Desserts to Try

Sutlac Rice Pudding

$7.00

A Turkish-style rice pudding, a dessert made with tender rice.

“We had an exceptional meal on 2/3. The cuisine used all fresh ingredients and was full of flavor. We tried the specialty dinner Iskender Kebab, lentil soup called Mercimek Chorba and an order of mini falafel. Everything was delicious. We finished off our meal with Turkish coffee that is now a new favorite of ours and some rice pudding and tiramisu. Would highly recommend if you are in Pittsburgh. Our server was very attentive and kind. We were traveling with our 2 year old and she was in love with the fresh Turkish bread.”

Turkish Delight

$6.00

A chewy, sweet Turkish confection cut into bite-sized pieces.

“We went here for a birthday dinner with friends. Everyone had a great meal. The hummus and grape leaves were delicious to start. The pomegranate green tea and sparkling tea were also great. I sampled several kebabs and all were delicious. The Turkish delight and Turkish coffee for dessert were also delicious. I would highly recommend.”
