Turkuoise Forest Gate

An impromptu visit to Turquoise with work colleagues reminded me why I used to be a regular here. We opted for the chef’s special, a generous spread designed for four that not only satisfied everyone at the table but also left us with enough to take home. The drinks menu impressed, with the piña colada standing out as a highlight. While the cold meze was enjoyable though not the best I’ve had, the overall experience was excellent. My colleagues thoroughly enjoyed the meal, and the chilli sauce in particular deserves special praise—easily a 10/10. The service was good however we had to wave the waitress few times for attention and had to ask for more bread. Overall good choice for a last minute decision.

We were out shopping on Green Street on a Sunday and decided to stop for a bite to eat. After a quick Google search, this place came up with good reviews, and since Turkish food is one of our favourites, we decided to give it a try. The restaurant is situated more towards the top end of Green Street (Romford Road side), which was nice as it felt a little away from the hustle and bustle of the busier stretch. We arrived for an early lunch and were the first customers, which meant we had our pick of seating. We were warmly greeted and the service throughout was friendly and attentive. We ordered the mixed grill, which came with a generous selection of meats, chicken, wings, mixed doner, served with rice and naan. Alongside the main dish, we were given the traditional accompaniments of hummus, tzatziki, salad, and sauce dips. The portion size were good, the food was well cooked, and everything was full of flavour. To finish, we had Turkish tea, which was nicely presented. The food was reasonably priced compared to other Turkish restaurants we’ve visited. The restaurant itself was very clean, with tidy bathrooms and even baby changing facilities, which makes it a good choice for families. Overall, it was a really good experience, and we would happily return the next time we’re in the area.

Service was good, they are really friendly. I've tried couple of items , all i can say food was decent not bad nor exceptional.
