This place was hopping!!!!! You feel like you're being whisked away to some modest Turkish restaurant outside Istanbul when you step inside. The reason why this place gets an instant 5 stars from me is because anything baked, and I do mean anything, that comes out of their oven is absolutely fresh and delicious and tastes like it was baked just for me. The bread served with their Turkish dip already got us off to the right spot. Couldn't believe this was complimentary, this could be a dish all on its own. I especially loved their falafel which was noticeably and obviously made in house. Super crunchy on the outside, warm and herbaceous on the inside (the green color inside from the herbs is always a dead giveaway that these were made in house). The Lachuman was perfectly oversized and bursting with so many flavors. I added the complimentary cabbage salad inside and folded it in half for an absolutely exquisite bite. My wife was not too crazy about her Doner wrap. I think the pickle inside was a little off, kinda tasted fishy, but when removed, it was far more enjoyable. My Beyti needed a little additional salt on top, but when eaten with their yogurt (which wasn't too tangy surprisingly) it lended itself to a very superb bite. All of this was around $70 bucks! Not a bad deal at all! Can't wait to come back! read more

30 dollar kebab dry with no sauce. No. Sauce. Dry. Bland. Sad. Hopefully it was just a mistake. read more

I was visiting Dallas and my husband and I love trying anything Turkish and Mediterranean. We found this restaurant using Yelp, of course, and came here because of the great food reviews. When we first arrived, they asked if we had a reservation and when we said no, they were still accommodating. When we were seated, they brought out some bread with some sort of red sauce and cabbage, slaw, very good and refreshing. I wish the bread would've been warm, but that's OK. Our server was really sweet, but he barely spoke English, we had about three different people helping us I guess for the sake of translating and making sure that they understood what we wanted. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! The hummus was truly amazing and we really loved the feta rolls. We also ordered a little beef pocket, it looked more like the shape of a lemon, but it was really good even though it was small, I would definitely order it again. The lamb soup was very good, but very gamey. It had a lot of fat, bone, and collagen, so squeezing a lot of lemon on it really helped cut through the richness of it. My husband absolutely loved the rice and fries, the chicken was OK, it definitely needed some sort of sauce to go with it, and the lamb skewers were really good but a tiny bit overdone. I would personally come back here just to eat a bunch of appetizers, to me they were definitely more the star of the show. I also ordered a hot tea, which was a nice refreshing pallet cleanser after a wonderful dinner. It is a little bit, pricey, but worth it. read more

Incredible hospitality with fresh and delicious food. Joseph was our server and we were well taken care of. I highly recommend for when you're in Plano and need a flavorful experience. My husband and I are excited to go back to try the baklava. read more

I loved everything we ordered. It all tasted like it was made from high-quality ingredients without cutting corners. There were some questions in our group as to whether the cağ kebap was made authentically, being thicker cut than traditional cağ and chewier and not as seasoned, it was still delicious. We loved the cağ kebap wrap more than the platter. Service was excellent - not overbearing and not missing anything. The Turkish tea post-meal was included with the meal (as it should be for a traditional Turkish meal). 10 AM We came specifically for the cağ kebap on Sunday morning since they open earlier (10 AM), but that is only for the brunch buffet. You have to come back after 12 PM for regular service. I love how the menu online presents high-resolution images of dishes, and everything looks mouth-wateringly delicious. Prices are also not over-the-top for what you are getting at the quality they are serving ($15 doner wrap, $8 lahmacun, etc). read more

Outstanding service and delicious food! ​We had an incredible dining experience at Prime Restaurant, largely thanks to our server, Mustafa and the hostess! He was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. The food was absolutely delicious from start to finish, and we finished off with some coffee and tea that were equally amazing. Mustafa's top-notch hospitality really made the night special. We will definitely be back! read more

We love this place and come here almost every week. Definitely one of the best Turkish restaurants in Texas. My favorite is the cag kebab, but we've tried almost everything on the menu at this point and the food is always so good. You can see from the photos we've tried a little bit of everything. Definitely try the lamb chops too! The flan is amazing and we always get the tea. The hostess is so sweet and every server we've had has been really nice and attentive. There's a reason we keep coming back almost every week. Highly recommend! read more

Stopped by Prime Doner after reading amazing things about the cag kebab on D Magazine! My husband and I love lamb so we came for dinner a few Fridays ago with some friends and split a bunch of dishes family style. First off, service was super attentive the whole night, even when the restaurant started getting pretty busy during the dinner rush. We were served complementary salad, dip, and bread and our water cups never ran dry! The bread was also super fresh and warm and fluffy, which paired perfectly with the hummus and other dishes we ordered. My favorite savory bite of the night was definitely the cag kebab. The lamb was so tender and not gamey at all, and the meat was also grilled to order! It ended up more medium than the medium rare we asked for but still super delicious. I enjoyed eating it as a wrap with the flatbread, and the accompanying onions and tomatoes were super refreshing. The chicken kabob was dry for our tastes and the fries weren't super crispy, but we really loved the savory rice on the side. And the big surprise of the night was how much we all enjoyed the beef iskender! It came in this great tomato sauce that paired well with the cup of yogurt that came on the side. We finished with a couple of desserts that were both delicious and not too sweet. Complementary black tea came out first with sugar cubes for sweetening, and then we got the rice pudding and the Turkish custard. The rice pudding was creamy but not too heavy, and the Turkish custard was super thick and really delicious. I'd never had this dish before but we all agreed we would definitely order it again. Really excellent meal here and I think we were one of only two tables that weren't of Persian descent in the restaurant, which speaks for the satisfying nature of the food. Looking forward to coming back to try other things on the menu, and for the cag kebab! read more

Prime is one of my favorite Turkish spots. Their Cag Kebab, doner, milk desserts, and Turkish tea are seriously hard to beat. I've tried Turkish food in a lot of places, and I honestly haven't found better versions of these anywhere, not just in the US but anywhere in the world. Service can be a little hit or miss sometimes, especially when they're busy, but overall the food is amazing and we always enjoy coming here. read more

This place has been on my list for awhile now. Finally talked my husband into making a trip out to Plano to try it. We made reservations via Open Table because I was unsure how busy they would be on a Saturday lunch. We definitely could've gotten a table without a reservation. The hostess was very friendly, our waitress, unfortunately was neither friendly or unfriendly. She was just there; no personality. I feel the dining experience overall would've been spectacular if we would've had another server. The other ones were very personable and kind. We told her it was our first time there and she really didn't try to give recommendations or seem excited to be there. We ordered a few things just to try; we definitely had leftovers. We ordered the Turkish tea, which I love! We tried the feta rolls, hummus, and kibbeh. All were really delicious. The hummus was flavorful with a great consistency. The feta rolls were a fan favorite with our kids. Super soft and delicious. The kibbeh was really rich and flavorful. I loved it. For our meals we got a kids beef doner for them to split. A chicken shish kebab plate and a single CAG kebab. Everything came out rather quickly and portions were great. The only complaint I had was on the French fries for the kids meal, they were not salted and they were soft not crunchy. The beef however was perfect. The kebabs were cooked perfectly. We also ordered the beef Doner beyti. It was really delicious; definitely tastes better than it looks. The rice was so tasty. We also ordered all four desserts to try. All of them 10/10. The flavors and textures were just really nice. Taste wise this place is a 5/5. read more

AMAZING FIRST TIME EXPERIENCE!! Thank you to Berat for taking care of us and giving such a wonderful service for our first time here! He gave us awesome recommendations, and everything tasted great. We came Sunday night, and the place was busy! Even though the place was filled, we got our food quickly. For appetizers, we got grape leaves and lentil soup. They also give free bread, Bostani salad, and veggie salad. The lentil soup was so hearty and a great start to our meal! For entree, we got 1.5 portion of Beef Iskender. This was the 1st time we tried this, and we were BLOWN AWAY!! Wow, it was a delightful experience of flavors and textures. Lastly, we got their baklava for dessert. We were given as much Turkish tea as we needed as well. Their baklava has been the best I've had so far all over DFW! All throughout our meal, Berat and the owner kept checking up on us! Service here is top quality and very clean establishment. I highly recommend, and I will be back soon to try other dishes! read more

I ordered the Çağ Kebab Döner, which was advertised as 4 skewers, but what I received looks like only 2. I paid $31 and the portion was extremely disappointing. It also looked nothing like the photo on the menu. I feel misled and won't be ordering from here again unless this is corrected. read more

Tried Prime Doner and it did not disappoint. We started with the creamy hummus; smooth, rich, and well-balanced. The Iskender kebab was the standout: incredibly buttery, tender, and full of flavor with that classic sauce soaking into the bread. The Çağ kebab had a great grilled taste, cooked medium, nicely seasoned with a slight smokiness that really came through. Overall, solid experience and definitely going back. read more

Came here last night, for a Valentines dinner date, glad a made reservations in advanced because it was a packed house, we got there a bit early, and they still managed to accommodate, as we were lead to our table, the waiter also gave my wife a beautiful long stemmed rose, this was our first time at this place, and I had very high expectations because most of the reviews were really good, let me through the chase and I will explain, it is very good hence the 5 stars. To start out with I let the wife order to my fear because she tends to order unusual stuff, but we began with the Atom, a thick yogurt dish with a chili pepper oil, the cool part is they also bring you some of their delicious fresh baked bread, a cabbage salad/Slaw with a sweet sauce very good, they also brought us a side dish of some tomato spread, also went well with the rest of the appetizers, they were all amazing. Then we had our main dishes, the wife had a dish with shredded beef in a tomato based sauce with lots of yogurt, it was good she said, but the star if the night was my Kag kebap made with lamb meat, I was very weary of eating lamb, had a bad experience at another place, but let me tell you the lamb here is Super delicious and to be honest I stopped the waiter to ask him what meat it was he said it was in fact Lamb, he explained the lamb goes through a seasoning and marinating process that takes days to perfect, it was really that delicious and good, next time I come in I will just order the lamb skewers with bread and the hot yogurt sauce yum. And to close out the night the wife had the Turkish tea, and I had the Turkish coffee with a piece of Baklava, which was very tasty and not overly sweet, it was a perfect night at a great place. So if you do end up visiting Prime Doner, during a special holiday or event make a reservation because the lines get big. What a wonderful find. read more

Joseph was the server that took care of our group. One of my friends is a Turkish guy who really wanted to try this place out. He was so happy to find a slice of home in this city. We got the lahmacun, and the family platter for the whole table. Worth every penny. Our server made sure we were well taken care of if we needed more drinks or more of the complimentary pide. The desserts are amazing as well. I would highly recommend the rice pudding. For a party of 6 people plus a baby, the service was excellent. Highly recommended if you want good Turkish food. read more

Very disappointed. The last time we came here, the service was excellent, but this visit was the complete opposite. The employees seemed immature and unmotivated. We waited over 10 minutes for anyone to acknowledge us, and when we finally asked for service, we were ignored. The lack of professionalism and respect from the staff was shocking. Good food alone isn't enough when the service is this careless. I walked out with my wife and two kids completely frustrated, without even eating. What possible reason would I have to come back here again? Unfortunately, I'm taking away my previous positive review. This place has lost my business, and I will not be returning. read more

So glad to see a Turkish restaurant with high quality opened in Plano! We went here for lunch, first were served with complimentary salad a delicious dip with homemade fluffy bread! We ordered cag kabob and we were asked how we like it and it was made to perfection! (We asked for medium) They have the best stuffed grape leaves I had in Dallas area. The kibe was made to order fresh. And finally nice cup of Turkish coffee with a custard pastry was a Devine ending to our lunch! What a great hospitality! Amazing experience! I may go back tomorrow! read more

Prime Restaurant - Turkish coffee and custard pastry - Mediterranean Near Me - Plano, Texas

We absolutely loved our first visit to Prime!! This area absolutely needed a Turkish spot and the food and service and vibe here was top notch. We started with their delicious falafel and hummus alongside a really refreshing complementary salad and warm fluffy pita! I ordered the chicken kebab which was so amazingly flavorful and tender and my husband got the beef doner Beyti which was also so delicious! We can't wait to come back and try more menu items(like the lentil soup) as well as try the Turkish tea which they offered us complementary but it was too late for me to have caffeine at that point. read more

I really enjoyed the lahmacun , the dough was thin and crispy with well-balanced spices. The service was fast, and the staff were friendly and attentive, always checking to make sure everything was okay. The background music matched the restaurant's vibe perfectly , not too loud, just enough to add to the atmosphere. Clean, well-organized place with great value for the quality. I'll definitely come back again... read more

Prime Restaurant - Cold Baklava - Mediterranean Near Me - Plano, Texas

I tried to have dinner at Prime Donor restaurant last night. My friend and I arrived at 6:45 and the restaurant was quite empty. We asked to be seated and was told by the gentleman in charge that they didn't have any available seats as they were expecting a rush of guests at 7:45 after sunset/Ramadan. We decided to leave. As we were in the parking lot, the gentleman in charge came after us and said he could seat us in the patio. It was 85 degrees outside. We politely declined and said we would go elsewhere for dinner. I'm truly sorry that my friend and I did not fit the clientele that they wanted to serve that evening. read more

I had the opportunity to try Prime Doner in Plano for brunch this weekend. Service was great. On the weekends they give you the option of the breakfast buffet or ordering off the menu. The buffet looked a little underwhelming so we opted for the menu instead. We ordered the following items: menemen with beef sujok, lahmacun, iskender kabob, chicken shish kabob, and cag kabob. Food overall was solid. Lahmacun had some nice flavor. Iskender was decent. Menemen and chicken shish were good but the star of the show was the cag kabab. It had a nice smokey flavor and came right off the skewer. Solid addition to the DFW halal turkish scene. Would definitely come back for the cag kabob but will also try other items as well. read more

We went to this place for brunch today with friends. The ambience is great and service is excellent. Price is reasonable. What's noteworthy about their food is the bread they serve first. It's out of this world. The other items are pretty good especially the falafel and the kibbeh read more

I tried the iskander kebab and döner on my first visit. The çağ kebab was not available, so the week after I tried this place again and sure enough I was able to order çağ kebab (in addition to my favorite iskander). First, the food. The food is tasty, portions are generous, and the quality is absolutely authentic and resembling of what you would get in Istanbul. Çağ kebab is made of lamb, and has absolutely no smell or gamy taste! Next is the service: Service is excellent with everyone checking on you regularly to ensure that you are enjoying your meal. Finally, the ambience! This place is a piece of Türkiye but in Plano: chairs, utensils, refreshing wipes, the table... Once done with your meal, the complimentary tea and the cologne that the servers will give for you to rub your hands with makes the experience quite a memorable one. I highly recommend this place and hope to be visiting again! Thanks Berat for your excellent service in both my visits! read more

WOW WOW WOW! We stumbled across this hidden gem on accident. Having been to Istanbul, I am always disappointed here in Dallas. I have been to most places but this restaurant was INCREDIBLE. Their iskender was hands down amazing, all the dips, hummus and their fresh bakes bread was YUM. We loved the atmosphere, so cute!! And the service and people there were beyond kind and patient. They even gave us some parfum for hands when leaving (had not seen this since Turkey)! YOU MUST GO!! read more
