This place was really yummy and very intimate. I enjoyed having a date night here especially because of how cozy you feel. The food and service were 10/10. Really hope to come back and try the mixed grill. The falafel needed a little bit more of flavor but other than that, wine was tasted and food was yummy
Wow! The food was phenomenal, the service was even better, and the ambiance couldn't have been better. I had never been, but a friend brought me with a large group. They handled the size of our group well, food came quickly and they were nothing but patient and friendly (especially for those who asked a lot of questions). I had the lamb gyro and it was perfect. The meat was amazing and I have no idea why the rice was so good, but it just was. I can't wait to go back and try something more daring!
Celebrated my friend's birthday. Very friendly service and they were great in accommodating my friend's celebration. The meat was juicy, tender, and very delicious. Generous servings. The restaurant is very clean and cozy.
I love this place! Authentic delicious Turkish food, comfortable place and people are super friendly, attentive and service is extraordinary! I feel home when I go every week.. strongly highly recommend!! 7 star Emre, Nergis ,Guler r the best
They have terrific food. I love their lunch special too, it is very generous and filling. For me, it can last the whole day, which is important because I can only afford to order food when I'm sick and can't cook. Thank you Sahara.
Recently moved to the neighborhood and went here for the first time. Really good food and best service. New favorite for sure! Loveee their turkish coffee. Their Manti is just heaven!! Iskander is also greattttt!! Will be back for sure!! Also their best part is their super friendly and helpful servers. Great ambiance overall.
We were there last night and it was incredible.. Mustafa was a gracious host who treated us like family.. a beautiful white cloth restaurant with exquisite authentic Turkish food. We started off with hummus and Turkish bread. Both excellent.. For our entree we had lamb shank With eggplant placed on top.. absolutely delicious!. Also Diced lamb with yogurt sauce and green pepper that was truly a big hit. Our sweet desserts were three different variations of baklava that were to die for. A nice cup of turkish coffee and our night was done.
I was looking for a place where I could have a light lunch with comfortable atmosphere and I came across this restaurant..... what a gem! Lovely atmosphere, wonderful staff and a terrific menu! I only wanted a light meal so I ordered a small shepherds salad.... it was huge! It was absolutely delicious, and the bread, the olive oil with olives were out of this world! I can hardly wait to go back there with friends for dinner!
When you go to a place, especially a restaurant, you expect a welcoming environment. This place has it, not only welcomes you, very warm atmosphere and prompt service. Food is spectacular!! When the food served to you, first you eat it with your eyes. It has to compliment your sight, then you taste it. Especially after you taste it, you know this food is made with love. Look at the dishes, how they are plated, very nice and i am impressed!! Iskender kebab was beyond my expectations, thank you!
