We loved the complimentary appetizer set. It was the perfect way to sample the different flavors and decide on our favorites. We ordered the mixed grill for two, and the portions were very generous. The meats were incredibly fresh, especially the lamb chop which was tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. We also tried the mixed dessert platter along with Turkish tea to finish off the meal. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. A fantastic experience all around!

Incredible traditional Turkish restaurant. Compliments to our friend and server Gio who take his time to explain their traditional food and giving us great suggestion for food. Turkish coffee was a great experience reminding and bringing us memories of our culture when we had to drink just this coffee with our parents and friends. Dolama Katmer, a pastry with crushed Pistachio pie was the piece of resistance who pushed us to landmark this restaurant in our hearts. As well the owner was very kind to come to our table to make sure we had everything we need. The chef and her beautiful oven lit us our excellent experience with amazing surrounding design of restaurant, tables and chairs. Gio with his passion and knowledge made us a real Turkish food lovers. In our culture its an expression saying " People are blessing the place and food " which came so strong in our thoughts today. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU !

Absolutely loved this place! Super clean, with top-notch service that made us feel so welcome. The Turkish food was incredible—especially the beef tenderloin plate , the grilled chicken in the mixed grill plate and the cheese pide. The appetizer bread was unbelievably good, and we finished with the katmer, which was heavenly. Highly recommend go try it, you’ll fall in love like we did!

The food tastes very very good. My favourite Turkish restaurant in KW. I like chicken shish, chicken Adana and lamb chops most. I’ve been here for 78 times. The service is also good, they introduce everything in detail with patience. BTW They have complimentary tea and dessert sometimes! The dessert tastes not so sweet, very good!

We visited our friend Mustafa, one of the new owners of the wonderful and warm Nev Turkish Cuisine in Waterloo. Food was great, we shared and tried a number of recommended dishes with Turkish coffee and sweets for dessert. Highly recommended for families or anyone looking for great food and even better company!

I came here to celebrate my 30th birthday and was not disappointed! It was a lovely atmosphere and we had an especially kind server who made sure we had everything that we needed. She helped us pick out what we wanted from the menu and the food was at the table very fast! We tried a variety of dishes and everything was incredible. We especially loved the complementary items that were given - it felt like visiting a friend. Thank you for a great evening! We’ll be back
