Mixed meat
Siamen M.

Nice hug place with plenty of seats. We came here twice. The price is on the high side but given the amount of protein included, I see this why. The protein cooked right. I like how they give you some mix veggies and hummus to open your stomach. Both times we came received great services. They have also got a lot of desserts and homemade spreads, but I prefer a cup of Turkish coffee instead.

Friendly service and nice environment for a weekend brunch. I like the big selection on their menu . My favorite was the beet hummus. The chicken skewer was overcooked and dried out.

Nice size restaurant and very clean, friendly staff and delicious food. I ordered an omelette and a circular bread (I forget the exact names from the menu) But definitely recommend this place, the food is fresh and tasty.

Took an ENTIRE hour to get the food to our table. One full hour. The waitress never smiled even once, and they seemed very careless about their speed. Everyone was waiting for so long.

Turkish coffee

Food and drinks were delicious. The restaurant was having the good service. I ordered coffee and kebab. Was nice to try it.

There has been a big boom of Turkish spots in Kent just within the last year so today, my friend and I tried out Sofra for lunch. A nice big clean place! I was excited to check out their menu. The most flavorful and best dish we got were the samsas, flaky pastry with beef and onions, 5 pieces to an order. We tried 2 of their pides, both just ok. Also got the turkish dumplings but by then we were passed full. Friendly and kind service, Ill definitely return to try more menu items. Only one star less because our server was unsure if non dairy options were available for their coffee drinks/espresso so I did not order. But Sofra, if you read this, please have non dairy milk options like oat or soy available. Its seattle after all. We need our coffee! Thank you for a nice time

Everything was amazing! The food tasted amazing and Customer Service was really great! Will definitely be coming back.

Cafe Sabah has easily become one of my favorite spots since moving to Washington. The flavors here…read morereally stand out! Everything has that deep, smoky, grilled taste that makes each bite so satisfying. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food. I tried a variety of dishes, and nothing missed, but the mixed grill plate was the highlight for me. It's the perfect option if you want to sample different meats, and every piece was flavorful, juicy, and cooked perfectly.The space itself is beautiful--very open, clean, and inviting. The music adds to the experience, giving it a great atmosphere without being overwhelming. There's also plenty of parking, which makes visiting super easy

Happened to be in the area, so decided to stop by for an early dinner. There's a pretty big parking…read morelot around the building. The restaurant itself is pretty large too, with 3 different seating areas. When we arrived, there were a few parties already there in the middle and left sections. For some reason, they sat us in the right section all my ourselves. Other parties that came in after us were all sat in the middle section, so we were the only party in that area the entire time. We did get service, but it was extremely minimal. They didnt check on us at all, and we sat around for quite awhile waiting for someone to come by to get us our bill/clear the table. It definitely felt like we were being segregated against, as we were the only East Asian party there. :c We did really enjoy the food. Flavors were on point. But unfortunately, the service and maybe segregation overshadowed our entire dining experience here.

Went there with a group of 6 and had a huge order -- whole roast chicken, multiple kababs, qubooli…read morepulaav, hummus, desserts. Taste: some of the best chicken I have had in a while. Tender, juicy, succulent, with just a right seasoning and spice. The ground meat kababs were average. Lamb kabab just decent. The whole grilled chicken was really good -- again, tender, juicy and succulent. These guys definitely know their chicken. The pistachio baklavas were great. But the Kunafa quality has gone down. Couple of months back, Kunafa was great. This time, the cheese quantity had dwindled and replaced by some filler (cornflour-y, custardy- stuff), and an overuse of orange color and artificial essence. The butter/ghee was also almost missing. [Someday I would love to unravel the mystery of why restaurants use artificial color -- be it tikkas, chicken 65, desserts. No one likes it -- name one customer who has ever said, that a dish needs color for me to buy/eat it. The customers don't want it. The restaurant has to spend more money to purchase the color. It's extra effort to add it. It's a lose-lose-lose situation. But let's leave it for now] Portions aren't humungous but quite fair for the price. The whole roasted chicken is probably the best chicken deal in the US right now -- 20 bucks will get you a full, good-quality bird, done to perfection, along with fragrant rice. Service is very good. Our server Mustafa was amazing -- gave us great recommendations, was prompt, and overall made us feel welcome. Ambience is OK. Extremely spacious (one of the biggest per-capita restaurant space that you will ever see), and clean. The furniture and decor is a bit dated, but you might not notice it. A huge pointer for the management: please get clean the bathrooms. Bathrooms are in a very sad need of repair and upkeep, and in this day, age and location, a bathroom that smells of pee can truly tarnish all the good efforts and investments you guys are making. It's an easy fix -- $30/day and you can have someone come in deep clean it every day. Overall, highly recommended for the food!

The quality and portion sizes have noticeably declined. It seems there may be new management or a…read moredifferent cook, as the dishes are no longer prepared the way they used to be. I always ordered the chicken tikka kebab, but now the plate comes with just a few small pieces of chicken and an overwhelming amount of rice. Previously, the chicken portions were generous and well-balanced. They also recently changed the bread, which is disappointing since it used to be one of my favorite parts of the meal. Unfortunately, the new bread doesn't compare to the original, and it really takes away from the overall experience. I used to look forward ordering from here all the time - but not anymore. The baklava is still good.
