1 month agoGreat Turkish restaurant. This is one of the best Turkish restaurants I have visited. The food we ordered are flavorful and amazing. We ordered Lamb Doner Pide and mixed appetizer platter pick 4. Lamb doner pide was full of flavours. Great cook!!! That one alone is enough for two people (well.. my stomach is small). We finished the meal with traditional Turkish tea. Great people and atmosphere. Will visit them again.

2 month agoZeytin Turkish Restaurant in Orlando is a wonderful spot for authentic Turkish cuisine. The staff were exceptionally kind and accommodating, even accepting our order at the very last moment — a gesture that truly stood out. The food was outstanding: the shish kebabs were perfectly grilled and juicy, the Adana was rich and flavorful, and their signature lavash bread was absolutely amazing — soft, warm, and beautifully puffed. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality and taste make it well worth it. Overall, a delightful experience with delicious food and genuine hospitality.

2 month agoI’ve Had in Years This restaurant may be small in size, but it delivers big on flavor. Most of the dishes we tried were exceptionally delicious—rich in authentic Turkish taste and cooked to perfection. A few items were just average, but the majority stood out for their flavor and quality. Service was impressively fast and the staff were warm and friendly, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable. The ambiance is simple and not particularly fancy, but honestly, when the food is this good, that’s not a concern. Do note that parking is limited and the restaurant space is compact, so I highly recommend making a reservation in advance. I’ll definitely be returning the next time I’m in the area!

2 month agoDelicious buttery rice and tender lamb! Cute decor as well. I liked the YouTube channel they had playing on the tv. Love that all the meat is halal (per server). Their hummus and bread is yummy- make sure to be careful as it’s super hot with the air still in it. Bathrooms were clean too. A little pricey to me but fair for restaurants that are similar to this. Excited to come back soon.

3 month agoThere are so few actual hidden gems anymore BUT this is the real deal! Food is delicious and service is great. Definitely try the sauteed eggplant under cold dishes with a lavas hollow bread. We've tried both the lamb and chicken sautes which are both yummy.

3 month agoI stumbled upon this spot on Google after seeing a ton of great reviews, so I decided to check it out, and I’m really glad I did. It’s a cozy, family-run Turkish restaurant that feels like one of those hidden gems you’re always hoping to discover. The place itself is pretty small and unpretentious, but don’t let that fool you because the food and the service are both top-notch. Honestly, I was surprised it wasn’t packed on a Saturday evening because it definitely deserves to be. We started off with a sampler of four appetizers: baba ghanoush, eggplant sauté, tabbouleh, and a creamy, yogurt-based dip whose name I can’t remember, but every single one was excellent. Each had a fresh, homemade flavor that you just don’t get at big, commercial places. I kept going back and forth trying to decide which one was my favorite, and I still couldn’t pick. For the main course, I went with the lamb sauté, and my wife ordered the okra sauté with chicken. Both dishes were bursting with flavor, and you could really taste the freshness of the ingredients and the care that went into the cooking. The portions were generous too, so you definitely get your money’s worth. Service was another highlight. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. Overall, it felt like the kind of meal that’s prepared and served with pride, and that’s something I really appreciate. If you’re craving authentic, mom and pop style Turkish cuisine with rich flavors, generous portions, and genuinely warm service, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I’ll definitely be back, and next time, I’m bringing friends.

3 month agoThoroughly enjoyed dinner at this place in Winter Park. Had the “ pick four” with the babaganush with tremendous Smokey flavor. Murat, our server, was super pleasant and attentive. We also had the lavas and moussaka. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Definitely recommend this place.
