Achelya - DOCKLANDS

We really enjoyed dining here as it was just the right Mediterranean dishes we were looking for.

Service was horrendous - we had to keep asking after simple items. Food choice was poor, and massively overpriced for what it is. Staying away is a MUST!

Atmosphere appealing, service excellent, eat very well. we had the fish that was delicious, mixed grill and all meat tender, dips and halloumi grilled. eating was good and that counts. shocked by the people including women smoking pipes

Friends meet for lunch with a scoopon voucher described as seafood plated meal. a basket of small pieces brot and big pretty dips were set before us as soon as they set themselves. No, where almost enough brot, all were half eaten. next a plate with Calamari rings and chips....not very Middle Eastern. followed by mosquitoes garnel and skallops in a tomato and paprikasauce. pretty chewing seafood. grilled fish pieces and salat of salat, tomato and gurke. pretty boring and certainly not the Turkish / Lebanese influence we expected

Found a deal through Scoopon was off original price and was glad we did not pay full price. We had a seafood platter, l think the owners need to google what a seafood platter actually is. Our meal consisted of dips with lebanese...flat bread, which was ok. Seafood consisted of green lip mussels, overcooked prawns very small, scallops not worth mentioning in some sort of sauce, basa fillets not even Australian SERIOUSLY rings of calamari with chips and a boring salad. Unfortunately the wine that was offered with the was the best part of the night. Should have gone with my gut, when it appeared the Restaurant was in two parts, one half occupied with people smoking hookahs, then the patrons looking for a meal. Smoking is prohibited in all restaurants, Apparently Hookahs are not, go figure! I feel let down, we were looking foward to our meal, but in all honesty could not wait to get out. I felt sorry for a family with young children who came in part way through our meal. This is the second meal in Docklands, albeit years apart, we will not be going back again. I do not enjoy typing this, but I want to be honest in my appraisal.
