Amazing place. Love not just the food but the hospitality too. Fresh salad and meats. Nice atmosphere. I’ve been to all the restaurants in Green lanes and this is clear of them. Highly recommend!
This is an outstanding restaurant. One of the best , if not the best, Turkish cuisine in London. The quality of the food, freshness of ingredients, professionalism of the chef and his team, , size of the portions, snd number of various types of courses in the menu is truly excellent. I have been visiting Durum regularly for the last 20 years and every time I feel excited about the place.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Durum, a Turkish restaurant that truly stands out for its exceptional food and service. From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance set the tone for a memorable meal. The food at Durum is nothing short of amazing. Every dish is crafted with precision and skill, and you can genuinely taste the love and care that goes into the preparation. As a vegetarian, I was thrilled with the variety of options available. Mr. Azo, a staff member who provided outstanding service, took the time to recommend several vegetarian dishes. He even arranged for a special vegetarian falafel wrap with a hint of garlic spice, which was absolutely delicious. Azo’s recommendations didn’t stop there; he suggested some incredible Turkish sweets and tea that were the perfect ending to a wonderful meal. His friendly and humble demeanor made the dining experience even better. He clearly knows the menu well and has a genuine passion for ensuring guests have a great experience. The chef, affectionately referred to as “uncle,” is truly a master of his craft. The dishes he prepares are not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The attention to detail in both the food and service at Durum is commendable. Overall, I absolutely loved my experience at Durum. The food, hospitality, and service were all top-notch. Whether you’re a vegetarian or not, this is a place where you’ll find something to savor. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and delightful Turkish dining experience.
Fantastic and authentic Halal Turkish restaurant in Finchley. Great options on menu which you won't find at many of their competitors, especially the ali nazik and lamb shank stew, which the kids loved. Interior a bit dated but you're not there to eat the walls! Vibe very nice and waiting staff very welcoming and receptive to needs, even on busy weekend evenings. Gave us a choice of tables and high chair for kids and offered us complimentary water to break our fasts. After this came the hot bread, sauce and grilled onions which you don't get everywhere, adding to the uniqueness and authenticity. Grilled platter was amazing and where I asked to swap lamb chop with mixed doner, they were happy to accommodate. Iskender and other items fantastic too and portion sizes very generous so we had to take away what we couldn't finish. Ended with Turkish tea, baklava and Turkish delight on the house and lollipops for kids. Perfect way to sign out. Will recommend and visit again as local to me. Prices competitive/card accepted and happy to pay their service charge which they add on to bill (10%). Toilet facilities nice and clean and if you go after 6.30pm, parking usually very freely available/free to use. See you again soon!
We stumbled upon this gem as the only place open for food at 10pm. We showed up two days in a row! The service was excellent even when we showed up at closing. The food was amazing. My favorite was the lamb and also the hummus. The hot sauce was something to write home about and everything was Seasoned to perfection. We will be back!
