They got food and drinks out quickly, worked well as a team throughout our visit, and each dish was beautifully prepared. The atmosphere had us wanting to stay for hours; the decor was eye-catching from every view and they offered live entertainment! They had a live singer the night we were there; he matched the overall vibe of the restaurant and wasn't overbearing during our dinner. I would love to come back soon:)

This restaurant has recently had a refurb and the interior looks even more stunning. Only problem…read morenow is that due to changing local council regulations, it's nigh on impossible to park near the restaurant. Saying that, there are a few "official" parking spots in front of the restaurant and if you get lucky enough, you can go in and treat yourself to the usual high standard of Turkish cuisine. Prices seem to have edged up slightly but they still represent excellent value for money. My advice is that, if you are going for lunch, skip breakfast, if you are going for dinner, skip both breakfast and lunch because the portion sizes are very generous. About £20 pp inc VAT ex service, without booze.

My spicy lamb pot was very tasty, but not much lamb, which was a little tough, for the £21.95 price. The reason I won't go back instead of not doing so in a hurry is that they charged my wife £1.95 for a cup of hot water. In fairness, the menu shows "hot water lemon" at £2.45, but I'd never expect to see hot water on the drinks menu. When I questioned it, they said "we have to use our kettle and wash the cup." So, they got £1.95 for water and lost customers (we go there with others, so it's not just our custom that they've lost). It's a pettiness that I would strongly advise all restaurants against adopting.

I've walked by Gezi Park hundreds of times over the last 9 months, due to its prime position on…read moreWanstead High Street. I admit, the façade - with its DIY-like wooden patio out front - had put me off, so out of place it seemed to the numerous other upscale eateries along the strip. I admit again, I figured this place would be serving meat of questionable origin alongside some wilted iceberg and an anaemic-looking tomato slice. But after coming back from a trip to Cyprus, I was craving some hummus and thought I'd give it a go. How wrong I had been. The food was, to put it simply, outstanding. The homemade bread that came out with some dips was so moreish that I had to stop myself from eating it all, in preparation for the main event. I definitely would have eaten it all had the delectable meatball meze not appeared, followed by the main course shortly thereafter. I picked something from the menu that I'd never heard of before. What I got were little pita parcels of tender lamb, atop thick yogurt, drizzled in chili oil. It. was. delicious. Even the accompanying rice on the side was so well seasoned and buttered that I couldn't resist it. Normally, I'd leave those token carbs on the plate, but I scoffed them with abandon. My husband ordered a chicken stew of some variety, and it arrived piping hot. When he first tasted it, he had food envy - as my meal was so insanely good - but as soon as it cooled down a bit, the chicken stew was every bit as tasty as my perfect lamb parcels. The server offered us dessert, but we were far too full for that. Instead, she brought the bill along with some baklava-like Turkish pastries, gratis. All in all, one of the best meals we've ever had on the high street, and even in all of Wanstead. This one is definitely a case of not reading a book by its cover.

But as I usually always order takeaway I have found that more than half these times there are issues with my orders. Usually its just a forgotten dish like bread or rice, which I can live with. But today I was waiting in the restaurant for more than 10 mins while my food was sitting on a table near the kitchen with no one checking to see if it was mine. When I eventually got it and asked why no one checked the food, a waiter told me he didn't take the order on the phone and so it wasn't his fault. I said that's unprofessional as they're all from the same establishment, but she said he didn't care and blamed it on the chefs. When I got home my food was cold and the portions were small.
