Yasin OSeptember 17, 2014All Kebab choices are prepared nicely and taste good.I wouldn't recommend the Döner,so do NOT order the ABA Combo,it includes Döner and costs twice as much. Ask for Turkish Tea afterwards, No alcohol

Julie Thurston Howell INovember 4, 2010The chicken shish kebab was so moist and delish. Hummus is the best in the city that I've found. Best rice also and fantastic service. Will def return, especially for the affordable prices

Dilan SahinSeptember 23, 2014It was so delicious but a bit pricey. If you want to try Turkish food, you gotta go there !
If you never had Manti at Aba, you have mo idea how a great meal tastes! Heavenly dish...
Aleks JDecember 13, 2011Sip delicious Turkish coffee over a baklava on a couch while watching the clueless queue across the street in Starbucks.
Iskender kabab is the best and the portion is huge so you'll definitely have leftovers.
ansje millerOctober 29, 2014Stop by the wine shop across the street since the restaurant doesn't serve alcohol. Corkage is free.
- Excellent lentil soup and they give you lots of yummy bread.
