    First visit with friends. The food was amazing & there was a great atmosphere. Live singer & fire eating belly dancer. Staff were so attentive & never had to wait long for a drink. To top it off, the bill was so reasonable, which was really refreshing as the cost of living is so high now. I will definitely be back to try something different on the menu.

    Amazing friendly service and food coming out at expected time. Made children very welcome. The lamb shish was so tender and all the meat was cooked to perfection. We ordered the Bank platter which would feed adults easily.However the salad was tiny that came with the platter. The only thing I can criticise

    First time here, was recommended by a friend as I wanted somewhere with some entertainment and this came highly recommended. It didn’t disappoint, all staff were happy, smiley & engaging. Our lovely waitress for the evening was called Valerie, big up to her!I am a veggie and I am often left disappointed at the lack of flavour when I go out for a meal, I opted for the mushroom casserole and my goodness it was wonderful - surpassed all my expectations.Everyone of us loved our food, generous portions as well.The singer was great, just my cup of tea, we had a fab night singing and dancing. Highly recommend for a fun night out and will be coming back. ️ ️ ️️️

    Had dinner with friends last evening. Booked table originally for , later gave them a call to make it with no issues whatsoever. Polite and very attentive service. Had the cold and hot mezes- nice variety. Everyone was pleased with their main food choices- both vegetarian and meat, complications to the chefs. Did not tried their coctails, had wine instead, but looked very different and interesting. Did not have baklava available on the night, slightly disappointing. Did try the rice pudding and it was Will be back soon for sure.
