stumbled in here randomly and did not expect the food to be fantastic, but it definitely delivered. i had the gyro platter, which came with rice, and a cucumber, tomato salad. he also brought over some warm turkish bread which was amazing :3 my bf had the same, in a sandwich version which came with a radicchio salad. the yogurt sauce was great with the meat and they're open 24 hours?! i will crave this VERY badly on drunken nights. will be back! they also have a lunch special :D hm. also hoping they have turkish coffee. read more

Best Turkish food in Brooklyn. Bursting flavors in every bite and their chicken gyro is just fabulous. Beats Memo's anyday. read more

Came in for dinner on a Friday night, walked past the kitchen area where all sorts of kebabs are on display, into the small but clean dining room. Ordered the small appetizer sampler which had 4 types of eggplant, delicious creamy hummus, white beans salad and a some type of yogurt dip all served with some excellent warm bread. When we ran out of bread they gave us more without asking. Next came the mixed grill plater with lamb chop, chicken and lamb kebabs and gyro meat served on a bed of soft rice pilaf with a salad. Also tried the tea and it was delicious with some baklava. This is a great place and a little under the radar as of right now. read more

The food here is very good. I love their Islander and baked pudding. Also I ordered the mixed app, everything was fresh and tasty.

Disrespectful staff. Very dismissive and rushed. Gave me attitude because they didn't have what I wanted in the first place and I took some time to decide what I wanted to get instead. Then when I came back to pick up my order asked me what I ordered and as I was saying it - turned to another person to ask them what they got. Finished their order first and then came back to asking me what I got again. read more

Open so late 5am? The chicken gyro and chicken kabab are my favorites here. Meatballs and the lentil soup are also good. Fresh bread is great and to die for. It's a small place and I usually get my order to go. For $8.00 you can't go wrong. The dinner dish comes with Shepard salad and rice. Always pleased. I'm thinking about going here now. read more

Currently known as Aksaray (can't remember former name) underwent a complete change by extending their mini cafe into a sit down restaurant with more tables, which is beautiful now. The waitresses are nice when needed and food is delicious as always. read more

Aksaray Turkish Cafe Restaurant - Lentil soup and small cold appetizer plate. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I just wanna say that I used to go here all the time. Their food was/is great, but the service and business mentality is definitely off. Whenever I physically go to the store and order lamb gyro plate, I ask for extra sauce. Let's face it, there's never enough in that tiny cup. The point is that they never have a problem with giving me an extra one or 2 cups. And now all of a sudden when I order delivery, they want an extra 50 cents for each cup. Are you kidding me?! And to make things worse, the cups ended up being barely filled. Definitely not a great way to cut corners. read more

Fast. Cheap. Delicious ! This is some BOMB Turkish food spot. Open 24/7, so even more perks for late night food cravings. This place is a real deal nitty gritty hole in the wall. I take the ride all the way here everytime when I'm craving for this type of food. It's so much better than the bigger local places from me on Bensonhurst/Baypkway like Istanbul Cafe&Restaurant. What you must get when you're here: Mixed gyro platter - everything taste so perfectly together on this place and my favorite is the yogurt sauce they give! I love the fact that it's watery but yummy, that way it mixes well and blends through all the food. Get a large and share it! Fried eggplant w/ sauce- soo good, done the best here. Bread always fresh and hot that they give you to this dish! Lamb Adana by itself. Lamb is awesome here. You'll be really satisfied and full. read more

First time i tried this place today. Because the place normally i go to which was closed today. I gave this place 3 star because the food. He gave me old bread and chicken was not fresh cooked. It was laying side of grill. Taste would be good if believe if was fresh. Plus the guy made it warm my bread on grill too. I will not go again. read more

The mixed grill is spectacular. Also the stuffed grape leaves, the Hadarik, and the eggplant with red sauce. Their specials are always great too. I lived nearby for four years and this was my second dining room, effectively. The people there are uniformly nice and hard working. read more

Been here many times before renovations. Used to be the best place to get food at night. After renovations place looks nice. Quality of food went down significantly. Had lentil soup that was very watery; bread was ok, cold and if they bake it just a little more - would be good. Main course - lamb gyro. Gyro comes with Rice that is too oily/fatty and a spoon of salad. Lamb was ok and nothing spectacular. Here is the catch: I was about to pay at the cashier when I ordered but they like "oh, just pay at the end". They include a service charge of 10% in every check!! Question: why? For what?? Another local place that tries to rip you off. read more

Aksaray Turkish Cafe Restaurant - Best bread in the area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Solid neighborhood Turkish restaurant that grew in size after renovations this year to provide ample seating for customers wishing to dine in. Even though the nearby competing restaurant Memo Shish Kebab gets more customers, I prefer the taste of Aksaray's food much more and would recommend it. Their sandwiches are delicious. Try to get your sandwich in Turkish bread and not pita bread. My favorite is the köfte (meatball) sandwich. Despite looking small, that sandwich packs a punch; it is very filling. Their lentil soup is delicious and comes with Turkish bread. Their grape leaves are okay; they're not that long and thinly wrapped, so I don't usually go for this dish. One thing that's interesting and sets Aksaray apart is their hot home-cooked meal corner. Most Turkish spots in NY just serve kebabs and mezes and call it a day, but Aksaray has a few hot meals to select from for the day if you feel like eating a more traditional Turkish dish. read more

Great food & the service is amazing. I popped in for an impromptu lunch there after a busy day of shopping. I had the eggplant salad (delish) & falafel lunch. The falafel was so crunchy on the outside & perfect texture on the outside. I'm not the most experienced in Turkish food, but I really enjoyed it. The pickled cabbage (I believe it's called, it's purple) was my favorite. I'm vegetarian & this place was very vegetarian friendly. read more

Considering what you get, it's worth the price but I'd prefer to go elsewhere. The chicken gyro plate with salad and beans was just $9.00, which is cheap but it didn't really fill me up. The food is tasteful but the portion size is small. The interior is nice and the staff are friendly. I'd prefer to pay more and not feel hungry. read more

Aksaray Turkish Cafe Restaurant - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Awful place. They touched my food with hands with no gloves . I talked to the manager , he said it's normal and they do it all the time!!!

Definitely not the same owners or Managment anymore . Food fell off kebabs are always hard not tender like they used to be . When you order something & specifically say you don't want that item & you end up getting it on your order that you didn't want . I don't get if they don't listen when people speak or order food but orders always come out wrong or something that I didn't want . Just being honest that's all . Used to come here past couple years . Don't bother going here go to memo couple blocks away . Better quality & they get the order right read more

Everyt time, they give different portion. Come on guys, make your portion stable. Also, you have no idea about tresleches dessert.

I was here 3 days ago because it was 430am wanted a good meal and this place is advertised as being open 24 hours. There were some other people getting take out. I asked for a seat and was told they are closed I until 11am . So I am dropping them down too two stars. There were several people at a table eating. I was very disappointed with the owners attitude. I'm not going back here read more

The best chicken shish kebab on rice EVER!. i love it more than that famous halah spot on 53rd/5th. hole in the wall spot, love that i can go there and get good food at midnight. Sucks that they had a check-in deal on Yelp! but they didn't even know about it. They were giving me a difficult time for getting a can of soda. since they had no idea about this deal. Super confusing but i would still go back for food. read more

Got a small mixed gyro platter and it was definitely a lot less food than the other Turkish joint down the block. The rice was cold, meat was only slightly warm and the bread was stale. Compared to what I could get for the same price at another place, this simply paled in comparison. I was also disappointed that the meat lacked flavor and was somewhat on the dry side. read more

Aksaray Turkish Cafe Restaurant - Small mixed gyro plate - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This place is open 24/7 which already deserves 5 stars. The food is surprisingly fresh. The cigars are one of the best I've ever had and comes out super crunchy. I usually get the mixed gyro over rice and salad. It's also really cheap which is always great. The only thing that bothers me about this place is that they are really stingy with their white sauce. If you ask for extra they look at you like you've just seriously pissed them off. Also it's a really shady crowd at night so bring a friend! read more

I enjoyed my food. It was cooked the way I like it. I had the lamb gyro with a salad. The only thing the waitress cleared the table too fast while we were still sitting down and through away our drinkbwhenbwebwere not done. And they wouldn't even give us a replacement. Shame on them... would I return? Yes but I'll keep my eyes on my drink. Lol. read more

This is a very nice place to get an sometbing to eat since it works 24/7. The food is really good, however it tends to sometimes get little dry (chicken gyro) and not too fresh. But because they provide service all of the time, it is very convenient read more

turkish grill and home style cooking, this place is a lil Mediterranean gem in the kings highway / E16 st area. I love the kofta (garlic and dill) grilled lamb, not to be confused with the adana (red bell peppers), and lahmacum (lil thin pockets filled with lamb). Open late for those night crawlers. It's a GO! read more

This is the absolute worst place ever the bread is 3 days old and the staff is exceptionally rude and talk to you as if you owe them something.....this place was great at one time ..... beyond great when they were just a regular place now they have remodeled and brought ignorant employees to the picture and it's become a complete catastrophe .. particularly the Asian blond girl at the register read more

Now under new management with a new name. It's now really bad. Who the fuck puts red cabbage in a sis tavuk sandwich? I mean you can't just buy lettuce like normal people? Onions okay but red cabbage? Even after I picked it all out the sandwich fell right apart...flavorless, greasy chicken...and a firin sutlac (baked rice pudding) that tasted like it was made with aspartame. Bleh. read more

I've been cheating on Memo's with this spot now for the last few months with ZERO guilt. What sets them apart for me is the freshly made pide. I saw what looked like someone's Turkish mom or auntie forming the dough balls one afternoon. The bread looks and tastes how bread was meant to look and taste. My DNA does little cartwheels when I dip it in their hummus or in olive oil. Their salads are reminiscent of those in the old country with generous amounts of shredded feta on top. I always order the small Kefte, which gives me three burgers over rice and salad - more than enough to feed two people. I've also had their kebabs, which are well seasoned and come with all the fixings if you get the platter. The only thing I didn't care for was the falafel, which I found to be a little overdone. I needed a lot of hummus and water to get them down and once they were, they sat in my tummy for hours. I would rather save the gastric real estate for more pide!!!!! read more

This is one of the better Turkish restaurant Brooklyn offers. Loved the lamb shish kebab and the lentil soup. I loved that they play Turkish music, some 90s classics from Turkey. The pide was warm and freshly baked! I would come back here if I come back to Kings Highway soon! read more

This place use to be really good before they renovated. I remember their rice was really good and addictive and bad because it was buttery with red onions, but not any more. It's still good but doesn't stand out much than the others. read more

Still as good as always. Came here with friends before a Yankee game. Everyones as friendly as usual and they even made sure we got everything quickly because we were running a bit late. Food was delicious. I had the Yogurtlu Kebab which was awesome. They also have the freshest Sigara Boregi I have tried in my life. Great place as always! There is also always parking outside! read more
