The waitress was so lovely and made our experience an amazing one. She was working on her own and it was quite busy, but she looked after everyone so well and gave us great service regardless of waiting so many tables at once. The food was delicious and came out so quickly too. Was a great dinner! Thank you so much!

Overall a good experience with very tasty food - the whole menu was amazing! Loved the atmosphere and deck out of the place, very authentic. The Moroccan Mess dessert was beautifully presented and a very generous serve, and the baklava just perfect, not too sweet. Only gripe was the service from one of the waitresses - not that friendly and a little pushy. The other though was sweet, patient and happy to answer any questions we had about the menu.

The restaurant was not that busy by the time we went in for 8pm dinner, but it didn’t bother us - the service was fantastic, accommodating all dietary requirements, and the food was all delicious and good value for money. I would recommend to friends!

First time here. Waited awhile to be seated, and service was slow at the start as there was only one person working upstairs at the start, which was disappointing. Once drinks and food ordered, everything came out soon afterwards. Once more staff arrived, service improved. Food was nice with the Turkish influence. Highly recommend the tasty mezze plates and slow cooked lamb. Warning that their Turkish Pizzas are huge! Good servings, although the French fries were disappointing.

Booked a table for four & sat out on the balcony. Tried about 7 mezzo dishes - all fantastic & full of flavour. Loved the roast potatoes, lamb kebab & halloumi particularly. Friendly service & used entertainment book for 25% off. Will return.

We went early on a Friday night, as we expected it to get busy. However, the night we went was not a busy one. This meant that the restaurant was not full and so waiting times small and noise levels negligible. The food and atmosphere of the venue is terrific. They have been in new venue for 2 years now and the warehouse feel, high ceilings and decor is great. There is a fabulous upstairs area for casual dining with a view over the water and pier. Watching the sun set and the Spirit of Tasmania leave was lovely. Definitely want to return to try the Turkish pizzas and sit upstairs

Had the Mezze for 2 with a couple of extra Mezze dishes and that was enough for the 2 of us. Food was delicious and we will definitely be returning. We sat upstairs with awesome views over the bay. We didn't sit out on the balcony but it is a lovely spot on a warm evening. Also enjoyed the Crocus Spritz cocktail - very refreshing.
