We came by solely for dessert because my kids recently learned about dondurma (Turkish ice cream)…read moreand they were very curious to try it and we could not find anywhere in Virginia or D.C. that sold it, or Jacksonville or Orlando, so imagine our surprise when this tiny restaurant in Ormond Beach serves it. We swung by after dinner and ordered a few choices to split as well as a coffee for me and sodas for them. The restaurant was empty except for the lady handling the front so we got seated and ordered immediately. Everything was awesome. My relatively picky kiddos and I ended up cleaning the plates (it was tough, the portions were pretty sweet and satisfying especially for dessert so we almost couldn't finish them, but I'm no quitter!) Everything was delicious. The ice cream is really unlike anything you have had before. The desserts were so good, and the coffee was so smooth and delicious. I loved that it was served with the Turkish Delight on the side for you to chew and sip your coffee through so your coffee gets that extra layer of sweet and rose and it's just really cool. Unfortunately my kiddos discovered Turkish Delight at that moment too, so I ended up losing half of my piece to them and then had to buy more to give them at home, and now I have to worry about being betrayed to an evil witch that lives behind my wardrobe. The dessert was delicious though, highly recommend this place and I can't wait to go back and try the food too.

You MUST try this place. We have been there 3 or 4 times and it has been so good every time. She…read morereally is the falafel queen. Her falafel is so flavorful and is not dry which is the norm in other places we have eaten it. The spinach pies are delicious and a perfect size for a quick lunch. The platters are so large and more appropriate for dinner. So many tasty options. I highly recommend this restaurant tucked away in the WinnDixie shopping center. I am a vegetarian so have not tried those dishes but I can't imagine them being any less delicious.

So I've eaten here many times enough to say it deserves a 5 Star and more rating…read more They're not the closest restaurant to me but given the chance, I try to come here as much as possible. The goal is to try every item on their menu. It's Mediterranean (Turkish) cuisine folks, which I call "guilt free, healthy eats". What to try you may ask. If you are striving for that "Olive Garden Salad + Bread combo"... let me suggest Kofta's version which is the Coban Salad and Puffy Bread. They're not offered as an all you can eat combo, but it should keep you filled between the two. - Coban Salad (5/5): A must try, soooo delicious. Fresh ingredients. The dressing, I could drink them in shot glasses. - Puffy Bread (5/5): It's made to order. Comes out nice and hot and puffy. Plenty to share with others. - From the Grill menu. Kofta Plate, Chicken Shish, Adana Plate are all good choices (5/5) - Sandwiches/Wraps: Their Doner Wrap was just okay to me (4/5) Service (5/5): no complaints here Pricing (5/5): Best value when you eat during Lunch. But Dinner items are not too pricey. Lastly, Buffets are also offered...on Sundays I believe. I haven't tried it yet but it definitely gives me a great reason to come back to Kofta.

Found this restaurant on Yelp and arrived around 1:30 on a Wednesday. The restaurant was completely…read moreempty so we were a little hesitant at first. Inside, the waitress (who I believe is the wife of the owner of the restaurant?) kindly greeted us and seated us immediately. The menu was extensive, plus they sometimes have off menu specials like fish. We ordered the adana lamb and adana chicken, as well as the mixed appetizer plate and calamari. It was way too much food for two of us, but it was all delicious. The meat was a little bit salty, but it was balanced out by the rice and other vegetables on the plate. The mixed appetizers were delicious. I don't think I would order the calamari again. Overall, great Turkish cuisine, owned by Turkish couple who moved to the United States a few years ago.

Lived the steak and chicken kabob and gyro. Also love the three dips. Rice is good too…read more Cute locations.

Stopped in quick to grab a fast bite to eat while exploring this quaint little town…read more I ordered their chicken and rice platter which also came with a hummus and chips side and some type of salad. The hummus and chips were eaten and were good. The salad was interesting as it was a bit oily and strong in cilantro. The chicken itself was flavorful and had a nice moisture to it. The rice was super filling. For $18 for lunch it was a huge portion. It was a bit slower to get my food but worth the wait.

We are doing a Dinner club with some friends and this was our letter D!…read more I have no idea how big the place was. Out front is the flamingo room with the bar and piano; in the back there is a beautiful patio with a lot of plants and the restaurant. We sat on the patio. We all ordered different things and had different opinions about the food. My friend ordered an appetizer that the waitress forgot to put the order in. I had the flounder piccata which was really good. After dinner we moved to the flamingo room to have another drink and enjoy the piano. Great place for a night out with friends.

Went for dinner with friends. We made a reservation. We…read morewere asked if we wanted inside or patio. We choose patio. It was wonderful. Ordered some appetizers: tomato and mozzarella with basil and Mediterranean bread with olive oil. Everything was good bread was really fresh. Ordered entrees : hubby had veal Marsala, said it was the best he has has since we Moved from Houston many years ago. I had the linguine rustica. But it actually wasn't linguine it was angel hair which was fine with me It was delish. Perfect size and lots of veggies with herbs and olive oil. Our friends shared a whole fish branzino which was cut up and served table side. They said it was good. They also had a bowl of clam chowder. Our waitress was a hurried and not as attentive as we would have expected. We recommend and will return.

Located inside the lobby area of the Casa Monica Hotel. We always make it a point to stop at this…read morebar as usually they have some great beverages and their pours are excellent. It definitely feels like there's some different leadership in charge from when we were here previously as the drinks were not as imaginative as they have in the past and their bitter selections are pretty limited. My husband's go to is an old-fashioned with black bitters and they did not have those available just your standard ones. So he ended up going with rum and coke. He chose Kraken rum and said that overall it was a good drink. Because we are in fall, I tried the golden Orchard and enjoyed it, although it was a little sweeter than I was expecting. We also got an order of the meatballs and they were OK kind of lukewarm and definitely lacking some seasoning.

It was a long day, we were tired we said "how bad could it be?" and relented. We are glad we did. This place is REMARKABLE. Ambiance? gorgeous. Vibes? impeccable. Food? I'm still thinking about it the next day. Our order.....wedge salad, beef tartare, mussels, wagyu hanger steak, mushrooms. A few glasses of Banshee and a few Goose martinis. The bill was a few hundred bucks which was, honestly, reasonable. Respectfully...Certain people should only be allowed to review certain types of places. OH! Natalia was our waitress she is top tier. Natalia, if you see this, we made it to the farmers market that you recommended and met the mushroom guy!!! Thank you!

We were staying at the hotel, so we had breakfast everyday during our stay…read more Every waitress was polite and service was excellent. We had the french toast, the Spanish breakfast and the three egg omelet. The Spanish breakfast consisted of yuca fríes, with marinated steak, Cuban bread and their chimichurri sauce. Everything was delicious and though it was just breakfast you would be surprised how many places can't prepare breakfast items this good! It's a nice place and convenient for us. Definitely recommend this place.

The manti actually tasted homemade and it was as good (if not better) than the manti I've had in Turkey. The lentil soup is great and the tzatiki is also some of the best I've had. You definitely have to check it out if in Jacksonville- I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY. 1000/10 The only downside: they don't serve Turkish breakfast :(

Excellent food! We…read morewere visiting the town and looked for a highly rated unique cuisine and found this place. The place is nice inside, welcoming and selling some cool things alongside the food items. We both had a platter, one with falafels and the other with the marinaded chicken. They played had incredible salad and a red cabbage salad. Both were excellent! The bread was sold and warm and very fresh too. Then there was some white rice included and it was delicious too! It was jasmine rice and very tasty. We will have more items in future visits. Also, the platters came with a cup of their lentil soup, which for us was slightly different as it must have been made with tomatoes. Stop here and give them a try. You will love it!

I really can't believe I haven't reviewed this fast casual restaurant yet…read more We have been going here at least once a week since they opened. The food is great, fresh and the serving size is awesome. They have $15 specials with an appetizer which is a good value. My husband and my MIL almost always order the small salad with gyro meat. It is not the smaller side salad that I order. They have an even larger salad that can be shared. Meat is gyro, salmon, chicken and falafel

Susan and I visited The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill expecting a traditional sit down restaurant…read moreand instead discovered a counter service spot that completely won us over. From the moment we walked in, the space felt clean, bright, and welcoming, with a simple Mediterranean style that made it comfortable to dine in. There was a steady stream of customers coming and going, both dining in and picking up takeout, which immediately told us this place has built a loyal following. The food is where The Great Greek really shines. We started with the four dip combo, and honestly, that alone is worth the visit. The hummus was smooth, creamy, and full of flavor without being heavy. The tirokafteri had a bold kick that built just enough heat to keep things interesting. Paired with plenty of warm, soft pita, it is an easy dish to share and one we would happily order every time. For our main dishes, I ordered the gyro, which I often use as a benchmark when trying a Greek restaurant. The meat was flavorful, the pita was fresh, and the tzatziki sauce really stood out, tying everything together beautifully. The feta fries were another highlight and were hard to stop eating. Susan ordered the Atlantic salmon, and it ended up being the biggest surprise of the meal. It was cooked perfectly, well seasoned, and paired with sides that complemented the fish rather than overpowering it. Portion sizes are generous, pricing feels very fair for the quality and amount of food, and service was friendly and efficient throughout our visit. Even though this is a counter service restaurant, staff brought the food to the table and checked in to make sure everything was just right. We even left with leftovers and dessert to enjoy later, which is always a good sign. What we thought would be a quick meal turned into a really enjoyable dining experience. This is a restaurant we will absolutely be returning to and one we are happy to recommend to anyone looking for great Greek food done well.
