpriced for the quantity and quality of food.
Best food in Canberra - and the people are just as lovely
Lovely service with beautiful food! would love to come again someday :) p.s: the dips are amazing!
Beautiful meals that come out quick . Great service lovely to have a chat to . Old style setting which creates a welcoming space . 5 stars !
Disappointing. This place use to be great years ago, now it has gone down hill.
The staff were great, attentive and friendly. The bread and dips were very nice, and the zucchini balls were good the next day once heated - they came to the table a mix of barely warm and cold.
The mains were very disappointing. First off, one main was brought to the table. It then took 10 minutes for all but one of the remaining mains to be served, and another 10 minutes for the last main to come.
The mains were just plain white rice, a sad handful of salad and a couple of pieces of meat. For the price you would expect some spices added to the rice - even a more traditional rice, more meat and better salad.
The place is also looking old and run down - from the now black carpet on the stairs to the bathroom door without a lock. A refresh of the dining area and bathrooms would definitely spruce the place up nicely.
