Random first note: they sell a good sour cherry drink here.
Went here with 2 others for a lunch special. Much better.
We all had the 11 dollar lunch special which came with a salad or soup/appetizer/main dish. The other 2 had the same dishes outside of the soup.
The soup was a red lentil soup: Needed just a tiny bit more spice
We had the shepherd salad (was really a Çoban salatası:) was more like an Israeli Salad but OK.
Appetizers:
Baba ghanoush/(Baba Ganuş x2: Good, the norm, needed some spice
Eggplant with sauce/İmam bayıldı: Solid version, much better than the baba, excellent.
Mains:
Chicken shish x2: A bit smaller portion as dinner for that much better a price. Good as before
Stuffed cabbage with Lamb/rice/Lahana Sarmasi: Great flavors with good sized portion. The flavor inside was more like the lamb/rice filling from some of the local Russian stores
I had the Kazandibi as last time, no other dessert. They let us stay there for a while.
I'll warrant this up to a 4 but only for Lunch. I'd give it a bare 3 for Lunch
