An oasis in a food desert
That's 'desert', not 'dessert', by the way.
Easily the best place for a decent meal in the New Cross / Lewisham area.
Try to avoid the tables right by the grill and oven - things get a little warm. For that reason it's always worth booking, even midweek, because it seems to be busy every night.
The wine list is (almost?) exclusively Turkish. Had a stinker of a bottle at the lower end once, but the upper end (only 12-16 anyway) is perfectly pleasant and quaffable.
