The menu lists many meat, seafood, and vegetarian options, and the chefs can accommodate customers on gluten-free and vegan diets. Examples of menu items are lentil soup, babaghanoush, falafel, shepherd salad, lamb chops, many kebabs, sea bass, sautés, house-made desserts such as baklava, and non-alcoholic beverages. My husband and I ate one lunch here. Indoor and covered outdoor seating was available. The employees promptly greeted and seated us, and I appreciated that they recommended specific menu items to help me choose. After a reasonable wait, the foods were brought to our table. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Grilled Shrimp - 5 stars - Several large, juicy shrimp were on skewers and had been perfectly cooked. Sides were mixed vegetables and a mix of rice and bulgur. Chicken Shish Kebab - 4 stars - The chunks of chicken were large and juicy and had a mild seasoning. On the side was rice pilav. Turkish Tea - 4.5 stars - This black tea was a good size and was served hot. Packets of sweeteners were available. The total price was $55 plus tax and tip.

I came in solo for dinner on a weeknight. No wait, as they weren't very busy. The menu is filled…read morewith many options, including kabobs and since I typically liked the ground beef/chicken kabobs that are intensely seasoned, like a Seekh Kabob, I chose their Adana Kabob with half rice and half bulgar as a side. I started with a half order of their Greek salad. The salad came out looking pretty good and even though it was very lightly dressed, it tasted vibrant and bright from the cheese and olives on it. I wanted to get some more dressing, but the server didn't come back to ask how things were and she just kept walking by, not even looking for me to wave down. Overall, the salad was decent, but it did need a little more dressing. The kabob came up next and it looked ok. The kabob itself was more on the bland side... I didn't taste herbs and spices at all, more like just grilled meat. The bulgar was excellent and offered lots of flavor, so I tried to eat some with each fork of kabob I bit into. This dish came with a pretty large salad too, which was slightly depressing looking, with some wilted lettuce in it. I also tried their Turkish Tea to start and really liked that. Overall, the service was friendly, just not attentive at all. The venue looks welcoming and warm. Menu has many great options, I feel like I just tried the wrong thing.

The bread reminded us of a pretzel. The Juvava is beef dumplings in a soup with vegetables. Delicious! We also tried the raspberry mint tea. The staff is very friendly.

That chicken gyro meat was great and very tasty. We shared 6 oz of it over rice and still were too stuffed. One suggestion. If you do carryout, BRING YOUR OWN BAG. They pack it up but half the time it leaks. But on a very pleasant note, when we were waiting for Bus 54 to go home, a very nice young man stopped, noticed us, rolled down his window and gave us a bunch of paper towels. I LOVE THIS TOWN.
