We got the Tavuk kebab with the rice & beyti kebab. The beyti kebab was very good. A solid 4.5/5. The tavuk kebab were decent too, but could have been better, 3.5/5. The thing that let us down was the service & the ambiance. Needs massive improvement on the front. The kunafa at the end was a 3/5 too. Not too bad not too good. One more thing that needs to be added is potatoes (fries) to the menu.

Très bel endroit, chaleureux, superbes nappes, objets décoratifs rappelant la Turquie. Service courtois. Mezzes: très bonnes feuilles de vignes avec yogourt savoureux, humus ok, mouhamara ordinaire. Kebab-viandes bien marinés, gouteux & pain délicieux toutefois, accompagnements (salade de chou rouge au persil, riz & légumes) fades & sans aucun arôme, décevant pour ce type de cuisine si parfumée habituellement. Le pire étant le riz vraiment raté. Lahmacun ok sans plus, encore ici, manque de goût. Un endroit tout de même unique à Montreal qui gagnerait à s'élever mais qui vaut le détour pour son caractère unique. Une dame façonne des mantis (pâtes farcies) à la main à l'avant du restaurant. On reviendra pour les sandwichs qui semblent très populaires.

First time & it was wonderful. I had the spinach & feta grilled sandwich made in front of establishment with salad. Portions were huge & brought half of meal home. The Turkish tea provided for free was delicious. Loved the whole experience & employees are lovely. Noted that other clients were also asking for take out containers since portions are substantial. Can't wait to return. Thank you,

They have delicious Turkish food in downtown. Specially their Lambs. Only negative impression is that sometimes their Revani is 3-4 days old & dry. I would recommend not to sell it when it is old. It damages your reputation
