Nice turkish restaurant in Rice village, which explains why it's on the pricy side (not very pricey though). Has a nice patio/outdoor sitting that's suitable in cool weather. Grills taste good. Service is good as well

Went here last night with out of town guests, and had a tasty meal. The atmosphere is casual, it was pretty busy. Service was nice. Four of us ordered three entrees, and I would say it was pretty filling, and we still had leftovers. Look forward to going again.

Food was nice. Not amazing but ok. Good service, but there was no kazandibi, and the other desserts were too sweet. It's pretty casual so no need to dress TOO nicely lol good bread btw!

I have been here 3 times so far. Fresh, tasty and healthy food. Cozy place to dine and smoke sheesha. Its open really late on weekends. The bread they serve is warm and fresh and just melts in your mouth. Great menu to select from. I particularly like the Turkish ravioli and the lamb chops.

I have been here many times, maybe 15-20 times total. The pide (flat bread) is delicious and almost melts in your mouth. Iskender kebap and doner kebap are my favorites. Some of the other dishes are mediocre. I would not expect too much from the lahmacun or desserts -- order a meat entree and maybe an appetizer!

This restaurant has not been the same since it expanded. Too bad as several years ago, they served some of the best kabobs in Houston.

Good place. Nice Staff. Been there many times. Food is good. They don't give enough portion to satisfy your hunger though. The best part is the late night menus till 2 am on Thu, Fri and Sat.

The restaurant location isn't great. It is next to and Irish pub/bar & restaurant. I had the gyro sandwich which wasn't too tasty and they don't sell French fries at all which I thought it was odd. I saw other people order the chicken Kabab and that looked good and wished I would have had that instead of the gyro sandwich.

Love this place for either lunch or dinner. Great location, reasonably priced, courteous staff. You will probably have to double park in their parking lot but the waiters are good about making sure you can get out when you need to. The decorations are extremely authentic and add to the overall feel of the place. My favorite dishes are the "Iskendar kebob" (a mix of meat, yogurt, bread, and their special sauce) and "firin sutlac" (rice pudding). Their "Ali Nazik" made of eggplant was a disappointment. They have great appetizers and sandwiches.

Clean place, but tight on parking. In the evenings and on weekends...really hard to park;however, the staff do help move cars if you double park. The food is great...their sesame bread is delicious. Their chicken adana kebabs are really nice for those who like it spicy.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Houston and I've gotten several friends hooked on the place too. The food is yummy and affordable, the portions generous to just right, the staff courteous, and in a very convenient location (Rice Village). It is a casual restaurant without pretentions.

place was dirty and I got sick from eating the kababs there. I do not think they were cooked all the way.

The restaurant has a very good selection of freshly grilled items. The food is made upon order and the service was quick. The sweets are tasty as well. The restaurant itself is quite charming with its traditional Turkish decorations and the staff was very friendly. I really like its location (in Rice Village)--the place is quite popular and busy on weekends.
