Food: Although we’re not fans of Turkish and Mediterranean food, we decided to give Tarshish a try. The Crispy Squid was cooked well and had just enough lemon juice. The Bulgur Rice had a kick, and the Chips were delicious. However, the actual mains, (we ordered the Adana Shish and Iskender Kebab) were both a little bit bland, and the Mac and Cheese was not amazing either; not sure why we could taste cinammon with each bite 🤔
Service: It was really busy on the evening we went therefore it took a while to catch the attention of the waiters.

@twopeasfoodies's review of Tarshish Wood Green on Instagram

I'm often asked for recommendation for a celebration meal for a birthday or special occasion and I think @tarshishlondon is a place that's makes a good choice. Located near Wood Green Station and with a car park available, the restaurant has a full halal menu and nice vibe and settings.⠀
⠀
The food is best described as Turkish and very meat heavy menu, with little options if you are a vegan! I had a selection of starters, some classic Turkish dishes and some with a little twist. ⠀
⠀
I got 3 main courses, I decided to get the mix grill,  being objective with just the food, it was just middle of the road in terms of taste. It consisted of chicken and lamb shish with a juicy anada kofeta Kebab, at just under £24 I expected better flavours, especially from the Andana kebab. I actually took most of it home and eat it the next day and surprisingly tasted much better. ⠀
⠀
Lamb saddle £22, is something I don't see much on menus, it was cooked to a perfect medium, but I didn't get much flavour from the lamb. It was meant to have harrisa but I didn't get much from it. ⠀
⠀
A massive let down was the chicken lollipop, a dish that had the makings of something special but just didn't work, the chicken was cooked well, tender and juicy, it just a lacked in the flavour department, very under seasoned and the mushroom sauce lacked any flavour at all. ⠀
⠀
Overall, in my experience, restaurants that have a really good atmosphere and environment tend to have food that doesn't match the standards of the surroundings. This in my opinion is one such place. I'm not saying the food was bad, its just I think the prices are more for the experience rather than food quality.⠀
⠀
So yeah, great for a girly night out or as my wife says a good reason to put fake lashes on. Dark moody lighting, live dj, good service and overall nice atmosphere. ⠀
⠀
The good :⠀
Drinks, vibe, service, atmosphere and desserts⠀
Areas of improvement⠀
Food needs more development for flavour and quality

@halalfoodguy's review of Tarshish Wood Green on Instagram

I was recently invited to @tarshishlondon to try their revamped menu from my last visit a couple of years ago. I could not WAIT & was certainly not disappointed❣️

We ordered the following:
✨ Spicy chicken bao buns
✨ Harissa king prawns w/ wilted spinach
✨ Beef sliders 
✨ Lamb beyti w/ bulgar pilav
✨ Pan fried sea bass
✨ Mac & cheese
✨ Delicious refreshing mocktails 

Each & every item was so satisfyingly tasty 🤤 My only feedback would be that the beef sliders were slightly overdone and not the *melt in your mouth* type of meat I was expecting… perhaps because I’m comparing to pulled beef sliders I have had elsewhere, as opposed to the burger type 🍔

I 100% cannot wait to go back 😍 I’m so gutted that there was no room left for dessert, which I will certainly be eyeing up next time 👀 

The service was excellent with really attentive waiting staff. All of the food served here is حلال. You can dine Al Fresco when the weather is nice & there is a private room available to hire for special events 🥳

Location: Wood Green, North London📍

@halalfoodbae's review of Tarshish Wood Green on Instagram

Asian cuisine at a Turkish restaurant? That's exactly what @tarshishlondon has launched with their new Asian inspired menu, and I have to say, it was darn good.

@tarshishlondon is aesthetically gorgeous and serves contemporary and elegantly presented Turkish cuisine.

Here are the items we tried from the Asian Menu:

PADRON LAMB £10.00
CHICKEN TERIYAKI £9.00
SPICY CHICKEN BAO BUN £10.00

Items from their normal menu:

BEEF SLIDERS £10.50
MIXED GRILL £26.5
LAMB CHOPS £27.00
BAKLAVA £9.00
LEMON & LIME CHEESECAKE £7.00

Their Asian Menu will be updated quite regularly, so I'm excited to see what other new dishes they will add.

My one criticism is that ONLY on this occasion, the service was not as good as what I'm use to when visiting @tarshishlondon. Think we just got unlucky this time round.

Nonetheless, whether you like or dislike Turkish food,  @tarshishlondon is still a good option, especially now that they have a New Asian menu.

Tarshish

Beautiful place 🥰 nice rooftop, gorgeous design. The staffs are all amazing, professional, approachable and friendly. They were very attentive. The food was delicious I enjoyed every bit of it . I definitely recommend this place . The only thing is that it was very high up and load of set of stairs. I don't know if they were a lift I didn't see it nor was it offered so if you aren't good with stairs don't try it .

Went here for my birthday meal . The place looks fantastic can't wait to come back during the summer when the roof comes off. The staff were polite very friendly and food was served very promptly. The drinks were amazing and the deserts was out of this world . Would definitely recommend so much to choose from on the menu

Overrated place although they have good food. Portions are big. If you're looking for something different and a restaurant that stands I’d recommend this one.
My friend and I ordered the same drinks but I got the boring glass and she got the nice one :( service was good

I would not recommend. Too many strange rules. We weren’t allowed to bring flowers upstairs for my friends birthday. Music was too loud. Nothing special about the food and the cocktails were sickeningly sweet. Also service was terrible. Waiters were cold, constantly reaching over you and touching you with plates or knocking things over. There was no water on the table and we had to keep asking. Just basic things were lacking and they expected us to pay nearly £80 service charge? Also no card machines only cash? Huge inconvenience settling the bill. The only thing I’d say is it did look nice there but not nice enough I would ever visit again.

I was really impressed with the venue, service and quality of food.

We were there for a birthday and found the staff to be very accommodating.

Given the retractable roof, I have to say, it's an amazing summer spot, with free parking nearby.
