A nice dinner with friends for a stay over. Third time visiting here and on this occasion the service wasn’t as great and there was also a bit of an argument between a customer and a staff member near us which could have been taken to one side. Food was great but cocktail was 6/10 as the alcohol tasted cheap.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Melis, a Turkish restaurant with a delightful ambiance that truly transports you to Turkey . While the food may not have blown me away, the overall experience was enjoyable.
Let's start with the ambiance. From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The interior design beautifully showcased Turkish culture, with intricate decorations, soft lighting, and comfortable seating arrangements. It was the perfect setting for a relaxed and intimate dining experience.
The service at Malis was impeccable. The staff members were attentive, friendly, and always ready to assist.
Now, let's talk about the food. While it didn't quite reach the heights of greatness, it was still enjoyable. The menu offered a decent variety of Turkish dishes, and the presentation was appealing. Some dishes stood out more than others. The appetizers, such as the hummus were flavorful and well-prepared. For main course we ordered sharing platter and prawn curry… we like the prawn and platter was decent, however didn't have that wow factor I was hoping for. The flavors were pleasant but lacked the boldness and complexity I've experienced in other Turkish restaurants.
While the food may not have blown me away, I would still recommend Melis for a charming evening out or a casual gathering with friends.
Food was nice, restaurant was clean and had good vibe, staff were very accomodating and helpful.
The food however was pricey! Been to many Turkish places where we've been offered complimentary Turkish Tea etc especially when having spent over £130 - not here.
Only 4 stars because of price.. Overall nice experiance.
