Can be long. but got wein while we were in wait. eating was authentic and they have some great sampler dishes if they want to try a lot. desserts weren't as good as the escapes. presentation was also beautiful.

Situated in one of the nicest places to eat, for lunch and well as dinner, so far has a lot going for it just because it's the corner restaurant there. I sat outside when I went there for dinner and it's really nice, with heaters outside so it doesn't get too chilly in the winters. The food itself however was in my opinion mediocre, maybe it was just my dish, because the people I was with seemed to be very appreciative of theirs. In my humble opinion, it's a place you go to more for the atmosphere and location than the food itself. I wouldn't make the trip out for it.

Sofia Restaurant is located in St. Christophers Place and a few metres from Oxford Street. The venue offers you a selection of different turkish meals. From the main meal what I have been tried and definetely recommend are: Juicy chicken fillet, Chargrilled Chicken Fillet or the Salmon Fillet. The prices of the main dishesh are around £11-18. For dessert I can advice to order the Ottoman Kadayif. £5) The service we received there was very kind and postive.

A good restaurant. Excellent food. Great location. I placed several orders today, including Turkish tea. When the barman brought the tea, I made a quick comment about the amount of tea in the pot. He didn’t like my remark and responded quite aggressively. I politely repeated my comment, thinking he might have misunderstood me, but he raised his voice again. Thanks to the restaurant manager who handled the situation very professionally. Food: 5 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4 Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £40–50

Me and my friends were very badly treated in this restaurant 17/09/2022 then dinner was served, we ate we went to order dessert the waitress looked like she didn't want to serve us she made an angry face every time we ordered something. I ordered a creme brule and they brought me seriously cold iced brule! I asked to change it, they brought me the same reheated one, yes they did! I asked for napkins 3 times for the waitress who was not happy to serve me and my friend, she brought the bill and I still hadn't ordered, I went to pay and asked to withdraw the service charge, then she asked why not pay the service charge ! i didnt want to talk i was already very upset about the embarrassing situation she then asked another waitress who served us at the beginning to talk to us this waitress insisted several times to pay it was ridiculous, there were two guys sitting at the next table who didn't want to pay the service charge and weren't disrespectful to them like they were to us, in short, bad service, my friend and i two women, one black and one white, who don't speak english very well but it was clear that they were not happy with our presence there, I do not recommend this restaurant I had a crying fit when I returned home because I felt very humiliated, we left the house to enjoy a pleasant evening and unfortunately it was very bad because of prejudice.
