    Fried Eggs with Sausage ($14)
    Rachel L.

    First time having Turkish breakfast. I love the balance and variety. Unlike American breakfast, this felt so much lighter. Our party of 5 ordered the Nahita Special (comes with choice of borek, an egg dish, choice of pogaca, and 2 complimentary unlimited turkish teas). It also came with a plate with Simit, tomatoes, cucumber, black and green olives, cream cheese, white cheese, homemade jam, honey & kaymak. Bread here is also unlimited. We also got the fried eggs with sausage, cilbir (poached eggs) and achma with chocolate. The bread they have paired so well with all the egg dishes, cream cheese, homemade jam, honey & kaymak. The bread by itself wasn't anything special to me though, kinda cold and not the softest. My favorite dish here was definitely the cilbir! Poached eggs in a yogurt, so creamy and rich. It was absolutely packed on a Sunday around noon. We made a reservation for 12PM but it was really confusing to get seated; didn't seem like they actually reserved a seat. Very spacious inside otherwise. Overall: 3.6/5

    Pida Bread (unlimited)
    Elaine Y.

    Was looking forward to trying this place after seeing it hyped up on Instagram and I will say - it was okay, not great but between an ok and good? What's challenging is if you're unfamiliar with Turkish breakfasts - the menu is very confusing as you're not quite sure what everything else. You order at the counter and pay and then go to the dining area to get your free tea. Unfortunately the guy behind the counter had no interest in explaining anything to us and it was apparent with his attitude - not the friendliest nor welcoming. But we decided to go for it and got the Nahita Special which basically had mostly everything. The things we loved: The cheese Borek, I wouldn't mind trying the spinach one if we come back here. Huge fan of their Pida bread which is unlimited - you can get more at the counter when you want more. OH and the Turkish tea is unlimited as well. unfortunately I am not familiar with the best way to prepare or get my own Turkish tea? They had some made and some you got from the machine... tons of sugar cubes... Will stick with ordering coffee next time. We also loved the different cheeses paired with different breads, honey and that homemade jam!! SO GOOD... you can make up any tasty bite you want which I think is the nice thing about the turkish breakfast - you create your own bite each and everytime!! It's fun to try different combinations but I will say I love the salty and sweet combo so either feta cheese with jam or honey on the different breads was my favorite bite. What I didn't care for was the Shaksuka - I've had this dish before at other places and usually it's more flavorful with more eggs - this was bland runny eggs in a dish. Not my favorite and I wouldn't choose this again. And reading some other reviews the eggs with sausage didn't sound like a hit either so am thinking maybe we skip getting any egg dishes from here. I think now that I know more about the dishes I can maybe be more selective but overall it's not inexpensive but worth trying at least once.

    Nahita will absolutely ruin you. The bakery items will make you think about them days later, and you'll suddenly crave them one afternoon. Everything I tried was exceptional, and I left a few pounds heavier. Potato borek was my favorite. Lines are long on weekends, but moves fast.

    Nahita Breakfast Special for 2

    Had this on my bookmarked places to go after seeing so many posts about it online and finallyyyyy came to try it today! From what I've learned, you go to the bakery side to order your dish, pay, then bring your number stand to a table of your choosing on the restaurant side. I was super intimidated because it kind of felt like I was walking into a huge family lunch gathering with loud and cheerful chatter all around. Easing into my surroundings, I saw that folks served themselves tea and water at the counter with a small station for sugar options. You also get your own utensils and at the end if you have leftovers, your own to go boxes with tiny containers for the sauces or smaller side items. It was definitely a fun experience of being able to try so many items in a platter format. Taste-wise it was definitely more on the fresh, low-sodium, non-spice side. As someone who typically eats spice rich items, this was a refreshing contrast. But for those who do prefer the savory flavoring of food, this might be too plain for your tastes. Overall, I'd say that this is an experience folks gotta try at least once.

    Very busy on the weekend;. You can order ahead. Overall, pastries here are exceptional: 5/5: Cheese borek. Perfection. They keep it hot. Except it's too salty. 5: Triangle "carrot slice" pistachio baklava is excellent. Better than just about any baklava I have tried in the south bay. 5: The revani cake is great. It's better heated up in a toaster oven. 5: Tres leche cake. Excellent. Better than most Panaderias. 4: The Simit is like a bagel. But it tastes very rich and buttery. 4: chocolate achma. Must take it home and heat it up. 4: turkish coffee is ok. Not quite as robust as it could be.

    After shopping next door at the Granary for quilting Miriam's, my friend and I stopped by the Chico out Nahita. We both ordered the baklava to go. Many people were having Turkish coffee and pastries, it was a nice place for a social gathering, with plenty of tables to sit, eat, and chat enjoyably. We're definitely going to come back Shaun when we're not so busy. It's a nicely decorated place with a larger dining area next to the room with the display of baked goods. There is plenty of parking in the lot in front of the store.

    Turkish pastries and entrees with a side of coffee and tea, situated with a large dining space and complimentary WiFi. Nahita Bakery operates a humble storefront with large glass display cases showing off their delicious baked goods, fried pastries, and stewed meats and vegetables. As a first timer, it was a feast for hungry eyes! We came in on a weekday afternoon and were hankering for a snack before dinner. The staff welcomed us in and gave us a quick introduction to their offerings. My mouth was already salivating at the sight of the golden brown pastries and at the mention of olives and cheese, I was committed! We ended up getting a coupe of their items including achmas (pastry made with sweetened dough) and pogaca (pastry made with buttery dough) - one filled with olives and one with the feta cheese. We also got a borek (pastry made with phyllo dough) with ground beef and asked to be cut up so it can be shareable. The olive achma was fragrant and soft when torn into. The olives were flavorful and distributed well within the bun. The feta cheese pogaca was flavorful and was layered into bun. I think it would have tasted even better warmed but it was delicious nonetheless. The distribution of the cheese could have been better to better fill my mouth with those flavors. The borek was a star but too heavy for one person to eat. The fried dough was crispy and paired with the ground beef made for a hearty snack to go with something warm to drink. The other pastries and entrees looked good and although we didn't have the stomach space for it this time, we know we will be back when we are in the area to try something new. Perhaps we will get to try their coffee next time! Overall, Nahita Bakery does an amazing job bringing their Turkish culture through food to the South Bay. Their quality of work is shown in the food's presentation, ingredients, and flavors and the clean open dining space elevates the dining experience here whether you're in for breakfast, lunch, a snack, or dinner. Their large parking lot shared by other small businesses is fantastic for those looking to get in and out on some errands. If you haven't had a chance to try some Turkish pastries, you are in for a treat at Nahita Bakery!

    A relaxed Turkish Cafe/ Bakery that offers homemade Turkish baked goods and some of their signature dishes. My Turkish friend brought us here for her birthday celebration. She ordered the food for us to try. They were all tasty and freshly made. The cafe has self service area for the plates, napkins, tea, etc. They have lots of tables and seating. You also have to order at the counter and they will bring it to your table. The place is bright with natural sunlight. We got the Tres Leches for dessert and is soft and milky. Good texture and not overpoweringly sweet.

    I've been missing the breakfasts in Istanbul and was so happy to see that Nahita was serving Turkish breakfasts! We went here on a Sunday at 10 and there was already a line out the door. It didn't take too long, but there is only one line to order pastries to go and to order for sit down. There is a bigger room where all the tables are, but since it was pretty crowded they sat us at a bar area near the window. We got their breakfast for two and it was absolutely delicious. Their meat filled pastry and breads were amazing. I highly recommend if you haven't tried yet!

    Cheese burek
    Ruchi B.

    Good food and coffee. But more in the expensive side. A box of burek was 9$ . They have a lot of seating inside.

    Menemen
    Khiem N.

    The borek here is phenomenal. The mezes were great. The pogacha was fine. The simit was nice and chewy. I know like they pre-sliced everything for ease of sharing. But the menemen was a poor show. Way too eggy, not enough tomato. Service was fine. They made sure the tea was always present. However, I don't know how we're supposed to ask for more pida bread besides just stopping who I presume is the owner and asking for more. Additionally some of the chairs were heavily stained. Which is a shame because the tables themselves were clean. The wait here is long, if you're curious and don't care for bread and tea, then preorder.

    OMG, we have not been here for a year and this place has changed so much.. I'm a good way! When we were here a year ago the place was quiet and unassuming but now, the restaurant has expanded taking over the bubble tea space next door and despite the huge space, it was packed! The food was even better and fresh with the crowd and turnover. Inside was comfy and amazingly not loud at all! Too bad we live in Dublin else will be here more often! They charged $3.45 for a cup of Turkish tea but with free refill. Highly recommended for their bakery, borek was freshly baked and delicious!

    Parking is not an issue which makes visiting easy. That said, lines can get long depending on the time of day and day of the week. We visited on a Sunday morning and waited about 15-20 minutes, but it was well worth it. We ordered Nahita's Special Breakfast Plate and chose menemen as our special and spinach borek.It was absolutely amazing, comforting, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The borek was flaky, fresh, crispy and delicious. One of the biggest highlights is their unlimited tea option (paid upfront). Having freshly brewed tea available throughout the meal is a huge plus and really completes the experience. We ended breakfast on a sweet note with pistachio and walnut baklava (each), which were rich, fresh, and the perfect way to wrap up the meal. Overall, they offer great food, a welcoming setup, and an authentic Turkish breakfast experience. Even with the wait, it's absolutely worth a visit.

We looked over our menu and had a hard time pronouncing and figuring out what to eat. Our server was so patient with us and explained the entire menu, also told us that he is Turkish and showed us how to pronounce some of the names and letters After much thought, we ordered the acili muhammara (peppers and walnut dip with pomegranate molasses) , Uc Borek (phyllo rolls with 3 type of fillings), and the adana platter (lamb skewer with sides). The bread basket that came with the pepper and pomegranate molasses dip very good, and it was a great start. The pomegranate gave it a hint of sweetness which balanced the heavier pepper flavor The uc boreks were flaky and crispy, and came out hot af. loved the zucchini and cheese filling! The lamb was full of flavor and came with rice and a Greek salad. That being said, the flatbread had a lot of oil, since the skewer was placed on top. The lamb itself was soft and had no gamey taste. The greek salad complimented and contrasted the heavy and rich tastes. We also ordered the pistachio kunefe and ice cream for dessert. The texture of the kunefe was delicious! I loved the stretchy sweet mozzarella and the crispy crunchy of the toasted phyllo dough. We got a side of mastic ice cream to go with the kunefe. slight licorice and herby taste. It was interesting but still good though Thank you Meyhouse for an awesome intro to Turkish food!

Firstly, the fact that you get an unlimited supply of Pita and Zeit / Zaatar oil alone makes it feel like home. Very similarly, my Siti (grandma) always has us well fed right from the start, maybe over fed, but that's besides the point and very connected to our culture, you won't go hungry. But be careful not to fill up solely on bread, plus you can use your bread to soak up all the sauces later on. My absolute favorite dish is the Mansaf which is a creamy yogurt based lamb and rice dish. The meat comes out veryyy tender and when you mix it all together with the sauce and rice, it's rich and decadent. It's a large portion and can feed 2-3 as a main if other bites are shared. Bites I recommend- the Falafel, Kibbeh and Hummus as starters. The staff was very attentive and friendly, making sure we were rightfully fed, had drinks refilled constantly, we felt taken care of. They play lots of upbeat old school Arabic music that reminds me of my childhood. Check out Nancy Ajram if you haven't heard her music.

My brother got the Vegetarian delight and that looked better than my chicken Shawarma wrap because there was so many different flavors on his plate!! Granted, when he got his plate, it took the server a good 20 minutes extra until the pita bread was ready. Lol. My boyfriend got some lamb shish kebab dish that looked really interesting. There were different flavors and textures and he really enjoyed the dish itself. I did not partake. My dad and sister got some meat soup like dish that had lamb in it and they both loved their dish and said it had a lot of flavor and such a small size portion! They both took home leftovers! We were utterly stuffed and nobody had any room for dessert, but we will definitely be back again since this particular "Dish and Dash" can feed everything from Vegetarian to meat eaters!

This place is nestled in an industrial neighborhood and is probably really booming during the work week. We arrived around 1PM and there was a larger party of maybe 12 and another party of 4 and us...party of 9. There is patio seating and plenty of indoor seating. There was plenty of parking as they have a parking lot dedicated to their restaurant. Their menu is substantial. All the usual suspects of falafel, kufta, chicken and beef kabobs, humus & pita, etc. We ordered the following: 1. Sword fish plate: which was served with rice and vegetables. The fish was perfectly grilled and a great sized filet. 2. Falafel pita & falafel plate: the pita came with fries the plate came with veggies and rice. Both of the guests of our party that ordered these were quite happy with their order. 3. Beef kabob: these were large cubes of beef, that were seasoned well and grilled perfectly. You get a full skewer on a bed of rice and a side of vegetables. 4. Kufta kebob: which I ordered, and it was a large sized kabob that was bursting with flavor and juicy. On a bed of rice and a side of veggies. I wish they served basmati rice or a long grain rice and that the veggies were just grilled without the sauce. I felt the tomato sauce it was covered it overpowered the natural flavors of the array of veggies on the plate. 5. My mom ordered a 3pc lamb chops plate, and it typically comes over a bed of fries, but we substituted it for rice, and it came with the same side of veggies as the rest of ours. She said it was good and the size of the chops was decent. 6. I got there kind of late so the first half of our party ordered appetizers that we didn't get to try but I ordered an order of fried calamari and I must say my favorite part was what I think was a kalamata olive aioli. It was delicious! Will need to replicate at home. All in all, we were pleased and left satisfied and more importantly full. I'm sure we will be back!

The warm one was interesting, still enjoyable to him but not as much as before - beef souvlaki plate with fries instead of salad: I loved this! I asked for no lettuce, and the server said I could switch out the salad for fries instead. The beef was so tender and flavored well, super savory, and I absolutely LOVE the olive dip that comes with this dish. The fries were okay! I enjoyed dipping them into the olive dip. - swordfish souvlaki wrap no lettuce with fruit: option to get fries instead, but we got fruit. My mom liked it! I tried some of the swordfish and it had a nice light flavor, quite tender and very nice. I've also gotten the grilled branzini before, which is a whole entire fish. Warning that you may need to use your hands to eat this directly lol I really enjoyed this dish too! When we arrived, they mentioned we could sit anywhere we wanted. There was both indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outdoors so it was a tad warm but they provide shade. There is a tent as well with a plastic surrounding but as for any restaurant with these plastic surroundings, I always find the plastic smell so strong and offputting, so we sat at the tables instead where they have umbrellas providing a lot of shade. We sat next to a bougainvillea bush which also provides us shade and some entertainment as little birds hopped back and forth inside the bush and then out of it to nearby tables, looking for food. So cute! Parking can be found in the lot behind the restaurant, but the entrance is still found around the other side of the building, on the side of the outdoor seating. You can also park on the side of the street in front of the restaurant, but there's less shade. We arrived at a 3pm on a Friday with almost no one else there, so once our whole party was present we got service immediately. The food takes some time to cook but as mentioned, it's delicious. Overall a really cute restaurant!

It's not fancy, but the food is really tasty. make it five stars in my book because of their consistency, and good value.

On this visit, I ordered the chicken shawarma bowl, keeping it simple with just rice, chicken, and onions. Overall, the flavors are definitely still there, and the chicken tastes pretty good! However, I've noticed a few changes over the years that hold it back from being a 5-star experience. Back in the day, they used a wonderfully fragrant, long-grain basmati rice. In the last few years, they've swapped it out for a short-grain rice. It's a noticeable downgrade that feels like a cost-cutting measure, and it just doesn't compliment the dish the same way. Additionally, the bowl came with a side of soup, but unfortunately, mine was served cold. It's still a solid meal, but at almost $20 for just the bowl, it's getting pretty expensive for a casual lunch especially when the ingredient quality has dipped.

The chicken shawarma was flavorful and moist. Cant beat this at this price. Service was fast. There are seats available to dine in. Definitely a must try spot.

    I'm baaaack with another review! I'll keep this one short since I've been writing stories in my…read moreprevious reviews. Let's get into it. Double Combo Plate - Turmeric Rice - Chicken Shawarma and Gyro Beef - The Works (Everything included) - Tzatziki sauce - Falafel (Side) - Waffle Fries (Side) Okay, the presentation of the combo plate wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but I looked past it. Unfortunately, the chicken and beef were lacking in flavor and were pretty dry. The portions were generous, though the gyro beef was sliced pretty thin. The veggies were actually fresh, which was a plus. The hummus was on the lighter side flavor-wise, while the Baha Ghanouj had a solid roasted aftertaste. The Achilles spread was... interesting. It was very fatty with a garlic aftertaste. It just wasn't my thang. The waffle fries were cool. They were fried well and had a good crunch, but nothing special. The falafel, though, was pretty disappointing. I'm not sure if I just got a bad batch. They were very crunchy, but had a weird dish-soap aftertaste that I couldn't get past. I couldn't finish the rest. Sorry, but I'll be on the lookout for another Mediterranean spot.
