Nice cafe to visit.
Quite a busy place so be ready for a wait. Lamb chops were delicious and so was the chicken Milanese sandwich! The chicken wrap and cigar shaped filo dough with spinach and feta were just ok.
Nothing great.
We also had some Turkish coffee which came with a sweet delight which was lovely.
The coffee was ok. Overall good meal but surely would’ve liked it better if the staff had even a slightest smile on their face.
The attitude seemed very dull and dry.

My husband in Turkish and we just stumbled across this place while walking to a park.
We decided to pop in and order some food! He was so excited because he had often come across some Turkish food places that were not amazing but he says this place comes close! It is a good combination of Mediterranean and Turkish food, along with an American twist to it.
We had the eggs and sucuk breakfast, it is not the typical way the Turkish eat it but it was still so delicious.
We came when there was no one else in the restaurant so the service was great! Our server was so kind and chatted with us for a little.
He says the owner is Turkish so pretty authentic! I recommend this place.
We wish we could try the dinner foods to see how it is.
Oh– we of course had the coffee and a delight!

Located in Inner Sunset below Golden Gate Park, parking is doable.
We went on a Sunday around 11:30 and there was still an inside table left for 3.
I never saw more than one or two parties waiting, especially as there were outside tables.
The turnover is slow though; there were people who came before us that were still sitting there when we left. There was no service, but the workers were nice enough.
They seemed understaffed.
We got the Turkish sausage flatbread 🫓.
The sausage was smoked and there was a decent amount of other toppings as well.
The Jerusalem eggs benedict had perfectly poached eggs, and the hollandaise sauce wasn't too heavy.
The Dutch baby was a bit too dense for me.
It tasted like Hawaiian custard butter mochi. There was tabasco sauce, maple syrup, and orange candied peels in syrup (plus other condiments I didn't use) conveniently already on every table.
