Every dish we tried hit the mark. The starters — a smooth hummus, tangy cacik, and freshly-made warm bread — were the perfect prelude to the mains. When the charcoal-grilled lamb liver (“ciğer”) arrived, it was tender, rich, and carried that subtle smokiness that only an authentic ocakbaşı grill brings. The Adana kebab followed, succulent, perfectly spiced, with fiery edges and a flavour that lingered long after each bite. Sides of rice and crisp salad gave balance, and the bread remained warm, slightly charred at the edges — exactly the sort of detail that transforms a meal into an experience.

Went to Cengo Ocakbaşı and honestly, what a gem. The place has such a cosy, authentic vibe, proper ocakbaşı atmosphere with the grill on show, great energy, and the music just adds to it without being over the top. The meze portions were really generous, and everything tasted so fresh. The main dishes were incredible too, proper charcoal flavour, exactly how it should be. You can tell the chefs care about what they’re doing. Staff was genuinely kind, welcoming and attentive without hovering. It just felt relaxed, comfortable, and super friendly from the moment we walked in. Honestly, 10/10 — amazing food, great atmosphere, and you leave feeling looked after. Definitely going back.

I've been coming to this restaurant for quite a few years. I didn't know they were under new management. We sat down as usual and ordered our go to. Grilled chicken wings and chips. We received a few complimentary starters which were so tasty. (Hummus, cacik, ezme and salad along with seasoned bread) the staff were so friendly. They offered us tea in between our drinks (ara sicak) and gave us a complimentary plate of turkish cheese and honey dew melon to snack on with our drinks. We felt at home. Kemal made us feel so comfortable. What a great little change. Thank you!

Lovely food, staff (Ayla and Kemal - the owner!) and atmosphere. Very quick service and best of all no mandatory added service charge! Will definitely order again.

We visited this Turkish restaurant as a group of 8, and everything was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, the service was friendly and attentive, making sure we all felt well looked after. The food was incredible – fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried was delicious, and the portions were generous too. It’s not easy to impress a big group, but they truly delivered. We all left very happy and can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

I’ve been visiting Cengo for a few years now and recently found out it’s under new management. Thankfully the quality of the food and service has remained top tier. I appreciate the generous portions, warm hospitality and delicious food as always. Highly recommend :)
