About The Fat Turk

The Fat Turk serves traditional Turkish cuisine on Warley Rd in Brentwood, with a dining room that has a skylight and patio tables for outdoor seating. Starters include hummus, sujuk, and bread, while mains range from lamb kofte durum and lamb beti to lamb chops and lamb sis. Kalamar appears alongside a burger that turns up often on the menu, and baklava rounds things out for dessert. Seating comes with table service, and the restaurant takes walk-ins rather than reservations. Parking is available on site.

Customer Review Summary

Lamb draws the most praise, from the lamb beti and lamb kofte durum to tender, juicy lamb chops, though one finds the lamb sis a bit tough. Sujuk, the bread and a shared baklava also earn mentions, and staff are described as warm. Reviewers fault the burger as dry and tasteless and the pasta as bland, and one describes a long wait for the order and higher prices.

    “We had gone for our company Christmas party.the experience was very good and the food was really good. I would not recommend the burgers and the pasta. Both these items felt a bit bland and not something that could be enjoyed. The platter …”

    “I went to Fat Turk for Dinner. Positive points. Nice sitting place, welcoming staff, adequate parking available, clean toilets, good ambiance. Good quantity food. Negative points. Price is towards the higher side. Order took more than 45 minutes. Food was fine not great and not delicious as I was expecting it to be. I will not recommend the burger as it was very dry and didn't have any taste at all.. Other two dishes were better. Not recommended as there are plenty of Turkish restaurant nearby with much nice taste and reasonably priced menu. I was bit disappointed in the end.”

    “Service and ambience were great. Lamb chops tender, juicy and delicious. Lamb sis tasty but a bit tough. Kalamar was yummy. Really liked the bread that came with our food. Bit on the pricey side but worth it.”

    “We visited the Fat Turk on a lazy late Friday afternoon. The place was busy, we were greeted with a smile and shown to our table. The staff are extremely polite, helpful, and very tentative. The service is quick but gives you enough time to have a good conversation (if you know what I mean). The food was very tasty. For our starters we had the Humus (8.5/10), sujuk (10/10), and the bread (10/10).. for our mains we had the lamb kofte durum (8.5/10) and the lamb beti (10/10). All of these hit the spot! For desserts we got a Baklava to share (9/10). So overall it was a great experience and one I would definitely revisit.”
