Konak

5   Great Food!

Absolutely top class food, very authentic and tasty.

5   Very warm and welcoming restaurant

We thought we would try something different this last weekend from our normal sort of thing like The Bubble Room and Gusto and what a great evening we had.

We rang up on the previous Monday and could not get the time we wanted, which we took as a good sign, as a busy restaurant must be a good one?!

As soon as we walked through the door we got a very warm welcome and were shown to our table. I had the spicy sausage which was amazing, just the right heat. Onto the main, all i can say is WOW!! We chose to have the special, which by the way nearly everybody in the restaurant seemed to be having, which is a massive plate with a selection of all the menu on for £14.95 a head. Worth every penny! The flavours are out of this world.

The meat is cooked on a BBQ and with all the spices that are added it just transports you to a foreign land for the couple of hours your are lucky enough to be in the restaurant. If, like me, you are a bit wary of foreign food, dont be scared, get on the phone and book yourself a table here! I'll be back soon, thats for certain.

5   Fantastic Restaurant and Great New Years Eve

Always a warm welcome at Konak - Bagdagul (front of house) is a welcoming and vibrant hostess, Zoe is so friendly behind the bar, and the food is simple yet amazing flavours and unbelievably good value. New Year's Eve there was a great evening with a full house, terrific atmosphere, belly dancing (Bagdagul contributed very ably to this too!), and more good food - and at £37.50 plus drinks was best value New Year's Eve out ever. Many thanks to everyone at Konak for a great time - keep up the good work but dont tell everyone otherwise I wont be able to book a table!

5   I can't believe I haven't been here before

I visited Konak last week with, I have to admit, a few reservations about the type of food on offer as I was expecting vine leaves, hummus etc...which I do not enjoy. I hold my hands up and admit that I was very wrong about Konak - the food is the best I have had in a long time.

It was a very pleasant change from the run of the mill pizza/pasta I am used to eating in the local restaurants. The food was not over powering yet had the most delicious flavours. I had the Konak lamb meatballs which I cannot recommend highly enough.

Combine this with a great, cozy, laid back atmosphere and delicious wine and you have the perfect recipe for a night out. If you don't think it is 'your thing', then please try it - I will definitely be back for more!

5   Great place and knowledgable staff

I came across Konak more than two years ago when walking through Alderley Edge on a Sunday afternoon. Only recently opened at the time, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The menu on offer that day was amazingly priced and very good quality. I have been back between then and now, and still can't fault their quality or service. Alderley Edge needs independents like this.

5   Complements to the Chef

Having only visited Konak on one previous occasion when it first opened, I have to say that I kicked myself, when there last week, for not frequenting this restaurant more often. I'm not sure why, when choosing a place to eat in the village, that it is not top of my list (it will be now!) as I can safely say that it is the best meal that I have had in the village for a very long time. The quality of the food was exceptional and cooked to perfection. I found it a very pleasant atmosphere, the service was warm and friendly and the prices were very reasonable too ... well worth a visit!

5   Consistently good Middle Eastern Cuisine

Delicious food, reasonable prices, friendly service. Cannot fault it. Please don't all rush in as I want to be able to get a table!

5   A really enjoyable experience

Initially we avoided Konak because it looked empty when we walked past, but we have now eaten in Konak on a number of occasions. Each time it has been packed, which isn't surprising because the food is delicious and of a consistently high standard. The staff are really friendly and provide an excellent service in a friendly environment. I would really recommend Konak for an evening out.
