Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the freshness and taste of the food, with the large platter and the mixed shish with bulgur singled out as standouts, alongside warm lentil soup with fresh bread and the olives served as a starter. The staff draw consistent compliments for being friendly and quick, and several mention the family-friendly atmosphere and the air-conditioned dining room. A few diners raise trade-offs: one warns that the rice is soaked in lemon rather than a typical Turkish style, and a couple describe the service as poor despite enjoying the food. No other recurring complaints appear across the reviews. Several families say they will be back.

“Absolutely stunning, took the family , had the large platter, it was great. Had many a meal like it but not to this quality , little touches made the meal! Staff were friendly and helpful.

“Oh my goodness, lovely waitress. Great conversation, about Africa and places to visit. Made us feel right at home! The food was hot, fresh and tasty, would have loved a dessert but there was no more room in my tummy after that appetizer and then the mains. Those olives 🫒 I hope you will sell them in jars someday soon. Absolutely tasty. Enjoyed the virgin colada too... There was absolutely no need for dessert 😂”
