Kazan Restaurant

"We went to Kazan last night for dinner and it was refreshing to still see a mom and pop restaurant in the area be so busy. We started with the Albanian liver and the meze for two. For the main course, we got the doner kebab, swordfish kebab and the lamb shank. The food was superb and the service was outstanding. We will definitely be back."

"We visited on Saturday night, and unfortunately, the elderly hostess made us feel like an inconvenience right from the start. Despite available tables inside, she seated us in a cold corner under a tent. The lack of hospitality from the hostess was disheartening, as attitude is everything in life. Now, turning to the main event—the food. The doner kebab was a major letdown; the meat lacked flavor and was excessively oily, making it the worst we've ever had. While the lentil soup was okay, the mushy rice was another disappointment. We no longer trust the past 5-star comments given by the restaurant; it seems like a scam. Considering our combined experiences with doner kebabs across various states, including Turkey, this meal at Kazan was undoubtedly the most unsatisfactory one. We hope our feedback helps improve the overall dining experience for others, particularly addressing the host's demeanor and the quality of the doner kebab. It's worth noting that our waiter was a standout, providing excellent service and being the only positive aspect of our experience."

"We chose this restaurant based on a recommendation from a trusted waitress at Agora, who had previously worked here. Arriving with my wife and our 1-year-old baby, our experience was unfortunately marred by a less-than-welcoming atmosphere. The elderly hostess, in particular, made us feel as though our presence was an inconvenience. Despite numerous empty tables indoors, we were seated in the back corner under a tent on a cold evening. While I understand the importance of reservations, I found the hostess's demeanor disrespectful. Our waiter, however, was a shining exception. He was courteous and gentlemanly, providing the only positive aspect of our visit. Regrettably, the restaurant fell short in terms of family-friendliness, with a broken high chair further highlighting the issue. Turning to the food, the lentil soup was satisfactory, but the doner kebab left much to be desired. The meat lacked flavor and was excessively oily, resulting in a disappointing culinary experience. The rice, as depicted in the attached photo, was disappointingly mushy. Having sampled doner kebabs across various states and restaurants in the US, I can confidently say that this was the most unsatisfactory meal I have ever encountered. I hope the management takes note of these observations for the benefit of future patrons."

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kazan restaurant and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality. The menu offered a wide variety of traditional Turkish dishes, each bursting with flavor and authenticity. We started with the meze special, which was a perfect combination of hummus, haydari, stuffed grape leaves and more. Adana kebab was just perfect and delicious. The service throughout the meal was exceptional. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and eager to ensure that I had the best dining experience possible. Overall, I highly recommend Kazan restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic and delicious dining experience. The food, service, and atmosphere all exceeded my expectations, and I cannot wait to return and try more of their delectable dishes."

"A very pleasant dining experience! The food was very good. We ordered meze for one (which was totally enough for two people if each of you also orders an entree), doner kebab (lamb with yogurt sauce, with a side salad), chicken shish (chicken skewer, with a side salad) and mixed dessert tray for two (rice pudding, baklava, crème caramel). All of them were delicious with large portion. Turkish tea and Turkish coffee went very well with the dessert tray. The service was also great. Highly recommend! (Follow me on IG ➡️ miss_dawang)"
