Friends recommendation. Used to be Le Pho, located on Edward and Westminster, across Jack N the Box, this Mediterranean eatery is easily miss since there's no sign when passing through. Plenty of parking. Mainly outdoor with tables inside and outside. Only one all-gender bathroom. Known for their kebobs and breakfast. Yes! That is not mistake, waiter confirm that's how Mediterraneans separate dollars and coins by using comma instead of period. Didn't know that. Had to get the servers attention to order and ask for the check. Order the beef pide and lentil soup while friend got chicken pide Lentil soup is tasty, bread was like sour-dough and comes with lemon. Beef pide takes like pizza but with beef. There is an item where the pide is actual pizza. Water is free. Overall, good experience read more

Never had such authentic and delicious Turkish food!! The stellar reviews explained a lot once we tried the food. Complementary black tea was great, too. Service is always great. Super friendly small restaurant with plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Everything is so delicious, you can't go wrong with any order. Will continue to come back!! read more

Food here is amazing and super authentic. It is spiced differently than a typical Mediterranean place which makes the flavors taste more unique. The spices are very aromatic and everything tastes very fresh and well seasoned. Something to note is that the yogurt drink is basically Salted unsweetened yogurt mixed with water or plain milk to thin it out. If you're expecting a sweet yogurt, this is NOT it. It tastes savory and kinda tastes like drinking salty mozzarella cheese to me. It was alright, but not what I was expecting. read more

A hidden gem in HB, Anatolia serves us delicious Mediterranean cuisine, with each dish being made to order, with extremely fantastic flavors. I had a craving for Greek styled food, and my brother in law recommended me this place. Service was quick and easy, and they made some great recommendations. Dishes here are definitely made to be shared, so bring some friends to enjoy each one! Place inside is a bit small, so come early because it does fill up! Had the chicken pide which was so good, and the kebab couplet was so tomato-y and feels good! read more

Such a cute restaurant. The whole dining area is an outdoor covered patio. The food comes out QUICK! The Lahmajun (flatbread) is really good and a nice starter. The Beef Lulah / Adana with bulgar is a must-try. The meat is super tender and tastes amazing. The servers are nice too. read more

I been on a binge for middle eastern/Mediterranean food and I'm so glad part of my journey has brought me here, to a quaint and homey restaurant serving some dishes I continue to discover today. Not pictured but on one of my visits I got the couplet kebab, which the tomato sauce and thick yogurt paired together super insanely well. On the next visit, my friend and I got the kebab platter with the shakshuka mezze, which was honestly the MVP we put that sauce on damn near everything. Our server was friendly, chopped it up, and brought everything on in quick fashion. Will come back to try the seafood and pide read more

Do NOT sleep on this quaint, but hugely fantastic spot. Seating may be limited, but the menu & flavours definitely are not. The dining area is surrounded by glass on three sides, which gives it a great ambiance. The food was authentic & the beef & chicken kabobs were some of the most tender I've ever had. Lamb chops were excellent as well. If you've ever been reluctant to try lamb, these would be a great first experience. Both the chicken & beef pide were also great. read more

Outstanding! This hidden gem is absolutely incredible!! The food here was so a key delicious. We tried everything. Everything is made fresh in house and you can taste it! We had the lentil soup, Greek salad, the lavash, fries, pite bread, cig kofte (a personal favorite!) chicken shish, steak shish, the bulgar, and the rice, and the Anatolia mezze When I tell you. That I would drive from las. Vegas to have this at least once a month. That's no joke. It was incredible! The special Anatolia mezze is a must!!!!! Being able to try all the dips was my favorite part! The staff here are the best! Everyone is so friendly and comes to check in on us frequently. We were able to sit in the outside on the patio and enjoy the day. We are a family of 11 and it was plenty of space for us all to enjoy our delicious foods. read more

Best bread ever..... We were in the mood for Mediterranean and landed on this spot semi close to the house. Out the gate when the hummus and pastirma came out, we were blown away. The bread was thick and warm and soft. And the hummus was fresh, perfect thickness and flavor. First time trying lahmajun, and it was bomb. So flavorful with all the fresh veggies. Then lastly, the meat platter for 2. All was flavorful, but the lamb chops were a bit overdone. Regardless we will be back. Decent service and cute little spot. read more

My Daughter and son in law met in Turkey, they've been dying to find a restaurant that reminded them of that time. Well, my wife found this restaurant and it was AMAZING. Our first time trying AUTHENTICATED Turkish food. Authenticated? Yup, the young lovers confirmed it's the best so far stateside. The enclosed outdoor dining was beautiful, not your typical experience, but without going grande it was perfect. The servers were helpful, they were kind, compassionate, the customers around us were remarkable, all joining in on the birth celebration. read more

We drove all the way from MV to this place because of their rating for breakfast! I was Very disappointed by the whole experience. We ordered the breakfast tray, an omelet, a cheese tray since there was barely any in their breakfast tray. Then waited for bread to come but apparently the bread was a separate order. The main dish that we were interested to order was also not available since you had to order it a day in advance. The service was terrible and I had to go in and ask for bread since they brought the food without any bread. The ambiance is just very casual but they had an outdoor sitting which we used. All together, it was not really worth the drive and the try but this review is only based on their breakfast menu. read more

Good food ,but 42$for 4 lamb chops and 2 dollops of mash potatoes is rediculous,I get the most amazing lamb chops,28 for 4 and 41 for full rack (8pieces) with salad amazing rice,and hummus and pita bread for less.I'd come back but lamb chops are my thing.nsybe at that price throw in a lentil soup and dessert.i eat at many Turkish,Istanbul,etc .. places,I don't mind paying for good food but sorry 10 dollars a lamb chop is not gonna happen,wasn't even 2 dollars of mash potatoes.just read more

Ordered Kabob Plate and it was fantastic. Tasted authentic and never had Turkish food in US this good.

It's a small restaurant with indoor and outdoor. Every one there was very attentive and accommodating. Food was super good-flavourful and on-point. It's a nice place to grab lunch or dinner and just catch up. I'd definitely recommend the lamb. read more

We were excited to eat here based on reviews. These are the facts. We ordered the sea bass. Way over cooked and filled with bones. You can see it in the pic as we could not eat a good portion of it. The pizza looking item had so many bell peppers on it the taste was way over powered by the bell peppers. The shrimp tempura was the best item. Service was terrible. We had to ask many times for plates, silverware and our check. I also ordered a black tea that never came. A huge argument broke out between the staff and a customer at a table behind me where the staff kept asking the customers to leave. All in all it was a very poor experience. I have no idea how the reviews are so good when our experience was so bad. read more

Came here last night for dinner. Space is small and it seems like you are seated outdoors even though there's a roof over our head. We ordered: 1) special Anatolia mezze $28 - 5 different appetizers to share, includes hummus and others. Pretty good. 2) Anatolia special mix kebab for 2 people $48 - the chicken and lamb was the best, tasty. Comes with bread, rice, onion and salad. 3) French fries $6 - a big bowl of large fries 4) Greek salad $16 - husband ordered this, expensive for salad 5) boba ghanouj $7.50 - love mashed eggplant 6) water bottles X 2 at $1.99 each - expensive for bottled water Overall service was friendly and food was decently good, reminds us of our visit to Turkey but food in Turkey is still better.

OMG. three of us had lunch. We ordered the mixed grill for two, humus and tzatziki and Greek salad. The meat was perfectly cooked with rice and lentils and pickled red cabbage Then food was stellar.

I'm liking how Turkish cuisine is the newer thing in the food scene. There are more Turkish restaurants popping up in Orange County and I'm definitely a fan. After reading the recent reviews and viewing the pictures, my wife and I decided to try Anatolia for the first time the other night for dinner. We were the only ones there for a while and the dining area is outside in a semi closed area. The menu is easy to navigate and there are plenty of pictures on the menu to help make your choice easier. The all male staff are nice but communicating with the first server was a little challenging because their English was spotty. I need to learn to speak a little Turkish. We started with the Lamacun appetizer. We never had it before, but it was excellent. Sorry, no pics of this one. I ordered the Beef Lulah Adan entree and my wife ordered the grilled salmon entree. The portions are generous and the fresh herbs, onions, and spices make their dishes sing. We finished the evening with their home made Baklava and I washed it down with their Turkish tea. I love Turkish tea. We are so glad it's fairly close to our home and look forward to returning and trying their breakfast. read more

This place breaks the star rating scale.... Truly deserves 10 stars at least! Not only is this THE MOST AUTHENTIC Turkish food I've ever had in the US, but the chefs cut no corners in preparing it in the hand made from scratch ways it's meant to be! The service is excellent and very helpful, clearly taking pride in the establishment, and the ambiance reminds me of being in a Mediterranean town, maybe Marmaris, enjoying the light and weather around you! read more

Great food and service. We've eaten here once and had togo and both times were great. A true hidden gem!

Disgusting! My party and I did not even make it in. The restaurant was surrounded with trash, including the front door. Obviously I can't rate the food (literally). I can only imagine hope unsanitary the restaurant is. I also can't rate the service, but with the lack cleanliness from the entry, I can imagine how lazy the staff are. Absolutely not ok! read more

Brand new place in HB and opened for~ 2 months now. What a great addition to the neighborhood. The menu has lots to offer with too little time. We're definitely coming back to explore the rest. We had the Simit Omelette which tasted like Shakshouka, a variety of soft breads, and Turkish coffee. As you enjoy your selections, don't forget to drizzle olive oil, pomegranate vinegar, and paprika. Job well done Anatolia, hats off to you!!! read more

Late afternoon lunch with my MIL in the covered patio. Lots of vegetarian options. MIL enjoyed her shrimp dish. Yummy desserts!

Authentic Mediterranean food. Love the fish love the flatbread like dish. Will come back for the kebabs. The fish took a little long so they must have had to go fish it from the ocean. Otherwise they atmosphere on the services great atmosphere is not bad despite being in a older strip mall across from the old Westminster Mall. read more

My first time trying Turkish food. I have been eating Persian food my entire life and I could taste similar spices and aromas in the tea, lentil soup, and shrimp appetizer that I ordered. Everything was flavorful and cooked fresh to order. I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu. The service was attentive, friendly, and all were from Turkey. I feel so blessed to have authentic food prepared by such knowledgeable staff. read more

Food was delicious. Ladies helping us were VERY nice. Place was clean and plenty of parking. Would definitely go there again.

My wife and I had dinner at Anatolia, and let me tell you -- don't be fooled by the fact that it's a new spot or that it might look like a small, unassuming "hole-in-the-wall." This place is *the real deal*. The food was absolutely amazing-- rich flavors, perfect seasoning, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. The owner is truly a gem. He made the whole experience even better with his warm personality, fun conversations, and genuine hospitality. He personally recommended all the dishes we ordered, and every single one was spot-on. Honestly, he could've told us to try the entire menu and we wouldn't have regretted it -- and we definitely plan on coming back to try more! To top it all off, he surprised us with their signature Turkish tea and coffee, which was such a thoughtful and authentic touch. If you're in Huntington Beach and craving delicious Turkish/Mediterranean food, highly recommend giving Anatolia a try. This place deserves all the praise it can get. read more

I'll start off by saying that the food was really good here. We got their lahmajun (this was my first time having this so nothing to compare it to but I thought it was really good- it came with veggie sides to put in and everything was really fresh. My Turkish friend I came with said it's one of the best she's ever had), lamb chops (cooked to perfection but a bit bland, had to add salt), beef kabobs (my picky son gave it a thumbs up and he loved the rice it came with). However service was abysmal. We all came here extremely tired and hungry. While the lahmajun came out quickly, the lamb chops and kabob did not come out for a very long time. After everyone finished their lamajun and the other two waiting for their main entrees still hadn't received their food, I had to go up and ask about it. First they looked confused and then said they would check on it. They came out many minutes later and said it was because their kitchen was backed up and it would take another 10/15 minutes and gave us the option of canceling the order since everyone else was done with their food. To me it was evident that they had forgotten about the food, not that the kitchen was backed up- their restaurant did not have that many customers to be backed up and other customers who came after us getting their meat entrees way before, and also the confusion when I asked and then giving me the option to cancel since that prob meant they hadn't even started on it all points to that fact. I appreciate honesty in customer service, this did not feel honest. The two who had ordered their food were unfortunately starving so we decided to just wait for the food. They apologized but no other compensation for making two people wait for everyone else to finish dinner to start theirs. Really unpleasant experience for our party. They do charge for water and pita. The main seating area is also outside. There is no indoor seating. Luckily temperature was nice when we went but not sure how this would be in the winter or hot summer. read more

Super nice and cozy! we had at least three servers help us out and check in on us to make sure we were doing okay. The place is fairly small but spacious, and looks very clean. the layout and theme feels like you're in Istanbul, Turkey. We were welcomed as soon as we walked inside, brought menus, and offered tea, on the house. Servers checked in periodically to make sure we were okay and if we needed anything. The first thing we got was the rice pudding. sooooooo goooood. I don't really have anything to compare the rice pudding as it's my first time trying Turkish rice pudding, but I will say it was amazing. My friend and I had a kunafa craving which is the real reason we stopped by to try this place out. But definitely coming back to try the entrees and other things on the menu! read more

We came here for dinner and were pleasantly surprised. Right away they bring out complimentary bread with a dip--warm, puffy, and absolutely addictive. For starters we tried the Albanian liver and a sujuk pide. Both were excellent, full of flavor, and cooked just right. For mains, we shared the Beyti and the four-person combination platter, which came loaded with different meats and chicken. The ingredients were fresh, the salad crisp and flavorful, and the overall quality of the food stood out. The restaurant itself is small, maybe 30 seats inside, and it feels almost like sitting on a covered patio--so bring a jacket, it can get chilly. Service was friendly and quick, and the prices are very fair for the amount and quality of food you're getting. We ended the meal with Turkish tea and kunefe, which was a perfect finish. All in all, this place is a gem in Huntington Beach. Fresh food, big flavors, and a cozy local feel. We'll definitely be back. read more

5+++++ Stars. I've lived in Southern Turkey. This was authentic delicious high quality food!! We began with babaganush appetizer which was homemade. Real chunks of eggplant and a wonderful Smokey taste served alongside fresh authentic Turkish pide bread. We ordered the family meat combo with lamb, steak, chicken and Adana kabob served with salad, bulgur rice pilaf, salad and bread. Huge portions!!! We had the cheese pide and beef pide. The flavors were fantastic. Again - they are big! We finished the meal with Kunefe and Turkish cay - black tea. The kunefe was the best I have ever had in the US. Preorder because it takes a while - they make fresh. Fresh pistachios sprinkled on top. I would have liked a tad more syrup but in the end, our table was fighting over the last few bites. We are certainly coming back for their Turkish breakfast! The table next to us ordered that and it looked amazing. We ate our food too quickly and I forgot to take photos. Great friendly customer service to top off a great dining experience. read more
