Still the best in town

We booked for four and arrived six; they found the room without a word.

Ordered: Pide with minced lamb and egg

We came back the next night

The dining room was full and the service did not slow down. The waiter knew the menu without looking.

Ordered: Lamb stew with okra

The best meal of our trip

We came for a birthday and the kitchen sent out a cake nobody had asked for. Faultless.

Ordered: Lamb shish with grilled peppers

Very good

Solid, honest food. The wine by the glass was better than we expected.
