Efes Grill

Head down Sidwell Street and you'll find yourself in Efes Grill, a straightforward Turkish spot that doesn't mess about. You're looking at charcoal-grilled meats done right—lamb, chicken, beef cooked over flames with proper technique. The mezze selection is generous: hummus, baba ghanoush, stuffed peppers, that sort of thing. It's the kind of place where you can rock up solo for a quick kebab or bring mates and order everything family-style. The room itself is unpretentious—bright, no-fuss—which suits the food perfectly. With 851 reviews and a solid 4.3 rating, this place has clearly found its rhythm with Exeter.
