    Iskander Kebap
    Iztihaad H.

    Located deep in the heart of Pittsburgh not too far from the university, lies a small Turkish restaurant serving up some of your more typical Mediterranean affair as well as classics for the more inclined, such as Iskander kebap. Service wise I can't speak much on as I did takeout but the food was ready when they said it would be, it was hot on pickup and they gave me no trouble with paying and going. As for my chosen dish the Iskander Kebap, it is a very decent version of the dish. I could definitely use more of the smokey notes from the meat, or bright and savory ones from the sauces, but you're not going to leave her dissatisfied. I don't know what the competition is like up in PGH, but if you're close by here, I don't think you'll regret checking them out.

    Mediterranean salad.

    Nice little unassuming place. We ordered takeout, and the overall experience was excellent. The online ordering page worked well, and provides a confirmation when the restaurant has accepted the order. The menu includes a nice collection of vegetarian appetizers (hot and cold), but there are fewer vegetarian entrees. That's fine for us. We ordered a wide range of vegetarian appetizers, a salad, and a vegetable kabab. That was plenty, and everything was served with a big pile of extremely soft flatbread. The hummus and baba ganoush were flavorful and nicely textured, and the eggplant spread was an interesting experience of mostly just roasted eggplant. The Mediterranean salad was fine, but the lettuce was already starting to wilt by the time we picked up our order. The falafel were crispy and well presented with a spread of hummus and some salad. The lentil soup was nicely done, but primarily as an understated accent. All told, this was a nice destination. It's a small space, so it might work out better for takeout and that's okay. The food was nicely done and flavorful. The staff were very friendly. Definitely the kind of place I like to support.

    Mersin Tantuni Special

    Well, years after trying out Selami's, I'm finally fulfilling my promise to myself to try this spot out. To my knowledge, they are owned by the same people and the menu is the same; this is just a different location. Still, I got to try out a bunch of new items, some that I haven't seen in any other restaurant in Pittsburgh. I got to try out the Mersin Tantuni wrap, chicken Adana wrap, 2 side sauces, and their rice pudding. Starting with the very familiar, the rice pudding was great. Super creamy, a nice dusting of cinnamon on the top without it being overwhelming. Reasonable portion. Nicely packaged. I liked it! The chicken Adana wrap was also so, so good. This was my favorite of the 2 wraps. The chicken is perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned. Really enjoyed it. This was my first time trying the Mersin Tantuni wrap. It's finely mixed meat with vegetables in a wrap. The wrap itself is unique -- not really like pita, and more like a paratha if you're familiar with those. The beef is cooked well and definitely has quite a kick of spice to it. Not a ton of vegetables, but still, very nice wrap. It was great to dip the wraps (especially the spicy beef one) in the yogurt based sauce. This sauce was more liquidy than other yogurt sauces I've had at places, but still good. The other sauce was also pretty tasty and mild. All in all, this is a great place. Lots of delicious food options here, and the food is definitely high quality.

    Great spot that is also open late near Squirrel Hill! I got the chicken kabob plate and it did not disappoint! Big portions well worth the money.

    Lamb Gyro Wrap
    Rachel O.

    Turkish Kebab House is a cozy, warm little spot in Squirrel Hill. They have gorgeous rugs on the walls and runners on the tables which create an authentic feeling ambience. Turkish tea was delightful. Hummus was delicious. The pita came out nice and warm. The lamb gyro I ordered was disappointing. Meat was dry and not very flavorful. I've had much better. Very kind servers. I'm hoping that I just don't order well and the other food is better.

    Always have a good meal here! After a long road trip, we were craving some Turkish food, and decided to get takeout from Turkish Kebab House! We absolutely love this restaurant as it is always consistent and the food is delicious! We haven't eaten in yet, but we are looking forward to hopefully doing so soon! The service is awesome, our food is always ready on time and everyone always has a smile!

    The food was very delicious. We had the tabouleh & meat platter, it was so much food we took some home almost enough for a third person. The baklava was one of the best we have had, it reminded me of a baklava we had in Istanbul. The place does need some TLC but the food is amazing. I would definitely go back.

    Nice find. Some items on the menu were better than others, but the overall quality was very good…read more We ordered takeout, and the online ordering process was fairly straightforward (though it didn't accept PayPal or Apple Pay). The space is tiny and unassuming, and the restaurant seems to be a family run operation. The interior is much more nicely kept than you might guess based on the outside of the building. The staff were very friendly, and all of our food was well packaged. I strongly suggest taking a look at the "Persian Cuisine" section of the menu; in many cases, that section is more interesting than the Turkish grill. In terms of food, things ranged from excellent to pretty good. The hummus was good and nicely textured, but not exceptional. The kashke ve bademjan was excellent, particularly when paired with the nicely toasted flatbread it arrived with. The Mediterranean salad and Tabouli salad were both nicely done, with a nice level of lemon acidity and some shredded cheese on the side. The veggie kebap was fine, but generally flat in flavor: it really needed some of the sides and some hot sauce to fill things out. The red lentil soup was simple with a subtle spicing but ultimately deeply flavorful. The ash reshteh (noodle soup with beans and spinach) was generally good but would have benefited from toppings that would have probably been provided in a dine-in environment. All told, this was a nice little establishment with some excellent Mediterranean and Persian style cuisine. They seem to churn out some high quality food from what seems like a very small kitchen. I could imagine eating in or ordering takeout, but note that the interior space is fairly small with a limited capacity.

Don't expect the traditional flavor -- Unlike the pics, salad mix in your Adana will arrive in a tiny, disposable clear plastic -- You will eat at tables covered with sticky, clear nylon table "cloths" -- Your water will be served in disposable plastic cups -- Your food will be served in acrylic-plastic cups, including the hot soup -- Now the value: Soup is $10, Adana is $22, Kobideh is $25, a cup of Cay / hot tea is $3.50 (almost all Persian/Turkish restaurants serve this as a complimentary item -- Lastly they will charge you an extra 3% for paying by card Decision is yours... We will not go there again.

My husband and I ate one lunch here. Indoor and covered outdoor seating was available. The employees promptly greeted and seated us, and I appreciated that they recommended specific menu items to help me choose. After a reasonable wait, the foods were brought to our table. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Grilled Shrimp - 5 stars - Several large, juicy shrimp were on skewers and had been perfectly cooked. Sides were mixed vegetables and a mix of rice and bulgur. Chicken Shish Kebab - 4 stars - The chunks of chicken were large and juicy and had a mild seasoning. On the side was rice pilav. Turkish Tea - 4.5 stars - This black tea was a good size and was served hot. Packets of sweeteners were available. The total price was $55 plus tax and tip.

I got to try their menemen, ayran, and sweet pogaca breakfast pastry. Everything was wonderful across the broad. Truly one of the best meals I've had in a long time. The menemen was so flavorful. Tons of tomatoes, some spice, some other vegetables, fresh eggs. And the lovely fresh bread that accompanies it is just out of this world. So soft and perfect. Soaks up that delicious sauce. You must try this. The pogaca, I initially thought might be basic or overpriced, but I was proven wrong. It was so, so good. Another must try. So soft as well. I had the sweet version with honey. The honey is excellent. Even on its own this pastry is amazing, and it's just next level with the honey. Finally, the ayran. It was at this spot that I discovered I love ayran. It is just so perfect. Amazing portion, great price too. Best balance of saltiness and creaminess. So so so good. I can't recommend this place more highly. Definitely have to try it out for authentic Turkish breakfasts in Pittsburgh!

The veg was fresh and the flavors delightful. The cheeses were incredible and I could never decide what my next bite was going to be, I wanted it all.
