Reviews for Aya Sofia Restaurant in St. Louis, MO
A true gem of St. Louis. This place is an experience! I was introducing Turkish cuisine to my friend and this restaurant made... me feel proud. We got lahmacun (it’s quite big like a pizza) very rich in flavor, shish lamb kebab (see picture) I mean itspeaks for itself. The grilled vegetables were great as a side. We also ordered a skewer of Adana, it was an experimentalversion of the authentic Adana kebab and it was indeed very good. That was my friend’s favorite. Also, baklava was PERFECT.The chef of this restaurant is an expert in seafood, you’ll see the news stories in the entrance. Definitely try thoseoptions. Have it with some Rak?. Other than that, great ambiance, nice concept, great lounge type music, well trained andprofessional staff, welcoming host. The place has a very nice high-end vibe. We will definitely come back, with more people!Serefe! Read more
It’s a gem for Turkish cuisine in St. Louis. Loved the outdoor seating arrangement, fine wine and Turkish cuisine. Definitely... recommend to couples, family and friends looking to spend quality evening with great tasting food and ambience. Read more
Tbh, I didn’t like Iskender and Musakka. Musakka wasn’t warm enough. But Hunkar Begendi was okey. You can dip it with pide... bread and you can have it. Staff was nice Read more
Went here for the first time for my partner’s birthday and it was SO good. Service was a bit slow as there was seemingly only... one person on for the whole restaurant, but we were in no rush. We got the Börek to start (yummm), and some wine and beer. Formy main (pictured) I had the Manti. We got some pita with dinner which was perfect with this dish. It also made fantasticleftovers. My partner got the Adana Kebap and it was also fantastic. I don’t think you could go wrong if you pointed to arandom item on the menu and ordered it blindly. Read more
One of the best Mid East restaurants in St Louis. Food was delicious & decor is good too. Nice place for family & dates
The Baklava was warm and succulent. Made with just the right amount of sweetness. The Sarma was ok. The meat could have had more... seasoning. Everything was well packaged. Read more
One of the best tasting Turkish food in St.Louis. All the dishes are authentic with amazing flavor.
Without a doubt by far the worst restaurant I have ever been to, I ordered the mix kabob and I literally had to return the beef... kabob 3x because it was extremely raw to where it was still bloody. On top of that, one of the waiter would literally come byevery 30 seconds and ask me if I wanted more coke, im like no dude you're fine, not joking it was every 30 seconds because Istarted to time him, I thought the guy was messing with me or something. N the cherry on top of the whole thing, theyautomatically charge 20% tip, I went at 6pm on a Thursday and it was completely dead. The tip should be left up to the customer,terrible food, terrible service and yet they still charged for the tip. I would recommend McDonald's before I ever do this placeto anyone of my friends. I don't know the cook was but the owner needs to fire him Read more
