Authentic Turkish Cuisine I ordered a salad platter that already came with sesame bread, and a kebab platter for 2 pax. Everything tasted amazing. oh ya ini cukup banget buat 3-4 ppl ya From the salad platter, the hummus and baba ghanoush are highly recommended From the kebab platter, honestly all the items were perfect—no complaints at all. Oh ya! a bit surprised jg teryta Turkish rice is similar to nasi uduk. The dessert was also yummy. Overall, it was a unique and enjoyable experience for me.

First time visiting Sofra. Honestly everything was spot on. The food was excellent. The flavors were rich, well balanced, and felt very authentic. The kebab was juicy, the bulgur rice was perfectly cooked and well seasoned, and the sides complemented everything really well. The tea and dessert were also a great way to end the meal. The service truly stood out. Everyone who served us was genuinely warm and attentive, and even the chef came out to greet us, which made the experience feel extra welcoming and personal. The ambience was cozy yet polished, perfect for a relaxed dinner or a casual catch up. Zero complaints at all. I will definitely come back and would happily recommend this place to others. Solid first impression.

The ambience is very good, the food alone very much aunthentic Turkish Food, but i wanna highlight the service here, the service is very2 spectacular, we meet the chef himself and he gives us a Turkish Tea As Complimentary, if you looking for a legit Turkish Food you should come here, very Recommended. I ordered The Humus with Spiced Lamb and the Lambs if cooked perfectly, the Dessert that i choose is Classic Pistachio, not too sweet but just perfect to end your meal. Hope this help you guys

Visited Sofra for dinner with a friend, and the ambience was calm and nice, loved it! We ordered the Turkish salad, Adana chicken, Lamahcun, Kunefe, Firin Sutlac, and iced tea. 1. Turkish Salad (4⭐) A classic Turkish-style salad with chopped cucumber, tomatoes, lettuce, and black olives. Light and refreshing in taste. 2. Adana Chicken (4⭐) A rice dish served with chicken kebab. The rice was excellent! Unfortunately, for me, the chicken aroma lingered a bit in the mouth :(( (maybe just a matter of preference) 3. Lamahcun (3.5⭐) A flatbread pizza topped with lamb. Similar to the Adana, the lamb smell was quite strong. I’m really sorry, but Lamahcun didn’t quite suit my Indonesian palate. If it didn’t have that strong lamb scent, I think I could’ve finished it. 4. Kunefe (5⭐) For dessert, we chose Kunefe, and it was definitely the right choice… The sweetness was just perfect—not too much. I just wish the portion wasn’t so tiny, lol. 5. Firin Sutlac (5⭐) A kind of rice pudding topped with caramelized sugar and cinnamon powder. It tastes even better when served cold. I’ll definitely come back because I’m curious to try the other dishes… especially the desserts—none of them failed!

I have been living in Indonesia for so many years, and this is the first time I taste a delicious Turkish food like back in Türkiye. The chef is perfect, he is from Türkiye also. You can simply say that oh this is made by a Turkish chef. The atmosphere is amazing. Everyone in the restaurant is so polite, and they try to speak Turkish also. That’s so nice. if I leave in Jakarta , I would be coming most of the time. But unlucky I live out of Jakarta. This is the best Turkish restaurant I have ever been in Indonesia. Highly recommended.

Visited SOFRA Turkish Cafe & Restaurant two days ago for iftar (buka puasa) with my husband, we ordered the kebab platter for 2 pax, but honestly, I think it could easily feed 3 people because the portion was very generous! Everything was well-seasoned and full of flavor. We also ordered hummus and baklava, the hummus was creamy and fresh, and the baklava was perfectly sweet to end the meal. The service was very friendly and welcoming, however, the only downside was the waiting time. We had to wait more than 30 minutes for the main course to arrive. The food was definitely worth it, but a faster serving time would make the experience even better, especially during buka puasa when everyone is hungry.

Good value for money at this Turkish restaurant and I can warmly recommend both the Lahmacun and the Pide for their authentic taste. This is not fine dining of course, and the restaurant also not aspires to be, but for a relaxed and reasonably authentic Mediterranean meal, I find Sofra more than satisfactory. Make sure not to skip the excellent baklava to end your meal.
