Cielo Prlr Colindale

Another Turkish restaurant trying to be upmarket and sophisticated Went here for my daughters birthday restaurant is very nice and well setup. We were shown to our table and given the menu which has the same has most Turkish restaurants but also has steaks and a good fish selection. I ordered the mix shish, wife and oldest daughter ordered chicken with mash and youngest ordered beef dish. We also ordered drinks and a starter. Drinks came but they only brought three glasses i told the waiter and she said they will bring another, 20 minutes later still no glass for the wife. A starter is suppose to come before your mains that is the whole point of a starter, well guess what the starter came with the main meals i brought that up with the waiter and she said they are very busy that is why it did not come. Ok to the food, very poor quality food lacked taste and was not appealing at all, they should provide some sort of sauces and at least salt and pepper but nothing. The waiting staff have very little customer service skills for the price you are paying to eat there its not worth it at all. Unless you have money to burn i would not recommended this place at all and the other thing parking is a nightmare everywhere it ia double yellow lines. So take your money elsewhere don't waste your time here

I loooove them! Thr staff are amazing! Honestly they are the best. I took my mum and 2 auntie out for a meal and it was the perfect venue. Classy and trendy. The jazz music in background was the perfect touch, maybe because I love the sound of the saxophone. 😊 but lighting was perfect too. The food was deliciou. I particularly loved the prawns we had for starters, but my aunties liked the goats cheese and mushroom. Lamb shank was just perfect too!

I visited on 26th August which was a Wednesday with a friend. Our meal was eligible for the help out to eat out scheme. What We We ordered DRINKS Watermelon Daiquiri- couldn't taste Watermelon but lovely Rum cocktail-lovely Starters: Prawns - very tasty, and would recommend Seafood kofte - edible but I wouldn't recommend it. MAIN Stuffed seabass with mushrooms and spinach£23- tasty but extremely small. Lamb shank£16 tasty and filling. We arrived and there was one receptionist dealing with a telephone enquiry. We had to wait to be seated for about 6 to 10 mins for her to finish. There were other staff around who could have helped but didn't. I had the seabass and had asked the waitress before ordering if it came as a full meal or if I had to order sides. She informed me that it came with vegetables so there was no need to order sides. I have included a picture of what I was actually served, which was literally a small fillet stuffed with a small amount of mushrooms and spinach with an orange sauce . To top it off, it was also served on a chipped plate. I was left very hungry and underwhelmed. When I queried where the rest of my meal was, the waitress replied that the vegetables were inside the fish??! The price difference between the lamb shank and the seabass was disproportionate as the lamb was 5 times the size but cost £7 less. We asked for the bill and the waitress asked if everything was OK. My friend was satisfied with her lamb and I expressed my dissatisfaction with my meal. The waitress apologised and went to speak with her supervisor and we saw her explaining the situation to him. This waitress never returned with the bill or any sort of explanation and the supervisor did not speak to us either. We got fed up and asked someone else for the bill , paid and left to go to the shisha lounge next door (where we also had an issue with things added to our bill that we had not ordered and also had to visit the cash point as they only accept cash -not very covid safe). By the time we left, we had been served by 4 different people. There are no covid safety measures in place either. Tables are not sat 1m apart. Plus points: #The staff were generally pleasant and friendly. #The cocktails, prawns and mains were tasty. Needless to say, I will not be returning, and I wouldn't advise anyone else to visit. The management of this place is obismal. CERTAINLY NOT FINE DINING.
