Customer Review Summary

Reviewers consistently point to the yaprak sarma and hummus starters as a standout, with several diners calling the flavors authentic to Turkey, and the İzmir köfte and lamb chops drawing similar praise for tasting genuinely traditional. Close behind, the tavuk shish and calamari starter earn mentions for being juicy and freshly cooked, and multiple reviewers highlight generous portions and friendly, accommodating staff, including one account of the kitchen handling coeliac, gluten free, and dairy free needs. A few notes temper the praise: one diner found the £30 mixed grill's portion sizes disappointing given the price, another felt the food was "decent enough" but lacking a "kick," and beer pricing at £5.50 for a small bottle drew a complaint. Several reviewers mention the restaurant gets busy on evenings and advise booking ahead, with one recalling staff making room for their group despite a fully booked night.

    “A fantastic restaurant, great food and generous portion sizes. Highly recommended and will visit again next time I'm in the area. If you're thinking of visiting at a popular evening time I suggest you book a table. We arrived early about 530pm and within in an hour all tables were full. Definitely a restaurant to visit if you're in Berwick upon Tweed.”

    “Mavi is the best Turkish restaurant I've been to in the UK! The dishes were extremely delicious. Especially, yaprak sarma was just like the ones I had in Turkey, the taste was exactly the same. Eating traditional yaprak sarma in the UK made me really happy. It made my day. Alongside yaprak sarma, I ordered humus, which also brought me to Turkey with its great taste. So, even before my main dish, the starters already put me into shape of enjoying authentic Turkish cuisine in Berwick. After the starters, my İzmir köfte came. It was served with rice, and with this combination I was able to enjoy the classic Turkish meatball experience in Berwick. The meatballs were great. I enjoyed every bite. I also ate baklava and it was also just like the baklavas in Turkey. Honestly, I had an amazing time at Mavi! Her şey için teşekkürler Suat Bey, size ve çalışanlara ilgileri için çok teşekkür ediyorum!”

    “Very high quality food with a decent dining area. Will have to say that portion sizes are not great, got the mixed grill shown in the picture for £30, expecting atleast a bit more rice and a piece or two more chicken.”
  • Thomas Brown
    “Met friends here for lunch. Good choices on the menu for food and drink. Good service from friendly staff. No complaints from anyone on my table regarding the food, all had empty plates. Food was outstanding, felt fresh and full of flavour. Really enjoyed the salmon saute dish followed by sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Nice atmosphere overall. Will return when in the area again. Advisable to book as the restaurant, especially in the evening can get quite busy.”
