Chef Anil recommended the lahmacun and chicken döner kebab! They have the Best mercimek çorba (lentil soup), lahmacun (Turkish flatbread), and döner kebabs in the City perfectly cooked and seasoned! Amazing Halal menu and great prices. I can't wait to come back for the rotisserie chicken and more. Family owned. Çok lezettli (Delicious!)

Warm service. The hummus is an absolute delight. This is the best shawarma I've ever had. We tried the sharing platter and everything was delicious. You can't leave without trying the sütlü baklava.

Incredibly flavorful Lavas et Döner. Beef was seasoned and the veggie mix was crisp and fresh. House garlic sauce is also fire. The staff was polite and cheerful. I will definitely be back.

They just opened, but their döner is already the best in town. Clean place, tasty food, and friendly people. Definitely worth a stop.

This is by far the best döner I've had in the entire town — incredibly flavorful, perfectly cooked, and genuinely satisfying in a way none of the others have been.

YASS! Found our new favorite döner joint. The lamb döner was 🔥. The rotisserie chicken was super juicy and highly recommend. Will be back!

Count this as a "pre-review" because I definitely want to go back and order more! Walked in today and ordered for takeout, slightly after lunchtime. The chicken doner was very tasty, and obviously homemade instead of packaged (they had another tray of marinating chicken on deck in their refrigerator case). The lahmacun was really delicious, and I'm not trying to knock any nearby bakeries that also make lahmacun, but this was better. Also ordered a shepherd's salad which was HUGE but I was already full so I'll have to give feedback on that later lol. Seems to be family-run and the family was adorable. They were very sweet and accommodating and tolerated my attempts to learn Turkish. Let me try some extra pickled peppers too. Everything was prepared fresh. Their menus had American flags and bald eagles all over them which made me sad but I hope they do well. Very excited to go back with more time and eat in, especially the iskender and the beyti. I'll try to post pics next time too, which I was too hungry to do this time.

My Doner (or is it "MyDoner?) is a months-old Turkish restaurant located on Lawrence just west of Hamlin. I've been wanting to check this place out for awhile, and finally went today for lunch with one of my buds. I presume this is a small family-run business. A young man was our server and rung us up at the register too, though I do not believe he did the cooking of our meals. They serve familiar Turkish dishes, and if you do not know them then the pictures on the menu will be quite helpful. The place has a homey atmosphere, and there was a minimal lunch crowd this Saturday afternoon so the food came out fairly quickly after we placed our orders. I enjoyed my "kofte tabak" (kofte plate) with grilled meat mini-patties, rice with chickpeas, two kinds of "wraps" and a side salad. It was pretty good, though could have used a flavor boost with some sauce or other condiment. My bud ordered the "tavuk izgara" (grilled chicken), which he seemed to like though one of the chicken chunks was undercooked so he left that piece alone. We ordered cans of soft drinks, and were also served a small pitcher of ice water. I'm glad to have a Turkish food option in my 'hood now, and though our lunch was "good not great" I think My Doner is worth another try sometime.

Not the best experience in this restaurant, food wasn't good at all. The service was nice, but overall not coming back again.

Delicious! The menu had lots of stuff in it that I've never heard of but they have pictures of the dishes which was helpful. Great service. The food was super fresh. We had Baba ghanoush for an appetizer and chicken pide as a main dish and a beef flatbread dish. All were delicious. Prices were very affordable and we took leftovers home. We'll be back to try some of the other dishes.

This new restaurant is great. A lovely family owns it and all work together to provide a great Turkish experience. A group of us visited tonight and everything we had was delicious. The Doner itself is very similar to Greek gyros but with delicious greens and veggies served with it . You can order either meat or chicken Prices are very reasonable . Ordering is counter style with delivery by family members. Also the rice pudding was creamy and thick. The space is meticulously clean.

The food was spot on! From the kebobs to shawarma to the rice to the salad(oh yum!!!) my husband and I can't wait to go back! We were too stuffed to have dessert and we have to! They've only been open a week and we saw it while going down Lawrence and so glad we stopped because the food was delicious

There were twelve of us in our "Cheap Dining" group. This restaurant was absolutely perfect for us. Reasonably priced, excellent, unusual food, and friendly and accommodating. Quiet enough for us to chat and parking g right out in front!
