You might think of hummus as a Mediterranean staple, but the Turkish version is something special. Made fresh daily with chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and garlic, our creamy hummus is perfect as an appetizer or side dish. Pair it with our warm pita bread for the ultimate bite!

3. Sigara Böreği (Cheese Rolls)

Looking for a delicious appetizer? Sigara Böreği is a must-try! These crispy, golden phyllo pastry rolls are filled with creamy feta cheese and parsley. They’re light, crunchy, and absolutely addictive—perfect to share (or keep all to yourself).

4. Stuffed Grape Leaves (Dolma)

Stuffed grape leaves are a Turkish favorite that combines flavor and tradition. Ours are filled with a mix of rice, herbs, and spices, creating a dish that’s light yet packed with flavor. Whether you’re a vegetarian or just love trying something unique, Dolma is a dish you’ll love.
