It is a small place so I would recommend ordering ahead. Nice simple place which was nice and quite homely. It was our first time there and will definitely be going back! “Chicken Shish was to die for, my partner had the lamb shish and potentially the best halloumi I’ve had. Try it for yourself. It’s definitely worth it!” Another Northampton resident couldn’t agree more and found Truva to be better than other local establishments offering a similar fare. “After having a rather disappointing meal at another Turkish restaurant locally, my friends and I thought we’d try Truva. And what a find! Impeccable service right from when we entered. Excellent tasty food, v reasonably priced. Beautiful interior, great atmosphere. I will certainly be back, and recommend!” Likewise, a recent diner just can’t get enough of Truva and is eager to return! “Discovered this gem of a restaurant completely by chance. My brother had the Chicken Iskender and I opted for the Karnivarik (stuffed aubergine). Both were amazing as were the desserts and liqueur coffees rounded off with complimentary Turkish Delights. Our waitress Tia was charming and totally professional. We will be back!” Company: Chef Sula Grill LTD Web Address: www.truvagrill.co.uk There are so many uniquely different and authentic restaurants out there, that dining out has become much more of an experience than simply eating good food.
