Customer Review Summary
Reviewers consistently return for the generous platters of grilled meats, with the Turkish tea repeatedly singled out as a highlight, described as perfectly brewed and aromatic at the end of a meal. Several also point to the knafeh as a must-try alongside the platters, and the food overall is repeatedly called fresh and full of flavour. Portions are called generous and staff are described across multiple visits as friendly, warm, and welcoming, with one wheelchair user noting staff helped with the front ramp. Some diners note service slows during busy periods and staff can be hard to flag down, and parking behind the building requires registering the car with staff. One reviewer reports receiving a chicken shawarma wrap that smelled spoiled and was inedible. Long-time customers describe eating there for years, and one family visit closed on the food being "beautifully cooked" with an atmosphere they called warm and welcoming.

“We had a really enjoyable evening at this restaurant. The food was fresh, well-seasoned, and full of authentic Turkish flavours. The Turkish tea at the end of the meal was one of the highlights it was perfectly brewed, aromatic, and a lovely way to finish our visit. The portions were generous, and everything arrived nicely presented. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making us feel comfortable throughout our meal. Service was a little slower than expected during busy periods, which is the only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience with great food, a relaxed atmosphere, and excellent Turkish tea. I'd definitely return and would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Turkish cuisine.”

“Antalya Restaurant offers great food at reasonable prices. It’s in a good location, though parking can be a bit tricky to find, especially if you’re coming from the Coventry Ring Road, as there’s no right turn. There is parking available at the back once you get there. The portions are generous, and the restaurant is spacious and comfortable. The knafeh and platters are definitely a must-try!”
