Fantastically fresh food that's family-friendly…read more Food: Had a couple of dishes to share, starting with the garden salad that was very fresh and cool, perfect for a home summer day yet with a hint of sweetness that made it bright and vibrant. 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.

Amazing food experience of real Turkish food. We had a feast and thoroughly enjoyed our time here…read morerelaxing after a long week. The owner was our host and he was so friendly while juggling multiple tables and training new staff. We started with Baba Ganoush and Coban Salad, adventured into the unusual with the Kelle Paca and feasted on the Chicken Shawarma and Beyti Kebab. Quantity is generous with each dish and we ended up packing up the equivalent of one full meal between all the dishes to take home. I love that they have a coal grill right in the restaurant, grilling up delicious meats fresh to order but there was no smoke in the dining area. Also, there is a cafe area and a bar area when not eating, as their were patrons hanging out and relaxing in the spacious area. My personal favorite for the night was the Kelle Paca as I've never seen it in any restaurant. It is a hearty tomato based soup made of head meat. It sound crazy but is absolutely delicious! I like the different chunks of meat, all slightly different in texture and taste. End the meal with some traditional tea!

Their naan/bread and hummus was the star of the show for me and I'm not even a fan of hummus. They kept giving us refills without having to wave them down.

What I ordered: - Hors d'oeuvre Plate (Appetizers Mix): 20/10 I would come back just for this alone - Lamb Chops: was a bit pricey for 4 lamb chops but it was tender - Bingol Mix Kebab: massive portions and had a little bit of everything - Turkish Yogurt: took awhile to get used to the taste...would pass on this next time

Seats are comfortable. There are tables for 2-6 and tables that can accommodate large groups between 8-12 people. Pricing: For the portion size, pricing is great. Would definitely dine here again!

Food is amazing, but service is non existent…read more Food 5/5 Service 1/5 Ambiance 4/5 Came with a reso for five adults and got seated promptly. The restaurant got busier throughout the night. 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.

The restaurant's modern decor makes it feel elevated, but it's not stuffy or posh inside at all. I've never had Turkish food before, so I can't comment on the authenticity or taste, but I really enjoyed our meal! The pide was like a naan, and it tasted so good with that generous cheese topping and the complimentary yoghurt-based dip. The beef doner was also tasty, and I was not expecting that gigantic pile of meat! Stuffing that beef between the flatbread with some of that yogurt dip, add some pickled red onions, cucumber, & tomato = perfection. Looking forward to my next visit!
