   Food was a complete joke.Portion sizes you are kidding me you call 2 small pieces of chicken and 2 small pices of lamb mixed kebab.Calling Burek a tiny tiny samosa this is a hard pass. The food didn't have flavour.Adding service charge without asking is ridiculous.Bill was £84 and left hungry. Chairs were extremely uncomfortable.Avoid at all costs.Not worth the money I would rather go somewhere else like Harringey Green Lanes.

   The food was really good. There was a lot of choice on the menu. We all had different choices and everyone enjoyed their lunch. The service was good in that the waiter was there when needed and we weren't rushed. The portion sizes were good. The only small problem was that the table was near the door, which meant it wasn't very warm where we were. It was an exceptionally cold day, so I guess the situation was unusual.

   A friendly, long-estabished gem of a restaurant in this corner of Bloomsbury, serving good Turkish food from a wide menu. Strongly recommended.

   We were a table of 14 and abdullah accommodated our request to have a long table or two tables of 7 together. To help speed things up I sent a list of the meals that everyone wanted so that helped the kitchen enormously I'm sure. Service was very good as it always is and I recommend everyone go there - it was so nice not to be rushed and all 14 of us enjoyed the meals. I'll definitely go again!!

   Beautifully cooked Anatolian specialities served by friendly staff in a delightful dining room. Recommended for lunch with friends or after a visit to the British Museum - and luckily it’s not full of tourists. Only drawback is occasionally noisy tables but that’s a risk in too many places now.

   I recently dined at this Turkish restaurant and had mixed feelings about the experience. While the ambiance was pleasant, the service was much slower than I expected—it took quite a while for our food to arrive. When it did, I was surprised by the portion sizes, as they were much smaller than what I’m used to at other Turkish spots. Considering the high prices, I felt the value for money just wasn’t there. It’s a shame because the flavours were good, but the overall experience left me wanting more.

   Dear Cihan, Thank you for sharing your opinions with us. We’re glad you enjoyed the flavours and our ambiance, but we’re sorry to hear that the service didn’t meet your expectations that evening. While it was a particularly busy night, we understand the importance of timely service and will keep this in mind moving forward. Regarding portion sizes and prices, our aim is to maintain a balance that reflects the quality of our ingredients and the care that goes into each dish. We hope to welcome you back soon for a better experience. Best regards, Tas Bloomsbury

    I was pretty surprised. I've been to TAS many times. Last night, the food was tough and tasteless. I was embarrassed as I had been telling my friends about TAS and I took them there for not a good evening.
