Good Turkish restaurant right next to Barking station. If anything it seems like they rely on the convenience of being in a busy area a bit too much as I donβt see them pushing for that 5th star (over 1000 reviews on here and they average exactly 4.0).
Food was tasty and reasonably priced, decor was pleasant if not inspiring. Itβs a bit annoying they only accept cash, but if that doesnβt work for you they have a free to use ATM inside the restaurant(!) and allow direct bank transfers.
If you found my review or photos helpful, please leave a quick thumbs up π Thank you!
I am completely blown away! π€―
I have eaten at so many of the restaurants around London and Essex that I've lost count. There are generally some good options, some special treasures, but they all leave you wanting more.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is it. This is the one. This is the place you've been looking for. Fancy a holiday in Turkey? Cancel it and come here instead. The level of attention to detail was incredible, the dishes constructed with absolute care, and the freshness... It was fresh alright ππΌ
The staff were incredibly friendly, and very accommodating, and the chefs took every dish to the next level. I had to try it all, I need to come back again and again.
If you're looking for something special, great value for money, and an absolutely incredible taste sensation, an explosion of flavour, a celebration of culture and cuisine, get down here immediately. This is as good as it gets, and it's bloody good at that.
Kinda pricey in comparsion to other restaurants nearby but absolutely tasty! Soft meat and perfectly seasoned. The portions may be a bit too small for some people but for me itβs definitely enough. You can only pay with cash and since weβre from Germany, we didnβt have any pounds with us. The waiter was super friendly and we were able to pay with Euros :)
Would recommend!
Such a great dining experience here. We were greeted with a huge smile and at every point of contact the service was amazing. Itβs right by the station and has a lot of seating. Cute and comfortable decor too with flower walls!
The food was delicious and full of flavour - such good value for how much was served on the plates. The selection of meats was incredible. We got a hot mezze platter and the wood oven sharing plate which fed 2-3 people, though there was so much food that it could definitely feed 4-5 people. We took food home with us and Iβm excited to have some for lunch today!
Cocktails were made with a lot of love. Absolutely divine.
I would definitely come back for birthday meals and family gatherings. The Turkish music in the background gave a really authentic feel too.
Thanks!
Iβve previously tried Wood Ovenβs food when I went out with the Nutters & we really enjoyed it, so I already knew I would love their food.
Everything was flavoursome and cooked perfectly. Their food is undoubtedly very tasty.
On this occasion, whilst the food came out promptly, the service was not great. I did send them feedback privately regarding our visit and they said theyβd take it on board.
We did want to try their Platter but werenβt able to. But the food we did try was delicious!

Amazing food and service. Everything is reasonably priced too. However our table felt a little cold, could benefit in some heater.
This is a little jewel in Barking.
Excellent customer care service, very generous portions for the price.
The ambiance and size of the venue is very adequate for parties.
Food was very tasty, a little too salty on some dishes, that's the reason for 4 stars otherwise it would be a 5.
1 minute away from Barking station and bus stops.
Would definitely be going again to try different dishes.
Delicious Turkish food right outside Barking station. Absolutely HUGE portions; great value for money. Everything was absolutely delicious. All of the meat was so tasty & flavoursome - loved the chicken doner. Lovely cocktails; a great variety of options on the menu.
Great service, food was bought out fast and the restaurant is very clean.
Highly recommend ordering the hot mezze platter and the Wood Oven platter (mixed meat platter) - it says it serves 2-3 people but itβs honestly huge and easily enough for 5 people.
Amazing food and service, really good charcoal flavor and delicious aroma. Generous portions- we ordered tamara and falaffel, the creamy chicken and the lamb, they we're all to die for.
Delicious food, nice people, staff is very friendly. A bit overpriced for barking and they do not accept card payments, but apart from these facts itβs one of the best places of Turkish food
The food was delicious. The wood oven special platter was cooked to perfection and the service was first class.
Top notch Turkish restaurant. We shared three mains: lamb chops, chicken wings, and sea bass fillet. All were cooked to perfection. The highlights amongst the meze starters included the aubergine and the mushrooms.
Service was attentive and efficient without being intrusive.
No photos of the food, as we were focused on eating it! But I did find a moment to snap the decor!
Loved the food- ordered the full platter, the meat was very flavoursome 10/10. Service was also 10/10, they were very friendly, and accommodating. I liked the atmosphere too. Overall, lovely experience, would come back again.
First class, freshly cooked, smoky flavoured grilled meat. Excellent salads and flat bread. The Turkish coffee and delight were the perfect finish to lunch. Staff friendly, attentive and efficient without being intrusive. Head and shoulders above other restaurants I have visited recently.
Very excellent food, great service from waiters, orders come in really quick when dining in and finishing it off with Turkish tea. Great restaurant excellent service , worth coming again for dining Turkish food.
