I have tried their Lehmacun, Alexander/Sikander, Adana Kabab, chicken and beef/lamb doner, chicken shish Kabab. I will have to admit their meats stand out from all the other Turkish or Mediterranean restaurants in the Bay Area as they are more succulents and flavorful. Definitely worth trying.

The buffet is just great. Kids love the baked chicken. The buffet comes with a pudding selection, which, again, kids love. The soup and salad selections are pretty good too. Their lahmacun is a delicacy -- a must-try. The kabop dishes are really good and well-served. A must-go if you are in the southern bay area.

Very good beef gyro and chicken wraps. They seem to have an impressive buffet as well and the price is quite reasonable.

Good Turkish Buffett cooked by actual Turkish brother. Mergheme tastes like it should, so the other vegetable dishes. You get tea and sutlac also. Kebab was decent when I tried it. Service courteous and prompt. Also they have few jars of "turshu" available.

Large and clean seating area, it is however not a sit down place, orders are placed at the counter. We ordered chicken kebab plate and sandwiches. Food was fresh, well cooked and served with spicy sauce. Portions were good as mentioned by other reviewers. They have a separate enclosed praying area.

All the portions are fulfilling with affordable prices. I got lahmacun which is a real-tasty-Turkish one and it was awesome! Clean and neat seating area with friendly staff makes the space welcoming. Strongly recommended!
