Lezzet Turkish Kitchen

One of the best spots in the city centre for a proper sit-down Turkish feast.

01 The Arrival

Situated right on St Mary Street, Lezzet pulls you in with a gorgeous, inviting storefront. Walking inside feels like stepping into a bright, contemporary Mediterranean haven with sleek modern touches and gorgeous lighting.

02 The Food

We had a mixed hot meze platter to start, followed by succulent chicken shish skewers and freshly baked warm flatbreads with house dips. Exquisite presentation with vibrant colours, and the chicken was masterfully charred on the outside while staying impossibly juicy inside, infused with aromatic Mediterranean herbs.

03 The Experience

The servers were exceptionally welcoming and polite, checking in at just the right times and making great menu recommendations with a genuine smile. The atmosphere is warm, cosy and vibrant, with lovely relaxed background music and immaculate cleanliness.

04 Was It Worth It?

Unbeatable value given the high-end quality of the ingredients and the satisfying portion sizes that leave you thoroughly content.

05 The Verdict

Exceptionally flavourful food, a prime central location and warm hospitality - the only downside is that walk-ins during peak evening hours might face a short wait. Foodies who adore authentic Mediterranean spices and grilled meats will adore this place.
