The investment is a huge boost for Ecclesall Road which has seen several restaurant closures in the last two years. Graze Inn and the Eagle closed within days of each other in summer 2022.

Mavi Ruya is based in a former Morrisons local supermarket - Oddbins wine store before that - on Abbeydale Road. The restaurant has dozens of five-star reviews on Tripadvisor. One complained it was ‘very loud’.
