Fresh, Tastey Food and unique Live Music – As we listened to a local singer/songwriter the owner came over to our table to check on us. Both the gyro meat and veggies we extremely fresh and flavorful. At the end of the night he offered all remaining diners a complimentary glass of wine!

Slow and Poor – Not authentic at all. Poor and sluggish service, food is not high quality, overpriced for what you get, bread was stale and scarse, water did not get refilled, dessert was burned and looked old. The Chicken was dry and overcooked, the salad was wilted and soggy as it had been left overs from the day before. So called pizza was non edible, not cooked, doughy and no feta cheese like stated, it was replaced with tasteless mozzarella. Not a good location, atmosphere is depressing. Mom and pop restaurant ran by pe... read more

Best Turkish/Mediterranean Resturaunt in Houston – I really have no idea what Jack Jill is talking about. I having been eating at Turquoise frequently for a long time and it has definitely upgraded over the years. The pizza menu is relatively small compared to the Turkish items menu. In fact, there are so many Turkish dishes, that I never have to worry about getting the same dish over and over. Oh, also, the vegetable kebab is not $18.95. I talked to the owner (Jim) and he said it was a typo. The vegetable kebab is $7.99. Ov... read more

Disappointed – Not what I expected. The food was edible but not great. Too much pizza and other non-Turkish dishes, and wanted something like Iman Bayildi or Biber dolma. Prices....well, $18.95 for a veggie kebab is...pretty steep. Service was OK, nothing special. Overall made me wonder if I was at the same restaurant as the other reviews.

overrated – the reviews we read were great so we had high expectations. the owner was there and was friendly but the waiter that took care of us was not so attentive. we were given reheated bread with our hummis. it was hot on the outside and cold on the inside. the food was good but for the portions we received it was overpriced.

Best Turkish food in town – Great food and friendly service. The owner visits with all guests and makes you feel welcome - whether you're visiting for the first time or you're a regular. The mezes (appetizers - try the pastirma over hummus, or the sigara borek), the kebabs (try the Adana with yogurt and tomato sauce), and the desserts (baklava of course, but especially kunefe, served warm) are delicious, but the owner's mom's home-cooking style entree specials are hard to find anywhere else and are regulars' favorites. pair ... read more

Good find – I have to admit first that I've never tried Turkish food, so I really don't know what's considered authentic. The service was excellent. The waiters help guide my friend and I through the menu and answered any questions we had. After that, the service was a little slower. For example, we had to go up to ask for our check. The food and the Turkish tea were both very good. I would recommend the tea for those who like something stronger. I would definitely come back.
