    The food is so delicious and authentic. I had the fortune of staying in Ankara, Turkey for a month and got hooked on pide. I was so stoked to find Lezzet Cafe to satisfy the cravings I developed. The service is attentive and courteous but allows for European style pacing. The restaurant is always clean and comfortable. Highly recommend checking it out!

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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 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.

Their vegetables taste like they came straight out of someone's home kitchen, not a restaurant kitchen. But let me tell you: the bread here is unbelievable. Warm, buttery, soft... it tastes like it's baked with love. They should honestly charge extra for it, but they don't. The Turkish tea is another comfort -- simple, hot, soothing. You sit there sipping it and you forget you're right next to one of Dallas' busiest stretches of road. The servers here? Handsome, kind, and attentive without hovering. They make the experience feel even lighter and more enjoyable. Ephesus is the type of place you come to when you need nourishment -- real nourishment -- and a break from the chaos of the city. Great prices, great portions, great energy. It's one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Dallas, easily.

We initially discovered the restaurant back in January when we dined there and immediately fell in love with the food, service, and atmosphere. That same night, we inquired about hosting a larger event (around 80 guests) and secured our April date with a deposit. From the very beginning, working with Jenna, the manager, was seamless. We communicated though text, which made planning easy and stress-free. Jenna curated a limited menu for our guests featuring popular dishes she personally recommended--chicken, beef, lamb, and vegetarian options--which made ordering simple while still offering great variety. She was also incredibly flexible with seating arrangements and accommodated exactly how I wanted guests placed. One detail I especially appreciated was her willingness to honor special requests--she arranged for a tres leches cake from a local bakery for dessert, which was a huge hit. On the day of the event, Jenna met me an hour early so I could set up extra decorations like flowers, a banner, and place cards. That extra time made a big difference and helped everything feel personal and organized. As guests arrived, we had them go directly to their assigned seats--which I highly recommend for a group this size, as it fills up quickly. The staff immediately began service with starters (hummus, salad, and bread), and they were quick to take both food and drink orders. Everything came out promptly, and the service throughout the evening was incredibly attentive and responsive. Every single guest had something positive to say about their meal and dessert, which says a lot when hosting a group this large. After dinner, the staff cleared tables efficiently, and we were able to enjoy the balcony space--an absolute highlight. It provided the perfect backdrop for photos with family, overlooking the Dallas skyline. At the end of the night, Jenna checked in with us to debrief, mentioning that the assigned seating helped her team provide faster, smoother service--which we definitely noticed. Not only did we have an amazing event, but we also felt like we built a genuine connection with her. She struck the perfect balance of being both professional and personable.

The music is nice and you can tell they really focus on creating a beautiful Mediterranean experience. The food is completely incredible and very unique. This is not your average Greek pita place.

It's pricey for an appetizer, but it is definitely worth it because it's so unique and flavorful. It was probably my favorite thing that we ate. Everything felt just a little bit overpriced for what it is. My baseline comparison is Hillstones and R&D, and this is definitely Hillstone's pricing, but not the same experience overall. My wife and I shared the lamb shank and the falafel platter and also had a side of cauliflower (which was incredible). My 3 year old had the kids item which was $18!?. it was all very very good. My wife and I had a glass of wine and the average price was $18. They also had no descriptions of what style of wine it was e.g. Cabernet Sauvignon. When I asked the server, he just recommended the Caymus. The service was transactional and something you would get at most fast casual restaurants. I get that a lot of the servers are not professional servers. For the mezze platter, it would've been helpful to have an explanation of what was on it. Basically they brought the food. They took our order and that was it. Parents: they have one kids meal which included four chicken kebabs and a side of either rice or fries ($18). The price felt very steep for a kids meal. I probably would rather have had half the portion size for half the price.

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.

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!
