4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2013 NEW

went on a Tuesday night, when you would expect things to be a little slower, but it was not to be. Place was absolutely packed and as soon as a table was available more people came. Staff were very good and handled it in their stride. We had the platter which was a good exposure to the menu and delicious.

We ate here for the first time last night, and I was hugely impressed! We shared the sublime platter for two, a garlic pide and I had the chocolate macadamia tart for dessert. All the food was fresh, good quality and served fast! I really enjoyed the Turkish lemonade too, yum! The staff were lovely without being over the top,... More

I have been twice in the last month and now they're going to have a regular customer. I've watched my family and friends twice order something all different and we've all had a bite from each other's plates and each and everything is cooked to perfection. I cannot highly rate this restaurant enough. Collectively our tables had been to Caravanserai... More

I found this place quite disappointing. The food was really ordinary. Shame, because the place looks great, but the food did not live up to the decor.

The atmosphere is somehow always exciting here, and the food delicious. Suitable for kids, nana, families and work functions!

I went here with my wife with a gathering of people. We had a customised banquet meal that was pre-ordered. It wasnt cheap ($35p/h) but was very enjoyable. When the entree platters came out I was a little worried. The quantities were quite small. At that time, I was thinking $35 for this!? All my worried were gone when platter... More

Lovely restaurant with cosy and inviting decor. Food is beautiful. We ordered a platter to share for two and we were not disappointed. Also deserts are to die for. Love the fact that it is byo and across the road from a great bottle shop. Can't wait to go there again.

The food is extremely tastey and generous serves. This is the best Turkish I have eaten around Brisbane in recent decades. They also cater for large groups without any problems.

This restaurant is in a great little spot in Brisbane, there's atmosphere, views, eclectic charm and the food is delicious. The banquets are great value and you get to try lots of different dishes. The dips and bread are soooo good. And if you have a sweet tooth, the turkish lemonade is yummy as is the baklava and turkish delight.... More
