Dem Turkish Mezze & Grill Restaurant

We ordered a couple of mezzes and the quality of the food was very good and authentic. The bread could have been a bit softer/fresher/hotter for my liking. The waitresses/waiters were very kind a d attentive. I would go here again and had a nice experience. I enjoyed the Turkish music too (thankfully they didn't turn it too loud for us to hear each other talk). Sitting near the window is better for a slightly quite spot

If you're looking for authentic Turkish cuisine with a great atmosphere, then THIS is the place to be. My friend and I went last night and the food is simply, utterly, delicious! We had the hummus and a greek salad to start. The bread with the hummus was chargrilled and had meat dripping on it- so tasty! We then had one of their unbelievable meat platters which had chicken wings, chicken sheesh, lamb kofta and lamb ribs on a bed of that lovely meat dripping bread and fluffy bulgar wheat and chips on the side. Wow. Marinated to perfection and that charcoal cooked, smokey flavour. Just irresistible. We did not go home hungry! The service was warm, friendly and quick and the place was buzzing with happy eaters. HIGHLY recommended!

First time at Dem - located just off the triangle in Crystal Palace - and wow, this is a great Turkish restaurant. Warm and cosy atmosphere, friendly and attentive service, great portions and good value. The complementary bread was sensational. Really tasty selection of starters and mains - with lots of veggie options. Delicious baklava too. Wouldn’t hesitate to return!

If you order a main dish, it comes with complementary sides and bread. The bread is so delicious that you won’t stop once you start. We were so excited to see such a variety of offerings on the menu, and the staff really take care of you by advising on which menu items go with other dishes. It’s a great restaurant to bring your family, large parties, and celebrations! It’s not uncommon for this place to be completely packed so always make a booking.
