" I was really excited to try Aksaray after hearing many rave reviews, but my experience was a bit of a letdown. While the lamb adana kebab was decent, the service was downright slow, and it seemed like the waitstaff was overwhelmed. The atmosphere was pretty nice and casual, making it a good spot to chill with friends. I might give it another try during off-peak hours to see if the service improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a so-so experience at Aksaray. The food tasted alright, but it didn't blow me away. I ordered the chef's special, which was a kebab dish, but I’ve had much better at other Turkish restaurants in the city. Additionally, I found their portion sizes to be on the smaller side compared to prices. The service staff seemed busy, and it felt like we were forgotten at times. I might try it again, but right now, I'm not convinced it’s worth a repeat visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was craving authentic Turkish food and Aksaray did not disappoint! The Adana kebab was spicy and perfectly cooked, with a generous serving of rice. The service was casual but friendly. The restaurant’s atmosphere is relaxed, making it a great place to hang out with friends. I’ll be making this a regular stop in my food journey! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hands down one of the best places for Turkish food in the area. I had the lamb chops and they were juicy and seasoned perfectly. The prices reflect the quality you get. The staff could use a bit of training on customer interaction, but overall, I really enjoyed my time at Aksaray. " (*Curated Review*)

" Been a regular at Aksaray for years, but I feel like it has taken a turn for the worse lately. The service has become overly casual, and my last meal was lacking the pizzazz I once enjoyed. The garlic yogurt that accompanied my kebabs was watered down. I do hope they return to their original standards because I love the food here! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely delicious food and a welcoming environment! The lamb kebab was perfectly cooked and flavorful, and the lentil soup was one of the best I’ve tasted. The ambiance of Aksaray makes it a great spot to come back to with friends or family. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for authentic Turkish cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Aksaray while looking for a good late-night meal, and it did not disappoint! The kebabs were incredibly juicy and full of flavor. The fresh bread served with it was a delightful bonus. I’ll definitely be returning, especially because they’re open 24/7. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff was friendly enough during my visit. Highly recommend the lamb kebab! " (*Curated Review*)
