Great restaurant. The portions are big, the prices are reasonable and the food is delicious. The bread is outstanding. I had the iskender and is was super tasty. The baklava is also pretty good if not top notch. Really great Mediterranean food in a nice atmosphere.

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.

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!

A wonderfully delicious meal with free starters and baklava. So much food we struggled to finish but able to take home for a cheeky snack later. We would definitely recommend. Great restaurant, lovely food, friendly staff, nice atmosphere and reasonably priced.

Great restaurant. The meal was great, the portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. They've done a fantastic job, and I'm really picky when it comes to the flavor and taste of lamb.

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!

It has a nice authentic Turkish decor and welcoming. We chose a nice quiet time to go and enjoy the meal. We ordered starters I had the halloumi rating 3/5 and my friend had the falafel she rated it 3.5/5 and they give you this amazing bread as a starter that tastes amazing. No this bread. Yeah that’s a 4.5 out of 5. For the mains I ordered chicken wings with the chips instead of the rice. (As you guys know I don’t like rice) I would write the chicken wings at 3 out of 5 and my friend had the lamb shish which is her favourite, she rated it 3.5 out of 5 and she had that with everything on the plate. The meals are good. I had pineapple juice to drink and my friend had a Prosecco . I would recommend this place for a late lunch early dinner I don’t know what the crowd is like at night time as we went about 16:45/17:00 and it was not so busy. Service was a little slow. Once we finished eating, no one came round to find out how the food was and no one came to ask if we needed to the Bill. After 25 minutes of chit chat and waiting, we had to ask for the bill to be brought otherwise for that the food is good, I would say 3 1/2 out of 5. I’ve had better Turkish meals but yeah for Crystal Palace location it’s okay
