Aya Sofia - Mar del plata

Not good food. I’ve never had anything so dry in my life.

I ended up getting the Köfte sandwich to go, the bag smelled lovely when I picked it up. And I couldn’t wait to get home and eat it. Sure enough, it was delightful. The seasoning on the meatballs was perfect, the rice pilaf was moist and full of flavor. Despite not going inside for this experience- I would still come back so I could. This place’s atmosphere is warm, and cozy. Private and traditional. Really good if you like Balkan-Mediterranean food!

Spectacular food and great ambiance! Hard to find wine, beer and spirits as well.

Best Turkish experience in St. Louis. Brings me back to Istanbul every time. Food consistently high quality. Service excellent. Try the kofte, chicken tuvasz or the lentil soup. But you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

Tbh, I didn’t like Iskender and Musakka. Musakka wasn’t warm enough. But Hunkar Begendi was okey. You can dip it with pide bread and you can have it. Staff was nice
