About Taksim Restaurant Greenwich
On Blackheath Hill in Greenwich, Taksim Restaurant Greenwich is a Turkish restaurant serving meze and barbecue platters in a plain, family-run room. The kitchen makes its lamb and chicken doner in house, alongside chicken shish and adana kofte served with a bulgur garnish, and the halal menu runs to generous portions. Every order comes with bread, dips, pickled salad and Turkish tea at no extra charge, with baklava and rice pudding added as a free dessert. Seating is walk-in, with no reservations taken. The combination of scratch-made doner and the included spread of sides sets the format of a meal here, run by the same family throughout.

“Did a take away order, ordered in store, the little one was hungry so he had chips while we waited for our order. Food was all done to perfection, really good quality cuts of meat. They added in free dessert which was baklava and rice pudding, both delicious.”

“I absolutely love this place! The food is always fresh, delicious, and full of flavour, with so many great options on the menu that there's something for everyone. The restaurant is always spotless, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming every time I visit. What makes Taksim even more special is the family who run it. They are genuinely some of the loveliest people you'll meet, and over time I've become real friends with them. They treat everyone with such kindness and make you feel at home from the moment you walk in. This is honestly a must visit if you're in London. I always look forward to coming back, and I couldn't recommend it more highly.”

“Best customer service ever! The staff is so friendly and generous. I have been coming here for over 4 years now and the consistency in the food and the service standards is mind blowing. What do I really say about the food? I don't think I've had better turkish cuisine anywhere! Truly one of those hidden gems in London.”
