I regularly order their large tabbouleh, kibbeh & grape leaves with meat. They have the BEST tabbouleh & kibbeh. Hands down my favorite Mediterranean restaurant. High quality food.
The food is Halal. Thats why I came here. But the approach of the clerk at the cash register was so rude and absolutely not a warm welcome. He was like a 'where the hell this turkish guy come from amk'?? Yeah I am Turkish but writing English because it looks this store has a problem with turks? I really still could not figure it out that moment. I had no discount just because I am Turkish. I paid what it is in the menu.... And I am telling this weird story to the friends whenever the topic of eating out comes up...
So. Be nice to all customers. There is a great turkish proverb about this "müşteri velinimettir.."

Food here is pretty decent, but the service is absolutely horrible. The waiter/owner was extremely unfriendly. It was 4 of us, we ordered the Labneh and he only gave us 1 pita to split between 4 people. When we asked for more he again gave us 1 pita to split between 4 people. Eventually we asked for some Turkish bread as we had so much labneh left over, which he charged us 5$ each for. This is the ONLY Turkish restaurant that serves Labneh without any type of bread to eat it with. I didn't see the owner crack 1 smile during our whole visit. He is Flamboyant and unfriendly. Won't be back.

Our friends from Panama recommended this place...they love ethnic/Mediterranean food. It was absolutely fantastic. We ordered the Arugula Salad, chicken kabobs and a lamb dinner. Everything was so delicious!!! Excellent Authentic Mediterranean cuisine!!!

You have to try the baked hummus. It was great. We tried the lamb shank which was also great and the eggplant which was on. Good service. Will be back.

Alaturka Mediterranean Grill and Bakery is an outstanding restaurant that left a lasting impression on me. The portions were incredibly generous, ensuring that each person at the table had more than enough to eat. The kebab, in particular, was exceptionally flavorful, perfectly cooked, and seasoned just right, making it a highlight of the meal.
The staff were warm and welcoming, making the dining experience even more enjoyable with their friendly and attentive service. They were always quick to help with any requests and ensured that we felt comfortable throughout our visit.
What truly stood out, however, was the generosity of the owners. To our pleasant surprise, they offered each of us a complimentary dessert. This thoughtful gesture really showcased the restaurant’s hospitality. The bakery itself is also top-notch, and I have to say that their baklava was absolutely sublime—one of the best I’ve ever had.
Overall, Alaturka Mediterranean Grill and Bakery combines excellent food, generous portions, and an incredibly kind atmosphere. It’s a place I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic Mediterranean dining experience.

I had a few hours to kill while waiting for family to get surgery done at SmartCare, and I found this place for a quick lunch. I got the lunch special and the portion and taste is exactly I was looking for . Staff is polite and it’s a great place to chill during lunch break.

We chose this restaurant for our Anniversary Dinner based on the wonderful reviews. We wanted to try something different. This is a family owned and run business. We were absolutely amazed with the food, atmosphere and service!!! We ordered the baked hummus and sausage with homemade lavash for our appetizer. It was truly exceptional! For our entree's we ordered the Lamb Kabob and also the Beef and Lamb Shawarma. We shared our meals so we could taste it all! The flavors were so absolutely amazing and fresh!! We loved it all!!! For dessert we had the Sutlac and the Kunefe. Oh my goodness!!! The flavors were unreal!!... Our server was so incredibly accommodating and personable. When we finished our meal, we looked at the bakery and were amazed at the variety!! We don't eat out a lot, but we will look forward to going again!!!
Parking: Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking.

Good service. Great lamb chops.
We’ve been ordering from here in Uber Eats for a couple years and found it to be the BEST Mediterranean food in the area. Today, we finally visited in person and WOW!!! EVEN BETTER. Don’t think it was possible to get better. :) Favorite spot and fantastic and very quick service.
