Not bad but in a city with as much great Middle Eastern food as Atlanta, it only makes sense to reach beyond Truva. Spots I would rather recommend for a nice night out are Delbar, Rumi's, and Yalda. My friends and I tried the Muhammara Dip, the Feta Cheese Rolls (reminiscent of spanakopita but no spinach and in roll form), the Truva Dumplings, and the Iskender Kebab. The Iskender Kebab and the Muhammara were the best of the bunch, but overall I think I was expecting more punch from the spices and greater nuance in the flavors of each dish. The thing I honestly enjoyed most was the complimentary bread and sun-dried tomato dip, which has gotten a number of shoutouts of Yelp already. I would come back to this spot to get a handful of appetizers, eat that bread, and hang out for a few hours. It does seem like the restaurant needs more staffing. Everyone we saw was very kind, but it took a long time to get a server's attention whenever we needed something.
I've been to this restaurant a couple times now, and I'm still so surprised by how it's not insanely packed out--although that may be due to going there during random lunch days. Both times I've gone, I ordered the same thing because it's so insanely delicious! I had the Adana, which is made of lamb. The plate comes with rice and some vegetables that go perfectly together. The rice is so simple, but it's well cooked and so delicious. It also comes with red onions, a grilled tomato, and greens that were tossed in a lemony sauce--absolute perfection! They also provide you with complimentary bread with a sun-dried tomato sauce that is simply addicting! Definitely recommend checking this place out!
I absolutely love this place. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Our server was incredible -- full of energy and genuinely attentive. My must‑have appetizers are always the grape leaves, perfectly tender and wrapped around a savory, flavorful filling, and the Haydari, a rich yogurt‑based dip blended with feta and plenty of fresh herbs. Pure deliciousness every time. For our main courses, we enjoyed a spread of vibrant, flavorful dishes, including the hearty adana and the comforting cabbage rolls (you can see them in my photos). Every visit feels cozy, inviting, and wonderfully hospitable. It's truly one of those places that keeps you coming back.
Visited Truva for a girls' night out on a Friday. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. What made it even better was that the restaurant wasn't overly crowded, allowing us to enjoy our conversation without any distractions. I would highly consider trying Truva again for another dining experience. By the way, when you arrive, don't forget to ask for the bread. The dipping sauce they serve with it is flavorful.
Incredible service, great meal. We were seated in a back corner booth - whole restaurant is beautiful, but especially loved our spot. Started with the babagannoush and liked the flavors but thought it could be better if it was served with pita. + complimentary bread and tomato dip gets a shoutout! I got the chicken with salad as my main and enjoyed both, though I wish the dressing was served on the side. Dessert was baklava (served with ice cream) and a complimentary flan - our server brought it out with a candle when he learned we were celebrating something. Really great for the price, fun experience, nice hospitality, recommend.
My family of four came on Sunday at 5:15 pm and made reservations in advance. Parking was still available on the side parking lot. We were greeted immediately and offered a cozy booth and menus. They have an extensive bar selection. Our waiter, Drew, gave us his recommendation when I told him it was our first time. We enjoyed the muhammara which I ate with the complimentary bread. It has a little spicy kick which I enjoyed. The lentil soup can be split so my kids each had a cup which was a good way to try it. It was pureed so more liquidy and not chunky. I ordered the whole bronzina fish which they can also filet if you don't like to worry about the fish bones. It was so amazing, I would get this every time! My husband enjoyed the adana, son ordered grilled salmon which he demolished, and daughter picked the baked chicken as they were out of chicken adana. We all shared the knufeh which was wonderful and which Drew cut for us and brought us ice cream to go with it. We loved our meal and the service and will definitely come back!
Some of the best authentic Turkish cuisine you can get in Atlanta. Also if you haven't already, try the mussels. Service is polite and top notch. The overall ambiance is warm and luxe as well, with a fantastic bar.
Hands down, this is some of the best food I've had in the city! From the moment we walked in, the service was top-notch. Our server, Esin, was incredibly pleasant and gave us some great recommendations from the menu. I initially came to Truva for one reason: a craving for calamari. Naturally, I ordered it as an appetizer, and I was not disappointed! It was served with both chili sauce and tartar sauce, and the portion size was huge for an appetizer. A true standout. To accompany it, I enjoyed a delicious lychee martini that hit the spot. For the entrée, my dining partner and I split the mixed grill for two. Let me tell you, I could have eaten the rice alone -- it was so flavorful and anything but bland! Every bite of the meal was delightful. Overall, my dining experience at Truva was exceptional, and I will definitely be back. Highly recommend!
The food and service at Truva Turkish Kitchen in Virginia-Highland were outstanding. I give this place 4.5 stars rounded up to 5. This is perhaps the best Turkish restaurant in metro Atlanta. That said, there aren't many. Delbar and Cafe Agora come to mind. When it comes to Mediterranean food more generally, I think Truva still compares favorably to the competition. I went to the original Truva in downtown Atlanta during Dragon Con: https://bit.ly/47VHTBa That location closed in June 2020, leaving only this one: https://bit.ly/4bf7hom This location replaced American Roadhouse in Virginia-Highland in February 2019. We visited this location for a Sunday lunch. At that time, I was somewhat surprised to see a brunch and breakfast menu, which wasn't on Truva's website when I checked. The menu had a lot of egg dishes (e.g., omelets, Eggs Benedict) and also incorporated Turkish foods like beef soujuk (sujuk - spicy fermented sausage) and borek (pastries/pies). Truva is on OpenTable and they award points. Book your reservation there and earn points which can be used to redeem restaurant discounts, Amazon gift cards, hotel stays, and more. Here's what three of us shared: Hot Meze * Octopus ($16) - chargrilled Mediterranean octopus, arugula salad, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, grilled tomato caper sauce, hummus * Mutebbel ($14) - smoked eggplant, dehydrated yogurt, garlic, walnut, paprika, butter Chargrilled Kebabs * Mixed Grill for Two ($62) plus One ($35) - chargrilled adana, chicken kebab, beef kebab, shaved doner, Turkish rice, grilled tomatoes, long hot peppers, Everything was delicious, especially for a Sunday when service was slow. Sometimes, restaurants don't churn out their best stuff at non-peak times, but everything we ordered was on point. I was impressed. We actually ended up ordering off the dinner menu instead of the lunch menu because we wanted to try a variety of kebabs. The best way to do that was via the "Mixed Grill" option on the dinner menu. Coincidentally, I happened to do the same thing relatively recently - ordered off the dinner menu at lunchtime to try more kebabs - at Zafron Restaurant, a Mediterranean restaurant in Sandy Springs. Regardless if you're visiting for lunch or dinner, Truva's Mixed Grill is the way to go if you want to try a lot of items and have a feast. At the time of our visit, the Mixed Grill was designed for one ($35), two ($62), and four ($120) people. Since there were three of us, we got two plus one. The portions were generous. We had leftovers. What impressed me the most was how perfectly each meat was cooked, especially the chicken kebab. The chicken kebab was made out of chicken breast. It was lightly seasoned and chargrilled. Each piece was consistently moist and tender. It's the best chicken kebab I can remember. The other meats - adana (hand-chopped lamb), beef kebab, and shaved doner (beef and lamb) - were terrific as well. All were very flavorful and savory. The adana tasted "clean" (no noticeable game). The doner, which is Turkish, is similar to gyro (Greek). Doner is the OG -- shaved meats like gyro and al pastor (Mexican) evolved from it. I found Truva's doner to be tougher and meatier than gyro, but still quite soft and delectable. The beef kebabs were like mini hot, juicy steaks. Really tasty. The Turkish rice was a fluffy white rice pilaf that tasted great because it soaked up a lot of the meats' juices. That and I believe it was also buttered. The grilled tomatoes, peppers, and side salads (with dressing) were fresh and nice accompaniments. The Mixed Grill also came with a couple sauces, one was tzatziki (yogurt) and the other was roasted red pepper aioli, made in-house. The Octopus and Mutebbel (mutabbal) were fantastic, as was the complimentary housemade tomato sauce they gave us with housemade pita bread to start. I believe the tomato sauce they gave us was Ezme. It's a Turkish red sauce that's kind of like salsa. The pita was appetizingly thick and had some bounce. It was yummy by itself. You can buy Truva's homemade tomato sauce in 10-ounce jars for $10 per jar. You can also buy their aioli. The Octopus dish was packed with flavor and the quality was excellent. To nitpick, the octopus could have been bigger. Mutabbal is similar to, but not the same as, baba ghanoush. Service was wonderful. Unfortunately, I missed our server's name. Otherwise, I would've put in a good word for her here. There was another person, a manager-looking guy, who took great care of us too. The ambiance is elevated casual. They have indoor and outdoor seating (small covered patio). Truva has a dedicated parking lot that it shares with other businesses in the same building. Parking is paid during certain days/hours. Follow the instructions on the signs. When in doubt, just park, go inside, and ask if parking is paid at the time of your visit. During our Sunday afternoon visit, it was free.
This was our first time coming to the restaurant and it was an amazing experience. The food was phenomenal and the presentation was great. We got two appetizers (Zucchini pancake and traditional hummus), they were so tasty. The appetizers came out in a timely manner. Our entree was the mixed grill for two, it was an extremely generous portion. The taste of the food was superb. They also had espresso martini mocktails which were on point. Our server Yusef was extremely helpful. He helped us find gluten free selections. He was very attentive and personable. The ambience was great. We drove over an hour to this restaurant and would do it again! I can't wait to come back.
Upscale casual ambiance at this cute restaurant in N. Highland! They have a covered patio that is really nice but we opted to sit inside. The menu contains your usual Mediterranean/Turkish cuisines with lots of fish, lamb, and veggies. I opted to get the Adana kebab that came with rice and a side of arugula salad. The kebab was well seasoned and paired greatly with the rice. The rice was soooooo good. I love a good seasoned rice pilaf! Service was nice and our waiter was super friendly. The food did take a bit to come out but everything tasted really good when we got it so no complaints!

Looking for a cute, classy Turkish restaurant in the heart of Virginia Highlands. This is your spot! I went for happy hour which I highly recommend. It's from 3-6pm Monday through Thursday (I believe). They have $6-8 cocktails and a variety of food in the $5-10 range. The food was all fantastic, as was our waiter. He constantly checked on us, kept the complimentary bread supplied, and gave great recs for both food and cocktails. I love a waiter who explains the menu so you know what you're getting into beforehand. As we were leaving, it was torrentially down-pouring and the host was so kind to let me borrow his umbrella to get to my car. It's rare to find this level of hospitality these days and it made my already great experience here even better. read more

It was ok. They were big enough to receive a large party with ease. The cocktails were great! The menu had a lot of variety... but maybe too much. Out of all the dishes my party had, nothing was spectacular. Most dishes fell flat. Despite not being crowded, the service was slow... so we drank more....relaxed more... so great hangout vibe of you aren't in a rush. However, extra points for having a sense of humor and designing your logo to match the business upstairs! read more

Excellent option for Mediterranean and Turkish food. Great service with time and attention to the guest needs. When it comes to design and architecture things could be modernized and get a more authentic look adding to the ambiance. read more

A great gem in the V-Hi neighborhood! Atmosphere: you walk in the front door to a giant, beautiful bar. The restaurant itself is quaint but with great lighting. There is also a covered patio with heaters as needed. Parking: this area is hit or miss but there are a few pay lots close by if you can't find street. Allow a little extra time if it's a weekend. Food: the Turkish bread and tomato dip service was so simple but the taste was stunning. We couldn't get enough of it. We ordered the mix 3 dips which would be enough for 4 people to share. baba ghanoush- the least flavorful of the three, I don't think I'd order again. Muhammara- very similar to hummus, red in color and very delicious. haydari- our favorite of the three. Similar to a labneh but a little lighter in flavor and consistency. It was great with the tomato dip and bread! The benefit of Truva is the option to try multiple of their delicious kabobs. We did the mix plate for two, which came with all of the kabobs, rice, and salad. It was SO DELICIOUS. The meats were cooked perfectly and the chicken was juicer than I'd expect from a kabob. The lamb was probably some of the most flavorful with a lovely char that added a great texture. The platter came with two dipping sauces, too. I'd come back for this mix plate. Price: for the portion, well worth it. The mix platter was $35 and could feed 3 people. For the dips, the mix was worth the price but I think we could only finish 1 next time. Service: our waiter was WONDERFUL! Some of the best service I've seen in Atlanta. All of the staff were great. They were also Turkish which is really cool. Takeaway: don't compare this to other Mediterranean or Persian food in the city. It's truly Turkish cuisine and is adjacent but has its own flavors. Equally wonderful! Will be back!!!! read more

Despite the number of vast Turkish/Mediterranean restaurants in ATL Truva, it has to be in my top three. The food here is authentic with bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and thoughtfully done with decent portion sizes. We had the pleasure of being served by Roland he was engaging ,very personable, gave excellent recommendations, and outstanding customer service. The food was delicious. Everything was balanced and seasoned well. I had the shrimp with lamb chops AMAZING!! The lamb was so tender that it just melted in your mouth. All the dishes we tried were great. The menu isn't extensive and overwhelming they offer just enough to get you to come back and try other entrees. I'm definitely getting the lamb. No, ifs ands or buts about it...LOL All in all, the ambiance is cozy and welcoming, simple, and beautiful decor the whole staff is accommodating and extremely friendly. I'm definitely requesting Roland on my next visit. read more

From service to ambiance to food, truva is a true hidden gem in Virginia highlands! I met up here with some friends to explore more of VA-Hi( Virginia Highlands) and I made a reservation. The hostess got our reservation mixed up and seemed a little irritated she didn't hear my friend properly so I was a little nervous but they let us sit at our table and our server was such great energy. I was so excited how accommodating they were to my partner who is gluten free as well! For starters we got the Zucchini Pancake $10 GF, Stuffed Grape Leaves $9 GF, Octopus $16 everything was so good I dream about the zucchini pancakes every day since as well as the house bread that's free! It's so flavorful and yummy! All the drinks were good as well I got their gin cocktail it was very strong I think it was truva gimlet maybe and my partner got sangria it was sooo good! For dinner we all had different things I got the doner kebab $24 and it was outstanding! I also had leftovers and was very happy with two meals of this! read more

Really cool spot, a little on the pricier side. Dumplings and stuffed grape leaves were my favorite dishes of the night. Adana was good as well. Lamb stew was a little underdone. Would recommend for a casual lunch or apps and drinks. Service was incredible. read more

Man, we couldn't have been happier with our choice of restaurants. This place was just beautiful all around. The most attentive staff, absolutely scrumptious food, very clean, and wonderful ambiance. Our server Caesar, was very friendly, prompt, and knew his menu front to back. The dishes we ordered were all so fresh, with bright flavors. I'm always judgmental of restaurants where I have to salt my food. Here at Truva , you will not need salt or any extra seasoning for your dishes. They were all a 10/10!!!We ate until our waistlines were bulging, and still had a ton of leftovers. We had a reservation for 6:15, and by 7, they were at capacity. I would highly recommend a reservation on the weekend. This will be our Mediterranean go to from here on. Do not pass this one up! read more

Glad to know the food at this place has not changed! It's still as good as my last visit here. I've been here a few times and the food has always been very good. Unfortunately, their service is still the same and mediocre. There's parking in the back of the building that could be tight if there's a car coming the opposite way. We ended up paying but didn't think it was necessary on the weekends as we dined here on a Saturday. We made a reservation and were seated right away. The place is cozy and nicely decorated. As soon as we sat, our server poured water into our glasses but since we were still waiting for the rest of our party, he didn't come back until way later. My favorite about this place is their complimentary bread basket with the most delicious dip. It's tomato, olive oil dip that's so good I can bathe in it. Our table ordered fried calamari and hummus as starters. The calamari was greasy but tender. Hummus was delicious and served with veggies instead of pita, but I'm assuming that was done that way because of the bread that was already served. I feel like we waited close to 30 mins until we got our entrees. The shrimp kebab plate only came with one kebab but this was more than enough to satisfy me. It was served with 5 big pieces of shrimp, pepper, onion kebab and side salad, Turkish rice and sliced tomatoes. I didn't really care for the sauce, it was like a spicy mayo sauce but wish I requested for tzatziki instead. We celebrated a birthday so once our table was cleared, the server dropped off a dessert with a candle for the birthday boy, kind of in an abrupt manner. He then dropped off the after dinner drinks and dessert menu. Food here is delicious so if you're in the area, it's a definite must try! read more

I Google some Turkish restaurants and this one came up. There is paid parking in the lot across the street and also some street parking. It has a very modern and sleek feel to it but not too uptight in there. The staff were really friendly and responsive. Wasn't hardly anyone in there on a Thursday night. The food was good, great but no complaints and you get decent size portions. As for drinks I recommend the Mule, was made perfectly. read more

Truva is one of my favorite restaurants in Atlanta. It was an unexpected encounter since Surin of Thailand was closed. I was craving Thai that day, but decided to walk down the street and Truva caught my eye. Parking is quite easy. If you can't find any street parking on the side streets, there's a lot across the street you can pay for. It defaults to 2 hours if you use the app so make sure to update that setting if it's your first time at that location! Truva's food is absolutely delicious! The bread was also amazing.. had to ask for seconds. The server was kind to package up more in a to-go bag. Speaking of service, it was phenomenal. The server knew every detail of the menu and was more than happy to explain what each dish was. read more
I meannnnn I found Truva to be just "ok." I ordered the moussaka WITHOUT mushrooms and the waitress told me that it can't be done because the moussaka is made a day or two in advance. That personally threw me off because it just solidifies that the food is not made fresh/ready to order. That might not be a problem for others but for me I didn't like the idea of eating 2 day old, heated-up food. So, I settled for a basic salad. I wouldn't swear off the restaurant I'll come back and order something different. There's many other items on the menu worth trying out and I can't wait to do so!

O . . .M . . .Goodness. if you live in (or at any point in time will be in) Metro-Atlanta, and you have not been to here - GO! IMMEDIATELY! [do check hours of operation ] A friend and I dined here for the first time today and were treated to a symphony of phenomenal flavors. We sampled several things, among them the Vegetarian Moussaka which was simply EXCELLENT. (I'm not even a vegetarian by the way) The texture [mouthfeel] was tremendous, the flavor was outstanding, and just look at that visual presentation. Also, I have no idea why it came with a side of delicious rice that I could not refrain from consuming (carbs be damned), but you should go and see if you can uncover that answer. To paraphrase an outdated movie reference, "I'll DEFINITELY be back". I also bought their popular house specialty sauce/dip/divinity which I'll be treating my Chef's Table guests to. Bravo Truva. PS - the Staff . . . equally outstanding! read more
