Ephesus is thee best Turkish restaurant in DFW hands down!! Even my good friends who own Istanbul Grill in Orange County CA will tell you the same! I just spent my birthday here and as usual the food, service, and atmosphere are always outstanding! My buddy Ozzy wasn't there tonight to host us, but we were in great hands with G and the guys!
