| - Co-worker of mine had suggested this place to us and I am forever grateful! We LOVE this place! I hadn't known my coworker for too long so I was unsure if I could trust his suggestion but he said to 'just read the reviews'... The reviews were so right! This place is amazing!
We've been to this location twice and their other location on Danforth once, I like this the location the most!
The Pides:
We've tried the veal but with cheese, the lamb with cheese, the sujuk which looks like pepperoni and the combination one. By gary favorite has been the lamb one, it never disappoints!! (As I'm writing this review and reminiscing makes me regret not ordering one for home which they re-heat nicely in the oven) The combination one comes with a little bit of the top spellings Pides which I believe are the chicken, sujuk, lamb, veal and spinach and cheese. We weren't too crazy for most of them BUT it's nice to have a veggie with all the heavy meat Pides. Along with the Pides you get served some fresh slices of white onion, tomatoes, some lemon wedges, chiles and parsley. I find the Pide and veggies are a nice duo but I wish they would serve some fresh cucumber with them, they keep the meal fresh!
The drinks:
They have this, what assuming to be, Turkish sour cherry soda which goes sooo well with the food! It's not overly sour or sweet which is nice. They have an array of drinks. The first time we went we got the sour cherry drink and another clear looking soda which we weren't fans off because it was too sweet, smelled like candy and we aren't big fans of overly sweet things.
Dessert:
They have amazing baklava for dessert! They heat it up a little for you and it's nice. My only gripe with this place is that they don't offer the other type of baklava that is served at their other location, I don't know what it's called but I've posted the photo below. This other type is so good, I sometimes like it over the regular baklava.
The service:
They're very nice ans friendly, they've created a positive and comfortable environment.
Overall: this place is far from us but it's worth the travel. The food is great, the service is nice and the atmosphere is comfortable. I highly recommend this restaurant!
