“ I think it was a Turkish "Torta", tasted pretty good to me. Very clean, well managed business. The White Shirt guy was amusing, at least to me. I will return next time i come into Barcelona on the train. (It's right next door to Barcelona Norde). Very convenient. ”
“ Good dining experience very near to our hotel. Ate twice here. Staff was quick to provide service but made some mistakes in our order. Beef can be a little tough, but the lamb was really good. Closes late so very convenient for us. Located just beside the bus station. One of the more decent restaurants around it. ”
“ Durum beef, dolmas, 1/2 chicken, Turkish pizza flat bread. 3 large beers, fresh juice, tea. Very tasty and great service by Kahn. Post by Colombians, Aemrican and Turkish guests. Must visit!!!! ”
“ One of the better durums I've had. It's grilled and the vegetables / meats are fresh. I think they just need to remove the paella off the menu - I get the impression that is the only reason their reviews are below the standard deviation ”
“ Finger licking Lebanese food served with a big smile on the face, this place was a happy find! In the expensive city of Barcelona, the place offered finger licking food at a much affordable price range. Donner kebabs, shawarmas & falafel were delicious. Perfectly cooked meat spiced just right, it hit the right spots in sheer hunger. Turkish Tea was outstanding!! We came back for the second time just to have their black tea. Situated on the prime shopping street of Barcelona, this place was a happy find!! Staff there are friendly and good with recommendations!! Must visit for a sumptuous Lebanese meal!! ”
