Simple, tasty, & small cozy restaurant that serves authentic Turkish dishes. We ordered: beef Gözleme, Sadj Lamb, Avesta salad & the best of the best, Manti. All super fresh & served very quickly. We ended the night with an authentic Turkish tea. I would definitely come back to try other dishes.

Première visite.Je suis complètement séduit. J'ai mangé le Mati, un genre de ravioli au beauf traditionnel avec sauce yogourt. Pain fait à l'ordre & thé turque. J'ajoute cette adresse dans ma loop. Merci Khadija 11/10 pour le service impeccable & amical.🫶

If you're familiar with Turkish cuisine & have a strong craving for it, it's best to avoid this place because they serve a modified version of Turkish food. I ordered an iskender which is my favorite & I barely recognized the dish when it was served. The meat was thick & firm, there's salad next to it which has no business being there, no grilled tomato & chili, & no trace of butter. Dare I say that it's the worst iskender I had so far. It's much more disappointing because the waiter told us that their chef is Turkish. Aside from that, this place is quite overpriced & you're definitely not getting your money's worth. Great location, ambiance, & okay servers but the food missed the mark big time. Take some time to see the reviews from Turkish people who have been here.

A little loud at times especially when calling to place an order. However- we've been going for years (since they opened) & have always received outstanding food & service. For my family this is our comfort food.
