Kahve & Friends

Delicious food and lovely wine (Yalumba). Had Iskender (two bowls), beetroot dip with beautiful hot Turkish bread, and nar salad. Oh, and the most scrumptious baklava ever. Service was friendly and very accommodating of our various food allergies/preferences. Prices very reasonable. WIll be back. Soon.

Their menu consists of a vast variety of traditional as well as contemporary Turkish food. It is BYO and licensed. At the moment they are only serving dinner, however they have a huge courtyard which they open in summer time for breakfast. It is a beautifully decorated restaurant with absolutely delicious food and lovely service.

Excellent service, beautiful atmosphere and delicious food. We came here as a group of 7 on a Wednesday night before we headed off to the concert across the road. Even though they were very busy, the staff were very attentive and the food did not disappoint. It was a great experience overall.

Yum! Stumbled across this place in a line of other places to eat, and only went in because some customers coming out were raving about their lamb backstrap. My husband loves strong flavours, so this was right up his alley. I loved my eggplant dish. Very garlicky, but I didn’t mind that.

Amazing food & Services
We were greeted with amazing services. The food was outstanding, the mains were delicious and came on time.
We also got looked after with a complimentary Turkish coffee.

Thank you Oscar.

There are many restaurants along busy Enmore road but it's not difficult to notice this new little gem. At night you won't walk past without turning your head to look inside as the large floor to ceiling glass glows in the warm light provided by a Turkish style chandelier. Once you turn your head, you will notice the contrast of stripped back walls, beautifully hand carved wooden tables, a striking gold tinged original coffee machine glistening at the back, beautiful Turkish tea pots and cups & the colourful, vibrant dishes that everyone seems to be enjoying. As you walk inside, you are tantalised by familiar smells with a hint of exoticness & as your mouth begin to salivate, you are greeted by a soft, gentle, smiling staff. As you sit & peruse the menu - designed to share with a strong focus on vegetables, you will find it difficult to decide amongst so many delicious sounding items. You can always start with some house made dips with soft chewy Turkish bread as you continue to peruse. The hummus is thick & I love the generousity of the tahini. The carrot dip is sweet but has a tang to it from lemon juice & creamy. And you can ask for extra bread but don't fill up on that! Halloumi is always a must & is delicious here as is the sigara boreki with its flaky pastry & light cheesy filling. The vine leaves are one of the better ones I have had & the pastirma patlican, a large, more substantial dish is a must. Smokey eggplant, a medley of vegetables, string halloumi & that pastirma - just delicious. Moving on to the main/substantial dishes you can't go past the tender chicken stuffed with Meditteranean style rice & vegetables or the lamb shank which falls off the bone as you dig your fork in. All the dishes retain its traditional Turkish flavours & foundation characters but is all made with a much lighter hand & presented in a more modern manner. Do not leave without having a kunefe or carrot baklava. The kunefe being the standout & not overly sweet or heavy. Each one is made as is ordered & is beautifully scented with orange & studded with crunchy pistachio. The Turkish coffee is well made & strong. There is a succinct and very well priced wine list as well as non alcoholic beverages and its also byo. Service is warm, gentle & as if your in someone's home. With such beautiful space, food & service, it is a must go. I cannot wait to return for the Turkish style brunch on weekends!

Came here on a Saturday night and managed to get a walk in table for 2 at about 6.45. Quickly filled up afterwards! Delicious food and well presented, left very full. Reasonable price.

Fabulous Turkish food in a beautiful setting. Some meals are just like home cooked . The flavours are excellent. The bread is so fresh and delicious. The service was attentive. We all loved it. $120 for a family of 4 and we were rolling out of there

One of my favourites in Sydney! Outstanding hospitality, super friendly staff and I could have their food every day. The mezze/entrees are so flavourful and the grilled meats are on point. Careful, the servings are generous, but you’ll be happy to have them as takeaway, trust me 😜
