If you want something that feels authentic and are willing to overlook some small cosmetic/ambience nuances for great food, this is your spot. The food is delicious and consistent every time! We usually get the grilled chicken kabobs which are always so juicy! I also love the cheese cigarras (can't remember how to spell). They give you complementary bread which is also delicious. Really wonderful, authentic place with great staff!

I stopped by on a Sunday night and it was very quiet, only one other couple dining in. We were…read moreseated right away and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The space could use some cosmetic updates, but everything was clean and the food was clearly made fresh, which mattered more to me. What we ordered:* Super Mix Grill* Falafel appetizer* Kunefe* Baklava The mix grill was the standout. The meats were tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The flavors were a little different from the Turkish food I'm used to from friends' family cooking, but still very enjoyable. The salad that came with the meal was okay, but not my favorite. Desserts were excellent, both the kunefe and baklava were absolutely worth ordering and a great way to end the meal. My husband said the desserts were a little sweet but they are supposed to be so I ignored him but be prepared for that. Overall, we enjoyed our experience and would definitely give it another try. This feels like a good spot for a low-key, no-wait dinner when you're craving Turkish food.

They offer a great variety of options at very fair prices, and the owners are incredibly kind and welcoming. The food itself is outstanding. I ordered the chicken platter, and it really hit the spot. The yellow rice was perfectly cooked with a soft, ideal texture--and in my book, if you can nail the rice, you know the rest of the food is going to be good. The chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. I'll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!

The chicken was super dry, it came with some lettuce & the lettuce was limp. We came in around 8:15 and the restaurant closed at 9. At around 9 we heard them closing which was quite loud, I was asked if I wanted a box before I was done eating and when paying the server asked me for my card on the spot and had to let me know they were closing (which we could see). Also some of the tables were dirty when we walked in. This place needs improvement, I'm not sure why they have such high ratings -- I've worked as a server & in the food service industry for years also.

As sides I got mujadara and roasted vegetables which were also tasty. I'll be back for takeout for sure in the future.

I usually order the two chicken skewer kabobs with rice, a super salad, and the jalapeño cilantro hummus. The hummus is *so* good that I often grab a small container to take with me when I travel. Everything tastes incredibly fresh, and you can really tell they use quality ingredients, especially with olive oil as a base. They offer both fresh pita and gluten-free pita, which is great for anyone with dietary restrictions. Honestly, I could make a meal just out of all the sides--they're that good. The menu is consistently solid, and I feel like you really can't go wrong with anything you order. It's a perfect spot for a low-key lunch or dinner. Also worth noting: on Tuesdays, kids eat free with a paying adult, which is a great bonus for families. Highly recommend!

The portions are very generous, so if you can't finish your meal, it's easy to take the leftovers home. They conveniently provide to-go containers and bags for customers. One thing I found a bit challenging was the ordering process. There is a huge selection of food, which can be overwhelming for first-time visitors. I would have appreciated a little more guidance from the staff when making my choices, as I think it would have helped me order more confidently. Overall, it's a good place with plenty of options and great portion sizes.
