I was impressed. 9/22/2008

My husband and I found this place while walking through the neighborhood. We stopped in and from the beginning had exceptional, personal service. The staff was conversational and was happy to recommend drink and food that they enjoyed. The food was truly exceptional. The restaurant stayed open later than usual to accommodate a large party of 9 on a weeknight, and they were gracious every moment we were there. The patio is fantastic and the dining room is warm and sensual. I have been 4 times this month, and everything I have ordered has been exceptional. I highly recommend! more

amazing find! 6/18/2008

Stumbled upon this restaurant for lunch while in Deep Ellum. Unfortunately I missed the lunch buffet that offered an aray of selections from the menu, but decided to stay anyways. I am glad I did. I had the gyro platter that was piled high with tender tasty lamb. The hummus was also great: garlicy and smooth. The owner offered a dish of eggplant that was amazing. The atmosphere was great! The dark wood and ambient music along with the friendly staff are comforting. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a quaint little getaway. Pros: great place!!! great food!!! more

Great food, good prices and relaxing atmosphere 3/9/2008

This was such an excellent find! It's in Deep Ellum and was easy to get a table on a Saturday night. If this place was in uptown it'd be packed with a line out the door. Think Cafe Izmir without the cramped quarters, long waits and ridiculous prices. The hummus is fantastic and we got the mixed grill so we got to try a lot of different things. More than enough for two people and everything was well seasoned and well cooked. They have a good wine list with some very affordable choices if you are looking for that. The staff were all very friendly and it didn't feel like a corporate-owned restaurant that you typically find in uptown. It's the type of place that is good for a leisurely meal. Get dessert and try the Turkish coffee. We'll definitely be back. Pros: Nice ambiance, great food and value Cons: None but if you are looking to race through a meal not the best place for that more

Cozy athmospehere and great food! 7/9/2007

Well, I am from Bulgaria, which is next to Turkey, and since there is no Bulgarian restaurant in DFW, I decided to try this new place with the closest to Bulgarian food - Turkish food. more

great food, great prices, wonderful atmosphere! 7/9/2007

We had read about this new place and so tried it out this past Saturday night! The atmosphere was nice, tidy kinda small. But we didn't see their backroom or patio which looked nice from where we were...We had lamb and beef kabobs with falafel appetizer. Everything was incredible! the falafel was very nice, not overspiced or greasy...accompanying hummus was very well made- I haven't always liked hummus before! and the meals were wonderful! the beef was seasoned nicely, very thinly sliced and incredibly tender..the lamb was perfect! and the warm pitas and oil were even good! We're very glad we found it and will make this a regular spot! Prices were very good, and neither of us could finish our meals the portions were very generous! Pros: Great Atmosphere, Incredible Food, perfect prices Cons: none- though at early evening can be warm in the front seating area more
