To start we ordered the Lava bread with different dips: - hummus - haydari - babaganoush My favorite was the haydari, it was delicious and fresh. For dinner I ordered the chicken Adana kebab. The meat was tender and well seasoned. It came rice, a side salad and mixed vegetable. My overall experience was positive and great.

The side of diced tomatoes that came with the kebab was surprisingly memorable -- I'm pretty sure those were the sweetest and juiciest I've ever had. They were probably shipped from the Mediterranean, lol. Service is truly genuine and kind. He brought us a free small side of babaganoush to try. It felt like he had read my mind because I was thinking about ordering it later in case there was still some lavas bread left. Will return!

We had the Lava bread and the select two which were the hummus and Muhammara which is a Puree of red peppers, walnuts, garlic, olive oil & pomegranate. $12 My husband ordered the Red Lentil Soup but he wasn't a fan, it tasted like Tomato Bisque. For our entree, I had the Lamb Sis Kebap which I shared with my mom and had enough to take home for lunch the next day. This was a big portion. My husband ordered the fried fish, it came with a big salad and rice. He said the fish needed some seasoning. The prices are reasonable for the amount and quality of the food. We also ordered Turkish coffee and the Kunefe which none of us had ever had and I must say it is my favorite dessert ever! The restaurant looks nicer at night. It has a better ambience. The lighting was super bright. Definitely had a great time and will certainly be back.

We visited Bosphorous winter park to celebrate my birthday. It was a Wednesday so it wasn't…read moredifficult to get a reservation. We were really excited based on all the amazing reviews. We ordered the mixed appetizer and the famous lavas bread. To our surprise we got a flat, deflated pita bread instead. Lavas bread is a signature dish of Bosphorous so I called the waitress and asked why the lavas bread was deflated. Answer: must have a hole. The manager came around so I told him the same and added that I had chosen this place for my birthday and was looking forward to the round and puffy lavas bread but got a pita bread. His answer: some time that happens. Sorry but for a restaurant of this level, they shouldn't let their signature appetizer leave the kitchen if it isn't perfect. End of story. And at least the manager should have cared but didn't. Otherwise, my husband and I shared a mixed grill, my mom had a shrimp dish she liked and they did bring me a dessert with a candle which was nice. If I go back to Bosphorous it won't be this location. Parking was Ok but it was also Wednesday.

I visited Sourdough bread House back in the day when they were in Maitland and was pleasantly…read moresurprised by their new, larger space. The food was just as good as I remembered from a few years ago. It can be difficult to find consistency in restaurants these days, so I really appreciate that the quality hasn't changed. It's nice to have a spot like Sourdough to add variety to the rotation of mostly American breakfast spots. I ordered the Sourdough Bread Plate, which is a large portion. Even though it's listed on the lunch menu, I was still able to order it for breakfast. Their bread is incredible, and everything tasted so fresh! The ezme is a wonderful addition to add to the avocado and labneh toasts. I also tried the Turkish coffee, but as someone who doesn't drink black coffee, it wasn't quite for me. I would recommend it mainly to those who enjoy strong, black coffee, though it was a nice touch that it came with a Turkish delight! My only minor critique is that the staff weren't around very much. Our server checked in on us once, and after waiting a bit for someone to bring the check, we eventually just walked up to the counter to pay. Nonetheless, everyone was very friendly!

This place was so delicious! The sourdough bread was my favorite part, with the crunch of it and…read morethe fluff. The turkish coffee was also strong for how small the cup was, with a little turkish delight to take the edge off. The bacon was beef, which was nice. Overall, the food was delicious. However, the service wasn't the best, there was about 3 customers in the restaurant when I went, but the server left all of us when we had to pay, leaving all of us to stand in a line waiting to pay. For a weekday, that felt a little odd. I think the food definitely makes up for it.

Lale is a small, cozy restaurant with the most delicious food. I am a huge fan of Mediterranean food, but had not had Turkish food before. I ventured to try out a few new things and everything was stunning. Fan favorites for me and the table included the mixed grill (even though it says serves two, if you order appetizers it can absolutely serve 3), the hummus (truly some of the best I've ever had), and the Kunefe. The Kunefe - oh my goodness - it's like nothing I've ever had before, but our table devoured it and stated that they just found their new favorite dessert. The service is attentive and you can tell that there is a lot of love put into the food that is served to you. I look forward to returning many, many more times in the future!

Wait time for me was about 10-13 minutes on that Thursday evening. Ordered 2 Thursday Combo Specials which is a pita meal-- one chicken and one gyro, then sides were rice and babaganoush (came with 8 lil pita triangles). Also came with a sufficient-sized container of sauce in each meal-- love that it was not drenched all over the pita instead as the bread could get soggy. Portions were HUGE and it was SO delicious that I literally could not stop eating-- I ate my whole meal in one sitting. The gyro was tasty, pita bread had the perfect texture, babaganoush was very refreshing and like an eggplant salsa, and the gyro pita stayed warm (even when I ate it over 30 minutes after ordering/picking it up). I am sad to have just now discovered this, but better late than never!!! It's on the way home for me, so this place will now be my go-to for Mediterranean cravings.

The Pastitsio was creamy and the tasty sauce was a little sweet, the gyro meat was fresh and the Tzatziki sauce helped top it all off. It was my first time trying Fila Dolmades, which also was good, but not sure about the grape leaves just yet. It came with two sides so I started things off with the lemon, chicken and egg soup called Avgolemono, which was very velvety and opened up the sinuses. Then a side of their green beans since I was craving something green after all the meat and pasta. And my partner really enjoyed his fresh classic gyro and Greek fries. The bathroom wasn't the cleanest, but public bathrooms never really are and the environment inside was all very comfy-cozy.
