Absolutely delicious! I’ve never been to a Turkish restaurant before. I’m so pleased that my first experience was the best. The food is incredible! Value for money! I couldn’t finish everything 😂. The staff is very polite and friendly! The restaurant looks brilliant and clean, which is very important. I will definitely go back! Thank you for an amazing experience and great food!

Always a fantastic welcome and amazing food at the Sheesh. Fresh authentic food cooked on a massive BBQ. We've been coming here for many years. It's joint 1st with my favourite indian restaurant. It's a proper hidden gem. The taste and constancy of the food is outstanding. The staff are always brilliant. We get the platter, and add 4 or 5 hot starters on to the order. For this, with a couple of beers on a Monday, night, it's about £40 each. You'll struggle to get better.

The food here is incredible. I could live off the rice alone. When I was there the waiter was very nice. There's a bit of a wait for the food but it's definitely worth it. The decor is so nice too. There's a warm atmosphere too.

It's been easily over 7/8 years now that my wife and I have been regular visitors to the sheesh. The staff and chef always treat us like family and I always feel like i have been treated to something full of flavour and wholesome. Bloody love the sheesh, highly recommend a nice quiet midweek visit...... Oh an the special menu for two is an absolute bargain for meat lovers

From the moment one steps through the threshold of The Sheesh, an intricate dance of sensory delight begins, enveloping patrons in a tapestry of aromatic spices and tantalizing flavors. The ambiance, a seamless fusion of traditional Turkish aesthetics and modern elegance, sets the stage for an unparalleled dining experience. The warm hues of amber and crimson hues intermingle with ornate patterns adorning the walls, exuding an air of refined authenticity. Now, onto the pièce de résistance—the gastronomic offerings. The culinary symphony curated by The Sheesh is an ode to the rich and diverse tapestry of Turkish cuisine. The succulent kebabs, each morsel tender and bursting with a harmonious blend of spices, leave an indelible impression on the palate. The meze platter, an opulent array of vibrant flavors and textures, showcases the culinary prowess of the kitchen, featuring classics like hummus, dolma, and baba ganoush, each more exquisite than the last. Yet, amidst this culinary grandeur, the true gems of The Sheesh reveal themselves in the form of two remarkable waitresses. These two paragons of hospitality effortlessly elevate the dining experience to an ethereal realm. Their impeccable attention to detail, gracious demeanor, and genuine warmth infuse a personal touch, transforming a mere meal into a cherished memory. Whether deftly navigating the menu to cater to diverse palates or offering insightful recommendations, their professionalism is matched only by their innate ability to make patrons feel welcomed and valued. In summary, The Sheesh stands as a bastion of Turkish gastronomy, a veritable haven where flavors transport one to the bustling bazaars of Istanbul. The dedication to culinary excellence paired with the unparalleled service rendered by the exemplary waitresses, cements The Sheesh as a quintessential destination for connoisseurs seeking an authentic and memorable Turkish dining experience.
