What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Deniz Restaurant is frequently praised for its delicious, fresh, and authentic Turkish cuisine, complemented by friendly and attentive staff. Many highlight the excellent value of the lunch specials and the warm, inviting atmosphere. However, some reviewers have noted issues with consistency in food quality, particularly concerning seafood and side dishes, and one reviewer mentioned an issue with order accuracy for a family meal.
"The moment we stepped into this restaurant we noticed that this place is run with pride. The place is spotless and well decorated. In a town like Basildon this place is a real gem. If you want a decent place to eat at a reasonable price I can really recommend this restaurant. They have a reasonable lunch menu and they can be flexible with special requirements or requests. The waiter was really attentive and made us feel very welcome. You won't find a better restaurant in Basildon Town Centre and it puts the chain restaurants and eateries to shame. Well done Deniz... !"

"Me and my son visited Friday night (our 3rd visit) lunch is great value and a smaller serving of the dinner options. First of all as you walk in a chilled atmosphere. Service was quick and a friendly. Prices aren't bad. Drinks ice cold eyes. Cocktails and non alcohol versions too. Maybe if I'm critical I find the non alcohol a bit expensive for what they are. Overall a brilliant place to eat. Just on a side note the man who done magic tricks was excellent a great edition"

"Probably one of the quickest deliveries I’ve ever gotten paired with the worst calamari I’ve ever had in my life
Absolute rip off, looked like beaten up onion rings
I don’t know if I need to call the police for theft at this point.
The lamb kleftiko on the other hand was soft, lovely and tasty, for barely 3 pound more.
Like I said, I feel robbed, £80 order, what a joke."
