"Chef is very friendly. I got a kebab sandwich pita bread with garlic sauce. It was phenomenal. Fast service, great value, and a bread full of meat. What a gem! Highly recommend!! We tried the Turkish ice cream for the first time. It was also very fresh."

"The kebab was delicious, the owner gives a generous portion of meat and the sauce is also delicious. If you want to eat some meat after all the fish, i really recommend this shop. The owner is very very friendly, i suggest to strike up a conversation with him to hear his story. You can eat for a 1.000 yen for two people!!"
