Izgara restaurant

Probably the best Turkish restaurant in North London, we have been going there since they first opened many years ago and it never disappoints. Ersoy and his team are amazing and very professional and passionate about their service and quality of their wonderful authentic Turkish cuisine. We went on New Year’s Eve and Ersoy put on a Gorgeous Belly dancer who entertained everyone and the atmosphere was amazing. We shared an array of mixed starters all super fresh and delicious, then Mixed grills of tender marinated meats cooked to perfection over charcoal, Turkish beers and a couple of bottles of very good Turkish red wine. Service was excellent and the whole evening couldn’t be better! Highly recommend this Restaurant!

We had brilliant evening at Izgara.
Foods were tasty and portion was generous,
atmosphere was cosy
Service was slow in the start but Staffs were very friendly, especially Kiran was superb with his service.
Overall, we highly recommend to anyone who wants to have good  time and delicious Turkish food.

I recently visited a Turkish restaurant in North London and had a mixed experience overall.

The highlight of the meal was definitely the appetizers — both the hot and cold mezza plates were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I would highly recommend starting with those if you visit.

When it came to the main courses, things were a bit more hit-and-miss. The lamb cubes stood out — juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection. Unfortunately, the spicy chicken skewer didn’t hold up; it was dry and lacked flavor. I wouldn’t recommend that dish.

Dessert was another letdown. The sütlaç (Turkish rice pudding) was bland and notably missing its signature touch of cinnamon, which made it feel unfinished. The baklava, while generous in portion, was overly sweet and lacked the balance of flavor you’d expect from a good one.

Overall, it’s a place worth visiting for the starters and maybe the lamb, but I’d skip the desserts and be selective with the mains.

Izgara restaurant in Edgware was our venue for lunch with Mummy's friend, Simone.

The welcome matched the warm ambiance. With a choice of seating types (booths with rectangular table, circular benches around round tables, and smaller standard square tables and chairs, this feels like three restaurants in one!

Mummy and I shared the Mushroom Dolma, whilst Simone had vegetarian Moussaka . Both were good. And, along with the rice and bread brought to the table with accompanying sauces, we felt satisfied.

Service was friendly and attentive without being overloading.

We were comfortable sitting for a while after we had finished eating and were not hassled out.

The waitress was asking all about me, I don’t think she had seen such as sexy teddy bear before. It is also likely that I was the first talking teddy bear to eat there!

Had a lovely Friday evening meal - the atmosphere and interior was really nice. Food was great too 👍🏻☺️

The menu is fully halal, however alcohol is served.
