Quick info
About Agacan Turkish Restaurant
Agacan Turkish Restaurant is a Turkish restaurant on Perth Road in Dundee, serving a traditional kebab and meze menu in a simple, brightly coloured setting. Much of its character comes from a straightforward focus on grilled meats and shared small plates rather than an extended menu. The Mixed Kebab Plate anchors the grill side, while the Mixed Meze Selection brings a range of cold and hot starters to the table, and Lahmacun appears as a thin, flatbread-style option. Dining works on a walk-in basis, with the open layout making it easy to order at your own pace. The bright interior keeps the mood casual, and the counter service suits both quick lunches and relaxed evening meals.

Customer Review Summary
Diners consistently praise the authentic Turkish food, with the Turkish Doner and Rice singled out for its tender meat and flavour-packed browned onion fried rice. Reviewers describe the dishes as wonderfully presented and very tasty, with starters like Humas, Cacik, and Feta Cheese Salad frequently shared. The small, brightly decorated interior, full of colourful paintings and artwork, draws repeated notice for its unique, cosy atmosphere. Portions are widely called huge, though a few note the prices lean toward the higher side, with one pointing out a small bottle of Efes at £4.50 felt expensive. Service is regularly described as kind and efficient, but one group arrived for a booked Friday night only to be turned away after the restaurant had mistakenly logged the reservation for Saturday.

“Dinner at Agacan was the best part about the visit to Dundee. Absolutely phenomenal food, kind and efficient waiting staff, clean place. A bit crowded and small place, but I didn't mind it as food was mind blowing. Interior was full with bright coloured paintings and decorations. Very interesting and unique.”
