After attending early movie session we wanted a healthy delicious snack to eat before going home. Arrived at Turkish Adana restaurant/café at 8pm according to signage it trades till 10.30pm on Thursday. Only one other couple in the restaurant, décor is pleasant, kitchen is in view of diners. We ordered a share platter for 2 comprising 2 zucchini balls (KABAK) 2 falafel, 2 rice stuffed vine leaves and 2 Feta pastry rolls as well as 4 dips of our choice and Turkish bread. When you order a drink (soft ) the bottle is placed on the table and no offer of a glass to drink from. I asked if ginger Beer was amongst the range of soft drinks the owner thought I wanted alcohol. hmm! You are not given a...
Hoping for a great Turkish experience? Don’t bother.Sadly, because this place is local I hoped for a lot better than we got! The Falafel was the biggest downfall. I love Falafel. This was LITERALLY deep fried crumbs. Which meant impossible to bite into and even when you did finally break off a chunk of this ball of concrete, it is so dry it is unpalatable. For $12.. jesus. My Partner had the Kabak (zucchini balls) and said they were of ‘cupcake’ density…. which grosses me out. She didn’t eat them in the end.The dips were nice and my Lamb Pirzola was good. I wouldn’t tell people to avoid this place, because there did nail some dishes – this is more of a heads up to the chefs that they really...
My partner and I are regular customers at this restaurant. The food is delicious, especially the carrot dip, but we are becoming frustrated with the constant mistakes in our orders. The first time they forgot one of our main dishes, and since then, our orders have been incorrect multiple times. We usually order 'snack packs', but they have been delivered as kebabs instead. Additionally, the sauces on the snacks are often wrong, with mine sometimes being smothered in garlic sauce despite only ordering BBQ. I have even had to drive to a store to buy the correct sauce. It is a shame because the food is great and the location is convenient, but the continuous mistakes in our orders are incredibl...
This was a mixed experience - we were greeted quite warmly, and told to sit anywhere in a mostly empty indoor/outdoor setting. Our order was taken in good time but the wheels came off about then. We had ordered the small mezzo platter, and at the half hour mark, the waitress came out to say they were out of hummus.Now, for a Turkish restaurant... running out of hummus seems more than a bit odd. However, 10 minutes later, the platter arrived, but a forty minute wait in an almost empty restaurant?Our pide arrived shortly after, and was excellent - of not ENORMOUS! but a takeaway box was offered.I'm not sure what caused the delays, but hopefully that's not a chronic issue.

Visiting sons in Canberra and wanted some good food to take away.Read reviews and ordered over the phone. $70 which ended up being great value as we were unable to finish all the food.The restaurant was reasonable busy with only tables outside, yes in a Canberra winter and all and there were a few positive comments from patrons as they paid. Owner appears happy to share a joke with his patrons.So a great idea, quality food that reminds me of Istanbul.
We ordered a few mix banquets and were beyond delighted with both the food and the lovely service.Generous portions, of beautifully made food, all incredibly fresh and so very tasty.Was the perfect choice for a informal work lunch that we could pick up and bring back to the office.The service was so lovely, very attentive, friendly and the food was prepared very quickly. Couldn't recommend this place more!!
Walking past Adana I noticed a sign out the front for a kebab wrap, drink and chips for $13. I decided on the Lamb, all salads , tabouli , with hummus and chilli sauce. The kebab wrap was as thick as my forearm! By the time I had gotten through it I was full no room for the lovely looking cooked chips. I think I'll have to try a pide next time...
I used to love going here for dinner....not anymore...from the moment that my favourite meal is only half the size from what is used to be, I am out! The menu has changed, in particular the prices of the dishes. The lamb burger is missing on the menu

Wow, this Turkish restaurant in Canberra is truly the best of the best. I love this place and would highly recommend it to anyone in search of delicious Turkish food. They are open 7 days a week from 10 am to 10 pm.
It's simple - this is authentic a you can get Turkish food. It's prepared in house and cooked while you wait. Reasonably priced and very quick service
