Meze House, Tring

I've been to this restaurant a few times, i highly recommend it. The choice of food and atmosphere is great.

It's a great alternative to the Akeman, prezzo and the various curry houses Tring has, it's nice to have a different food option in Tring.

The atmosphere is always buzzing if you go around 9pm at weekends, they sometimes have a belly dancer which livens things up.

The chicken wing dish is great with the hot bread and Efas larger.

My one and only issue was when we were there a couple of weeks ago for a birthday (12 of us) when the side salads came out the lettuce was riddled with holes, the leaves were limp and had clearly been nibbled by an insect or two. It let down an otherwise perfect meal. We spoke to the waitress who's reply was 'it's supposed to be like that'? my friend who was with us (a head chef) explained it was not and it's a insect issue, we were then told the chef had intentionally put the holes in it? yes, thats right you did not misread!!

We literally had to laugh it off although we didn't eat the leaves, it's a shame as the food was brilliant and they could have easily swapped for a fresh batch at little expense when a group of 12 were spending £300 +. I know a few of the group were not at all impressed with the response and so thats a shame as a simple fix has turned off future custom.

That said, i still recommend the place, yes the chef should have checked before sending it out and yes the waitress should have resolved it without making up a story but apart from that it was a great evening and the food was lovely.

Its about time a Tring eatery combined great food with real service.Not only do you always get a smile from Okan and his team but you know that the food is fresh and full of goodness.

The variety of dishes makes it an ideal place for even the most difficult customers and the Vegetarian offering is a good as the sumptuous meat and fish dishes. Having been part of the catering world for many years, we really appreciate the simple, no fuss attitude of the staff and the willingness to serve time after time with the same drive to please.

There is always something extra free of charge and it is difficult to leave without a dessert and excellent Tea of coffee passing your lips.

The only advice we would give is to book early to avaoid disspointment, especially if you like a good belly dance.

Me and my girlfriend went on opening night to Meze House and the food was absolutely stunning. The restaurant was great, the wine matched the food perfectly and they staff couldn't do enough for us.

We talked about how good the food was and so much so we went back within two weeks. The food was actually better in my opinion, I did not think it would have been possible. We had something different and also a little the same and it exceeded our expectations. We both had starters, mains, a dessert to share and also a bottle of wine and we paid under £50, I would happily have paid double for the quality of food/wine/service we got.

I can not recommend this place enough. I've had a few friends who have also gone on our recommendations and they can not talk it up enough. I will be back in there again very soon (hopefully this weekend) and already I'm looking forward to it.

decent atmosphere, friendly helpful staff, freshly cooked food that was very tasty, made for a good evening out. As this only opened recently its clean well presented, including the facilities. Only slight negative is choice of deserts, but then it's not a strong point of Turkish cuisine anyway. Very good night out with good food. Approx £20-£25 per head

This was the first time I have been to this restaurant and we visited on a Saturday night. It is fairly new, glad I didn't leave booking too late as they seem to be popular and it was full throughout the night. The staff were friendly from the moment we arrived at the door and they were nicely attentive. We were able to place our orders at our own pace and did not feel rushed or pressured to order throughout our stay. The service was spot on, the food was delicious and we did not have to wait long for our orders to be served. The menu has a great range of starters and the food was really tasty. Everyone from our group was happy with the food. The nights entertainmetn included a belly dancer and along with the staff they created a great atmosphere where guests were invited to dance and everybody else in the restaurant accompanied by clapping along, overall it was great fun. The fruits served at the end of the night had a very plesant suprise and it was a great way to end the night - I will not spoil this for you by writing about it here. I would very highly recommend this restaurant. We travelled about 45 mins to get to it but it was well worth it and I will be sure to visit it again. Thank you to all the staff at Meze House for looking after us and we hope to see you again soon.

Five of us ate at the Meze House to celebrate Father's Day. The food was fantastic - really task fresh meats and sides, we had the set deal for 4 and 1 extra then shared everything it was really very good.

The service was also first class, the waiters were friendly and attentive but not intrusive.

The restaurant has only opened recently but was already fully booked when we tried to go back on Friday evening – our fault we will book next time.
