I took our senior managers. It was quiet night (state of origin) but food was fantastic.

We had a booking at 8 pm. We were informed on the night the kitchen closed at 8.30pm. Everything seemed rushed from here on in. Including being told a 9.45 the restaurant would be closing. We did not have time to order coffee. Not a pleasant experience as it was too rushed

Lovely Turkish restaurant. I'd imagine this place is bustling on Fridays and weekends. We were only one of a few tables dining when we went, so it was quite a quiet atmosphere. I prefer a little livelier setting, if only to make conversations at a regular volume not feel awkward. But the food was gorgeous and tasted amazing. Service was also top notch.

The food was mostly quite good. But the baklava was disappointing - there was not much flavour, it was really bland. Where was the honey/rose/lemon sauce that gives baklava flavour? I am part middle eastern so I know good baklava when I have it. The dips at the beginning were amazing, the lamb main delicious, my husband enjoyed his prawn main also, and the haloumi was another highlight. Service was great, very friendly.

The food was very good, and the service professional but very rushed (it was Mother’s Day). The music was too loud, making it hard to talk/listen to other people at our table.

Lovely atmosphere but overpriced. All mains averaged around $38 to $40. All bottles of wine around $80. It’s a very expensive family dinner which is a shame as we won’t be returning.

My main course which was cheese wrapped in pastry and deep fried. The whole thing was so salty and greasy I couldn't eat most of it. My wife had a garlic prawn dish with zucchini strips. The prawns were tiny and of poor quality. The price for some very ordinary food and slow service ( I ordered a glass of wine, the even asking twice never appeared) was terrible. I will never go back. Awful restaurant.

The food was good and well presented the service was ok. However the ambient temperature inside restaurant was way too hot again. The aircon units are not powerful enough to cope. Several tables and staff were fanning themselves with menus to try and keep cool. We ate and left for another venue as quickly as we could

I visited on a Wednesday for lunch. It was my birthday. We were the only people in the restaurant! The hostess was very gracious but my lunch companion and I couldn't help wondering why they wouldn't just cancel our reservation. I would have understood! Anyways, always LOVE this restaurant and am so excited everytime I get to visit. Thanks!

Food was excellent. Service was fantastic. Atmosphere was brilliant. Acoustics does require attention. Drink prices are on the very high end of the market. Shows where the business is targeting their profits.

We had Chefs selection menu. Was amazing food and more than I could eat. The accommodated my Gluten Intolerant issue with no problem at all. Service is fast and courteous. We sat in back room which is much quieter than the front room. Heaters and knee blankets were provided if desired. Overall great dining experience.
