    Located on the 'Curry Mile' in Rusholme, not far from the city centre. The staff are friendly and…read morethe food is tasty and very reasonably priced. You get your money's worth for sure and don't go away feeling hungry. My brother ordered a rump steak with a side of chicken wings and chips. I had the tilapia with chips and rice. The fish was soft and well marinated, delicious. The steak was juicy and came with pasta which actually complimented the meat really well. They also offer a variety of condiments and spicy sauces. The menu consists mainly of meat and fish with various sides. They don't serve alcohol and you can't BYOB as it's a halal restaurant adhering to Muslim values. They do offer a range of tasty mocktails though. You'll find this to be the case with most restaurants on the Curry Mile but don't let that put you off, you can always go to a bar afterwards! Well worth a visit.

    For a halal steak house I wasn't feeling greatly optimistic. But I will try anything once…read more On entering it was very low key cafe based but the busyness encouraged me. Taking a seat in a plastic chair I soon discovered there was no alcohol served. I did try a mocktail of sangria and my friend a strawberry daiquiri. As you can imagine the menu consisted of meat and luckily fish, all at a reasonable price. We ordered the ten spicy chicken wings to share,me the tilapia fish and himself something steak like. The cocktails were nicely presented however mine was very Vimtoey. Chicken wings soon followed which were plentiful,the spice on them was good and sized averagely. When the mains landed I was pleasantly surprised. Served on a giant wooden platter I double checked to see I hadn't ordered the baby whale instead. The steak was laid out in the same manner smothered with pasta. The flavours were good, although glancing over at the steak it looked so anemic with out the blood. Dependant on who you are this is a great place. I.e if you are T Total, eat halal meat you will love it.. me however am only just coming to terms on meat eating . The fish was good but usually I try a slither of rare/medium rare steak..but I find meat isn't as succulent or as tasty without the red stuff..also I do enjoy a glass of wine with this kind of food.. Will I be back? No but I will recommend it to some of my friends and it is cheap..and meaty.

    Sometimes, it's the little touches that make a real difference you know? This is one reason I like…read moreAntalya. I must confess that Turkish / Greek food isn't my favourite type, but I do like it for a change now and again. Once you are seated at Antalya and your drinks order has been taken, warm strips of a flat bread will be brought to your table, alone with dishes of olives and pickled peppers (the ones that look like large chillies, but are not spicy as such). These are free, and you can nibble on them as you decide on your order. There are a wide range of hot and cold starters, with my favourite being a 'mezze' selection...a small plate with around 8 or 10 items on it, e.g. hummous, taramasalata, some kind of bean salad, a meatball, stuffed vine leaf, a 'burek' (sort of a cheese samosa) and some other bits. Want some more free bread to mop things up with? Just ask. Main courses consist of a lot of lamb and chicken dishes, with some fish and vegetarian options too. My recommendation is the Iskendar kebab, a dish containing a mixture of meats in a tomatoey sauce, served over pitta bread. If you have room for dessert, the trolley appears to be well stocked with cakes and traditional Turkish baklava...very sweet pastry affairs, sometimes nutty, and dripping with syrup or honey. Too sweet for my tooth, but each to their own. If you decide not to have a dessert, your meal will still be rounded off by a free shot of a fruit liqueur, usually on offer is banana, cherry, strawberry, and possibly one other. Also, a plate of free fruit is served which is great to cleanse the palate, but also great as a free alternative to dessert, if you didn't fancy one of the heavy offerings from the trolley. The staff are attentive without being overbearing, and they are very friendly. One waiter overheard my brother saying how much he liked the apple tea they served there, and he went into the kitchen and came out with a pack of the stuff for him to take home. I don't know if this is a family run restaurant, but it certainly has that feel. When the bill comes, if you've had a couple of drinks then don't expect any change from a 20 if you had a starter and a main course. I never feel cheated when paying the bill here, as I do feel that the little 'extras' add a lot of value to the dining experience. The ambience is relaxed and friendly, great for couples, families or group bookings...a good all-rounder in this respect.

    I really enjoyed the food here, nice authentic turkish cuisine…read more The menu is very comprehensive and the food well cooked. The staff are lovely and very welcoming. There is also a take away with nice kebabs
