Sometimes buffet lines can look like a tornado barreled through but, the staff is consistently cleaning and freshening up the line. Considering it is a buffet the food was fresh & flavorful.

The food is phenomenal, they have a family combo for four that is perfect for a family of 4-6 people, the portions are so large we always have leftovers. Amazing baklava, hummus and baba ganoush. Good salads especially if you love sumac-based salad dressings (which I love yum). The inside of the restaurant is so beautiful with pictures of Istanbul and the traditional lanterns. Great place and right in the middle of Southlake, so no need to trek to Dallas for great Mediterranean food.

We were greeted and seated right away. Service throughout was warm and attentive, our server checked on us a few times to make sure everything was good. They started us with warm, crispy bread and a yogurt-based dip that was quite flavorful. I ordered the lamb shish kebab platter (well done), and we also tried the chicken shish kebab platter. Both came with buttery rice, a fresh salad drizzled with olive oil, and yogurt sauce. The chicken was tender and properly seasoned, but the lamb was the highlight. Lamb can easily turn dry or overly gamey if not handled right, but this was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor even when cooked well done, exactly how a good shish kebab should be. I skipped dessert this time, though they offer a few options, and I noticed what appeared to be a buffet setup, which I'm curious to try next. Overall, a solid, well executed Mediterranean meal. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

The food has always been consistently good, and is always made to order. I always go with a chicken shawarma wrap, but this time chose to go with the plate, as they had it on lunch special. I don't recall ever getting the rice before, so I was really glad to try it. It was light and fluffy and seasoned just right. The chicken was so warm and had all the yummy earthy flavors that I loved, which went great with the bread and hummus! I love the fries, because although they are simple, they've always been hot and fresh out the fryer!!! Seasoned just right as well. This is a small little locally owned restaurant, I've never seen a ton of people inside at once, but I always see a ton of folks coming in for takeout orders. Anytime I'm nearby, I will always stop by here!

Phenomenal service! The side salads are huge. Good flavors…read more I am used to a better presentation in terms of the food at other shawarma locations so I was a bit disappointed on the presentation here. But the flavors were still great.

We arrived early so the restaurant was not too busy but it started to fill by the time we left. The ambience remains upscale casual with a gracious greeting as you enter. We were given one of the half moon booths that faced outward to the restaurant. I ordered the hummus as a starter and it was very good. It's a mild hummus without a strong garlic element. It was very enjoyable. The wife started with babaganoush and loved it. The dip was smoky and very flavorful. For entrees, the kid had the Caesar salad and ate everything except the croutons. The wife had the spiced meatballs and loved them. The meat was tender and the sauce was very rich. I had the chicken kabob and I was in heaven. The kabob took quite a while to prepare, but it was worth the wait. The chicken was well marinated and very flavorful. Best of all, it had a smoky flavor from the char, but the chicken remained tender and moist. It was phenomenal. I wish I could have that every night. It came with sautéed vegetables that were prepared perfectly. And it included a white rice that had a rich buttery flavor. We all enjoyed our meal very much and we were happy to return to this restaurant. I need to put it in the rotation more often.

I visited this restaraunt for the first time and genuinely enjoyed everything I ordered. Starting off with appetizers, my friend and I ordered the pan shared halloumi cheese. This is paired with tomatoes and fig jam and is a wonderful accompaniment to the complimentary bread and olives served for the table. I'm a big fan of halloumi in general but this one was particularly cooked well and a must order for next time. For main entree I ordered Hunkar Begendi, which is sautéed marinated lamb tenderloin with red and green bell peppers over creamy eggplant puree. The lamb was in fact tender and perfectly seasoned and the eggplant puree went very well with the slight gaminess of the meat. I enjoyed this dish overall and it didn't feel too heavy, which sometimes is the case when I eat lamb. The pieces of meat were cut small enough while not being super tough, which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this restaraunt if you enjoy trying Mediterranean fusion spots!

The wrap for the chicken was sturdy and could definitely hold a nice sandwich without getting g soggy or falling apart- and it too related fresh and homemade. They had an extensive array of sides that were more on the healthy side- I did not see any French fries!!! Good! I know I can eat well and make smart choices here. Sooo, yes, there was dessert and much more than baklava.
