Harem Turkish Restaurant - Kingston

Disappointing. This place use to be great years ago, now it has gone down hill. The staff were great, attentive and friendly. The bread and dips were very nice, and the zucchini balls were good the next day once heated - they came to the table a mix of barely warm and cold. The mains were very disappointing. First off, one main was brought to the table. It then took 10 minutes for all but one of the remaining mains to be served, and another 10 minutes for the last main to come. The mains were just plain white rice, a sad handful of salad and a couple of pieces of meat. For the price you would expect some spices added to the rice - even a more traditional rice, more meat and better salad. The place is also looking old and run down - from the now black carpet on the stairs to the bathroom door without a lock. A refresh of the dining area and bathrooms would definitely spruce the place up nicely.

Food was good. Wait staff were friendly and informative. Service was a little slow but nothing major. There was almost a homely feel to it. Overall very good.

Good eating really good value sweet personal terrible decoration (but who cares about the decor when eating is so good

Was here a few times. eating is delicious, but not much of it (especially if they have a banquet). the service is pretty bad.

The food was delicious. We opted for the Gluten Free banquet, so the variety was limited and the portions were smaller than a typical banquet. Despite the size, we all left satisfied and not overly full, which was a positive outcome.
