Reviews
The moment you step your feet in this Turkish restaurant, you will always be greeted by their friendly staffs. They will welcome you with smiles on their faces. The place is very spacious and clean. As a regular customer, I can attest that their food is always amazing and is great value for money. The portions of the food are generous. Their grilled chicken is tender inside and slightly charred outside which gives you that smoky flavorful taste. Their famous Asaraya long bread - served hot, crispy outside and soft inside, and the grilled meats are so tasteful. We were not satisfied with their food only, but with the service their staffs are giving to their customers too.
Heard a lot about their Turkish food so went there on a Friday night. It was still early so we got seated immediately. The open kitchen and area seating the menfolk is actually a pleasant open space. The family seating is a little cramped and made into small cubicles. We tried their iskender kebab which came with a portion of meat in a tomato paste, pieces of Turkish bread,a choice between garlic flavoured yoghurt/ plain thick yoghurt, and flavoured rice. The rice was delicious, the meat was tender and tangy, not spicy. The Adana kabab was very good and came with Turkish bread. They also served us a fresh warm bread which was jumbo sized and crunchy and soft and absolutely delicious! You need 4-6 people to finish that size of a bread. We also ordered a lemon mint drink which was too sour and at 13 riyals wasn't worth it. The bakalava was yummy! Sweet, flaky and dense pastry with a good amount of pistachio. The prices are steep that is it's definitely expensive. The taste is authentic and definitely worth trying. Go if you're craving good Turkish cuisine
Everything was delicious and worth the price. Staff was so friendly. Separate cabin sitting for families. Hygienic. Was served by Shahabidin 🫡
Marvelous atmosphere & yummy food 😋 So much of sitting places. Upstairs is for families. Food is served hot. Staff is Friendly and caring. Lots of variety of Turkish delicacies. Parking is paid in front of the Hotel. This is a must try place with family and friends.
Nice food. Try minced meat with cheese. Long turkish bread is awesome. There is enough parking but you must pay via Riyadh parking app. 3.34 SR (with tax) per hour.
