Olive Lounge

Absolutely fantastic food, service (Yaren is the perfect server) and atmosphere. We consider ourselves connoisseurs of excellent authentic Turkish food, and this was amongst the best we’ve ever had (and we’ve had a lot). Highly recommended.Thank you!

It's a relatively new restaurant that to be fair I wasn't even aware of until our friends booked it a few days earlier! It's situated above and is actually part of CHAMAS restaurant! Infact you enter through the Chamas entrance and go straight upstairs. (This is obviously a problem if you have mobility issues?). 🤔 Ali, the owner, decided to change the use and vibe of the upstairs into a Turkish restaurant. 👍 The staff are as ever in CHAMAS are extremely friendly and helpful, overseen by manager Dyar. The food was extremely tasty and well presented. The Lamb shank just fell off the bone. Grilled sea bass was excellent. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos of the dishes because basically I was too busy chatting to our friends, Ali and Dyar. It just means that we will have to return!😂 We had an exceptionally good time catching up and eating great food. Couldn't have asked anymore!

First time and we’ll be back, great addition to Beverley. The food was gorgeous! Great atmosphere and service. Our waitress Yaren was particularly attentive and gave a great recommendation for our food.

I love Turkish food and was so excited to visit. The staff were so lovely, really friendly and attentive. We had the set menu and picked lamb shish and lamb chops, both where perfectly cooked, big portions (we where already struggling by the end of the meze!) had to take dessert home for later 😂 lovely chat with our waiter at the end, will definitely be back.

The only place in the entire UK where you’ll find truly authentic Turkish food. From the very first bite, you can taste the difference — this is not watered-down or adapted for the masses. The flavours are bold, traditional, and unmistakably Turkish, exactly how the food is meant to be. Portion sizes are extremely generous and genuinely satisfying, offering excellent value without compromising on quality. Every dish feels freshly prepared, well-seasoned, and cooked with real care and authenticity. The balance of spices, the tenderness of the meat, and the freshness of the ingredients all reflect proper Turkish home-style cooking rather than commercialised versions you often find elsewhere. If you’re looking for authentic taste, hearty portions, and food that truly represents Turkish cuisine, this place sets the benchmark. Highly recommended and absolutely worth returning to again and again.
