Orders are prepared quickly, but their ticketing system could be improved, as it seems like it could cause confusion during busy times. The real star here is their tahinli pide.

I went there on a Saturday morning which is their busiest time due to the pazar so it took a while for the waiters to notice that we had sat down. If you're coming here you definitely need to order the gozleme- you know that it's authentic because you can see the grandma's preparing the dough and cooking the gozleme in the back. I ordered the gozleme with meat (kiymali gozleme) and it was phenomenal.
