Best WLM Reviews

Came here for dinner on a weekday around 7:30pm and there were plenty of open tables. The menu was very extensive with a lot of Turkish and Mediterranean food options. Also, the portions were huge! You could share one main with two salads and be good. Overall great vibe, food, and the staff were very nice and professional.
Excellent overall but would not recommend the lamb shank special on Saturdays. Nice presentation but swims in watery brother that dilutes all flavor. Lamb tastes steamed but tender. Veggies are quite bland like boiled with minimal taste. A bit challenging to cut good meat off bone and tendons. A side of rice helps absorb the water but still like a broth soup. It’s not wrapped with eggplant but has one spongy piece on top with tomato. Appetizer of calamari was excellent, fresh and flavorful. Dessert also was good highlight. Service very good.
I liked everything that I have tried at this restaurant.
Nice vibe and well-decorated.
Definitely worth of try. Bread and dipping sauce is complementary as well.
We didn’t made reservations, but still were seated fast considering 7 people.
Food is amazing. Service was top ????
Located at the Easton Towne Center, between other restaurants on a strip. Plenty of parking across the street. Parking on side streets but are limited. Looking from the outside, you wouldn't think anything super special, just a nice and simple restaurant. First time at this delightful establishment. My brother and I thought to give it a try. OMG! Once you walk inside, it is beautifully set up. Not too fancy but not at all blah either. Very clean! I was impressed! Tablecloth covered tables. Chandeliers above. Wonderfully decorated but not over the top. Good for family dinners, business lunches and dinners, small to Large but not huge parties. Delightful for wedding receptions, engagement or retirement parties, and more! Older children friendly. I would not recommend toddlers and infants. However, they are welcomed. Perfect for one person, couple of friends, or for a romantic date night. Full service bar with an awesome bartender that knows how to prepare a cocktail! Very friendly staff! Our server, Ismail, was exceptional, pleasant, attentive, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and just simply AWESOME! I wish all servers were that way lol. Even "Karens" wouldnt find anything to complain about lol ???? The menu offers many Mediterranean dishes. Turkish cuisine from Istanbul. Fantabulously scrumpdeliliciously phenomenal yumminess served here! The food ordered, the presentation was beautiful. The grilled lamb chops (my favorite) were melt in your mouth delicious. Fresh lamb cooked to order. The okra and lamb stew... OMG goodness! The large sampler platter (vegetarian) was to die for! I wanted to order one of each off the menu! I'm not a dessert person but had to try their custard. Delicious! Ordered Turkish coffee and tea, couldn't decide so ordered both. I would order both again! The next visit (soon!), I will have to try the whole fried fish, Branzino. Would I recommend this establishment to others? Absofreakinlutely! You will not be disappointed. Bon appetite and Godspeed everyone!
It was my first time here and was excited to try everything. There's plenty of parking around the plaza. Seating is plenty, but felt a bit cramped. The restaurant is beautiful, so warm and welcoming.
We got the Moussaka and Sauteed Lamb. The dipping sauce and bread was phenomenal, it was delicious and a good starter to the meal, and you can taste the saffron and herbs.
The Moussaka was made well and delicious. It was a pretty big cut and was very good.
The Sauteed Lamb was made very well and flavorful. The lamb was tender and the peppers were soft and crunchy.
Overall, the meal was great and filling. It came with rice and with the bread, it was overall enough for two people. I felt like the flavors were balanced and flavorful, delicious and tasty.
Staff was very kind and accommodating. Staff checked on us multiple times and provided us with great service. They let us know that every meal could be made vegetarian and that's really nice for dietary needs.
I would recommend this place for a great authentic meal, great service, and delicious food.
Absolutely a fantastic experience. We had limited time for dinner before a flight. We were served with the highest attention and care, the food tasted exceptional, portion sizes are quite big. As a family, we tried a little bit of everyone’s food. The gyro meat was amazing and almost melted in your mouth. The Mousakka was layered with all the veggies, meat and potatoes you’d wish for. Dessert was the perfect size to share and not overeat. All around a great dinner. We would be coming back for sure.
A very elegant and authentic restaurant. The food is delicious, and the service is very fast. Everything from the soup to the main course and tea was excellent. I definitely recommend it.
