Tori JirakOctober 28, 2015The grilled calamari is one of their best dishes I have ever had. I am a huge fan of calamari and this dish is so flavorful. It is prepared perfectly with avacados, Diced tomatoes and chili verde!
Time Out ChicagoJune 4, 2012We wolf down the manti (Turkish ravioli stuffed with bits of lamb in a creamy yogurt–and–chili oil sauce), whole slabs of juicy, salt-crusted bream and some of the best hummus around.
Lauren DrogosJanuary 28, 2014Such a delicious, authentic spot! Got a four course dinner on a Saturday night for $25- love the apple endive salad, calamari and homemade gnocchi!
Daisy ZookSeptember 14, 2021Food was great. We had chicken kebab, lemon chicken, Adana kebab. Had the Acuka and chorizo mozzarella pide- was delicious! Kadir was our server and he did an excellent job
SaraApril 12, 2013Why a Turkish place has Italian dishes is byond me! Try the TURKISH Lahmacun & Sogurme. These apps are as big as a meal & can easily feed 2-3 peeps. Bread- superb! Wait staff can get hostile.

Victoria FurseAugust 25, 2012Best Turkish food in chicago! All of my Turkish friends say the same! Be sure to try the famous lahmacun and desserts cuz they r the best!
Aasil AhmadMay 25, 2012This place is amazing. After gorging yourself on great turkish food I recommend getting a nice cup of turkish coffee and don't miss the brownie oozing with melted chocolate and vanilla ice cream.- This place has good Turkish food, but also really good steaks. It has a full bar and good wine list. This is a good date night place.
Food here was wonderful. Fresh and special. Definitely need to try the gnocchi with Ox tail and the seafood stew. The Torrontes (Argentina) wine was just the right pairing.
Best turkish restaurant in Chicago. Food, service, atmosphere, everything was great
Hamid Alan9aryFebruary 16, 2018Was here for the fish but was surprised with the menu options! Leave space for the Turkish coffee and Baklava #Yeswaa
Jack HaeflingFebruary 5, 2014Great food....Great service. I highly recommend this authentic and quaint little Turkish restaurant that is situated in a cozy neighborhood.
Chad HeikkinenFebruary 1, 2014Small intimate white linen table cloth kind of place. Great food. Wonderful service. 5 stars!
JesseFebruary 15, 2016The Beef Kabap and Talas Boregi were incredible! Highly recommend. The service was very accommodating and nice.
EceMarch 9, 2014Do not miss Sunday brunch buffet. Caution: They bring more food than you can eat! ~$16 per person.
Anne-Marie HodgeAugust 15, 2014Great for a date night, vegetarian entree options are a bit limited but I left more than satisfied regardless.
Ericka TorrenceJune 11, 2012Don't be afraid to ask for something not on the menu. Also, be patient. They have great service and everything is home made.
Christopher RossApril 15, 2016Lahmacun, Feta Salad for apps, Doner, Adana Kebap for entrees. All sent out together, so entrees sent back and were under a warmer. Just ok- Kailei CarrAugust 18, 2012Great food but service was really slow. The onion kabap was amazing and the homemade warm bread was delicious!
Erin FishMarch 13, 2012Surprise! The dip served with your bread is carrots, olive oil, yogurt and horseradish!!! Yummmmm!
Royal Flesh Tattoo and Body PiercingDecember 3, 2010Try the scallops and the Turkish wine . Mmmmmmmi good . Try this place you won't be disappointed.
kailey arlenNovember 21, 2015Pretty awful service ... But the food is good. Gnocchi w oxtail was great
Lolo DeFloJuly 23, 2013If you have three hours to spare and want to be treated badly, you should come here. Otherwise, I suggest you go just about anywhere else for better food and service.
