Mangal 1

The restaurant based is a true open charcoal grill restaurant (ocakbasi) and a world away from the average British kebab house; though it’s down to earth and don’t expect posh décor. Do expect authentic Turkish flavours, amazingly succulent meats, and a great smell as you walk through the door.
