    The restaurant is amazing and very cosy. the staff are great. Food is very tasty and a lot of attention to detail there. I decided to celebrate my wedding ceremony there and Khadija (restaurant manager) was extremely helpful and very welcoming. She made my day the best ever and I can't thank her enough for all her cooperation and the efforts she has made. She added a lot of beautiful touches to the place and gifted us a very stunning flower bouquet. She absolutely amazed us and I am so grateful for her🌷🌷 I highly recommend this restaurant for food and all occasions.

    The highlight here is that they have the best tomatoes we'd ever tasted, no hyperbole. Just a mind blowing flame roasted tomato thrown onto the plate beside the chicken with no fanfare. The rest of the food was also very good, with another shout-out going to the hummus with lamb. Vibes were good. If it's your thing, it appears they will give you a fez and sing to you on your birthday.

    Best breakfast in Newcastle!!! If you around on a Sunday it is a must the traditional Turkish breakfast is a huge feast! You get the warm Turkish breads, pastries, sausages, cheeses, honey with cream, olives, eggs, pot of Turkish tea which you mix you yourself! So much food it’s £20 per person but such good quality ingredients for all the food. It was the best Turkish breakfast i have had it’s only available on Sundays 12-4pm! The restaurant is lovely with polite staff and management! Free parking in their own car park! 5***** a must visit especially for the breakfast.

    We as a family had a great experience there. Food was great, served really well. Atmosphere is also nice. As a Turkish, I felt home. Music was nice and calming, kids also loved it. I think the prices are also very reasonable compared to the quality of the food and service. Waitresses also made a wonderful surprise for a birthday boy while we were there. Overall, I recommend Lezzet Restaurant anyone, especially if you are having a guest.

    Loved this restaurant. The deco and service was amazing, we had the pleasure of being served by Rose. I normally dine in Turkish restaurants whenever I have an opportunity to come to England. This was my first experience in newcastle and have to say that we chose well. The humus and meatballs were delicious. I had the kunahfe for dessert and this one was amazing ..... highly recommended this restaurant. Will come again for sure. Thanks

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lezzet Newcastle, and I must say it was an incredible experience. From start to finish, the food was simply outstanding. To begin, the hummus and bread were served fresh and had a delightful combination of flavors. The hummus was creamy and perfectly seasoned, while the bread was warm and fluffy. Moving on to the mains, I opted for the Adana, and it was a true delight. The meat was incredibly tender and flavorful, practically melting in my mouth. Each bite was a burst of juicy, buttery goodness. It's evident that Lezzet Newcastle takes great care in preparing their dishes with high-quality ingredients and traditional techniques. Now, let's talk about the star of the show – the baklava with ice cream. This heavenly dessert surpassed my expectations. The baklava was wonderfully crisp, with layers of sweet, sticky goodness. Paired with the creamy ice cream, it created a delightful contrast of textures and flavors. I dare say it was even better than some of the baklava I've had in Turkey itself. The overall dining experience at Lezzet Newcastle was exceptional. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the staff was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Whether you're a fan of Turkish cuisine or simply looking for an outstanding dining experience, I highly recommend visiting Lezzet Newcastle. You won't be disappointed!

    Delicious food, friendly staff and the music was on point. We waited a little longer during the busy time but it was worth the waiting. Prices are a little overrated in my opinion, could be perfect if it was a little cheaper.

    Having dinner at Lezzet Turkish Restaurant after a long day had been one of the highlights of our busy weekend in Newcastle! The food and drinks were great, the ambience was amazing and the staff were really lovely especially Antonio who had been very kind and friendly to us. He made sure we enjoyed our experience and even cared for our takeaways! ☺️ It was such a nice experience and this place is definitely worth visiting. ❤️

    Valentines night . What a great effort Lezzets put on with hearts confetti, heart balloon and a red rose for the ladies . Food was fantastic as usual with very polite staff. Great atmosphere. Well worth the money any day .

    Been here before but on my last visit they’d quite literary rolled out the red carpet. Amazing entry to what turned out to be an amazing meal. Great food and drinks with relaxed but attentive service. Can’t recommend highly enough

    We went there last night in a group of 6 and the experience was fantastic! The staff were really welcoming and attentive whilst the owner / manager even offered to move my car into their car park, as it was parked in front of the pub opposite. Most of us had the mixed grill, followed by the baklava which was just perfection. There were a few birthday parties in attendance, and the restaurant celebrations were like mini shows complete with sparklers, singing and clapping. A warm and inviting venue that I'd highly recommend!

    What a fabulous restaurant - even the car park is gorgeous. We had a starter, main and sparkling water, plus a couple of zero lagers, it isn't cheap ( our bill was £73 ), but it was delicious and we were very full!

    The owner was very welcoming, even guiding us into the car park (be prepared for a tight squeeze). Lovely manner and genuinely happy to have you there. Great menu, the food had lots of flavour and the timings of courses were spot on. I really enjoyed the birthday songs for birthday tables! Lights dim and everybody claps along.. great atmosphere!

    Brilliant restaurant in a lovely setting. The portions are huge. Visited for a birthday and they made a real fuss when bringing out the cake which was lovely, music, singing, lights dimmed and candles.

    My family and I had a lovely afternoon brunch at Lezzet. We ordered the hot platter and Turkish tea which was so far the best in town. The waitress “Rose” made the experience even better with her great hospitality. She even gave roses when we left.

    The food is amazing, and it is plated wonderfully. We ordered the Ali Nazik and Sac Kavurma, and it was presented uniquely. Plus, the taste was fabulous. Our starters, the cacik and sarma were scrumptious and a true delicacy. The dessert, sutlac, had a such a great taste. Would highly recommend. Yemekler muazzam!!!
