I JUST discovered this restaurant with my family who have high expectations of Turkish food in general. This spot just blew our mind.
We have tried the following items as main course which I HIGHLY recommend:
- Kiymali Pide (If you don't like your food spicy, ask for the non-spicy meat for this one. Otherwise the meat is spicy, but delicious for those who like a little spice)
- Peynirli Pide (They use a delicious authentic Turkish mozzarella cheese for this one)
- Karisik Pide (A little bit of everything)
- Kapali Pide (Similiar to Kiymali Pide, but the top of the pide is closed as well and a bit less spicy)
- Iskender Kebap (Although Alara specializes in pides, this authentic Turkish dish is DELICIOUS!)
Although I have reviewed Turkish Grill as well, I would definitely choose Alara over Turkish Grill. Don't get me wrong, Turkish Grill is delicious as well but Alara just actually blew my mind :P
