Turkish Restaurants near Emeryville, CA

“My friend recommended this place to me. The place is fairly simple and clean. You order at the counter. There are a few tables for you to dine in, but I find most people order to take out.I like the Simurgh kebab sandwich. The kebabs were delicious but what stood out for me was the Turkish bread. It's not like anything I've had before. It is grilled, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It is probably my favorite sandwich bread now. They make them all from scratch.I've only been there twice, but it's a place I would return again.“

“I had the Street Style Beef and Lamb Gyro Wrap and it was very good. This was surprising because I walked it quite a ways before sitting down to eat, so it was getting cold and looked kind of small. No! It had big meaty flavor and a great (full fat) yogurt sauce. It's very satisfying and an excellent price for San Francisco. The service was kind and professional (I always giggle when strangers call me boss). The neighborhood isn't the best of course, but the inside is light, bright, and new with a good amount of seating so next time I'll probably just eat there. A solid addition to the local food options!“

“I had an amazing experience here! I unexpectedly stopped by here and went in for breakfast around 1:30pm. The owner was sitting table next to me so even they weren’t serving breakfast anymore he heard me ask and he told them to make me breakfast. I appreciated it so much. I ate avocado toast and iced latte and it was yummy. Shout out to the owner for making my day better ?“

“We used to eat dinner here on our way to Davies Symphony Hall 15 years ago. We moved away and just came back this week for a mini vacation. We took a chance today and it was as delicious as ever. We had the chicken kebab plate and the lamb kebab plate and 2 cans of soda for $48. What a bargain. The food is fresh, healthy and plentiful. The flavors are wonderful and the service is very good. It’s clean and neat inside—truly a little gem.“

“I stopped here out of curiosity to after getting items from Arizmendi and Los Cantaros Taqueria. I got the Honey Cake slice, chocolate baklava, and pistachio almond cookies (gluten free). Hatice the owner is very friendly and answered any questions I had. The Honey Cake was amazing, just the right amount of sweetness, not too much. I ate up the cake and baklava but shared the cookies. My family members said the cookies were great. I'll try to arrive before 12noon another time to get their breakfast items, like the egg in the hole. This will be one of my new go to places for food.“

“Highly recommend!!During a road trip, our visit to Sumac became one of the highlights of the entire journey.I really enjoyed the meal. I highly recommend the meatball wrap and the meze flight. The mezes were just amazing. Worth trying, specifically Hummus, Baba Ganoush and Muhammara, definitely a real Mediterranean experience.The banana pudding is a must-try delight.Super kind staff, clean and great service.Thumbs up!“

“The staff had lost a couple of employees this day but did the best they could to take up the slack. The food tasted great and the lone server did her very best to take care of us. The lone cook ran her butt off to get the food out as fast as possible. I've spent years in the food service industry and the two employees did a fantastic job of keeping the restaurant open and running. Big congratulations to them! The owner needs to support these super stars much better or they will loose them. Thanks to the employees, we will be back!!!“

The price it's right loved it!! I just started working around the area so I had a great experience it clean and smelled clean.“

“Outstanding service. Amazing delicious cuisine. ChaseLeo, my son lived in Turkey. When he wants to eat the best Turkish food he eats at A La Turca. The Turkish Restaurant has three amazing combination plates with various grilled Turkish specialties for diners new to the experience of fresh Turkish food. The service is wonderful. Very energetic atmosphere. Thomas“

“The customer service is fantastic! Every person involved in the team service was a delight to be around. The food was incredible! Every person in our party raved about their dish; we all ended up sharing bites to taste it all. The friendly staff, the food, the timing...all wonderful!“

“Living in the Sierra foothills, I don't get much opportunity for Mediterranean food so was craving it this SF evening. When I walked into NB Gyros, I smelled that unmistakable but unfortettable aroma of grilled meat so I ordered their grill sampler. I also ordered an appetizer of baba ganoush and a cold Stella Artois.The baba ganoush arrived quickly and I devoured it. I'm no expert but this was so delicious and I wanted more. Next, the grilled sampler came and I was amazed at how much food was included. There were two varieties of chicken, beef, kofte, and lamb, rice, salad and pita. All the meats were flavorful and had that delicious char I was looking for. The chicken was a little overcooked and dry but still delicious. I couldn't finish this big platter so was offered a take-away box, which I gladly accepted.I know I'll return because the service was fast and friendly, the atmosphere was open and welcoming and the food was delicious!“

“We have just moved in Berkeley from Turkey and had our first Turkish restaurant experience at Turkish kitchen. Owners are very kind and warm people. The food was delicious and made us feel at home. Even our picky daughter enjoyed Mantı here. Planning to be a regular at Turkish kitchen.“
