    Lamb Tikka PLT
    Aida P.

    We ordered the sesame bread for an appetizer. It was very good. Next time I would order hummus with it though. My friend and I both ordered the lamb tikka. It was excellent! We sat outside and thoroughly enjoyed the cooler weather. Very nice ambience outdoors.

    Lamb Tikka Plate and Hookah
    Ziya B.

    I love coming to Shisha Cafe and have been coming here for years in all honesty! I had a friend bring me here to study one day and I've been coming since. The ambiance here is wonderful and I love coming back either by myself or with friends (especially after work to relax and eat.) I've learned very early on to trust anyone that works here because their recommendations for food and for hookah never disappoint. My first time having hookah one of the wonderful women that works here quite literally said "here, let me make it for you - I make great hookah" and I've been getting the same order ever since. Tonight one of the guys here switched up my order for me since they were out of a Shisha flavour I wanted to try and got me a new blend that was amazing! Tonight our waitress Eslam was so sweet and took great care of us (like always with anyone here!!) and totally made it look easy dealing with so many people. Shisha Cafe is honestly one of my favourite places to hang out late at night to relax. Also I totally recommend the lamb tikka plate (this is the only place I eat lamb!), the pistachio dream cake, kunafa, and especially their Iraqi chai!

    Briyani rice is a must

    The briyani rice is must add to your plate. First time here and the service was top notch. Ask the waiter/waitress if you don't know what to order, they have great suggestions.

    Best Chai Karak in SA  My server Aiden was very helpful and very attentive, if you ever decide to come by definitely ask for Aiden

    Best karak chai i swear, Aiden is a very good server and helped me answer any questions i had about anything. Definitely ask for him if you decude to come by

    1/2 Char Grilled Chicken - very dry.

    Don't come here not expecting to pay for a drink. Couldn't even get a glass of water. Okay, maybe that's not completely strange but for me it was. The food was okay. Not great. Dolmas were loosely rolled, although their flavor was good. Cheese pizza was excellent. It was okay, but I don't think I'll be returning.

    Hookah

    Before I started this review, this place was overall amazing and I would come here again. I ordered a chocolate milkshake. They ended up giving me a strawberry one on accident, then they gave me another chocolate milkshake no charge. The strawberry was mid. The chocolate was very chocolatey and tasted like they just put ice cream in a cup and melted it in a microwave. The milkshakes were not terrible. It is honestly up to your personal preference. I DO recommend coming here. The falafel was shmackin... it was bussin. The food here looked and tastes great. The presentation was top tier. The hookah was amazing. They kept up with the burning coals and maintained your smoking experience. AWESOME PLACE TO EAT AND PUFF ON HOOKAH.

    I had dinner at Selda for the first time last night and it was absolutely delicious and the service…read morewas fantastic. The ambiance was upscale relaxed and it had a local family feel. The food was fresh and well prepared. For apps we had the stuffed dates and shrimp (both were perfect) For the entree, we ate the lamb with eggplant and the grilled salmon. The portions are very filling and balanced. Tea was also served and the chocolate cake they served for my birthday was probably the best I've had in a very very long time! Thank you Selda for a wonderful birthday dinner!

    If you're looking for truly authentic Turkish food in Texas, Selda Mediterranean Kitchen & Bar sets…read morethe standard not just for San Antonio, but easily for Austin and Houston as well. From the moment the food hits the table, it's clear this isn't just "Mediterranean-inspired" cooking, it's the real experience. The flavors, spices, and preparation take you straight to Istanbul. You can tell there's a deep respect for traditional recipes, from the balance of seasoning to the freshness of ingredients and the way meats are grilled to perfection. The mixed grill is a must order, giving you a full tour of perfectly cooked kebabs that are juicy, smoky, and incredibly satisfying. The lahmacun is thin, crispy, and packed with flavor, the kind of dish you think you'll share but end up keeping to yourself. And the lentil soup, simple as it sounds, is rich, comforting, and done exactly how it should be. Even beyond those, the menu is full of classics like hummus, baba ghanoush, and fresh-baked bread that elevate the whole experience. The atmosphere and service complement the food, making it feel welcoming and genuine rather than overly commercial. Also restrooms are spectacularly clean. Kolonya Turkish hand sanitizer was a perfect touch. Honestly, you have two choices, you can fly to Istanbul for authentic Turkish food or just drive here, and you'll get the same satisfaction without the jet lag. At this point, yes, I'm addicted, and if you're even slightly into Turkish cuisine, you probably will be too. Dont Think Twice! Go eat some legit Turkish Food. Also on Sunday they have a buffet brunch!
