Tas Pide

I have been going to Tas Pide in Globe Walk for several years, following a review in The Guardian. We have never been disappointed; good food, reasonably priced and in a lovely atmosphere. Friends have also started going there, following my recommendation, and regard it as a hidden treasure. It's also brilliant that they are geared up for performance times at The Globe theatre, and ensure we are fed in good time to make the play without rushing. So sorry others have been disappinted.

We were meeting with a friend for lunch who has a little baby and decided to have some nice Turkish food so we went to Tas Pide. My partner went in first to check whether they had a baby changing unit, the answer was no. Then my Turkish friend went in there to speak with them just in case they thought we only wanted to use the facilities. After a long wait at the door the same lady came up to her and said ' I've already told you!' in a very aggressive and rude way. So we left, shocked by this treatment and went to The Real Greek restaurant. Had a lovely time, great food in a friendly atmosphere. No more Tas.

There's nothing more that I like, than a good meal and an enjoyable evening out with friends. Well, there is one thing. I like a well built restaurant. The sort of establishment that you know you can count on. The sort that won't fall down and will still be standing in years to come. In terms of the build of the place, I noticed two things. Good doors, small chairs. And quite frankly, that should be more than enough for any man. The food was a bonus. The atmosphere, a delight. Good doors, small chairs – I'll be back there for sure.

went to Tas Pide this evening, 26/08/11, with my husband. use to go there quite often before, but today we were very disappointed. like the previous reviewer, we were also greeted very coldly. there is no warmth or friendliness!!

though we had booked, were given a table near the counter. so we asked to be seated elsewhere, which they agreed. straight away the bread came with olives and the yogurt dip. the bread was cold and hard, so sent it back to be heated.

than ordered couple of starters, falafel, kisir, humous and the filo pastry. the falafels were hot but not cooked at all from inside. so left half the starters. my husband wanted to just leave, but convinced him to stay for the dessert and coffee.

want be going there again ever.

I am Turkish myself and for the last five years I’ve been trying to find a Turkish restaurant in London that actually serves Turkish food. So when I went to Tas Pide I was rather sceptical. I went to the restaurant for a Friday lunch with a friend of mine. First of all we were greeted by a very unfriendly head-waitress who wanted to make us sit next to the lavatory, of course I refused and opted for another table which wasn’t a problem since the place was half empty. She made a face and walked away – very unprofessional and rude. So that wasn’t a good start.

The food was absolutely horrible – from start to the finish. We ordered couple of cold and hot starters (which were recommended by our waiter who knew I was Turkish) and for mains we had two pides (mince lamb and chop meaty ones), which were both bland and tasteless. We tried our best to finish what we got, but we just couldn’t, it was horrible.

I was very disappointed, will never go to this place again. On the top of that they charged us 25 quid per head (without wine!) for this rubbish.

If you want to have real Turkish food, then go to Turkey... that’s what I’d say.
