Lezzet Contemporary Turkish Cuisine Customer Reviews

Food: Outstanding  Setting/Decor: Good  Service: Good  Value: Very Good

The food in this restaurant is fantastic. The pizzas are to die for and the lamb is sensational and I am not a lover of lamb. It's only downside is that it is very compact and they squeeze in a lot of tables & chairs. Service was good with the waiter recommending dishes as we hadn't been there before. We will definitely go again.
