Wonderful Turkish and Meditarranean fare. Prices are very reasonable and the staff super friendly. The pide and other breads are made from scratch and freshly baked. Everything was fresh and delicious. Will for sure come here again when in Chicago.

It was a cosy restaurant with good food.

There was complimentary bread which I enjoyed a-lot as it was warm and tasty. Got fried calamari for the appetizers which can be improved.

The chicken sandwich tasted good. Also got the chicken kebad with rice. The protein was seasoned nicely and loved the rice. The portion sizes were big.

There is room for improvement with the crème brûlée.

Service was good.

Ordered the Manti for an entree and it was so good. Have never had anything like this before and really enjoyed. My girl ordered Islam Sarmasi and enjoyed as well and the portion size was enough for her to bring half home. We also got the Kazandibi for dessert and it was straight fire, so good.

Late lunch- zucchini ’pancakes’ are a large portion- like a crab cake.
Wonderful bread, everything was very good- my eyes were much bigger than my stomach!
Very quiet on a weekday late lunch- maybe to be expected- did not energize if that’s what you’re looking for.
Servers are quietly polite- would be better served guiding guests through the menu- especially since many people may not be experienced in Turkish Cuisine.
We’re moving to the area and we’ll definitely be back!

The Turkish food here is absolutely wonderful. My Turkish son-in-law says it is the best in Chicago. Our party of six all had praises for our different entrees. The service seemed slow by American standards but that is the Turkish way. Enjoy the entire dining experience with ease. Definitely a place to relish and savor the experience.

Years ago was great market now is super expensive and because no too many people purchasing a lot of products are close to expiration date or maybe expire purchased small tolumbas taste as cube of sugar hard as stone . No clear praises on the product. On the shelf with one price is stocked other product with complete different price. For most of prices you must ask no sticker, no shelf sticker, or different shelf sticker

The food was unusually bad. The meat was fatty and the chicken raw to the point that we had to return the food
