    We were visiting Kara Lounge & Grill the second time, with our friends from France. The food was superb, we ordered kix of starters like cacik/sucuk(spicy Turkish sausage absolutely fantastic)and for the main we had House special mix platter for 4-5 people. Honestly we were stuffed with all the starters that we could not handle the main dish. So had to pack up. Everything was very fresh good quality food. Also had some mock-tails, decent size glasses. We will be coming back again and again as its one to go place in town.

    Usually a good experience?. But on this occasion staff wherever unhelpful and food wasn't great. Restaurant wasn't busy I don't understand why staff were very unhelpful and rushing you through. Very bad experience overall.

    Eellent service second to none. The host was so polite and helpful. Value for money. Food well prepared and nutritious. The Kara is such a lovely experience and the vibes was right. I think The Kara is such a great example of how restaurant must operate and should be use as such for those the restaurant business. My Partner and I would surely visit again. I think that special effort is made for patrons to feel comfortable and to enjoy their meal.
