Koz Mediterranean Restaurant

Finally visited this Turkish/​Med restaurant after passing it by quite a few times. Upon entering my girlfriend and I were amazed by the décor, it is much more contemporary styled compared to other Turkish restaurants I have visited. I would say it is more of a smart casual affair than I was expecting.
The food prices are still competitive and what you expect from this cuisine with most grilled meats and fish coming in just north of £10. Starters sit around the £5 mark. I ordered the simple lamb shish, my girlfriend the iskinder kebab (lamb baked in a tagine with yoghurt). For starters we shared hummus and fried white bait. The white bait was excellent with a real fresh zing, the hummus lovely and rich with the free bread and olives served with your meal. The lamb was delicious in both the mains and they were very generous portions — we had to ask for a doggy bag to take home.
If I was to be very picky, I would have preferred the pitta bread to be a little less ‘toasty’. I like the warmed breads from Turkish restaurants which have been grilled with the fat of the meats!
We didn’t need a reservation for a Saturday night when we arrived before 8pm. Though it was very full all evening. I would definitely return.
