    Cannot be faulted. We were immediately made very welcome by the friendly staff. Complimentary flatbread, olives and dips were provided while the meal was being prepared. The food is freshly cooked in full view of customers and is delicious. Generous portions and good value.

    Came here to grab quick lunch and was led by the reviews. It's unpretentious in terms of decor and ambience.. The restaurant is tucked away in an alley away from the main road. The food was delicious. Portions are large, meat was tender, well marinated and fresh.. The tzatziki and red pepper dips with bread and salad were complimentary..I ordered the lamb kebabs which were so good.. Highly recommend if you like Turkish cuisine and want fresh well flavoured food. Will visit again when down in Brighton.
