If you're in search of delicious food made from scratch, this is it! We try to avoid a lot of sodium and everything we tried was so fresh and seasoned so well we knew we didnt have to worry. Our first time trying Turkish food and our waitress was so helpful and brought over a few things for us to try, she never rushed us or made us feel bad for asking so many questions. The entrees are big enough to share and they show little videos on the TV of how they make certain items on the menu. The chicken dish we had was the Chef Special and it was superb! We cant wait to be back to try the pistachio dessert!
The food is five stars. It was great to get Falafel that is green on the inside like they make it in Egypt where I frequent. I had the lamb and it was excellent. The waitress was friendly and helpful. When my mother's lamb came back just slightly pink in the middle they happily took it back to the kitchen to cook a little longer and the plate that came out had a brand new mound of rice. (Omg the rice is so good!) The only reason why I gave four stars is the state in which the building is on the outside. Had I not read the other reviews touting the food as on par we would have never stopped based on the appearance. But you just have to chalk this place up to being one of the Diamonds in the rough a little Jewel with excellent Turkish food. The pricing of the food is not on the inexpensive side but because it is so good you will happily pay the price.
Food and service are phenomenal! We had the stewed eggplant and cucumber yogurt starters with the Lavas bread.
We chose the chicken shish kebab as our entree, which was exceptional. The marinade was flavororsome and balanced, the meat was juicy and tender, and there was the perfect amount of char on the outside.
The rice was a perfect cook with a delicious flavor and NOT greasy at all. The salad and pickled veggies rounded the meal out perfectly.
We split our starter and meal between two people, which was more than enough food. We still managed to be a bit greedy and opt for rice pudding and tea to end our meal. Both were delicious, not as delicious as the entre but still a great way to end our meal. We will be back.
AMAZING (I mean it) food for unbeatable prices!! I visited every single Turkish restaurant in Orlando and this one is definitely the best!Service is good and the owner makes sure that everything is fine! The restaurant has a nice atmosphere. It is family friendly, but also ideal for date nights!They have also live music. I truly recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants to try Turkish and/or Mediterranean food!
Stopped in here based on reviews and was such a pleasant experience. The staff was friendly and patient and the food was incredible! Tried the baked hummus, chicken adana, chicken shish kabobs, beef/lamb gyro , lavash bread and was surprised to see they had freshly made kanafe dessert! The desert was out of this world!
Great food and service! Mehmet, our sever was real attentive and took care of all our needs. We even got treated to baklava as a courtesy from the house. I highly recommend giving this place a try
Delicious food! Lavas bread and baked hummus for an appetizer. Moussaka and Beef Kabobs for entrees. Everything was really good. Atmosphere is okay. Loved the videos of Turkey playing on the TVs. Live music was entertaining but all the Frank Sinatra standards seemed out of place. Bathrooms are dated but the toilet paper is plush! (You're welcome)
The food here was really good. Especially the Lamb and the dessert with sweet cheese in it.
This was my first time eating Turkish food and it was amazing! I had the chicken adana and it had so much flavor. I'm definitely going back here again.
The waitress had good suggestions. I made a meal of appetizers and everything was delectable- I had baked hummus for the first time. Great atmosphere with the decor and live music.
