Rice Pudding, Tea, Pistachio Baklava
Christina M.

Last night my mother, partner, and I dined at Agora Kitchen for Mother's Day. As a well-travelled New Yorker with an adventurous attitude towards food, I've tried a bit of everything. That is, besides Turkish food. From the incredibly warm service, to the expert recommendations, and some of the best food I've ever tasted, Agora Kitchen exceeded every expectation. After watching a show called AnotherSelf, based in costal Turkey (a town called Ayvalik), I'd wanted to try Turkish food. Everything we tasted was unique, beautiful, and made with so much love and care. I'm so glad I got to try Agora Kitchen. I'll be returning for client lunches (I'm a business owner), family events, and notable occasions. In only one visit, Agora Kitchen became so special to me. Thank you so much to the staff, owner, and kitchen.

Tabouli Salad

Food - 5/5 Service - 5/5 Ambiance - 5/5 Cool looking restaurant with good food and very nice staff. Spoke with the owner, very nice guy and told us about the history of his restaurant. Interesting story, and salad was amazing

The menu reveals Turkish delights to the intrepid diner. If you like sitting when you dine make your table reservations on open table.

My go to place when craving delicious Turkish cuisine. New chef Tallin has created a menu of delectable entrees that will become your new faves. Grab a few appetizers like shepherds salad and boreks then dive into a well prepared entree like eggplant meatballs or lamb and save room for homemade baklava or chocolate mousse cake and sip your Turkish coffee while you enjoy an up close encounter with a belly dancer for the ultimate dining adventure.

Food was amazing. Tried about half of the appetizers and every single dessert and they were all great. Had the shredded beef and chicken too. All wonderful. They are open all week now too! Went on a Monday night and everything was wonderful. Good service. Good food. Great place to hang out and talk over dinner.

Baklava and turkish tea
Sara H.

Family owned and run. Friendly, warm service. Great turkish food. Good for groups. Verbally confirmed halal. Great place to have dinner any night of the week. Highly recommend the baklava.

Food and service were very good. We got just dinner. Chicken and lamb special. The service was very attentive. And the chef and gm or owner was checking up on us to ensure we were good.

Okay, RUN, don't walk, but RUN to this place. Everything is perfect about it. We were greeted by the owner, who is enthusiastic and attentive. We learned a bit about the restaurant's history. Then we started eating. Oh my. What combination of flavors and spices! I had the red lentil soup, which was phenomenal. So many herbs and spices, and a subtle but special hint of mint. Wow. We next had the meatball appetizer which is served with pasta, yogurt and tomato sauce. Delicious. And plentiful! We ended with the lamb flat, which is basically lamb on white rice with grilled vegetables, and naan bread. So very, very good! Even the rice, which is normally an afterthought in restaurants, was flavorful cooked right. Did I have room for dessert? No. But the owner gave us a couple of baklava and oh my was it amazing! We are walking out of here with full stomachs and amazing leftovers. Can't wait to come back and try more dishes. Also, we came on a Saturday night and there was a live jazz trio playing beautiful tunes. Love this place!

Lamb on Flat
Tony N.

I'm telling you now. Run don't walk to this little slice of heaven in West Palm. An absolutely amazing Turkish restaurant. My wife and I were looking for a place that was authentic and home style cooking. The food is fresh and made with love. We were greeting very enthusiastically by the owner. You can tell he loves to share his food and culture with his customers. So friendly and fun! The service is on point! They are very attentive and knowledgable about the menu. My wife started out with the red lentil soup. Absolute delish! The herbs and spices, wow! And the best part was the hint if mint. It was the icing on the cake for this dish. I had the manti meze, beef dumplings with herbs and spices in a tomato, yogurt, garlic sauce. This absolutely blew me away!! I could have eaten tons of this dish. My wife and I shared the lamb flat. Spectacular. The roasted tomatoes, the lamb, and veggies... it was all perfect! The rice too! There aren't many places that can make rice tasty but they know what they are doing! We were treated to some baklava to finish off! It could not have been better! Having dinner here was an absolute epically great end to a wonderful weekend. I cannot wait to return!!

Found this place randomly; couldn't have been more pleased! If we lived closer, this would be a regular date night spot for us. We had such a great experience! We were welcomed so warmly it felt like we were guests in someone's home. The hosts turned out to be the owners. And they didn't just seat us and get our orders. They engaged us in conversation for quite a while and eventually got around to the menu. It was really nice. Once they got on the subject of the food, they were so proud of every dish and everything sounded so good. At the suggestion from the host, we decided on the Stormy Ridge cabernet. That was so good we bought 2 bottles to go when we checked out. We ordered Baba Ganouj for an appetizer. Most restaurants only give you a bit more than a sample size. Not here! They served a full size plate of it and boy it was good! We both got the specials. I'm upset I can't remember the names of the dishes. But between the chicken dish and the beef dish, we were so impressed that we bought the same order to bring back to my wife's parents. It was fantastic. We topped it all off with the chocolate cheesecake. This homemade wonder was so delicious that my wife and I fought for the last few forkfuls. The owners were very proud of their restaurant and shared their story with us. The restaurant itself was very clean and beautifully decorated. The bathroom alone was worth the trip! It's furnished like a living room. There's a whole wall on the way to the bathroom covered in raving reviews of the place. They deserve every one of them. We will definitely return when we are in town. The owner was also proud that he is now open weeknights as well.

They have some small two top tables inside and a couple high tops outside. They had a board with lunch specials on it. But we wound up ordering from their regular menu. I got the moussaka and he got pasticchio. Both dishes came with a very generously sized Greek salad and warm pita wedges to start. The salads had tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, onions, pepperoncinis, and romaine lettuce topped with feta cheese and dressing. There was also a small rice stuffed grape leaf -- cut in half. The salad could have been a meal in itself. The moussaka was layered egg plant and potatoes with a ground beef filling topped with cinnamon béchamel sauce. The pasticchio is the Greek version of lasagna but with elbow macaroni. Both portions were quite filling. I ate my dish and he brought half of his home. He was saving room for dessert. For dessert, he had galaktoboureko which is a custard filled pastry topped with simple syrup. He said it was good, but it would have been better if warmed. Or at least if the syrup was warm. We had very good service. If you like Greek food and are in the area, this is a good place to try. Large portions at reasonable prices.

And brought guests constantly . The food was always well prepared and at a reasonable price. The owner was always very friendly. BUT I will never again go back to Sofra after my experience last night. Last night I went with a couple of people that I had raved about this restaurant to. The owner, who certainly must've recognized me from the countless times I've eaten there in five years, barely grunted at me and the vibes I got from him were not very welcoming. He seemed really angry about something and was taking it out on his customers. There was only one other table that had customers and this was a Friday night. I found that really odd because other restaurants surrounding Sofra had lots of people sitting outside eating at their restaurants I ordered a falafel plate and others at our table ordered the İskender and another entrée. I practically passed out when I got the bill because I guess I didn't check the prices when I was ordering. The falafel plate, which was basically a spoonful of salad, a spoonful of rice, a few hard burned falafel, soup and a dribbling of tahini was $33. This is obscene. When this restaurant first opened they were charging for the same plate $15 and then they went to $25 after a few years which I thought was pretty high for the food we were getting but $33 is just plain greedy. I won't even do a review on the other two entrées because my party could barely eat them. I now see why there was nobody, literally nobody in this restaurant on a Friday night. And the owner, what happened to him? he used to be such a friendly guy and now he is just an angry man. The waitress never went back to check on us and refill our water after taking our order. Despite only two tables with customers in this restaurant. I read some of the reviews where owner says he hates the fucking country so why doesn't he just leave? There's plenty of really good Mediterranean restaurants that are not going to charge this kind of money for Mediterranean food. Even if the felafel was the best falafel I've ever eaten in my entire life - $33 is crazy. And it was not very good felafel - in fact all the food is mediocre. Where it once was amazing. So my suggestion to the owner is to lower his prices, improve the quality of his food and improve his attitude

It was founded by owner Christos "Chris" Charoudis, the restaurant's menu is largely inspired by traditional family recipes. Chris's mother, Eleni, personally quality-controlled the dishes to ensure authenticity. This is the original restaurant, at the corner of Lantana Rd. & Jog, a second is on Congress, They have expanded & during covid outdoor dining in the parking lot was created. There is a free parking in front along with a steady stream of pick up traffic. The menu offers extensive Greek dishes with servers being very quick & efficient. Portions at Chris' Taverna are enormous. One plate is enough for more than enough for 2 of us to share. The restaurant is casual, reservations are not accepted, it's first come & first serve. Tonight six of us met here for dinner. We arrived before 6:00 and waited only a few minutes for a table. When we left there was a line outside. When we were seated we were given water & a garlic spread with warm fresh pita. We all shared babaganosh & generous delicious dips. My husband & I shared a gyro salad with lots of grilled lamb, more than enough for us both. Others enjoyed greek chicken salad, shrimp with pasta, and spanakopita. Everyone brought leftovers home, enough for a few meals. Happily we weren't rushed.

Everything was fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying without feeling too heavy. First of all, the portions were HUGE. There was so much food. It was perfect to order a couple dishes to share between us. But the real star of the show was the tzatziki. Phenomenal. I genuinely wanted to eat it with a spoon. Creamy, garlicky, perfectly balanced 10/10. The salad was just what I wanted after sitting in the sun all morning. Crisp, refreshing , and not an afterthought like it can be at some places. Every bite felt fresh and well-seasoned. To be honest, I did use the tzatziki and salad dressing instead of the provided salad dressing. And the gyro wrap with garlic fries? Easily one of the best gyros I've had in a while. The meat was flavorful and tender, the wrap was perfectly put together, and those garlic fries were the ideal salty, crispy side. This spot is definitely getting added to the pool day lunch rotation.
