The portion size is awful, thankfully we're only rating the taste. This waffle is called a black triangle waffle, and the photo on the QR code menu was small. However, even the large waffles from our university years have shrunk in portion size. I hope the taste doesn't deteriorate. I think there was a Turkish flag on it because it's October 29th. It was a nice presentation. You feel happy while eating the waffle. It's not doughy, nor is it crispy. It appealed to both the eye and the palate. I liked this one the most in Kocaeli. People would come from Izmit to Değirmendere just to eat this.
The unique thing about this place is the constant cycle of grilling, so charcoal is available at all hours of the day. You can enjoy your preferred skewer in a casual and friendly atmosphere without waiting for hours. The amount of meat in the lamb skewer was good, and it was nicely spread inside the wrap. Although the wrap bread looked thick, it was soft and managed to become a cohesive whole by absorbing the sauce. I think if the amount of spices were reduced and the meat flavor were brought out a little more, it would be an even more successful wrap.
Our eyes and our stomachs were satisfied. It was neither too thin nor too thick a lahmacun. If you make it a horizontal wrap, you can fit the salads inside :d Increase the amount of onion and lemon that comes with it so we can make a fuller lahmacun wrap. Still, it was good and not too greasy.
A piping hot soup that warms you from the first sip. Don't eat it without blowing on it first. The place is crowded because the soup is good. A well-balanced soup.
In my opinion, this was by far one of the best items on the shop; the thickly sliced onion rings, despite being crispy in the breading, were beautifully cooked. The breading had a slightly sweet taste, which almost made the onion rings resemble Turkish lokma (a type of Turkish dessert). I liked it.
A quick and practical meal. Finally, we met our protein needs cheaply. Quite filling. Apparently, they use Baldo rice and have an athlete's menu. Sprinkle some black pepper on top, and with a glass of ayran (yogurt drink), it just melts in your mouth. We will advocate for clean food. I'm increasing the score by 0.2 points; I was actually going to give it 7.88, but I rounded it. Dear Bitecritic officials, please do something so that Ankara bowls also become this pricey.
The standard burger consists of a bun, patty, and cheddar cheese, but you're expected to add about 10 different toppings to your burger. Or maybe it's some kind of puzzle, I couldn't quite figure it out. Instead, I think it would have been better to highlight a few of their signature products. Since they're focusing on the standard burger, I opted for the standard one. The burger patty is 80g, but you can't really taste the flavor that way; you can add more, but then the already exorbitant price increases even more. The bun is soft and has a nice texture, but it doesn't offer a unique flavor. I don't feel the need to go back.
It had been a long time since I'd eaten a heartburn-inducing pastry. It was a tasteless, greasy cheese pastry. It should be served warmer. I didn't finish it.
First of all, when ordering, you choose the ingredients to put inside, just like you're filling a waffle. For example, I chose 5 things, my friend chose 10, and he got a kumpir (baked potato dish) twice as big. I think the quantities of the ingredients I choose should be increased. If we're paying the same price, we should get the same amount. I asked the owner at the cashier, and he said the potatoes aren't imported. I got this information to write this. So, the potatoes are burning hot, the cheese is well melted, the butter, etc. are okay. The sausages could perhaps have been tastier. It's not filling, it's full of carbohydrates.
This wrap always gets a score above 7. Unlike other wraps, it's not drenched in sauce; at least you can trust that there's chicken in it, since it's a chicken skewer. The sauce has a nice, not-too-burning spiciness. The fries are a bit bland, in my opinion. I want to taste the chicken from the first bite.
Calamata and carbonara are our favorites. Especially if you go there on Mondays and Tuesdays when selected wines are half price. My favorite place for wine and pizza.
There are 6-8 different kinds of tiramisu at the stand. You choose one and they pour it into a glass or cup. I chose the lotus and forest fruit flavors. I also poured KitKat over it. The cake was soft and not too sweet at all, nothing that would bother you. We drove to this branch because they had run out of all their desserts at the Izmit branch, and it was worth trying; I would go again.
What is BiteCritic?
BiteCritic is a food review platform that rates individual dishes rather than restaurants. Every review is about one specific dish at one specific place, so you can find the best version of whatever you are craving instead of guessing from a venue's overall score.
How are dishes rated?
Each review gives one dish a single score out of 10, based on taste rather than atmosphere or service. Reviewers can add photos, the price they paid and the date of their visit. The score on a dish or place page is the average of its reviews.
Who writes the reviews?
Reviews are written by members of the community, and every review links to its author's public profile. You can follow the critics whose taste matches yours and see their latest reviews in your own feed.
