    Lezzet Turkish Restaurant - Lamb chops, served with rice and a sort of turkish salsa

    This was the first place we ate after moving to the neighbourhood, and we've been back three times…read moresince - each time was excellent. Friendly, always a mix of customers and a bit fancy without feeling at all snobby. Every meat dish is top notch, standouts are the lamb chops and the tif tif tandir, but we also had a lovely creamy chicken dish the first time whose name I can't remember. Have not had any cocktails but the raki aniseed liqueur comes with fruit and cheese, which was fun. The dessert figs were not what I expected but were amazing. Finally, absolutely recommend for a birthday, when they bring the cake they drop the lights and play what I assume is a Turkish birthday song (super catchy tune) and in place of a candle is a really intense sparkler. Good stuff.

    Delicious Turkish food with a bustling, festive vibe. Lots of people seem to come to celebrate…read morebirthdays here, and it gets pretty loud inside. Attentive servers skillfully handled our large party. My Patlican Ezme (basically baba ganoush - aubergine puree) was wonderful with Turkish bread and made a great starter. The mixed skewer isn't the cheapest, at £16, but the meat was juicy and the portion was large. I was absolutely stuffed by the end of the meal. Everything was beautifully presented, it seemed up a notch from your average Turkish restaurant in terms of the way the food appeared. And they say, first you taste with your eyes! Would definitely return. Convenient for Metro, and they have a little car park in the back.
