  “Myself and my partner are both in the hospitality industry and have very little time to get out and enjoy our local independent restaurants, so this evening we took the chance and Agora has been on my go to list for a while. The food was delicious and plentiful and we were fortunate enough to take home what we couldn’t manage however, and it pains me to say this but the service was awful, and I do not say that lightly but had there been a service charge added we would have asked for it to be removed. We were “greeted” with slight despair, we were not made to feel welcome at all, we were not asked once of our food was ok, I had to go in search of cutlery and help myself from the cutlery tray before we could eat. We waited so long for someone to come to our table in the end we went in search of someone to pay and left. The restaurant is beautiful and the food is lovely but the customer service needs some attention.”

  “Food was really nice, didn’t take long to arrive at the table everything tasted fresh and warm would have been a five star review but service lacked at the end when we didn’t get offered a desert menu and instead we received the bill when we didn’t ask for it.”

  “Agora has a genuine warm and authentic aura. You could be forgive for thinking you are in the Mediterranean! The food is delicious. You can see it being cooked infront of you and it really adds a certain freash aspect to dinner. The food is priced fairly for the quality and size. I got the mixed grill and it was delicious. The staff are friendly and hard working. Would happily go again.”

  “What a wonderful experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. A big thank you to the chef for the outstanding quality and authentic taste. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I will definitely be coming back!”

  “We got the family mezze option for all of us to share. The staff were nice enough to give our friend a birthday cake on the house and let us stay till the last moment without kicking us out. We really appreciate this. Thank you! One small improvement could be some waiting staff being more approachable/happy and for them to fill water more often as they were never available.”

  “Unfortunate mix experience at Agora. Greeted by very rude hostesses who didn’t believe we had a reservation despite email confirmation. Then put us in a very undesirable table despite plenty of others being opened and stating they were reserved. Well we had a reservation! Tables that were free were available during our meal too. Then had to ask for drinks each time we needed one. And from finishing meal to having to ask for check, waited 30 minutes with no one offering dessert or coffee. Food arrived very timely due to hard working grill person and cooks. Food was simply outstanding. Authentic as we have visited Turkey. Had mezze, lamb shish kebab and vegetarian moussaka. All food was fresh, tasty and delicious. ***************************************** Updating review as the restaurant owner was nice enough to respond, simply: - my name is Joseph, not Joshua and you should try and take feedback to improve experience of customers, not be defensive. - hostess has an attitude. Read your other reviews, I am not the first one to state so. - two tables of two were available shortly after we sat at the “chefs table”, but hostess said nothing was available. She also said a group of tables were all taken, but group came in and table of two was not used until later - I have sat at chefs tables, what you offer is not a chefs table. Interesting to watch things being cooked if you don’t mind smelling like smoke and meat - couple came in before us and elected to wait for over an hour and come back rather than eating at “chefs table” - my wife was not rude at all during meal. If your feel having to constantly flat staff for drinks or for bill after waiting 30 mins when we finished our meal is rude, than that’s the issue - I will post a picture of email. It was not rude at all.”

  “Maybe it was a poor choice of food, but as the saying goes “you are as good as your worst item on the menu”. Everything was nice but it was missing the wow factor, I don’t think it is a bad place but certainly not outstanding, it might not be the first place to recommend. I will go again and give it another try in the future, but on first try it didn’t win me, which is a shame cos for cooking on charcoal it should not take much. 4 stars from me, it is good but nothing to call home for”

  “First time here for dinner. Booked via email quick reply to confirm time. Nice booth at front. Had the hummus and tzatziki with bread to start. Main portions and food were lush. Tiramisu and fudge cake with coffee for desert. Would go again. My kids loved the food. Really don’t need a starter with the main portion sizes. Priced a big higher than our normal family meals. But worth it.”
