[This is a copy of MY OWN review from Google] SUMMARY: Go here NOW! Amazing food, amazing atmosphere, amazing people. Great for date night and group dinners!! I went here to celebrate my amazing girlfriend's birthday after another Turkish restaurant in the area completely messed up my reservation. Once we arrived, the miraculously mustached gentleman quickly brought us to our table. Before I talk about the food, the atmosphere and service were outstanding. It is a very spacious and beautifully lit area with a gorgeous bar right at the entrance. The staff were very kind and the food was brought out quickly. We first got the fried calamari. I will be perfectly honest, the calamari could have been better. It was rather thin, even with the breading, which could have been just a little crispier. That being said, however, I still enjoyed it and scarfed all of it down with the delicious dipping sauce. We also got bread! Now restaurant bread is usually pretty lacking, but I thoroughly enjoyed the bread served here. I enjoyed it so much to the point that my girlfriend started to urge me to stop eating so I could have room for the main course. I got the Döner kebap, which is very thinly sliced lamb over rice. It was accompanied by grilled tomato, onion, and I believe pepper. This was DELICIOUS. The meat was incredibly tender and the tomato complimented the taste very well. If you get this, I highly recommend getting a forkfull of rice, lamb, and onion. That lil combination blew me away. My beautiful girlfriend ordered the shish kebap, which I believe is lamb chunks accompanied by grilled tomato, grilled pepper, cauliflower, broccoli, and rice. The lamb was charred to perfection. I thought the meat would be tough but it was sooo tender and juicy. The vegetables didn't miss either! They basically melted in the mouth, it was all so delicious. Finally, my girlfriend got two Diet Cokes. Let me tell you something, they could have easily gotten just any glass to put the soda in, but the miraculously mustached gentleman poured it in such a nice glass, the ones usually used for alcohol. It was also served with a lemon wedge! absolutely amazing. At the end of our meal, the same gentleman asked how our food was. I tried my best to summarize all the thoughts I have laid out in this review haha. Finally, he surprised us with baklava! It was a great little surprise. This was hands down the best baklava I have ever had. Incredible taste and an equally incredible texture. It was so delicious in fact that I completely forgot to take a picture of both of them for this review. It was only after I devoured mine that I remembered! Thank you so much for such an amazing experience. As stated in the beginning, the other Turkish restaurant we were supposed to go to messed up our reservation. I had no idea where else to take my girlfriend. Turkish Kitchen came in the rescue with their phenomenal food and service. They also do parties/celebrates, which I am seriously considering after this amazing experience. For anybody reading this review, stop reading the reviews and eat here! Final cost including tax: $83.83

The food here was so good. Absolutely delicious. 5 stars. Baklava to die for. Alexander the Great, shrimp casserole, stuffed cabbage. All excellent.

One of my favorite restaurants with tons of options & healthy portions. I've never had a bad meal here anytime I've ever come here. There are 2 floors & they get PACKED which I think speaks for the quality. Service is always efficient & friendly. I will always come back here as it is the best! In

Turkish Kitchen is my neighborhood mainstay, I can't even count how many times I've been over the years. The birthday coupons are what had brought me in every year, but even though they stopped during Covid, I still enjoy visiting. My go-to dish is the Iskender Kebab - delicious slices of lamb with tomato sauce and yogurt over baked pita bread. I also enjoy the combination platter with dips - the baba ghanoush is delicious. The atmosphere is classy but down-to-earth. The cocktails are tasty. The service can be slow, but it means we are never rushed out. The prices are mid-high, but commensurate with the quality of food. I recently came with a large group, including kids. Service was welcoming despite the chaos. Our bread was frequently replenished and our bottles of wine poured. On top of that, we were given tastes of dessert & liqueur - such a nice treat at the end of a long meal. I especially appreciated that the head guy alerted us that gratuity was already added to the check. We had such a great time, that we opted to tip more! I was happy that my group had such a positive experience, and surely will continue to return.

Love this place! It's been a neighborhood favorite 30 years and is still amazing. Delicious appetizers, fabulous entrees. The staff could not have been nicer. We were here for a birthday celebration and they made it truly special. You have to go!!

Tonight we had the best restaurant experience we have had in years, and it was at The Turkish Kitchen. The entire dinner experience was great, the food was great, the service was fabulous, and atmosphere was just right. In just felt that the they just wanted you to have a good meal, and to enjoy yourself while at their restaurant. We were not rushed, we were not ignored, we felt welcomed. We're we're just a party of three, that was looking for a nice place to take our daughter out for dinner, who lives a block away. We felt so fortunate that we decided to have dinner here. We were so well taken care of, and food was so wonderful, that we all realized that we had experienced a meal that we will remember forever. It wasn't just the food but the entire package. It was what you hope will happen, but seldom ever happens. I do not guarantee that everyone will have this experience, maybe we were just in right frame of mind, and the Turkish Kitchen fit the bill perfectly for this night. You will have to try it yourselves. We almost did not go in because off to one side of the restaurant, they have a a very bright lighted board of meal pictures, which seemed odd for a nice restaurant, based on the view inside. But the inside was pleasant, a beautiful little bar area up front, and a relaxing dinning room in the back. So very glad we decided to go in. My only suggestion is dim the lights on the meal board outside. I know that's stupid, but honestly we almost did not go in because of that, how foolish we are to feel that way, and how unfortunate we would be have been if we did not go in.

A group of my friends were in town, and we happened to pick this place just by walking down the street in the area until we saw something that looked tasty. We could not have been happier with what we got for a place that we picked totally randomly. First of all, the place is popular and we did not have resos, but the staff were super nice and found us an open table that we could eat at as long as we put in our orders quick so they could get the table ready for a later reservation in an hour. Then the food itself arrived and was really delicious and well presented, just look at those kebab plates and dips! They also gave our group free baklava at the end I think just because they felt a little bad they had to rush us, which wasn't even their fault and was super appreciated. Also, the interior decoration is fantastic. The restaurant feels super classy and elegant. Great vibes for a date, a business dinner, or just a fancy dinner. Overall, easy 5 stars. Great food and amazing service. Oh and the wine was delicious too.

I came here for dinner and it was delicious! We got the zucchini pancakes and I got the baby lamb chops. When the server came over to drizzle the sauce on the zucchini fritter, he started to draw a little smiley face on it. It was adorable, the servers here have a great sense of humor. The lamb chops were also amazing and cooked perfectly. I will say that the food is a little pricey, but I loved the service and the taste!

Fantastic Turkish food and service. The bread is divine (and served warm) and while we enjoyed all of the dishes, the standouts were the vegetarian combination appetizer platter, mucver and iskender kebab. We wanted to try alot of dishes, so we got the dishes mentioned above as well as the muhammara, falafel (came with a tasty tomato based sauce) and the hot octopus. I would order all of them again, they just were not the highlights. Warning, this is ALOT of food for two people, but well worth it. The service was great, we had to be out by a certain time and they got us out early. They were extremely friendly (served the food when they brought it out, then placed the rest on the table) and frequently brought us more bread. The portions are good and the prices are reasonable. This will be our go to spot for traditional Turkish food in the area.
