We recently visited Turkish Aksaray, and it’s truly a place worth coming back to.
The menu is extensive, offering a wide variety of traditional Turkish dishes from appetizers to hearty main courses and desserts. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious, with rich yet beautifully balanced flavors. You can tell the food is prepared with care and respect for tradition.
What really stood out to me was the perfectly balanced taste of the lamb gyro and the rice pudding these were definitely my two favorites. The lamb gyro was flavorful, tender, and well-seasoned without being overwhelming. And the rice pudding was smooth, delicately sweet, and comforting,the perfect way to finish the meal.
The food comes out quickly, yet the quality remains excellent: a rare and appreciated combination.
Service is outstanding: very polite, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without being intrusive.
There are about 60 seats inside, making it comfortable for both small groups and family gatherings. They also prepare takeout with the same quality and care as dine-in orders, and the portions are generous.
Overall, it’s a wonderful spot with great food, warm service, and an inviting atmosphere.
Highly recommended.

I order from this place at-least 4-5 times a week through uber-eats. All my family members and friends order from here also and we occasionally dine in. We love their food, but the service in this place has gone down significantly. They are so rude in denying a simple add-on of lambo gyro on a mix Adana kebab platter. I informed them that they can obviously charge extra for the add on. I am in the hospitality business myself and it’s a simple request from someone who literally spends hundreds of dollars a month in this establishment.I won’t be supporting this business again not will my family members or friends. Completely rude to loyal customers!

One of the better Turkish restaurants in Kings Hwy. I prefer Aksaray when in Kings hwy because their meat is always fresh when I had it and their prices are fair.

I orderd lamb gyro on turkish bread one lamb head soup and one tripe soup i drive there at this cold weather. And its happening second time last time they gave me two lentil soup instead two tripe soup. Thanks god this time at least they gave me one tripe and one lentil soup. I dont make complain about the food i complain about nasty girls on the counter . She was raising her voice to me i stead of being polite . Her excuse was the other cashier didnt understand whats lamb head soup. Its not my problem if someone doesnt know what they serving. The owner has to give more attention to the cashiers how they are nasty to the customers

Aksaray is a fantastic spot for anyone who enjoys authentic, flavorful food prepared with care. The dishes are always fresh, well-seasoned, and full of rich, traditional taste. The meat is tender and juicy, the portions are generous, and the selection of sides and sauces perfectly complements every meal. Whether you go for kebab, grilled dishes, or something lighter, the quality is consistently high.
The staff is friendly, welcoming, and efficient, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Even during busy hours, orders come out quickly and everything is served with attention to detail. The restaurant is clean, comfortable, and has a warm atmosphere that makes eating there inviting and pleasant.
Aksaray is a great choice for a satisfying meal at a fair price. If you’re looking for delicious, well-prepared food with excellent service, this place definitely delivers. Highly recommended!
