Their kofte is something else. Very delicious very fast service. I highly recommend kofte and white beans.
The only thing i didn't like about this restaurant is they only accept cash.
As person grown with Tekirdağ Köftesi, it was slightly okay. The taste is good but not as much. Als, piyaz was quite over cooked and didnt like it. Surprisingly, they dont accept credit cards. However, if you dont have cash on you, you can wire money through FAST mobile payment.

This restaurant is at a gas station. It is very clean. The staff are an amazingly efficient team to get you seated, ordered, served. I have been twice to eat in and once as take out. The kofte are good, they are a Turkish specialty made with baking soda in the meat mixture which I do taste but many do not seem to mind. Choice of 3 kofte (Ofluoglu special-plain, slightly spicy, or with cheese bits) you can order separately or mixed. Plate comes with spoonful of potato purée, spoonful of buttered rice pilaf and slightly grilled tomato and green pepper to add color to plate. I highly recommend ordering the stewed beans with meat and an order of pilaf. I think their beans deserve equal billing with the kofte.
There are also deserts. Oven baked rice pudding, not too sweet. Ordered the “cheese sweet” last night to share. 3 balls of a spongy yeast dough that had been soaked in a sweet syrup. They were covered with unsweetened tahini, buried in crushed hazelnuts and served with a small dollop of clotted cream. You must try. The syrup was not cloyingly sweet and the tahini and hazelnuts combo was amazing -the cream was just a garnish. If/when I return to this restaurant, it will be just for this desert and a glass of strong tea.
Last evening the restaurant was crowded and we watched the 4 waitstaff seat serve and clear tables as if we were watching a floor show. No one seemed to feel rushed. It is very difficult to ignore their efficiency as even with the high turnover of guests the dining room of the restaurant is spotless, fresh and inviting. They deserve recognition as much as the food. Well done!
Perfect but. For those who wonder why give I 4 stars is that no card transaction via post machine. Absolutely absurd. Other like dried bean and cattle yogurt perfect. Also outside of the place surrounded by trees like inside forest.
Very nice place with real Turkish atmosphere, nice stuff, they are polite and wear masks 👏🏼 food is delicious but as for me the portion of rice and mashed potato is so small 😅 overall is nice dining and after this dinner felt very full 🙌🏼thank you.
