Efes Fulham is a family run Turkish restaurant at 309-311 North End Road, part of a London group whose first restaurant opened in 1974. Named after the ancient city of Ephesus, the restaurant centres its menu on handmade dishes, fresh ingredients and the generous hospitality associated with traditional Turkish dining.
A meal can begin with lentil soup, hummus, cacik, grilled aubergine ezme, stuffed vine leaves or crisp sigara böreği filled with feta and parsley. Hot and cold mixed meze bring several tastes to the table at once, while freshly baked bread, shepherd salad and grilled halloumi make it easy to assemble a varied shared opening.
The charcoal grill is the heart of the main selection, producing chicken and lamb shish, Adana kebab, chicken wings, lamb ribs and mixed platters with rice, salad and grilled vegetables. Doner, wraps and yoghurt based kebabs such as Iskender offer different formats, while lahmacun provides a thin baked base topped with seasoned minced meat and peppers.
Grilled sea bass and salmon add lighter main course choices, and larger special platters are designed for families or groups. Baklava and künefe provide a sweet finish, with Turkish tea, soft drinks and familiar refreshments completing a menu that moves comfortably from a quick wrap to a full meze and grill feast.
