    We recently moved into the area. The food was excellent. My wife asked for rare kabob and I a gyro. Both were excellent in flavor and as requested. We brought home the remainder of our meals, which were good the next evening. The service was excellent. He checked on us but did not "hover." We will be returning again restaurant hygiene and clean. Friendly service, family business. This is now our favorite restaurant.

    We loved the Falafel 🥙 platter here and chicken Gyro was good. The owner is really nice, I accidentally ordered Lamb and she changed it.

    Food is always excellent. The two ladies that work there are always fast and efficient. I love the fact they have Turkish coffee there. Makes me feel like I am at home.

    Great customer service! The food is fresh and delicious. The prices are a little high but it’s worth the cost for fresh food. No dining inside at this time. Pickup, delivery and limited outside seating is available.

    Alaturco means 'classic Turkish. I met the owner (kind husband and wife) and her cousin). So tasty and savory and clearly authentic! If you want kind and friendly check 'em out! This place is a must see! I willbe back.

    Loved it! Got the falafel platter - So tasty! The baclava was delicious. The portions are generous and the prices are very affordable. It seems like more of a takeout place but there are some tables outside and barstool seating inside. They have a parking lot, too. Service was great! We will definitely be back!

    Food was amazingly good. Flavor was not lacking in any of our choices. The best part of the experience was the staff. Friendly service and they went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. Don't miss out on eating at this gem.

    We’ve been coming to Alaturco months. If you're looking for a fantastic Mediterranean foods experience, Alaturco in Ballston spa is a must-visit restaurant! From the moment you walk in, the clean and inviting atmosphere will make you feel right at home. But it's not just the ambiance that sets Alaturco apart – the food is simply delicious ! The Gyro and falafale are a must-try, with a variety of delicious fillings to choose from, each one bursting with flavor. My favorites are the delicious Hummus but if you’re up for it go for the Stuffed Peppers! The service at Alaturco is also outstanding. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always willing to offer recommendations or answer any questions you may have. Overall, if you're a fan of Authentic Mediterranean cuisine or just looking for a great meal, you won't be disappointed by Alaturco. With its delicious food, amazing Bakalava, and exceptional service, it's a restaurant that truly stands out from the rest

    Very good! I had the Falafel gyro with French fries and an order of baklava. It's fantastic and so very scrumptious!

    Surprisingly fresh and good foods, reasonable prices and customer service. Would've been nice if the windows were curtained, too much sun while eating.

    We're so fortunate to have this restaurant in our area! The food is delicious and nutritious, and always served freshly made. Whether you stop by for takeout or dine in for lunch or dinner, the service is gracious. For vegetarians and for those not eating red meat there are good choices on the varied menu. Their falafel sandwich is a standout and the baklava is exquisite.

    Great customer service! The food is fresh and delicious. Pickup, delivery and limited outside seating is available. Excellent hummus, chicken Adana & gyros. Terrific baklava and kanufay for dessert. This place is a hidden gem ! The best part of the experience was the staff. Friendly service and they went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. Don't miss out on eating at this gem

    Placed an order for pick up, food was hot and ready in 15-20mins. I was in and out with delicious food! This food is definitely different and the meats are on the dryer spectrum but everything is so flavorful and tasty. Very generous portions. I’m happy with my experience will order again soon.

    We saw them at the Troy Farmer's Market next to a taco stand. I had already ordered a taco at that point so I knew I wanted to try a gyro next time. I noticed their new location in Ballston Spa so we stopped in for gyros to bring back home after visiting my mother in law a few days after. The chicken gyro was delicious as well as the baklava. Definitely recommend coming here for lunch!

    Cute place, friendly staff, and authentic delicious food. Their chicken and lamb döner remind me of Germany, where I first had this Turkish cuisine. 10/10 will be back!

    Amazing food! Amazing service! Plate licking good! An absolute must visit 10 out of 10! We happened by chance while driving through town and look forward to traveling the same route the next trip we take just for the food!

    Everything was fresh and cooked to order. Both the lamb and chicken gyros were top notch. If i had to pick I'd say I would pick the lamb as best. The grape leaves were fantastic as well. The service was super friendly as well. Will be back very soon.

    We drove 40 min to try their food and I am glad we did. Me and my husband ordered gyro platter. Portion was very generous, everything was fresh. Baklava was also very fresh and delicious. I wish we live nearby. Definitely will visit again.

    Great food and customer service! We highly enjoyed our time in this lovely restaurant. My kids loved their very fresh and delicious gyros. First time, we all (family of four) enjoyed our dinner - my wife had grilled octopus and salmon, myself - adana kebab! Thanks Shahin for excellent customer care!

    Does anyone know what the red dip they give you with pita bread as a starter is called?

    Had a great chicken gyro wrap with some good fries! Everything was hot and tasty.

  • 5/5 Melisa B. 9 months ago on Google
    I just had to share my wonderful experience at this gyro place! Their falafel sandwich is an absolute delight – perfectly fried to a light and crispy perfection. Plus, it’s gentle on your stomach, which is a big win! The veggies are consistently fresh and sautéed to that lovely Mediterranean flavor that instantly makes you feel at home. And oh boy, their chicken and lamb gyro sandwich! It’s like a burst of authenticity in every bite. Freshly cut and marinated to perfection, it’s a true taste sensation. And let me not forget to mention their everyday fresh baklava – it’s a sweet treat that perfectly caps off the meal. Layers of flaky pastry and just the right amount of sweetness, it’s a heavenly ending to your dining experience. The icing on the cake? The prices are surprisingly friendly, especially given the prime location. With over 30 years under their belt, they’ve kept up their top-notch game. Highly recommended

    Everything was great with our gyros- the lamb, the pita, the veggies - so flavorful, and the prices are so reasonable. Seems like you can’t get a simple sandwich in Saratoga/Ballston Spa for less than $15 these days. Altacuro includes fries with their gyros for $9.99! We sat at a table out front. Great service and friendly people.
