Looking for Mediterranean places?

🥧 Baklava ($12.90)
Pretty sweet but I like it a lot, very flaky and crispy!

🍯 Künefe ($13.90)
One of the best desserts ive had honestly. Its crispy and sweet, it may be a bit too sweet for some but the texture is incredible.

🍛 Lamb Ali Nazik ($28)
The lamb is really tender and I like the addition of babaganoush at the bottom. However for $28 I find that there could be a larger volume of food.

🥩 Adana Lamb Kebabs ($26)
The lamb is tender and well-seasoned, and the bulgur pilaf is flavourful and soft.

🥘 Chicken Moussaka ($23)
Really like this, its flavorful and tastes like ratatouille but with cheese. And the chicken is meaty!

🌱 Spinach Pide ($21)
Really like this! Really cheesy and its not too salty, the bread itself is also crispy.

🍳 Sucuk and Egg ($23)
I prefer the Spinach Pide more, this has sausages and egg so it kinda reminds me of a sandwich.

💛 Hummus ($12)
Really creamy and delicious. Im a big hummus fan so I really enjoyed this.

🍆 Babaganoush ($12)
The eggplant taste isnt too overwhelming, maybe its a tad blander but I liked it.

🥖 Balloon Bread ($7)
Tastes pretty typical, but not bad

🍞 Plain Turkish Pita Bread ($5)
Its a bit dense and slightly dry but I generally enjoy it, especially when lathered with the hummus and babaganoush.

Very crispy, a really good rendition. The syrup is already rather sweet so go easy on the condensed milk

This was way too sweet

Spinach and feta pastry, it's got a crisp like Chinese pastry, and in fact really does taste very similar to that in flavour profile as well. The feta tastes like mozz for some reason, it's not crumbly at all but stretchy and not too strong. Overall it's not bad, not a very overwhelming dish so quite easy to snack on repeatedly

This was pretty hearty too. Strong flavours and chicken was tender, even though it's called a stew it's definitely not a soupy one, it's got a very thick sauce and not too much of it at that

The pide has some integrity and chew but was quite soft. Their normal minced lamb would have been much better but I enjoyed this a bit more than I expected. Definitely get their minced lamb instead though
