I have been here now 3 times, and the food and service has been excellent each time. Being a BYOB place means you can enjoy your own bottle of wine or other drinks without a cooking fee, allowing you to enjoy a full dining experience for a much more reasonable price! Its not the quietest inside, but only because the style of dining brings whole families and moderate size groups. Bring as many as you can, share the large plates, and try as much as you can! read more

The food was actually quite good. I had placed a to-go order that was pretty large and sat in my car waiting outside. There was a mistake with my order not being put in and so I ended up waiting a long time. I went back in to check and they were extremely apologetic and such. The food was delish so I would go back. Inside its pretty basic casual. It's no fancy place. read more

Such a delicious and soul-filling experience at Turkish Mediterranean Cuisine in Largo, FL! We gathered for a fun culinary adventure with some amazing foodie friends, and this spot absolutely delivered. From the moment we dipped that fresh, fluffy house-baked bread into their stunning mezze platter, we knew we were in for something special. Highlights? Oh yes: * Saganaki -- flaming Greek cheese that stole the show (and got a few "Opa!" cheers). * Shrimp scampi -- bubbling hot in a clay dish, garlicky, herby, and addictively buttery. * Grilled octopus -- tender, charred just right, and plated like a work of art. * Lahmacun -- thin, crispy Turkish flatbread topped with seasoned meat and herbs, served with a bright, crunchy salad. * And that mezze platter... dreamy. Creamy baba ghanoush, refreshing cacık, spicy walnut dip, tabbouleh, and more. Everything was fresh, full of flavor, and meant to be shared. The atmosphere was casual, cozy and welcoming -- perfect for a group meal filled with laughs and connection. Big thanks to everyone who came out and shared their love and light. This one's definitely going on my foodie favorites list! read more

Came for a birthday party with a large group and had so much fun! It's a stand alone restaurant and byob! They ordered a couple of the house mixed grills for everyone and omg it was sooo good! Great variety and spices in the meat, crusty bread and the rice was my favorite. Comes with an extremely spicy sauce as well as tzatziki. Everyone loved the roasted tomato dipping sauce for the bread and everything tasted very fresh. Highly recommend if you're looking for something local and unique. read more

Never ate there, but I don't trust their towing policy. We parked in the handicapped spot because I'm in a wheelchair and they had no other cars parked in front of the restaurant because it was late; a waitress came running out yelling at us to leave or she would have us towed. Never mind that's illegal to tow from a handicapped spot when there is a handicapped placard or license plate displayed, but did she think this was good for business? We made up our minds right then we would not spend a penny there. read more

This restaurant is delicious! The menu is full of Turkish favorites, Mediterranean classics and even some Italian fare (which we did not sample). The bread and dipping sauce they bring to the table is next level. Homemade and fresh from the oven. Incredible! Be sure to order hummus to also enjoy with the bread. The chicken kebabs and the salmon special get rave reviews from me! The vibes are fairly low.. Pleasant. But low. This place is more about the food than the ambiance. Better than the reverse, right? read more

Excellent service. Large portions. Delicious food. Platter of 5 cold appetizers was huge and filling. Excellent bread served with it was SO yummy because it was covered with sesame seeds. We chose the following 5 appetizers and enjoyed all of them: Dolma, beans, babaganoush, labneh and spicy vegan bulgur balls. Next time, I'd like to try the less spicy bulgur balls. read more

Looking for something totally different for family dinner (son's B'day 01/05/26). There were 7 of us so decided on sharing our meal from appetizers to dessert. 1st off they started us off with this amazing bread ( naan?) and awesome dipping sauce, from there had a type of tortellini BUT was made from a phyllo type dough very light filled with a lamb mixture swimming in a feta / herb sauce again soo good. Along with that we shared a fried/ baked cheese dish again amazing. For our main course we had the House Special Mixed Grill, was fresh, tasty and plentiful. It consists of beef Shish, chicken shish, lamb plus another type of chicken bottom was rice . All of this was covered with a homemade light dough. Needless to say it was very impressive looking and delicious. They advertise BYOB ( which we did bring our wine) but now they do have a wine/ bee4 license. The staff was exceptional, service spot on. Oh and the price is right ($$$) very reasonable. It is locally owned and operated ... a BIG PLUS for me. Kudos to the chef, staff and local owners. Keep up the good job/ vibes.. read more

Updating my review. Went back as we had such a great time last time and was again for there with a large party. We requested the side room and for whatever excuse we were not given it. They gave us a long table against the wall. To me this was crazy as of course our table was going to be loud as it was a birthday party and Father's Day. The server came over and told us about noise complaints from other tables which could have been handled if they put us in the side room like before. Crazy! Food is still delicious and will be back... just with a smaller table size. That or take it to go! read more

The moment we sat down, the fresh bread set the tone -- warm, soft, and absolutely delicious. The hummus was spot‑on: smooth, perfectly seasoned, and clearly made with care. I ordered the mixed grill, which came with beef shish, chicken shish, chicken adana, and kofte. Every single item was flavorful, tender, and seasoned beautifully. You can tell the kitchen knows exactly what they're doing with their marinades and grilling. My wife had the Anatolian Village dish (GUVEC), a braised beef and sautéed eggplant casserole served with rice. It was rich, comforting, and full of deep, authentic flavor -- easily one of the standout dishes of our night. Great service, generous portions, and truly authentic Turkish flavors. We'll definitely be back. read more

Ordered takeout on the way home and both the service and food was outstanding. When back in Florida again we'll absolutely be back!

What a find! It's homey, it's busy and bustling, it's yummy and welcoming. My friends and I spent my last evening in Tampa dining in. Helped by a young and enthusiastic server, we sampled incredibly tender grilled octopus, shockingly moist falafel (it's usually so dry!), and sweet and crunchy baklava. My chicken adana was tasty (maybe a bit oily) and the moist rice pilaf a welcome counterpoint. It was really fun to be inside this crowded restaurant on a Saturday night. We saw a dish get lit on fire, we felt seen by the staff, and the authenticity of the spices and textures was all there. read more

A bit skeptical on what to expect but so glad we went in and ordered!!! We were greeted right away. The place was welcoming and plenty of seating for bigger parties. Started with the cold appetizers which is a whole bunch of dips and spread you can out on your bread. Then we opted for the mixed grill which is lamb, beef and chicken kebabs. This whole meal is good for 5-6 people. This came with individual house salad. For dessert we shared a tiramisu. There were 5 of us in our party and we were all stuffed and going home with plenty of left overs. The food was delicious and a great experience. Highly recommend!!! read more

What a pleasant surprise! This cozy restaurant was clean, staff were welcoming, kind and hospitable. The food was absolutely delicious! The server brought us a crispy freshly baked bread and unique sun-dried tomatoes, herbs and olive oil dip. The home made bread was superb. I had the Chicken Guvech- it was full of flavor, juicy, and the chicken was seasoned to perfection! My husband had the grouper fish and chips with a generous piece of breaded fish that was crispy, flaky and light in flavor. The accompanying coleslaw was just perfect! My husband is very picky about coleslaw and he loved it! Gokhan was our server. He was phenomenal! Very kind, friendly, patient and accommodating. We found our "go-to" Mediterranean restaurant and will be definitely going back! read more

Food was Great. Service was great. Jessica is the Best! First time having Tirkish food in Florida.

Ok lots of positive reviews plus a reco from a server from another restaurant and I have to say the best lamb kabob I've had in my life! I think they call it Lamb Adana. We came during off hours so plenty of parking. Them menu is huge so tons of stuff to try. Turkish coffee was like an amazing expresso. Pretty basic comfortable setting and we also had the dips platter and rice pudding which were both amazing! Honestly don't think you can go wrong here almost all locals and BYOB! read more

Second visit and again everything was outstanding. Had dinner with hubby and son about 2 months ago, should have reviewed then but was a late night stop and never took photos. We had 3 different dishes, all came out hot, plentiful and delicious. This week went to lunch with our ladies group. I ordered the lamb kabob lunch. Tender tasty large chunks of lamb, buttery rice and a side salad. I'm gluten free, so didn't try the great looking bread, but did taste the sun-dried tomato dip and ended up adding it to my salad it was so good. Other ladies ordered salads, chicken kabobs, buttery rice/lemon pasta and everyone was happy and said they'd be back. The service was quick and friendly, even gave everyone complementary Turkish tea. read more

My family and I visited and we will absolutely be coming back. There is such a diverse menu and every item is prepared to perfection. I think my favorite thing when I go out for dinner is free bread and this bread is no ordinary, it was some of the most delicious bread I've ever had. Each dish had subtle spices and were cooked thoroughly, the portions sizes are huge so maybe share a dish or two with your party. The staff is super attentive and the inside of the restaurant is super classy, perfect place for a special occasion. read more

First thing; there is no alcohol. You can BYOB and no cork fee. The food was amazing and has lots of choice. The octopus was stellar, a bit over cooker per my preference but tender, so I'm not gonna knock it cause each cuisine is different. My wife ordered sardines and I ordered lamb shank. The sardines was very fun to eat, I ate pretty much the whole thing fish (bones and head), I love that it's not overly salty. The lamb shank was amazing and under $28!! If you have a big party they will stick you in a room, that room tends to get hot. Also, parking is limited and you can't park at the plaza next door or you will be towed (lots of warnings). I will definitely be back to try more of the food. read more

Amazing food, great service, fresh and tasty. The staff was extremely nice. So many amazing options.

I was stationed in Turkey for 3 years and miss it. I dined here for my birthday today. I ordered the traditional Lamb Adana Kebab with hand chopped lamb, red bell pepper, spicy Turkish pepper flakes grilled on flat skewers. It came with rice and salad. Hot chai was delightful. The Ekmek bread with dipping sauce was perfect! Folks, this is the real deal. It's as authentic as I remember eating fresh in restaurants in Adana, Turkey. I'll be making this a frequent treat. read more

Food was great! My wife and I enjoyed this place. Simple but good! Service was great as well.

Hands-down, the best Middle Eastern restaurant I've been to in Pinellas County! Being Middle Eastern descent, I know good food and what it's supposed to taste like if it's authentic, and this place is authentic! The sauces and the seasoning that they use are just unbelievable! Bread was a little dry, but aside from that everything was delicious. Make sure you leave room for the baklava. Four pieces for seven dollars, can't be beat. It's gooey and delicious! Sean is also a great waiter! read more

Really love this place, staff is always nice and the food is always delicious. If you have never had baked hummus I highly recommend it, we order with a side of fresh veggies but also enjoy it with their amazing fresh Turkish bread. Serving size is large and we always bring some home. They have a house special with pistachios in it that every guest I have taken there enjoys. The Arugula salad is light and delicious. No capping fee and you can bring your own wine! read more

Last night, we decided to try out Turkish Mediterranean Cuisine for dinner. It is located off W Bay Dr in Largo. It was our first time there, but definitely won't be out last. We walked in and we were greeted immediately and seated. Our service throughout our visit was great. We looked over the menu and decided to start with the cold app sampler. We went with hummus, baba, and a spicy feta dip. They bring pita bread to start and a roasted tomato dipping sauce that was super flavorful. For our mains we decided to try the mixed grill platter and a doner kebab pide which is like a pizza. I decided to have them top the pide with eggs which is said to be fairly traditional. Our cold apps came out quickly and they looked great. The hummus was super smooth and rich. The baba had good smokey flavor and was a bit mayo heavy which I enjoyed. The spicy feta dip was unique and we both enjoyed finishing that off. Our mains came out in good time and they both looked incredible. The mixed grill came with 5 different types of kebabs, salad, rice, and a few grilled peppers. It was more than enough for 2-3 people. There were 2 types of chicken, beef, and lamb. All meats were grilled nicely and seasoned well. We enjoyed sampling through the platter. The doner kebab pide with egg was my absolute favorite. It was on the rich side, which I enjoyed, with the addition of the egg on it. We were both absolutely stuffed from our selections and we both really liked our meal. Overall, we had a great first visit. The food was outstanding and the service was great too. We will definitely be back soon to sample some of the other menu items. read more
