Turkish Restaurants near Minneapolis, MN

“Stopped for dinner before a show at the Orpheum. The bartender made the drinks to perfection and recommended some great food choices for us. Will definitely be back to try some more off the menu. Friendly service!“

“This is a new business in Northeast Minneapolis serving outstanding Middle Eastern pastries and ice cream along with cakes and fresh spicy potato snacks. The food I had was great, and I highly recommend this cafe.“

“Food always hits here. The Turkey tips are my favorite, juicy turkey bits and bbq sauce on a bed of crispy fries. I’ve also tried the Turkey dogs, tacos, lasagna, turkey burger, and Turkey legs. Everything is a slam dunk!!“

“The food was really tasty, but a bit different than listed. For example, my chicken bowl was supposed to come with pickled onions and it did not. The Turkish bread was a highlight. Definitely a takeout place because the door is broken. It does not latch and it was FREEZING on a December evening.“

“Moving reviews over from Yelp. This was originally posted on 10/23/16:

This little hole-in-the-wall place really caught me by surprise and I have Yelp to thank for finding them.

I dined there but they seem to do a healthy carry-out business as well. I arrived just before their lunch rush and scored a parking spot on the street right in front of the place. There was just one other table full when I arrived but the place was packed by the time I left.

I asked the guy taking orders at the counter and doubling as a waiter about their most popular dishes. He pointed out the Number 30 combo. It comes with beef & lamb doner, chicken kebab, two kofte kebabs, grilled green peppers, onions and tomatoes. They add a pita bread on the side and give you the option between a salad, fries or rice. I opted for the salad and it came with a few big chunks of feta cheese - score!

Everything on the plate was delicious but the biggest stand-out of the bunch was the gyros meat that was described as beef & lamb doner. It was carved right off the spit like you find in the places where they understand the stuff as opposed to merely feeling like they should have it on the menu. It was shaved into long, thin ribbons and appropriately crispy on one side while moist on the other. It represented EXACTLY what I'm hoping for when I order gyros anywhere outside of the little Greek neighborhood places in Chicago. Yum!

I debated star count for a while and was going to give them 4-stars. Why not the full 5 stars? Mainly because I have a hard time giving up the whole magilla when there really isn't a service component to a dining experience. That said, the food was every bit a 5-star experience and very reasonably priced as well...a combination that tips the scale.“

“Got the Meal for 3 for myself and my hubby so you could have leftovers:) Food was excellent, we will be back!“
