Nice review of a Turkish place – lots of pictures, too 
I haven’t been here yet, I will soon thanks to this. I am always up for some Turkish food 
Indeed, I’ll definitely be checking that out.
They got this dude working there?
I like Safranbolu quite a bit. They have not-particularly-appealing specials at lunch (11:30am to 1pm?: but just slightly cheaper versions of their more basic mains). They’ve got set meals any time, which I do recommend: I believe it’s add 300 for soup, drink (ayran!), appetizer, and dessert. Well worth it. I’ve found it’s a place where if I try to keep the bill low, I don’t particularly enjoy it, but if I splurge it’s a great meal.
Plus it’s a nice-looking restaurant inside. Nothing spectacular, but it does make you wonder why so many Taipei eateries are … less nice.

Oh, I’ve been to this place before. The food was alright, but service was slow and they didn’t have two of the items on the menu I wanted to order at the time. They did comp us a couple of desserts though, so they’re willing to address problems as best they can.
If I’m being completely honest, we ate there over a year ago and haven’t been back but it was worth a try. I can’t speak to how authentic the food was but it was pretty good.
Has anyone been to 伊茲密爾土耳其廚房Izmir Turk Kitchen?

Anybody been to Safranbolu recently? I want to try this place for lunch soon and I’m wondering if their food is still good.
I’d call it passable. Maybe I’m upset because the Turkish place I liked shut down.

I finally had some food here. It was good. I got the chicken kebab meal. My friend go the turkish pizza (forget the name). All good. A bit pricey for lunch, but I’m glad I tried it. I would like to explore their menu a bit, like their doner kebab sandwiches. You can get orders easily to go on the 1st floor, or go upstairs where the seats are.
I will be going back.

Lahmajun.
Lahmacun is minced meat with no sauce thin pizza. Pide is thicker because it has eggs.

No. 34 on the menu is lahmacun, I guess it is just thinner and more crusty bread.
