England, United Kingdom Food Guide: 10 Turkish food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Romford
Reviews on Turkish food in Romford, England, United Kingdom. Romford is a large town in east London, and the administrative centre of the London Borough of Havering. It is located 14.1 miles (22.7 km) northeast of Charing Cross and is one of the major metropolitan centres identified in the London Plan. It was historically a market town in the county of Essex and formed the administrative centre of the liberty of Havering, until it was dissolved in 1892. Good road links and the opening of the railway station in 1839 were key to the development of the town and the economic history of Romford is underpinned by a shift from agriculture to light industry and then to retail and commerce. As part of the suburban growth of London in the 20th century, Romford significantly expanded and increased in population, becoming a municipal borough in 1937 and has formed part of Greater London since 1965. It now forms one of the largest commercial, retail, entertainment and leisure districts outside central London and has a developed night-time economy.

I've eaten here a few times, the most recent being Valentine's Day.The restaurant has a lovely feel with a ceiling full of colourful lanterns.Despite it being a popular evening the service, as ever, was excellent and the food fresh and hot. When you arrive, you receive a bowl of Turkish salad, with Turkish pide (flat bread) which is warm and delicious. For mains we went for the house special for two which includes rice, chicken wings, ribs, loads of different kebab meat (chicken and lamb), and lamb chops - so much we couldn't finish it, so took it time with us!!Will definitely be back.

The restaurant itself has been tastefully refurbed and is very clean and visually very appealing both inside and out. We visited early sunday evening and the server was very efficient and friendly initially although as they got busier they seemed to be struggling to cope maybe they were short staffed? Had to ask three times for coffee ordered.. The lamb shish was nice and tender however at 20 pounds for what was essentially 9 cubes of meat and salad and a timbale of rice i would expect it to be of good quality. All the food was of good quality and served on nice crockery. However the prices for most of the dishes are somewhat high bearing in mind there isnt a lot of actual skill involved. In their execution.. But the meat was good quality as said. Good atmosphere and staff did try hard.

Family meal, 6 adults, 1 child and a baby. No starters ordered, had lovely Turkish bread instead and various shish kebabs and kofte kebabs. Excellent side salads too. Very generous portions and good Efes beer. Loved the fact that you can see dishes prepared and cooked behind glass screens.From the outside you would never grasp how nicely this restaurant is furnished, nor how long and large it is. Friendly efficient service, will definately return regularly. Excellent!

First night in Romford for over a year and my mate recommended heading to Raphael's for a decent meal, I was pleasantly surprised but the nice child free atmosphere, attentive staff and good food. The drinks selections was really good, a nice selection of wines, spirits and beers. These were ordered and served very quickly. Then onto the food, it isn't the best I have eaten but the portions are a decent size and it was pretty tasty. For a night out, this is a good place to go with friends and family as long as you are leaving the kids at home. Kid free evenings are such a good idea and create an ambiance that is just that little more enjoyable.

So I went yesterday and I cut through my chicken cube and found a hair, the restaurant apologised but nothing else was done. Quiet shocking and totally would not record anyone else to go here as thereâs no hygiene. God knows how many hairs there was, no flavour in the lamachun! After finding the hair we was still made to pay, you would of thought the two soft drinks would of been complimentary but no. Stay away the best advice I could give.Dear Barbieessex,Thank you for your review in regards to your recent dining experience at Lara Grill.We would like to express our sincere disappointment to hear of your unsatisfactory experience with us.

A great Turkish restaurant which serves tasty food every time. I visit Veysos regularly and no matter what I order the food is always amazing! The staff are very friendly and helpful and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. Itâs also very good value for money especially when compared to the more popular Turkish restaurants in the area. Definitely recommend.

We were a party of 6 and all food served was beautiful! In the current climate where there are now so many Turkish eateries to chose from the Kervan is our new favourite. Service was good although it did seem that they wind down and close fairly early on bearing in mind it was Saturday night, we were told that we could only have one more drink when having after dinner liquers but this would not stop us returning.Dear Jo G, Thank you for this smashing review. We are very glad to have you on you board!We hope to see you and your guests at Kervan Kitchen again soon! With our utmost thanks, Kervan Kitchen Management
