The food is also quite good, from the presentation to the taste. I love the lahmacun, it's thin and chewy and, together with the gyro plate, was perfect for filling us both up. Be careful of the little yellow peppers, though. I took a bite and instantly bought some yogurt to cool the heat. The decor has a vibe is inspired by the streets of London with the photo booth. Worth checking this out if you're in the area and need to grab a bite to eat.

The garlic sauce was not like the ones you are used to from the Middle East, but a different type. The tahini also is not like you would get at a Lebanese restaurant. I think this is Turkish based. However overall you are getting a good deal and tasty food for what you're paying. Are the place is clean, new, nicely decorated and spacious. Workers seem pretty friendly. Credit card is accepted here. It's in a plaza with lots of parking. I recommend this place.

The hummus with mushroom was also very unique, it tasted very earthy and balanced the pita very well, providing some chew and meatiness to the dish. The pide was also very nice and crispy, and you can taste each ingredient separately on the pide yet it all melds together with the fragrant spices combine it all. Service: There was plenty of seating available in the restaurant, and the people were all very friendly. As it was our first time, the server helped provide some recommendations and walked us through some favourites on the menu. Atmosphere: The place was a nice and clean, but nothing spectacular in terms of design. Seats were comfortable enough, although the tables were fairly close together.

There is construction on 400 so it can be tricky to get here. You might have to go one exit passed Steeles and come back but it's worth it. Because of the time I went , there was only on other person in the dining room. You can see back into the kitchen. I like that be because the dining room usually smells pretty good. The server was from Turkey and he had a bit of an accent which made me think the food would be a little more authentic. On the recommendation of the server I got the Cokertme Kebab. It doesn't quite look like it does in the menu picture but it was really good. The beef strips were well seasoned and tender. The yogurt complimented the beef very well and the chips added good texture. I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

The restaurant has a beautiful interior and high ceilings. Service here is little to none. Which is unfortunate since their food is so good. After taking our orders we were never checked on. Asked 2 different servers for extra serveware and never got it. Had to ask more than once to get water. Overall the service is BAD. What saves this place is definitely their food, as it's very delicious. Definitely start with their variety of dips for sharing. Here's what we got: Mix Appetizers 5/5 - Came with hummus, baba ganoush, spicy mashed and haydari. All delicious and served with fresh bread. Mixed Pide 5/5 - This was also great for sharing and tasting the variety of pide options. Came with cheese, minced meat, and sausage. Mix Kebab for 2 5/5 - This was more than enough to share with the five of us, as portions are large, especially when you are ordering other sides. A variety of meats including lamb, chicken, beef served with rice and salad. The meal ends with complimentary tea. Overall, delicious spot with great food but just lacks any type of service. So good that I'd still come back for their food.

Food - 5/5 Chicken Leg - 5/5 - My family and I love this chicken... we used to get Naan & Kabob all the time, but this is our new favourite now. It is so juicy and tasty, got the perfect middle eastern flavour profile, especially with some sumaq on the rice. The rice is nice and fluffy as well, it all goes really well together. Koobideh Kebab - 4.5/5 - Again, probably our favourite Koobideh kebab in GTA. To be fair, we haven't had much Persian food, but we found something we like, so will probably continue coming here.

The plate had a good variety of meats and no BS (unlike some other restaurants that throw fries on the plate and call it 'delicacy'). They also didn't dip everything into lamb oil to "enhance" the flavour - you could actually taste the meat itself. The beef was soft, the chicken was juicy, and the lamb was tender. They also offered free naan and dipping sauce, which was very nice. For dessert, we had baklava, $4 for a small piece, but we had no complaint considering the free appetizer earlier.

We ordered "Mix Appetizers" to share, which was served with freshly baked Turkish bread. Spicy Mash had a bit of a kick, but not too spicy, which we enjoyed. Baba Ganoush, Haydari and Hummus were fresh and tasty. For main, we ordered "Efendi Lamb Chops", "Efendi Meat Shish Kebab", "Beyti Kebab", "Sac Tava" and "Spinach and Cheese Pide". Efendi Lamb Chops And Efendi Meat Shish Kebab were served on a hot sizzling plate which was really fun to watch and they were the most tender, juicy and flavourful ones we have ever had. Pide was fresh and the cheese was very tasty. Beyti Kebab had a bit of a kick to it which we really loved; we also enjoyed the combination of yogurt and Spicy Mash; it was a great combination with the veal wraps. Sac Tava was a great combination of cubed beed, green peppers and spices. We loved every bite of our food. We ended on a sweet note with freshly made "Kunefe" and of course Turkish coffee. Kunefe was very delicious and right amount of sweetness. Turkish coffee was served in beautiful cups and we enjoyed both.
