"Had my first LAMB CHOP at Chima's Tysons. Now that TurCuisine comes in handy, I don't need to drive that far. Need to live more just for that LAMB CHOP! Ughh..... Had it for "lunch" and "dinner" today! LG, can't complain. THE BEST!
Love the ambiance, the overall restaurant's design, the RED and contemporary look, as well as the service I had! Been around the area for quite sometime but the name outside didn't catch my attention since the neighboring names are the same red colors.
But the food....MAGNIFICO!!!"

"We really enjoy TurCuisine. The ambiance is very pleasant, the service competent and friendly, and food delicious. We have identified several items on the menu that we particularly like although everything we have tried is very good. We really like the hummus, the cheese plate (with three different kinds of cheeses), the yogurtlu kebab -- prepared with different meats -- we usually get the doner and the beef shish. We always have one of the Turkish red wines, again very good. This is a gem, and we highly recommend it to others."

"Joined TurCuisine for their featured Easter Brunch. This is a small neighborhood Turkish cuisine restaurant, that we have enjoyed for their house made DonnerKabob and Turkish specialities. The brunch I was hoping would have some special items just for the Easter table. HOwever it had just 10 or 11 of the popular & usual items from the menu served buffet style, so we were disappointed, nothing new or unique for the Holiday. All nicely prepared and tended by more than efficient and friendly servers."

"The only negative of the whole experience was that I made a reservation at 1pm on Sunday for a 7pm dinner on the same day. When we walked into the restaurant at 7pm they didn't have our reservation. About 5 minutes later the waitress said that the reservation just came in. I don't know if this was an Open Table problem or the restaurant didn't pay close enough attention to their reservations. Fortunately they were not too busy and a table was available. Otherwise we enjoyed the dinner. The waitress was pretty attentive and gave excellent recommendations."

"Our first time to TurCuisine, its gotten pretty decent reviews on OpenTable, and my wife and I love Mediterranean food. Compared to other local Med. restaurants, I'd place this one up near Lebanese Taverna, food taste and quality wise, not as high as Zaytinya, but hopefully you get the idea. It's a very small place, in a strip mall (Worldgate) in Herndon. Quiet, comfortable, and the food is good. Worth a try if you like Turkish/Med. food."

"I stumbled upon this diamond in the rough with my boss in 2012 and we fell in love with the place. Authentic Turkish cuisine, great wine, quiet and relaxing atmosphere, and the coffee selection is more than I could ask for, an experience in itself. My fiancé and I go here for special occasions and recently celebrated Valentines Day, which we never really do. It's a little tight, so be aware that the couple two tables down from you will be able to hear everything you say if your voice is a little too loud. Simple and modern, this is a great Turkish spot to wine and dine at with colleagues as well as intimates. Another plus, the staff is fabulous and beautiful."

"The food here is great, we came for Valentine's Day, they had a nice special menu, unfortunately the main course was not Turkish, just steak and salmon! The appetizers were middle eastern, and I had some nice Turkish coffee for desert, so I am still leaving a good review, but please, for the next holiday, remember customers come there for the food that is different!"
