Reviews Ephesus

Had a wonderful time on both times I was here. Tried the Lamb Donner (Gyro) and their Turkish Kunafa. Gyro was fairly good but Not very authentic, Kunafa was Yummy and the best. The owner or store manager is very nice and welcoming. Prices were not cheap I guess but about standard for a mountainview neighborhood. I'll come back for the Turkish tea and Kunafa again for sure!

Tldr: Go for the signature items, they're really good! Healthy option (non-signature): Chicken Shish Plate Went here for lunch with my boyfriend and a friend, and it was quite a nice experience. We sat outside since the weather was nice, but the downside was that the server just took forever to come take our order. Maybe he forgot we were there? I had to go in and tell them we were ready, but things were smooth after that. The food came pretty quickly, in about 10 minutes! There wasn't too much of a crowd at the time either since it was around 1:45pm on a Sunday afternoon, so that must have helped. In terms of the food, some items are better than the others. I ordered the Chicken Shish Plate, which was nothing special at all. It was 2 grilled chicken souvlaki skewers, with a cup of white rice and steamed brussels sprouts (and carrots which I asked them to drop). The chicken was cooked well, so that was a plus, but it was way too oily! I had to use two napkins to get the oil off. I was also disappointed that they didn't offer brown rice. The combination of the chicken with the vegetables and rice was nice though. It also came with a yogurt based sauce which was pretty good, but I didn't have much of it to avoid the calories. My boyfriend got the Chicken Beyti, one of the signature items on the menu, and he loved it! It looked quite exquisite, and had some yogurt in the center to serve as a dip. He said it was cooked really well and the red sauce was a perfect combination. My friend got the Moussaka, which he was a little skeptical about at first since it had eggplant, and he isn't much of an eggplant fan. It turned out that was the best part of the dish! He kept going on about how it went so well with everything else in there and didn't have the typical eggplant taste. He was very impressed! This too was a signature item.

We have been here many times. We are always served excellent food with great service. Very nice outdoor seating during these times. All precautions taken. Come here and enjoy the experience. I had the lamb beyti. My wife had adano lamb kebob. Both are very tasty.
