We visited Pehlivan street food truck and was extremely delighted to have one of the best chicken shish platter with rice on the side. Chicken Doner was perfectly made & taste delicious and their HSP is one of the most delicious one I had in Melbourne. Highly recommended.

We absolutely loved this place! The Turkish kebabs and skewers were incredibly delicious perfectly cooked, juicy, and full of authentic flavor. Everything tasted fresh and well seasoned. The desserts were just as amazing: the künefe was crispy and cheesy with the perfect sweetness, and the kazandibi was rich, creamy, and unforgettable. Great food, generous portions, and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy real Turkish cuisine. We will definitely come back!

We ordered chicken plate for two. Chicken shish kebab. The plate for 2 was served hot and fresh. The chicken was juicy and tender. It was melting in your mouth. The piece of bread given with it was good as well. Soft and tasty. The sauce mixed with rice was good as well. Chicken shish was good in taste, but it was a bit dry in terms of the bun. It was a bit hard to chew on. Over all given it was cold weather. The food was served hot and fresh.

I recently visited Balli Baba and I have to say, the experience was absolutely amazing! The food was beyond delicious, everything from the Chicken Sheesh to the Dubai Cheesecake and Kunefe was prepared to perfection. Each dish was bursting with flavor and presented beautifully. We also tried their traditional tea, which was a delightful addition to the meal. The service was impeccable, with staff who were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. It’s clear that they really care about providing a top tier experience. Highly recommend this place and I will definitely be back!

A well-balanced and flavorful plate. The içli köfte is perfectly seasoned, the salad is fresh, and the Adana kebab wrap is rich in taste and cooked just right. The fries are crispy and go great with the side sauce. If you want to try real Turkish cuisine, especially authentic Adana kebab, this is a must.

Proper kebab spot! The meat is juicy, portions are big, and everything tastes fresh. The staff are legends too. Definitely one of the best kebabs in Melbourne.
