Aksular Enfield Town is a Turkish ocakbaşı grill on Silver Street, in the centre of Enfield Town and a couple of minutes from the station. It’s one of several restaurants trading under the Aksular name in north London, including branches on Hertford Road and in Palmers Green.

The menu is built around the charcoal grill, with skewered meats and kebab platters served with rice or bulgur, salad and bread, plus hot and cold meze to start. We haven’t been able to check a full menu for this branch, so ask staff what’s on the grill.

It suits a family dinner, a casual meal after shopping in Enfield Town or a takeaway on the way home.

What to order at Aksular Enfield Town

We haven’t been able to check a full menu for this one yet, so treat this as a guide to the classics rather than a confirmed list. As an ocakbaşı-style grill, these are the dishes to look for:

Adana kebap – spiced minced lamb on a wide skewer
Kuzu şiş – marinated lamb cubes from the charcoal grill
Tavuk şiş – marinated chicken skewers
Karışık ızgara – a mixed grill platter to share
Meze – hot and cold starters such as hummus, cacık and ezme

Atmosphere and good to know

This is a sit-down restaurant that also does takeaway. Halal status isn’t stated, and we haven’t confirmed whether alcohol is served, so check with the restaurant if either matters to you. Vegetarians can usually make a meal from the meze, but ask what’s available.

Its central position and all-day opening, from 11am to 11pm every day, make it an easy choice for lunch or dinner in Enfield Town. Call ahead for big groups at the weekend.
