Great food always. One has to be patient while planning for food here. Starts with finding a parking place. Dine-in is in 1st floor. At ground level, one can see different kinds of salads, and arabic bread being made ready to eat. There is sizable crowd always in the ground floor, waiting for take away food. Second issue is finding... More

Go there for the exceptional food and forget the rest. Bread piping hot from the oven is lovely, cold mezzeh are very good, kofta are really wonderful as well as mixed grill. It remind me Antalya's restaurants where all Turkish people go. Don't miss while in Doha

Great food, great service, great prices, amazing clean up of the tables. You have to see it. We go with friends and by ourselves often, and it is just blocks away from home.

I love the juicy grilled chicken breast platter and freshly-baked Turkish bread from Turkey Central in Doha so much that over time I have learned to place my take-out order in Turkish which almost always gets me a complimentary hot Kibbeh (fried meat-filled ball) on a fork while I wait for my order! If I can’t park in front the... More

After spending over $100 USD at a hotel restaurant, I was happy to get out and try something else. Turkey Central was known by most of my colleagues as a great place to get take out, but few had actually been to the restaurant itself. It is in a two story building where the bottom floor is all focused on... More

Dont expect fancy ambiance or parking when you go to TC. This is a place for a weekday, when youre tired and its nine pm and you want to eat casually. Give yourself 30 minutes from the time you order to the time you see your food. And learn from me, you come out smelling like onions and garlic so... More

Friends of mine were raving about the place but I found it to be really average food in a bland but crowded environment with really poor slow service. Two tips: 1) Get the fruit smoothies. They are truly excellent and from fresh fruit you can see downstairs as you walk in; and 2) If they ask you to buy honey... More
