One of my favorite restaurants in Pittsburgh! It’s not fancy inside, but the food is delicious. The lamb shish kebab entree is one of my top favorite meals. Their mint yogurt sauce is divine. We recently left Pittsburgh but I would make a point to come back to Turkish kebab house the next time I’m in town! Do yourself a favor and get the baklava too!

I went to this store 2 days ago, we were going to eat with my 3 friends, there was 1 hour before closing time and we were not allowed to eat there, so we said let's take it in a package and eat at home and the food was really disgraceful, it was really a very bad and and funny thing.

We shared 2 classic mezze and then the mixed platter. It was plenty for 3 and really delicious. Will for sure come back.

Absolutely legit Turkish restaurant, from a guy who lived in Ankara and Bursa. The server actually speaks Turkish, which I consider a bonus. The kebabs were solid, nothing that knocked my socks off or anything, but no issues. Don't take my four stars as an insult. I simply don't rate 5 unless a restaurant really blows my mind or is the quintessential representative of its genre. The tea was also great. The only downside was I asked for vegetables with my hummus and they gave me only a small amount of really sad looking carrot sticks that were kinda rubbery and old. Otherwise, highly recommend.

Best Turkish restaurant in town! Some kf the most authentic and fresh Turkish food, period. I live on the West Coast now and every time I come home to visit, my friends and I go here for our favorite meals and to see old friends behind the counter. A really wonderful place. ❤️

After ordering from this restaurant twice, I had a chance to visit them with a friend recently. We had mixed appetizer and mixed grill plate. Appetizers were all fresh and tasty. As for the kebabs; Adana was my favorite. Gyro is above average. Lamb shish was very good. Chicken Shish was very very soft and juicy; I'm not really a chicken guy but I was still impressed with these. They also have a very special item, extremely hard to find; Mersin Style Tantuni. It was awesome. All the food was good, very good. The service was even better. They were fine with our out-of-the-norm requests like extra lavash, onions with sumac and such requests. And the owner was the best. We had a chance to meet with him and had a small talk. He was very friendly.

I highly recommend this restaurant. Give them a try and you will not regret.

This place is not safe for people who follow a gluten free diet. I repeatedly asked staff when I was ordering if dishes were gluten free/free of wheat flour, and that I would get sick if they weren’t. They insisted they were, but when the dishes came out the rice was mixed with orzo.

I am very happy to have stopped this afternoon. Food was spectacular. Hummus was made in house. Pita charred just right. My dinner didn't lack flavor or was over done. Good people. Will return.

Family friendly and very welcoming environment. It's easy to miss on foot if you're not looking for it. A hidden gem for Mediterranean food. Definitely recommend the mixed appetizer plate if you've never had Mediterranean food and are adventurous. Never enjoyed stuffed grape leaves until I had theirs. The prices look a bit high but you get your money's worth in quantity.

Parking: Paid parking lot under the library right around the corner or paid street parking out front when you can find an open spot. Busy area, tends to have a lot of traffic.
