Absolutely the best food and service ever, thoroughly recommend this place. Beautiful, delicious and well presented. The staff are fantastic, Taijah , was our waitor, he was fantastic as was the other front of house waitor. Delicious baklava cooked to perfection for desert was amazing. I can't rave about this place enough it is a must. The ambience also, the pictures , pots , beads etc all add to the dining experience. I cannot wait to go back.

Was a fairly nice experience this time, the food was yummy, a little pricey for the amount you get but I guess that's becoming the norm these days. I think the menu is seasonal so I wanted something not on the menu anymore. Bummer. Good service.

The best Vegetarian friendly restaurant in Hawkes Bay! Me and my mum brought her Friend and she was astounded by how many optoions there were that she had never tried before. The family affair is great massive propes to the couple.

Such a lucky find. Food was delicious and the service was top notch. We didn’t have a booking, so we were lucky to get a table. The restaurant was completely full within 15 minutes of arriving and I was worried our food would take forever. No need to worry, the kitchen got our atom mezze, halloumi souvlaki, and fries out very quickly and our beef moussaka was only a few minutes behind. The food was all fantastic and the staff (two young men who never stopped hustling) were great! Seriously some of the best service I’ve had in NZ. Definitely book ahead if you have a group and plan on ordering a bunch of things and sharing.

The best Turkish food we’ve ever had. We ordered aubergine courgette, moussaka, spanokopita, tzatziki with pita and salad. Wow. They prepped off-the-menu potatoes for our son, which we appreciated. Lovely ambience…and the dessert…must try the sticky date pudding and baklava.

BEST CALAMARI I HAVE LITERALLY EVERRRR TASTED!!! And yes I’m writing that in capitals because you simply cannot go to or pass through the Havelock North let alone Hawkes Bay/Napier without booking in to this little Aegean/Turkish gem literally just to experience that entree. So fresh, melted in the mouth, all three of us had our eyes rolling back into our heads we were in raptures. I’ve travelled the world and nowhere has comes close to serving something so simple up that good - could’ve eaten a bowl of it. And of course the rest of the menu is so good you’ll have trouble making choices (cue sharing small plates), mains are beautiful rich and authentic and well portioned. I had to order half a takeaway of my beef moussaka because I’d overdone it on the insanely good halloumi bread starter and still wanted to make room for Tiramasu. Happily washed it all down with a bottle of Trinity Hill Syrah. This place is so unassuming but absolutely worth venturing out to experience / support some local homestead-like hospitality. I’m going to be daydreaming about feta wrapped in filo with toasted seasame seeds and a drizzle of delicious honey on the drive all the way back to Auckland. And sorry, ate the calamari so quick I forgot to take a photo, but the moussaka and Tiramasu made the cut. Thank you FIKO - such a pleasure!

Food was amazing, the authentic taste was excellent throughout each dish and we really enjoyed it. The style was nice, atmosphere very relaxed and an excellent selection of drinks to pair with the food. The service was friendly and attentive. Thanks so much for a lovely evening!

Absolutely wonderful. What a great place to eat and the food was amazing. Over a number of visits it has been consistently excellent quality. Last night we booked for 7 - even through the group grew to 9 they simply made more room available. And the wait staff were excellent...

Stunning meals in this busy restaurant. Moussaka was great. Sharing a variety of starters was a fun way of trying more of the menu. We recommend this restaurant

The food tasted really nice. Service was great. Price was worth the experience, quality and quantity of food you get. The restaurant setting is good and the staff are lovely. Highly recommend. You must try the flavors of other countries.
