    For special occasions we always make our pilgrimage (Ziyaret) to our favourite Turkish restaurant…read more This time it was for my partners birthday (which one I daren't mention) so a table was booked a few weeks ago because of the pandemic and to make sure. I mentioned, at the time of booking online, of this fact. Huseyin was his usual perfect host with the traditional hand spray before anything. He restricted bookings to 4 tables a night to follow coronavirus precautions. We wondered how they had coped during this pandemic but, as he said, they did take-away as soon as it was allowed. All I can say is, it worked. This fantastic restaurant was still here and thriving, thank goodness. The service hadn't changed, nothing is too much for them. There is NEVER a rush. As for the food, delicious. A bottle of good Turkish red wine takes us back to that Turquoise Coast. With bread and wonderful dips. A yoghurt dip and the other a biting chilli dip that I will have to pinch the recipe. We love it. Chicken kebab with all the trimmings for my partner and the chefs special of Creamy Chicken Guvec for me. Small pieces of slow cooked chicken in the chefs cream sauce with mushrooms, asparagus, onions and peppers. That dish is 'to die for'. So filling though. Finishing off with coffee, medium sweet Turkish for me. As if that wasn't enough, out of the kitchen came a plate of cake, with candle, and ice cream for my partners birthday with a bunch of flowers. Everyone singing Happy birthday. That brought a few tears to her eyes. A wonderful thought, and I must thank you for that, it made the evening special. What made it really special was seeing Gizem, Huseyins wife. That wonderful beaming smile of hers was accentuated by the fact that a new waiter was in the offing in a few months time. So pleased for them but we couldn't give them hugs. They know, so they were virtual. A fab couple. Still the best Turkish restaurant in the area, and in my estimation outside of Turkey. Trust me, if you are in the area, give it a try. You will not be disappointed. Look at the reviews!!!!!

    Great find!…read more Everything was fresh / cooked to order. We enjoyed Hummus, Kisir and Cacik as appetizers. For our main, we had Chicken Shish, Adana Kofte and Grilled King Prawns. Although entree portions were large, we managed to split a Sutlac for dessert. Very tasty. I would definitely recommended as both the service and general experience were incredible. We got to meet and spend a little time with the owners - which was a memorable touch.

    Beyond wonderful service that leaves children smiling and their parents pleased. I judge a place on…read morehow good their moussaka is and theirs is fantastic!!! And that's rare from me. The staff never stop smiling and are very friendly and approachable. The hummus is wonderful and their salads are topped of with pomegranate sauce giving them a pleasant taste. There's subtle traditional music and TV so the men Dont miss their sports to keep them happy. There's a small bar that has traditional Turkish beer efes. And more traditional drinks if your not a beer drinker. They host wonderful parties for special occasions and do take away so you can enjoy it at home too! Overall greatly pleased with my meal and service here and that's rare for me. Recommended best Turkish restaurant in Hertfordshire!!!!

    This was my first ever experience with Turkish food and it was fantastic! Manolya is a lovely…read morerestaurant set back from the main road in Ware. It's a nice sized restaurant with indoor seating only. The dim lighting and candles on the tables made for a very romantic atmosphere. Though olives and bread are provided at no charge, we were feeling piggish and ordered starters. The baby garlic mushrooms are to die for...I could have drank an entire vat of that garlic and cheese sauce! For the main I had the turlu (a mix of roasted veggies and spices) and my husband had the vegetable musakka (a lasagna-esque dish) and both were excellent. I wanted to lick my plate clean afterwards and would have if there weren't so many people sitting near us! Both mains were served with rice and salad and the portions were pretty good-sized. I felt like I was back in America with the exceptional service. Both our waiter and another were constantly at our table asking how everything was and offering to refill our drinks. I have missed good customer service! But, the most impressive part of the evening was the bill--we both had a three-course meal, wine and coffees and it came to only £37.00. I expeced a good deal more for such a nice restaurant and all that food. You're awesome Manolya!
