The restaurant is a little dull, not much going on in the decor area but the food is something else, masha Allah the food is so wonderful. I had a lemonade with mint and it was so refreshing🍹the food is amazing, first time I gave Turkish food 🥘 and I was pleasantly impressed and happy 😊. The food presentation was great and they staff super attentive. A must visit 🍽️ bon appetite 🥄

I have ordered a Cesar salad. I received a salad that you can name it a lettuce, mayonnaise and chicken salad but it can never be called a Cesar salad. I advise your "chef" to google the Cesar salad recipe, but I will give him an overview anyway in case he will not google it.
A Cesar salad is dressed with the Cesar dressing, which contains (an egg, anchovies, olive oil, black pepper, garlic, parmesan cheese...) not with mayonnaise or a ranch sauce.

- Chicken
- Lettuce

I expected better from this restaurant due to its longevity but I was disappointed in the quality of meat. Usually turkish meat is the best but it wasn't the case.

We ordered many items like Iskender, pides, doner, mahashi and tajen. All were very average and lacking taste and flavor. The only good thing in our experience was the service and the desserts.

I strongly don't recommend this restaurant even to my enemies!! Frankly, It was one of the worst dining experiences ever.

I went there with the family for a late lunch or an early dinner ( about 17:00 pm). The restaurant was a little busy however, the service was very bad upstairs where they call it (family section). The seats were not clean, not organized properly, and the waiter was always late.

We ordered mixed appetizers, mixed grills, Iskander meet, Iskander chicken, Tagen chicken, and cheese pie. For the drink, we ordered Ayran, which was so horrible (Turkish cuisine without perfect Ayran drink, dosent account as Turkish).

Generaly, the food was tasteless specially the iskandar meat was very bad and the chicken smells awful! For the mixed grill, only the beef kabab was okay, and by the way it was contain chicken wings, which is not common for mixed grill platter.

Honestly, I left the restaurant shocked. How it got 4 stars of 15K reviews!!

Good stuff
This place is old but has nice interiors
They still use partition for privacy and mainly is a target for traditional families with kids.(filled with kids running around)

Their service is average, staff are slow but friendly,their food is good and tasty. Desserts are good too. The give you complementary tea and dessert.
But i would recommend the backlava with icecream.

Best Turkish restaurant in Jeddah!!! Very good service from start to end. They serve very typical Turkish outlook make place magical. Staff is very cooperative and they served couple of complementary sweets with coffee and tea.

We went into this Restaurant with high expectations considering its glorious exterior and high reviews.

The service was slow probably because of weekend night, taste of food was average at best.

The noise level certainly didn't provide for a fine dining experience. But their crockery was really nice.

Loved the ice cream bakhlawa.
We were served complimentary sweets and Turkish coffee.

Average taste. The meatballs has a weird smell to it. Not sure if was the extra black pepper or the actual meat is not fresh. Prices are good. However I can say the same about the food. Will need to revisit.
