I need more stars to rate it fairly. It was a treat for my birthday as I spend more than half my time in Fethiye, Turkey. We all chose Turkish dishes and these were exceptionally good and had all the flavours of Turkey, even my 3 year old granddaughter loved the Turkish meatballs.
This must be the best Turkish Restaurant outside Turkey and better than a lot in Turkey.
I can't recommend highly enough.7/5 ☆s

We've eaten here quite a few times at lunchtime. The restaurant is lovely inside, it has a Mediterranean, holiday feel. The food is tasty and reasonably priced. The staff are friendly and attentive. The menu could do with expansion on vegetarian choices. I would definately eat here again.

Amazing food and lovely service. Always like to try something new and the food tastes authentic and is just super delicious. Even my 9 month old loves the food here, especially the lentil soup 😋 can't wait to enjoy another yummy meal.

Food in this place is truly amazing. Fresh and you can tell the chef takes real pride in what they serve. The staff are always really friendly and nothing is too much trouble. It's a little hidden gem in the heart of Barnsley. Do not miss out.

Lovely staff, great atmosphere and lovely choices of food. Lemon tree has some really nice Turkish meals which are pretty tasty. The portions are generous. 4 stars because our food was smothered in sauce and it gets too liquid in the end. One of the chicken dishes had warm ketchup sauce on top of it and not actual tomato marinade. It made it too sweet to eat easily.
