SUN RESTAURANT

Sun Restaurant is where birthdays become a flavor explosion, and trust me, you’ll want to grab a seat here. Sam Cruickshank couldn’t stop raving about the heavenly hummus and stuffed vine leaves, saying they were substantial and not bitter—whatever that means. The staff are a bunch of legends, making you feel like royalty while you sip on mocktails and Turkish tea. Plus, they throw in complimentary baklava because why not?

But don’t be fooled; there’s a dark side. One unfortunate reviewer, Beth, had a spot of bad luck with the burnt Adana Kofte, which tasted like it had a personal vendetta against culinary excellence. But don’t worry; the majority seems to think this place is the bee’s knees. Just pray you’re not the one who gets the charcoal special and remember to ask for the good stuff.
