Their service was INCREDIBLE! they were friendly and the food was 10/10.the service and everything was perfect and made my grandpa's birthday really special. They offered to take our pictures for us and the waitress (April) was always checking if we needed anything. 10/10 would recommend

Amazing experience from start to end, even upon entry we were made to feel welcome, showed where to hang coats, advised how many items to order, advised to have Turkish coffee after the meal and not during and we felt we ate just enough and weren't upsold. Great atmosphere, really love the decorations, we had and really recommend the octopus salad and lamb shank, as well the as baklava and Baba ganoush! Amazing to find a great Turkish restaurant in Wales!

We went for a Family meal this evening. The service is absolutely Amazing very friendly and the staff couldn't do enough for us. Before we left they came over with a little penguin ice cream for my daughter that she Absolutely Loved. The food was beautiful all cooked to perfection the lamb ribs were the best I have ever tasted! My older daughter had the salmon that was cooked beautifully and my younger daughter had to chicken shish which was also cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is lovely inside the staff are so welcoming and the detail inside the restaurant is Beautiful highly reccomend of anyone is looking for an authentic Turkish Restaurant. In Wales

Delicious Middle Eastern food. We shared the cold meze platter, two combo kebabs and a halloumi salad between 3 and it was a great amount. Washed down with a lovely efes, highly recommend! The chicken shish/asana was our favourite combo

This restaurant is an outstanding place!! The food here is very delicious and well presented on the plates as shown in the pictures I've uploaded, I've been here multiple times with my family because the food is that good that it makes us want to come back for more!! The design of the restaurant is also very detailed and amazing!! The cave like structure makes the scenery so cozy and warm, I love it!! As well as the staff are very friendly and amicable with everyone!! I personally love everything about this restaurant and I hope that others will feel the same way once they've tried the food and drinks here!!

We had the most wonderful experience at Anatolian Restaurant in Abergavenny. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional—attentive, warm, and welcoming. Semi, in particular, went above and beyond, making us (and our little dog!) feel so special. He even brought a mat, fresh water, and a chunk of chicken just for our pup—what a thoughtful touch! The food was absolutely delicious, easily worth a trip back to Abergavenny just to dine here again. We were treated to complimentary bread with dip and olives to start, which set the tone for an incredible meal. I had the sish chicken with rice and salad, while my partner enjoyed the lamb, both cooked to perfection. We finished with baklavas and Turkish tea—everything was flawless. Anatolian Restaurant is a true gem with outstanding hospitality and mouthwatering food. Highly recommend!

This place… WOW. The overall vibe of the place was amazing and the attention to detail in the decoration is mesmerising. This was my first time here but certainly won’t be the last. The food was bursting with flavour and the presentation was outstanding. Super quick service but they don’t lack on the quality of the food! The amount of options is amazing and they surely have something for everyone! I really can’t get over this place! Everything was spot on; from the friendly and welcoming staff to the mouth watering food! The only word I have is WOW

I am just completely blown away. What an epic, epic experience. Incredible service, mouth watering food, exotic atmosphere. This place has it all.

Bravo guys, you hit the ball out of the park!!!! 10/10 experience that we will never forget. Thank you so much, genuine hospitality like this is so rare yet so needed in this world.
