    This restaurant is in a strip center but don't let that dissuade you from visiting this gem. First we were warmly greeted but the waiter. Very helpful with the menu. This is a mixture of Mediterranean, Turkish, Greek flavors. There is there three lunch special options with a very nice selections under each option. We chose different desserts. Turkish tea. Every thing we ordered was fresh, full of flavor, and carefully prepared. We were very pleased and we are looking forward to returning

    First time visit. Small and cozy place. The service is fast. It’s just has the owner serving and one helper with him. The food came out fresh. Got the gyro platter. The rice was too plain and gyro not the best. I would recommended Dimassi’s or Fadis for the gyro. The tea and the soup were hot and OK Good for a one time visit. Not coming here for the second time.

    Family owned and friendly people. The food is fresh, flavorful, and the prices are great. The best baklava I’ve ever had. Amazing hummus and cabbage rolls. The salad is refreshing.

    We ordered mixed grill for two. Food was good, but… The rice bed on this dish was enough for only one person. I expected to get rice for two, because we were told the dish was good enough to feed 2 persons.

    I love Turkish food, and this place is underestimated for its location and atmoshere but their food is really good in flavors, and the sweets are the best. If you are looking for a home-like food and atmosphere experience, this maybe the place you want to go to.

    Very fresh and flavorful. We were just looking for a light meal and dessert this evening so we ordered the 5-choice cold appetizer sampler, cheese rolls (hot appetizer), and keşkul (dessert). It was all delicious, good size portions, and good price. Service was excellent and friendly. We will definitely be back and eager to try more menu items!

    My family moved to Katy in 2013 and have been coming here ever since. Even during Covid they offered to go and never let there customers down. We’re Turkish and my family and I agree the food is excellent. My three boys usually get the Mixed Grill ( most food in one order) , love the liver, and different cold appetizers. The usuals for my wife and I is the Iskender kebab or the Lamb chops. Either way you can’t go wrong. The owner and staff are alway accommodating.

    I remember years ago when Ephesus first opened and I visited them, the food was excellent. I brought my wife over and she loved it. I brought my friends and neighbors there and they loved it. It's still one of our favorite places and the quality has never changed. It becomes one of the favorite Katy restaurants of everyone we bring there. Consistently excellent food!

    My family and I have been going here for literally decades. It has always remained consistent, family owned and operated. The service is fast, super friendly, and attentive and the food is excellent and affordable. This place is my go to when I'm craving gyros. Their shepherd salad with feta is so good I had to figure out how to make it myself so I could eat it at home, pretty simple after I got the spices, veggies, and whatnot I needed for it at Phoenicia Market, but I digress. I do go out of my way to go here whenever I'm in the area since I don't live in Katy anymore, but trust me when I say that the 30 minute drive is worth the trip.

    The falafel is fresh 🌯, and the dessert very delicious 👌

  • 5/5 Quentin W. 1 year ago on Google
    Small unassuming cafe that does Turkish Mediterranean very well. Well seasoned food that is plated well makes for a fantastic meal. I was really impressed with the balance of flavors. Service was prompt and attentive but not overbearing…just perfect. This was my first visit but it’s now in regular rotation!

    Fast service and good food. Ordered the doner plate which came with good portion. Turkish tea is a must try, very refreshing! The ambience needs some work though.

  • 5/5 Jessica Flores S. 2 years ago on Google
    This is my absolute favorite restaurant in Houston! The Turkish tea is delicious and the appetizers are the best. They are family friendly and also such a quaint, quiet place. So happy that they made it through 2020! 💞 (Sorry we didn't get a picture of the food! It was so delicious we ate it right up!)

    I had their hummus and falafel which was mediocre (I've had wayyyy better). Their 4 kufta balls plate with rice that's 15 dollars is outrageously expensive. And to top it off, the first kufta ball I had tasted rancid. Never coming back.

    This was our first time here. We received amazing service. The staff was very attentive. Everything we ordered was good. The food did have a different taste than what I'm used to, but I feel it's due to being more authentic. Everyone has different preferences for the spices they use. Overall I enjoyed the food. Different..but good.

    Had an excellent experience, the staff was super friendly and nice. I really enjoyed their Kebab; I wasn't a big fan of their gyro sandwich, but it was okay overall. The place is very cozy and nice.

    Affordable, delicious with a very friendly staff. Enjoyed the lamb, lentil soup and tea lunch special. We are excited to go back!

    First time coming in here,as soon as I entered the door I smelled cigarettes fume, I don't know maybe someone just smoked.But the food tasted incredible but the serving for a 6$ babaganus or some of the sides are not enough for one person.

  • 5/5 Linda S. 6 months ago on Google
    The waiter was very good and the food was delicious. First time in and did not know what to order. So we tried a little bit of different dishes between the 3 of us. It was very quiet so a 4 in the atmosphere. Only because it's not really a fancy place which is all right by me. As long as it's good food, I'm good.

    Went for the first time this weekend and I was NOT disappointed. The food presentation, quality, taste and service were all amazing. The atmosphere is very welcoming and calm. Reasonable prices as well.
