"Went here with Turkish friends and was amazed at the freshness and quality of the meal. We had a combination platter and the kebabs were well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Highly recommend and will be returning."

"This was a delightful surprise -- a fresh Mediterranean salad with chicken kebab. Small cubes of fresh feta, tomatoes, cucumber with black olives, finely chopped red onions and small pieces of lettuce. There were also dishes of pickled onions, something made from eggplant, and a bowl of other greens ((including fresh dill), served with 3 pieces of puffy pita. Well prepared, all. For dessert, I'm taking home some small pastry that looks like a baklava relative. What a treat this has been."

"Most authentic Turkish food in Boston. Their kebabs are so succulent and flavorful it literally transported me right back to Turkey! They bring complementary salads with each meal as well. I highly recommend getting the mixed grill platter. We can’t wait to be back! Definitely go here if you want the real deal."

"Wow! I am absolutely speechless. The attention, atmosphere, and food here are truly amazing. You definitely shouldn't doubt it - just go ahead and eat here. It was so good that I didn't even take pictures of the food because I was too busy enjoying it. On top of that, they also offered tea and coffee."

"My parents had gone to try it out and they sent me pictures of all the food and told me how good it was , so of course I had to tell them to take me also ! Loved it so much and they were able to make all the accommodations I asked for since I am pregnant. Service was okay but understood because they are really busy and it’s a family business which I completely support. Lovely service, amazing food, great time and fast :) will definitely be a regular here ! Thank you again and keep up the good work"
