Came into this unassuming looking place for lunch, it's surrounded by other Turkish restaurants but the recommendation from a friend made this the one to search out. The menu was expansive with a vast selection of grilled meats on offer for mains but one of the starters was the dish to try - lebanese style grilled lamb's liver and it was fantastic, if you ever go here you've got to try them. For mains we tried the classic adana kebab and the unusual lamb ribs, both were superb but the ribs stood out as something little bit different than normal and were so gorgeously succulent. A great complimentary dish of grilled onions in pomegranate syrup was a brilliant accompaniment as were the smokey flavoured grilled spicy breads.
We drank a half decent bottle of red which was ok priced but not as cheap as the food. We came out of here with massive smiles on our faces especially as we'd had Turkish coffee with compliments from the chef sitting behind the grill - who the waiter informed us had voted me man of the day for coming in with two attractive ladies.
Easily the best value for money Turkish I've had in London, not the most refined or formal but we didn't want that. If your faced with choosing from the vast array of Turkish places round Dalston & Stoke Newington simple choice is just come here, it's friendly, cheap and food is a cut above most places.
