Rumi Restaurant

What's on the menu

The kitchen sticks to Turkish cooking: grilled kebabs, a spread of mezes to share, aromatic stews, seafood and Turkish desserts. Ordering a few mezes for the table before a grill main is the easiest way to try a range.

Who it suits

Its central position makes it convenient before a show at the Theatre Royal or King's Theatre or a gig in town, and it works for groups who like to share. There is a second Rumi in Giffnock on the south side, and the restaurant sells gift cards. Mezes suit a relaxed dinner where everyone picks at the middle of the table, while grills suit a quicker meal before an evening out. Being so central, it also works for a lunch break between shops on Buchanan Street and Argyle Street, or a meal on the way back to the train after a day trip into Glasgow. Ask staff for help if you are unsure what to order from the mezes.

Nearby

The Smokin' Fox is next door for a drink, and Drum & Monkey, in a former bank, is a couple of minutes away. If you're staying nearby, The Address Glasgow and voco Grand Central are both within a short walk.
