Very tasty food & so filling that it may be difficult to eat it all in one sitting, so definitely worthwhile to take the rest to-go & enjoy later. Ask for Turkish coffee, the waitresses were really kind & helpful. Nice baklavas too.

Absolutely wonderful restaurant. The food is DELICIOUS. Extremely fresh & bursting with flavour. Highly recommend the lamb, eggplant mezze, & red pepper mezze! Service was excellent- our waitress was very kind & attentive & the food came VERY quickly! Great spot to have dinner before or after a movie as the forum is right down the street.

An hour ago we had two iskender delivered, each for C$29. The portions were disappointingly small though - barely half of what you get in the restaurant.
