Miniya Turk - Kolad

Absolutely amazing dining experience...the food was super delicious and the ambience was great too.. looking forward to visit again

Went for a late dinner (kitchen open till 12.30 am) to Miniya Turk in Andheri West. We were the only people dining at the restaurant when we went but the staff were really accommodating and helpful. We were given a complimentary portion of herbed bread to begin with which was really soft and tasted amazing with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing. We ordered a med sampler, lamb kibbeh, chicken schnitzel and a customised dish with pilaf, minced lamb and lamb sheekh kebabs. The food was generally very good all the dips of the med sampler were fresh my favourite was the muhamarra. Quality of meat and bread was excellent. The pilaf lamb dish was mouthwatering. My only complaint would be that the lamb kibbehs were a little hard. For dessert, we called for tiramisu and baklava. The baklava was literally stuffed with pistachios tasted really yum! Would definitely recommend Miniya Turk for the food and ambience.

A one of it's kind restaurant, Miniya Turk is one place to look out for.<br/ <br/ A venture of Chef Ishijyot Surri, Miniya Turk offers a mix of Turkish and Italian cuisines.<br/ <br/ A décor of beige and green welcomes you. There is also an open kitchen so you can have a look how the food is made.<br/ <br/ The staff dons a turkish cap and are are very well versed in the dishes.<br/ <br/ The way they have presented their menu is very unique wherein the items in green are Turkish dishes and the items in blue are Italian dishes.<br/ <br/ What we ordered..<br/ <br/ They served us a Herbed Bread along with oil and vinaigrette which is traditional to Italian culture. We loved it.<br/ <br/ Insalata Caprese :<br/ <br/ A classic Italian salad with fresh and soft buffalo mozzarella, basil and tomato with oregano on top and a garlic dressing. An amazing start to our meal.<br/ <br/ Spinach Feta Triangles :<br/ <br/ A Phyllo pastry stuffed with the best combination out there of spinach and fresh feta cheese and pine nuts. The outside was very crispy and the inside was very soft.<br/ <br/ HIGHLY RECOMMENDED <br/ <br/ Lamb Keftedes :<br/ <br/ A classic turkish dish, minced lamb mixed with spices and deep fried and is served with lettuce and tomato salad. The spices tasted good but I felt the crispness could be better. Its a really big kofta ball so its filling on the stomach.<br/ <br/ Kuru :<br/ <br/ Kuru is basically a big potato that has its stuffing removed and is stuffed with our choice of stuffing. We got the four cheese along with olives and jalapenos. Its really yumm but as its a big potato, one is more than enough.<br/ <br/ Veg Buryan :<br/ <br/ For the main course, we opted for Veg Buryan which is a turkish version of the Biryani but very very different. This had flavorful rice along veggies cooked in spicy gravy. On the side they serve salad. Its too delicious to miss it. The gravy and the veggies are cooked very well and they are a burst of flavor in the mouth.<br/ <br/ HIGHLY RECOMMENDED <br/ <br/ For the dessert we opted for the cassic Turkish dessert of Baklava. Crisp on the outside with a stuffing of pistachios and sugar syrup, it was freshly made and tasted really yumm.<br/ <br/ We ended our meal with Turkish Coffee as it was just as fresh and the perfect end to our meal.<br/ <br/ The service can be a bit slow owing to the crowd as the place is always full.<br/ <br/ Food here is to die for. Each and every dish that we tried is unique in their own way. Special thanks to Mr. Vivek and his team for making our meal a delightful one.

First off, absolutely amazing and authentic ambience . Fell absolutely in love with it. The service and presentation was absolutely spot on too . The menu is huge! So it'll probably take you atleast 3 4 visits to try out the menu and get a feel of everything. I tried a bit of both, the Turkish and Italian menu, so I'll just rate the dishes: <br/ <br/ Complimentary table bread 5/5<br/ Cold Coffee 5/5<br/ Watermelon Basil Cooler 5/5<br/ Gnocchi ala Genovese 4/5<br/ Hummus 3/5 (hummus was great, but the pita alongwith it was very thin and hard and chewy <br/ Sebzeli Pide 6/5 (yeah it was that good <br/ Chicken Involtini 5/5<br/ Chocolate Raspberry Torte 0/5 (description said cake, but it was actually a tart, which was undercooked. The raspberry coulis was too tart to be edible. Left the whole thing uneaten. <br/ Complimentary Dates and Turkish Coffee 5/5<br/ <br/ Would definitely visit again

The med sampler is the perfect appetizer to begin with. Had higher expectations from the chicken Adana kebab in terms of taste but really liked the presentation. Also tried a dish which was out of the menu, the lamb Adana kebab with rice, fattoush and minced meat which was a little dry but the meat was succulent and delicious. Though the best of them all was the pollo fiesta considering an Italian Pizza at a Turkish restaurant.Since the panic about the corona virus, the restaurant took all possible measures to ensure the basic hygeine, like sanitizing the customers at the entrance, the chefs and the kitchen staff wearing masks, and waiters with the gloves on. Great work
