    This is our second time at the Counter Soho and the food and overall experience equally impressed us both times. Started with Istanbuli tomato salad which has meaty and juicy heirloom tomatoes with a zesty dressing. Repeat order for us. We continued with lamb tartare (perfectly seasoned) and saffron crab orzo (creamy and refined) and finished with Adana kebap which was perfectly seasoned and cooked. We had a red wine from Sicily (Siccagno from Occhipinti) which accompanied all the dishes. We will go back.

    The food was delicious. It was also very enjoyable to sit at the bar and listen to records. It was a very surprising and exciting space for a ground floor venue. We had a dinner that we enjoyed.

    The Counter Soho is a true gem. Their mezze selection is outstanding—each dish a burst of authentic flavour. The tuna wagyu, however, steals the spotlight with its melt-in-your-mouth perfection. Pair these delights with a wine from their impressively curated list, offering something special for every palate. A must-visit for exceptional food and a refined dining experience.

    The Counter will change your perception of Turkish food. Flavours curated by Chef Kemal Demirasal are familiar yet so ingenious. Counter raises the bar for the standart of Turkish restaurants in London to so high! Must try…

    The overall experience is positive. Mezes were quite delicious and outstanding (White chocolate babagannus and Humus with dates) which I have not tasted anywhere else before. We ordered Adana as the main course. it was delicious and but portion was quite small and there was nothing as a side dish as rice, cooked vegetables and the service was made in a small plate which showed it like hot starter not the main course. I'd work on changing the way Adana is served and it was quite expensive. there was also no Kids menu.. Price/Value ratio could also be something to improve.
