I went for lunch, and let the server know I had limited time. I get this is not a fast food place, but it still took too long for a lunch service.

The food was ok. The chilled cucumber soup was good. I got the “macaroni” and minced lamb. I was surprised to see it served as unseasoned noodles with mince and yogurt sauce just kind of poured on. It would have been better mixed and with a different noodle.

Overall, it’s fine. I probably won’t got if I have a tight lunch time. Might order something different.

The food is delicious. It is made on site. Service was excellent, attentive but not hovering. There were real roses decorating the space that were beautiful!

Incredibly charming venue and service, the home cooked meal hot the spot and the staff was super kid friendly. My 6 year old gave the lentil soup a 10/10 🥰

The chicken soup and eggplant were good. I ordered the salmon and rice pilaf; it was delicious and a normal portion.

The Turkish coffee is strong and bold; it comes in a small, Turkish-sized cup.

The service was amazing!

But honestly, it is a bit expensive for me. I expect more at that price.

As a Turkish man living abroad, l missed the test of real authentic Turkish food. I saw Ayse Cafe on the map, and changed my route to try. I am glad l did, l felt like l am in my mother’s kitchen. Everything was very good and the place was very clean and cute. From now on it is my most favorite place in Ohio. Highly recommended.

This is a fabulously delicious restaurant! I have a soy and soy oil allergy and my dining guest had a gluten allergy - there were many delicious, fresh options from which to choose for both of us! Kudos to Ayse's!

Pretty good Turkish food. Not your typical Turkish doner. More of the homemade food. Owner is pleasant and the service is fantastic.

While the food was good, the server and owner possibly (?) were nice, and the atmosphere was quiet, the potions were extremely small. I should have taken a photo, but my lamb stew lasted for about 3 bites with only specks of ground lamb. (And that was the dinner portion!) My husband's meal was also very small. He got only 1 small pepper as the main entree for dolma. We both left hungry, though we spent a lot of money for the lunch (I think $60 altogether). It started with the soup side that was already small, and then came the main course which was even smaller. I thought that at least for the price, we would have received more food. If this place was more generous with their portion sizes, I think they would have much more guests eating there, and I would be one to line up again. But I can't bear to return to this restaurant due to the reasons stated.
