What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Truva Turkish Kitchen is celebrated for its authentic and high-caliber Mediterranean and Turkish cuisine, with many diners praising the flavorful dishes like mixed grills and desserts. The service is frequently highlighted as stellar and exceptionally kind. While the atmosphere is described as simple or lacking, it is consistently overshadowed by the quality of the food and the warmth of the staff. Some diners note that the prices can be a bit high, and there was one mention of a hair found in a takeout baklava.
"We got the mixed grill, Turkish pepperoni flatbread, & lahmacun as our main course, 10/10; the mixed grill offers a lot of variety. The babaganoush was really good too. Desserts are always the bomb! Overall a beautiful restaurant with amazing food:)"

"A very good Turkish restaurant. One of my coworkers came from Istanbul, Turkey and said the food was fairly authentic. The flavoring was very well balanced and the server was very helpful. Just a tad expensive at about $35/person just for lunch."
Allan
"The food was delicious but most importantly such kind people working in the shop. I left my purse at the table and our server Birol literally ran my bag to our car as we drove off. So kind-"
