DATE 26 March, 2012
ADDRESS 108 Smith St
SERVICE Friendly, prompt, relaxed and happy to explain the menu.
AMBIANCE Traditional Turkish music, seats and low tables, with Bedouin decor.
FOOD Enormous servings. All char-grilled, with choices of lamb, chicken, fish and calamari. Vegetarian option was delicious. Dips and bread all varied and fresh. Banquet covers everything on the a la carte menu – a good option for large groups but not suitable for intimate dining unless you’ve got a big appetite!
DRINKS Good selection of traditional teas and coffees. Reasonable wine list.
EXTRAS Menu is adequate and clear. The venue accepts vouchers, and they’re social media savvy. Banquet is great value for the quantity of food.
SURPRISES Great atmosphere, especially the back room, where you can easily forget you’re in Melbourne.
RECOMMENDATION Suitable for fun group dinners. Best for quantity rather than overall quality.
