100000% one of the best restaurants in Orlando. Def best food in Winter Park. Food is 10/10 we tried everything.Food: Ordered Numerous apps, entrees, dessert, & tea. This is a hidden gem . The food is delicious & fresh. After all the great food, we ordered dessert with tea and it was the best kanafa I have ever had. If you are a fan of pistachio, you have to try this.Ambiance: lovely location in the heart of park Ave. from the outside you would never know how amazing this spot is. It's smaller in size, but it makes it feel very homey and authentic. Great portion & price as well.Service: If you're deciding between here and Bosphorus - come here. I've been to Bosphorus hundreds of times, and I only came here once and it has won me over. Since I came, I recommend all my local friends & family to visit this restaurant. If I could rate it more than 5 stars I would. One of my new favorite Mediterranean restaurant. I will definitely return again.

Great food and service. Finally first Turkish place in Orlando with fresh cocked food and great taste. As good as in Turkey…, maybe not…. ( american lamb meat is not the same as turkey quality) but…, still the best Turkish Mediterranean in central Florida. Family owned, absolutely lovely Turkish people who make you feel like home.Bread and dipping …. Excellent. Lamb donner better… lamb shank … The BESST. From all six people and 11 different foods we ordered every single item was great or exceptional. Can’t wait to go back .Arnaut- Tirana

The food is top quality, the roasted lamp pide was incredible and definitely something out of the ordinary. The outside seating is probably the best option.

Although the restaurant charges a premium, the portions of chicken shish kebab and shepherd's salad are disappointingly small. However, the quality of the food is undeniably good. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the salad is fresh and vibrant. Despite the size, the flavors make it worth the cost for those craving delicious Mediterranean cuisine.

Go somewhere elseThe staff are rude and don't seem happy you intrude on their free time.The cook(s) are not Mediterranean at all. The food has no flavor, and isn't cooked well at all.Overpriced and bad experience.

We had such a great experience. Food was freshly prepared, taste was excellent, and pricing was reasonable. The place is small so if you are a big party call and plan accordingly.

There are a lot of restaurants around this area that serve large groups of people. This is a cute, quiet, little restaurant with outdoor seating. I would describe the food as fresh and healthy.I had nicely flavored kofte (lamb), my husband had chicken flavored with a mild tartness ( really loved). We had the hummus as an appetizer and it was light and lemony.We were given complimentary baklava, light and very good.The server was a delight to speak with.We would definitely return .

The food wasn’t good. The lamb lahmacun was overpowered by tomato sauce taste and some grainy textured lamb minced meat with no flavour to anything except like you dip your pita in tomato marinara. Customer service was great. They did agree to swap the lahmacun with regular chicken kebob after it was almost impossible to get it down the throat. The lamb Dona Kebobs were dry and mild with some light touch of a sauce that wasn’t any flavourful. I wouldn’t recommend this as anything close to a Turkish restaurant. Try the other restaurant Bhospherpus, down the road. Extremely expensive and below average quality of food at this one.

The place is nice , very small and under staff . Our table waited about 20 minutes to get the drinks . The only thing that made us not walk out to the other Turkish was the customer service . The waitress was nice and sincere when she told us I’m by myself , she did her best .
