    The kunefe was deliciously sweet and crispy, while the shakshuka was light but flavorful. The food was great, but portions were small, so we had to order quite a bit to feel full. Cozy atmosphere and friendly staff!

    Great food, even better service. Phenomenal experience and the ambiance was really good.

    Food was amazing and came out pretty quickly. Staff was also amazing and really helpful! I got the turkish tea and the adana wrap, 100/10 recommend. Forgot to take a picture before hand but plates were cleared lol.

    For starters the food is perfectly cooked, authentic, and full of flavor. Everything was well seasoned and perfectly tender. The appetizer selection offers 11 items to choose from The Turkish coffee and tea were spot on. I was greeted at the door with welcoming embrace and provided with kind service. The atmosphere is very well lit during day outs and plenty of space to not feel crowded. Definitely a must try!

    The staff is very accommodating and friendly. We went on a Tuesday evening and seemed pretty empty. Everything was pretty solid, our main entree tasted fresh and everything came out quickly. I forgot exactly what we got but it was good.

    Tasty food, great location. This was our first time trying this place. We leapt eyeballing it as it drew our eyes at night, abd also in the day time. So we decided to try them out this Saturday for lunch. Boy are we glad we did! Service was Excellent, food was hit? Delicious and brought to us fast. We enjoyed everything we had. The dessert was wow! So good it's called KUNEFE! It's on their must try list. I would ask them to go light on the syrup, but that's just me. Looking forward to coming back here for more.

    I had a wonderful experience! I've never been to Turkey, so I can't speak to the authenticity, but everything was amazing! Started off with the appetizer platter--hummus, baba, dolma--simply because everything looked great and I couldn't choose. My main course was the Ispankali. So good and it'll make great leftovers. Finished with kunefe. Life changing! Looking forward to coming back--would love to try breakfast!

    I came here for brunch a while back to catch up with an old friend. This place surpassed my expectations, the food was delicious and there were many options to choose from. Overall I'd give this place 8 s/10 for the brunch. I'll definitely be back here to try some kabobs, although it looked a bit expensive. ------------ We all shared the classic shakshuka, grilled chicken cheese pie, and ispanakli (spinach and feta) pide. The shakshuka was amazing, everything I'd been craving, a solid 10/10. It also came with pita and veggies/feta on the side that went well with it. The chicken cheese pie was delicious, albeit a bit heavy, 8/10. The chicken was grilled and went well with the cheese. The spinach and feta pide was too heavily covered with spinach and a bit undercooked, 6/10. Would recommend ordering a different pide. For dessert we had a knafeh, and it was very good, 8.5/10. This is probably the most authentic and delicious knafeh I've had in DFW.

    We were in for Turkish coffee and were pleasantly surprised that they offer dessert complimentary with the coffee. Service was friendly and dessert was tasty. It's not the strongest coffee I've had but all in all, a good experience.

    We tried this restaurant for the first time and will definitely go back. The service was superior to any other we have had at other restaurants. The food was delicious. The pita bread, tea and dessert were outstanding. There are few places that I can recall where we (entire family) can saw we loved out meal, but this place is on our list. You will not regret it. The chicken was my favorite my son loved the lamb and my husband loved the rice and tea.

    I had great captions here but Yelp draft lost them. Your bad, Yelp.

We arrived early so the restaurant was not too busy but it started to fill by the time we left. The ambience remains upscale casual with a gracious greeting as you enter. We were given one of the half moon booths that faced outward to the restaurant. I ordered the hummus as a starter and it was very good. It's a mild hummus without a strong garlic element. It was very enjoyable. The wife started with babaganoush and loved it. The dip was smoky and very flavorful. For entrees, the kid had the Caesar salad and ate everything except the croutons. The wife had the spiced meatballs and loved them. The meat was tender and the sauce was very rich. I had the chicken kabob and I was in heaven. The kabob took quite a while to prepare, but it was worth the wait. The chicken was well marinated and very flavorful. Best of all, it had a smoky flavor from the char, but the chicken remained tender and moist. It was phenomenal. I wish I could have that every night. It came with sautéed vegetables that were prepared perfectly. And it included a white rice that had a rich buttery flavor. We all enjoyed our meal very much and we were happy to return to this restaurant. I need to put it in the rotation more often.

I visited this restaraunt for the first time and genuinely enjoyed everything I ordered. Starting off with appetizers, my friend and I ordered the pan shared halloumi cheese. This is paired with tomatoes and fig jam and is a wonderful accompaniment to the complimentary bread and olives served for the table. I'm a big fan of halloumi in general but this one was particularly cooked well and a must order for next time. For main entree I ordered Hunkar Begendi, which is sautéed marinated lamb tenderloin with red and green bell peppers over creamy eggplant puree. The lamb was in fact tender and perfectly seasoned and the eggplant puree went very well with the slight gaminess of the meat. I enjoyed this dish overall and it didn't feel too heavy, which sometimes is the case when I eat lamb. The pieces of meat were cut small enough while not being super tough, which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this restaraunt if you enjoy trying Mediterranean fusion spots!

We were greeted and seated right away. Service throughout was warm and attentive, our server checked on us a few times to make sure everything was good. They started us with warm, crispy bread and a yogurt-based dip that was quite flavorful. I ordered the lamb shish kebab platter (well done), and we also tried the chicken shish kebab platter. Both came with buttery rice, a fresh salad drizzled with olive oil, and yogurt sauce. The chicken was tender and properly seasoned, but the lamb was the highlight. Lamb can easily turn dry or overly gamey if not handled right, but this was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor even when cooked well done, exactly how a good shish kebab should be. I skipped dessert this time, though they offer a few options, and I noticed what appeared to be a buffet setup, which I'm curious to try next. Overall, a solid, well executed Mediterranean meal. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

Fortunately, they had some space on the patio. It was a hot night however they had couple fans to blow away some heat. Food: Started with a salad which was fresh, flavorful and with large chunks of beets, watermelon, and feta cheese. Great appetizer. My wife and I wanted to try a couple of items to share for the main entree, I had branzino. The whole fish, filleted, and grilled. The flavor was rich, without being overly salty nor too oily. The sides 1. Grilled Branzino - Served with quinoa arugula salad 2. Ali Nazik- Chargrilled lamb shish over smoked eggplant puree served with bean salad on the side Both were fantastic. The lamb was cooked just right and turned out moist and tender. The eggplant puree was a great texture; neither too smooth to lose its integrity nor too chunky. The staff was attentive and helpful. Verdict: 9/10: Would definitely go back but with a reservation or in a mindset to sit in the heat on the patio. Also, the deboning process for the fish could've used a little more care, but that didn't take away from the flavor.

The good : flavors were delicious. Our server was attentive and the entire staff seemed happy to have us.The flat bread pide (at another table) looked sumptuous . Chicken shish kebab chunks were cooked well and seasoned nicely and were juicy. The complementary bread is superb. The yogurt dip that went with though was not enough for us to have more than a few bites. Needs improvement: there was no reason why the accompanying (delicious) bean and cucumber salad was 24 to 48 hours old with Limp cucumbers and parsley and flavorless tomatoes. Needs to be fresh daily and use cherry tomatoes or Campari tomatoes for flavor and crispness. Turkish Rice was meh. It was cooked properly but not a whole lot of flavor and perhaps I was expecting more of a Lebanese style pilaf with butter, nuts, spices, onions, etc. to brighten it up. Beyti minced beef had good flavor, but why did they have gristle in it? My dinner companion complains was that this was a cheap cut. The butcher supplier is not paying attention. It also could've used a little bit more sauce on the bread wrap pieces for added juiciness. We ordered the.Tzatziki yogurt dip which helped add juiciness . There was no reason why the Turkish red wine came out warm. I realize that we were in a Dallas summer at 95° at 9 PM and the restaurant was slightly warm but still. Lastly, the owners might think about mitigating the hard surfaces that reflect sound in the restaurant. It's a lively place, but we were subjected to the group of six women who were drinking enough to be loud and screechy across the room - all too common across the city -and I did not need to hear them yukking it up. The place was full on a Saturday night, which bodes well for this restaurant. The staff attitude is good, but I'm afraid this will not be a repeat for me and my companions. .

We arrived as a party of five on a medium-busy Sunday evening. The tables were a reasonable distance apart, and the noise level was also fair. The food was delicious. Having not experienced authentic Turkish food before, the mention of authenticity made my group eager to give Cafe Istanbul a try. Ordering was painless and easy. There are entrees for individual meals and easy options for groups to share family-style, which we opted for. We ordered an appetizer platter with beef meatball, baba ganoush, hummus, and phyllo borek (ground beef with spices and onions inside a deep-fried phyllo wrapper). It was a bit odd that there were different amounts of each (2 meatball, 4 phyllo borek, and dollops of baba ganoush and hummus were only enough to get a small taste each) but it was balanced out by the portion size of the entree. For the entree, we opted for the mixed grill plate to share. It had chicken shish kebab, lamb kebab, adana kebab (ground lamb, pepper, and spices), grilled chicken wings, and chicken beyti (ground chicken and spices, grilled). This was served with rice and red cabbage on the side. Individually, each amount seemed small, but given that this plate was meant for two, we were still pleasantly full after polishing this off. Everything was well seasoned. The meat was juicy and perfectly cooked. I'd especially recommend the chicken beyti. The here service was swift and outstanding. We were quickly offered menus, waters, and utensils. Our waters were refilled quickly, and the kitchen took our request to plate the lamb separately in stride. The moment after my fork fell to the ground, a member of their serving staff swooped to fetch it (it was behind my chair) while another brought me a new one. It was a very well-rehearsed dance. Worth mentioning is also the fact that there were two separate groups dining that evening (a large family, and a group of friends) to celebrate a birthday. This is a restaurant worthy of birthday celebrations :) Overall, the portions are decent and filling, the food is delicious, and the service is exceptional. Consider visiting this restaurant next time you're in the area; you'll be glad that you did!
