Assaraya Turkish Restaurant

I always go there for their shawarma as you get a good deal from elsewhere. I tried to dine in and had their chicken with mushroom and cheese. Would say need more seasoning. Quite expensive. The service is top notch the atmosphere is good. Would I try it again? Maybe

‘twas my 2nd time here and food are still amazing. -Shawarma plate for me its 9/10 -lentil soup 8/10 -beef clay 7/10 Food and place was amazing EXCEPT the WAITER! We’re calling on him already many times bus he was BUSY ON HIS (personal) PHONE. But then when he came to our table he act like he’s very tired, no energy wearing poker face! But kudos to the old man (white/less hair) even though he’s not the waiter on our table he makes sure that our everything r all good. Anyway, more training to your staff.

I highly recommend this restaurant—it truly deserves a visit. The flavors are remarkable, and the setting is equally impressive. • İskender: 9/10 – Rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. • Lahmacun: 9/10 – Crispy, well-seasoned, and delightfully authentic. • Lentil Soup: 7/10 – Comforting and hearty, though slightly lacking in depth. Adding to its charm, the restaurant boasts an excellent outdoor seating area with a stunning view right in front of Galata Tower. A must-visit!

Tried Mix grill and chicken kebeb. Taste was reallh good. Service was quick.. Order was served within 10-15mins Turkish bread was very soft and different

Clean. Warm. Staffs are welcoming. Menu is on reasonable price. My friend's go-to place for tamees, hummus and grilled chicken. Ugh! Chicken is too juicy and flavorful! Such explicit homey-experience. Always a 5-star rating everytime we dine here. Even my friend's daughter love their hummus and that's a +++ as the kid is a picky-eater.

The restaurant offers decent food quality, but the quantity feels insufficient for the price, making it less value for money. While the atmosphere isn’t bad, it doesn’t quite make up for the imbalance between portion size and cost. This could be improved by either increasing portion sizes or adjusting prices to match expectations.

I had a pleasant experience at Assaraya Turkish Restaurant. The meal was nice, with authentic flavors and well-prepared dishes. The staff were polite and welcoming, adding to the positive atmosphere. What impressed me most was the speed of service—it was incredibly fast, making it a great option for a quick yet satisfying meal. Overall, a solid choice for Turkish cuisine with efficient service and courteous staff. I’ll definitely consider visiting again!
