Outstanding food. I have a fairly extreme aversion to undercooked meat. The kitchen staff and server were happy to fulfil the request of overcooking the chicken. The best meal I’ve had in a good while.
Took my sister out for her birthday. The mezzs are amazing. We had the red pepper purée and haloumi, they were the best I’ve had. The Greek salad with chicken was delicious and you will have leftovers. I will be going back
Lovely Mediterranean restaurant with exceptionally beautiful tablecloths and a nice ambiance. We ordered the beet salad (beets, walnuts, goat cheese, maple vinaigrette) and the mixed meze plate which included hummus, dolma, mutabbel, falafel, and eggplant saute. For dessert we had the baklava and liked it so much we also got an order to go. The baklava at the table was served with a delicious raspberry sauce. Everything was very tasty and plated in an attractive way. Our server was very attentive and helpful. The view from the restaurant is the only detraction since it looks out onto a parking lot (nice trees, otherwise unexceptional) but they do their best to make the inside beautiful and cozy. We will definitely go back.
It was our first time eating at this restaurant and both my husband and I adore Turkish food. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and somehow that feels like a bit of an understatement. There was so much care put into all the plates and you could taste all the love. Can't wait to go back and enjoy another meal the next time we're in Nova Scotia.
We met friends here for dinner. They've been fans for a while and we are SO impressed with everything about this spot. A nice-sized menu with great choices but not so big as to be overwhelming. The lamb moussaka was perfect. (A veggie version is available) A side salad was included - crisp, fresh and delicious. Hubby had the special - lamb shanks - so tender. The server was pleasant, prompt and efficient. I love the accents in the room, and the tablecloths were really pretty, woven fabric in a variety of designs. Can't wait to go back.
I Love Turkish / Mediterranean food so I was very pleased to learn about this place recently. It’s been here for 7 years or so, (I was told) and I feel like it’s kind of hidden from sight on the opposite side of Finbar’s. (Probably why I didn’t notice it.)Their food is delicious and they have a lunch menu so it’s my new go-to when I don’t bring a lunch to work. I highly recommend upgrading to the beet salad and if you see the lamb shank is on special, I’d suggest getting it.
We had the menu for two. It came with hot and cold mezza and a salad to start. Then rice with either chicken or beef. Dessert was also server with tea. Removes all the selections and the chef decides off his menu. Very nice atmosphere and Stephanie was very helpful and attentive.
Location is good, there are lots of free parking. Service is excellent. Layout and decorations, the restaurant is decent size, can fit group of ppl. Layout is good, decoration is unique and lovely. Cosy and romantic. Service is within expectations, good and the girls know the menu well. Food is very delicious, full and rich of food, we couldn't finish our plates. Prices is $$, however worth the money paid Conclusion: you should try it. It is excellent.
Wow! Amazing food and service. The prices are also very reasonable. Thank you for the experience!
Delicious food, would come back any day. Service was very friendly & quick, the Moussaka and cheese borak were amazing!
This place has excellent food. Ive got tons of food allergies, and Ive got extremely high standards for food. This place has food that taste home made. Its absolutely incredible. Authentically Turkish as well. I cannot recommend this place enough.
The place had a very unique atmosphere. Really did feel like I was placed in some Central Asian cuisine. A bit on the pricier end for a dish with not the quantity expected. But the food was very good. Parking: When you get to the location the parking is behind the building. You must pass through an under a overhang to find the parking and the restaurant
Oh Ustas...what a gem if a restaurant. The lamb is Northumberland...the best. Everything on the menu is delicious.
A bit out of the way, but envy the suburbanites who can visit regularly. Everything we had was excellent, and the place has a warm feel to it. And every table had a unique, beautifully patterned woven tablecloth. Are you kidding me? :-)
its was a great experience with food and the service there is the best with happy smile
Delicious and fresh Turkish food, great atmosphere and attentive service. 11/10
Good food good price good service good people good vibe
One of the better Mediterranean restaurants in the area. Large menu and everything we tried was pretty good. Definitely need to get the pita and spreads/dips.
Food was soooo good. Waitress was lovely. And service was very fast. Family friendly. Would give more stars if I could
The food is good, but quantity is small given the expensive price - I paid 5 dollars for a can of pop. Prices are a bit outrageous but the food is good.
Great little spot with great food
The garlic chicken is my favorite!!! But I dont think you could go wrong with anything off the menu.
First visit- food was amazing and server was friendly and attentive. We will absolutely return. A must try for those who are new to Turkish food or are lovers of this cuisine. afiyet Olsun!
This is one of our favorite spots in HRM. The food is consistently good, the service is friendly and we never walk away disappointed. Highly recommend the mixed mezze plate and the yogurt kebab! Kid-friendliness: We bring our daughter with us (age 7), and although there isnt a kids menu the staff and environment are kid friendly!
Vegetarian options: So many options.. Parking: Always lots of free parking Kid-friendliness: the fries are delicious!
Fabulous! The food, the staff, the atmosphere, everything amazing!!! Food
Great place for food, I could eat there every day
Not sure what happened to this place, but super disappointed with our visit this evening. For starters we enter the restaurant, no HI or anything we just got a stare from the ladies working there. The food quality and portion has gone down hill, the mixed chicken kebab I had was dry and had no flavour unless I added the sauces. The waitress we had was not friendly and same for the other girl with shorter brown hair.
Best Turkish food I have ever had. Unreal falafel and kebab, friendly, fast service. Highly recommended!
The food was outstanding - authentic, delicious, well portioned. The prices were reasonable - $30 each for an appetizer and main, which were absolutely top-quality. The restaurant was impeccably clean throughout and this service was courteous and professional. I highly recommend this restaurant for a reasonably priced fine dining experience. It is some of the best food I have ever had.
We had such a great lunch! A wonderful setting and the food was amazing.
The aesthetics of the restaurant are good Staff is good and welcoming Food is very good and the proportion is sufficient Food : 5/5
Taste is very good, I believe quantity is less.
One of our favorites. Eat here about 5 times a year. Always pleasant, fast service. Excellent menu and food.
Always my favorite food when I go to Dartmouth, and always order extra to take home! Excellent food!
First time visit and I would return and try more. We ordered the beet salad, delicious and some appetizers. Terrific server who was attentive, we saw people from the kitchen coming out to see if we enjoyed our food.
Possibly the best overall restaurant in the Cole Harbour area, the food is awesome!
The food was amazing, both the entrees and the appetizers. I also definitely reccomend the Turkish Coffee, its strong but good.
I love this place!
Tried here impulsively last night (a rainy Saturday in January about 7pm). If you dont know the area of Dartmouth, it could be easy to miss because its in the rear of a building that has Finbars in front, and not visible from Portland St. Anyway, there is free parking in the rear, so you can walk right in, without having to deal with that. The place is cosy, with tables for two and four running along a narrow section by the front window, then makes an L turn with another narrow section of tables around the corner. Seating maybe for 30-40 I would guess total? Simple but nice decor, a few Mediterranean touches. Very friendly and attentive service! Great prices. My friend and I werent hungry enough to get full meals, but he got an order of hummus (7.50 for a good sized serving), 1.50 for extra pita. I tried the Mixed Mezza plate ($14) that included your basic dips, a falafel, couple of grape leaf things that I can never remember the name. Lol Overall, all very tasty. Not a long wait at all. We definitely will be back.
We had their Kiymali, excellent, enough for 4
Just got take out from here. Friendly staff and amazing food. Great variety and very flavourful.
I am not a fussy person, but I am very hard to impress (my partner and I can cook...well!). I can honestly say that I havent gone to a restaurant recently and loved every part of my meal, until last night at Usta. I was literally shocked at how amazing both appetizers were (dolma and kiymali)! We both got the special (braised lamb shank) and had a dessert tester (baklava and kadayif). Absolutely everything was seasoned perfectly, beautifully presented. Excellent service, even the chef came out to talk to everyone and ask how their meal was. I was impressed how many vegan and vegetarian options there were and my own dietary restrictions were basically unnoticeable there (dairy and eggs). Very relaxed atmosphere but also you could feel like you are on a nice date too. I highly recommend this place, ill be back for dine-in and take-out! Dietary restrictions: Lots of options for vegan, vegetarian and accommodated my intolerances of dairy and eggs very easily! Parking: Large parking lot behind Finbars.
Our water, Aiden was awesome. Food was delicious. Very small crowd so it was great for us. They didnt rush us and always made us feel welcomed.
best little place ever! Vegetarian options: Various food options were on the menu Parking: Plenty of free parking lot Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to the front door
Great food and service
I was the first time at USTA and it was just PERFECT!! Awesome food and service !! Thank you so much for the great experience. Vegetarian options: Yes a lot options available Parking: Free in front of the building Wheelchair accessibility: Yes it is
We took dinner out and have to say Wow Was so good! Delicious in every bite We will be back to dine in Thank you
The food, service and staff are great! The owner is always very accommodating and super friendly!
Loved it, food was excellent, will definitely be back Dietary restrictions: No eggs in anything! Food : 5/5 |
The food is absolutely delicious ! Go for it. However the customer service is really poor. Its been twice that the waiters vacuum or sweep while were still eating. I know that the restaurant normally closes at 9pm but in this case the owner should not then accept customers around 8.30pm knowing that they will go a little over time. we informed the owner of the inconvenience caused during the vacuuming during dinner, but this one was totally indifferent to our remark. In addition, the waitress wiped my plate with her sponge instead of replacing my plate, which is intolerable in terms of hygiene
Our return visit to Usta and this restaurant never disappoints. We ordered the Dinner for 2 which was fantastic. Authentic Turkish food , fresh ,well prepared.. The chefs in the Kitchen know how to create meals to remember with portions that are large And delicious. Our food courses were served spaced out so that we could enjoy them . Staff are always Friendly and attentive. This restaurant gets 5 stars all around. A small restaurant with great service and food. Thank you a great evening,!! Parking: Lots of parking for the resturant
Had take out from USTA. It was amazing. Step up for the Halifax Regional Municipality.
Food was tasty and well presented. Had the lentil and mint soup and beet salad. Husband had lamb kabobs with rice. Service was great. Price was very reasonable.
So good! Try the halloumi!
Great food and service
This place used to be a lot better a couple years algo, but the food quality has changed. Its not bad, but there Is definitely better. Its an okay option since there arent many other Turkish restaurants at the moment.
Hands down one of my favorite places to eat. Im tempted to drive to Dartmouth this weekend just to eat there and its around a three hour drive!
Excellent! Wonderful staff and service. Foods are fresh and delicious. Calm, friendly atmosphere and a pleasant place to relax and enjoy tasty foods of the Eastern Mediterranean. I eat here often.
The food and ambience were ok but what I hated was that just behind the name of the Holy Prophet Muhammed, there were wine bottles being displayed. I found this very disrespectful being a Muslim and the fact that alcohol consumption is totally prohibited.
Was a wonderful experience. The food was fantastic, in particular Mossaco (not sure spelling is correct ). Highly recommend you to go there and enjoy your day by very delicious Turkish food
Love the young gentleman server, he is so kind and helpful! USTA is always my go to food authentic Mediterranean food and the service is even better!!
I absolutely love everything about USTA!! All the food is fresh and delicious! The staff are always very friendly and pay attention to my gluten-free needs. Lots on the Menu that is naturally gluten-free. I would highly recommend!! Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten-free available
Id like to start by saying all these years I have been planning to try USTA but always went elsewhere not realizing what I was actually missing. We had a table of 7 and noone left disappointed. The variety of appetizers and the main dish options gave us plenty to choose from and only two people ordered the same thing. I had the lamb kofte and it was so well seasoned and tender. My appie of hummus and ground lamb with the warm pita type bread was amazing. Our server really made the meal, he was very pleasant to deal with, knowledgable about the dishes and he just added to the whole situation. I plan to go back soon with my 88 year young mother and will definitely be recommending to other family and friends. Dont delay like I did as I ended up regretting that I hadnt experienced it sooner. Well done USTA.
Literally the best hummus I ve eaten anywhere, ever.
Nice restaurent, quaint and peacefull
The food here was incredible. Definitely a place to go if you like Mediterranean cuisine. The falafels were the best I ve had moist and served on a bed of hummus. I will definitely be going back there again.
Great quality food and cute environment. Waitresses are always sweet too.
Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options!! Parking: Never an issue to get parking Kid-friendliness: My kiddo loves this place. Loves the pita and mezza Wheelchair accessibility: Entirely accessible for wheelchair or seniors.
The food is consistently delicious and the staff are friendly and efficient. The Chef as well as being a true talent is welcoming and his talent in the kitchen speaks for itself.
Had a wonderful meal here after recently discovering the restaurant. We had the $65 dinner for two. Mixed meat and mixed chick. The lamb was wonderful as was the chicken. The baklava finished us off and the waitress had to carry us out with a pallet jack cause we were so full. Great spot, close to him, will go back.
The lamb is cooked perfectly. Will be going back again.
A lovely location with a great selection
Food is tasty. Service is a bit slow. Atmosphere is okay with lighting and not too loud. Will definitely go again.
A quaint restaurant with beautiful decor especially their hanging lights. We enjoyed every bite of their good sized portions of our appetizers, entrees and desert. The lamb shank was spectacular. Huge portion and fall off the bone lamb. 10/10 dining experience. Can t wait to go back again.
We had an amazing dinner! Everything was delicious! Our server Adrian was amazing! We will be back for sure
We love it here, the ambience, the food is excellent and authentic, staff are very friendly! This was our 3rd visit, the 1st being New Years Eve, the 2nd in early fall, and tonite. Our only disappointment is the temperature being so cold inside. We had to eat with our coats on, December 5th, the temp was 18 in the restaurant and we just couldnt stay warm. Wed love to go back but want to be comfortable and not rush through our meal.
Really lovely food and service, at very good prices. The dining area was a little cold but it was snowing outside so that probably explains it. Very much recommended.
Fabulous Meze shared with family
Gave it a four star because I found the place very cool. Maybe its just me? The service was great same as the food. Loved the hanging lights. This was our first time here, and our first for Turkish food.
I was told by a friend how awsome the place was, but despite how highly he recommended it. He under sold it. This is one of the best restaurants Ive ever had the joy eat at. Everything was perfect in its own way.
I cant say enough about this place! Always fresh and consistent. Cant wait to have more!
We dont eat out much but really enjoy the food from here.
Amazing service and food - very generous servings! Will absolutely be visiting again!
The food is amazing! We get the special for two and it s always so much food! Recommend for a date night or families!
Heard good things, tried the take out and was not disappointed. The meal for two was a ton of food, flavors were top notch and the staff were very pleasant and super helpful. Will definitely be back.
Food was delicious!! Must recommend!!
Great food and service. We will be back . Highly recommend
Pricey for the quantity. Other wise very good. Staff is SUPER friendly and helpfuln.
Great food, great service. I highly recommend it!
The food here is a step above most Mediterranean around here. Tons of food in the special for 2. If you arent driven to eat it all because it tastes so good, you can count on some great leftovers. Friendly and very accommodating staff!
The Turkish tea to start was lovely, the mezza plate was just enough with lots of tastes and very fresh, will definitely be back!!!
Excellant food & service with good meal portions !
So delicious
USTA is a fantastic place for dining in or getting takeaway. Any of their marinated skewer meats or kofta dishes are fantastic. Very smoothly seasoned with a balanced blend of oils and spices. Their roasted eggplant Mutabbel is the best Ive had in Halifax. Really rich and deep. Whatever you have, be sure to try the baklava.
I discovered USTA by chance and it was a great experience since then...
Love their food
Our plates says it all.
Incredibly welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Gave me water while I waited for my takeout, helped me find an option that worked with my food restrictions.
Great food and service!
Tasty food, pleasant space, pace a bit slow.
Food was great and service excellent Vegetarian options: Many Parking: Plenty of space Kid-friendliness: We had a 18 month baby with us and they we very accommodating Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible
Top quality food!
Delicious special of lamb mousakka and exceptional service.
100% a must try restaurant. A taste experience you need to have.
the restaurant is sooooo amazing that were so glad we had our first date since we moved here! The waitress Stephanie is so beautiful and nice to us! Also the Chef is so talented and wonderful to cook these magic dishes! We tried the grill cheese for appetizer, two lamb dishes even one is special today! Highly recommend the lamb dishes, best lamb we had in halifax! Definitely will come back!
Great service, and very tasty food. Highly recommended
Always a satisfying experience. Turkish has become my favorite choice, thanks to Efes, Kebab Kitchen and this establishment which is home of the best rice, soup, and Falafel.
Great place with unique food.
The mutton is very delicious, every bite is delicious, and the pita bread is also delicious. Overall rating: Better than the Turkish restaurant and Greek restaurant Ela in the city center. 10/10.
Good location, great taste, high quality of food, and friendly staff.
Had the mixed kebab platter. It was not had at all. The server was nice and attentive.
Had dinner for two and thoroughly enjoyed it
We had a great experience last week at Usta ! The good was amazing, reasonably priced and the atmosphere was really nice. Our waitress was very good and the food was served hot and fairly quickly as well. We will definitely go back again the next time we are in the area.
Nice ambiance, great service . We enjoyed the tasting of different dishes & the wine choice we had was excellent
I work in a nearby health Center and I eat my lunch at Usta almost every day. The food is just sooo Delicious, the place is clean and the service I very good. The chief is Scully Turkish who knows how to do a very well original Tukish meals.
This might be the best restaurant Ive ever eaten at. Everything was absolutely amazing and flavourful. I kept finding myself smiling as Id take a bite of food - it was absolutely heavenly. We ordered the dinner for two with the mixed kebab plate for our mains and it was amazing. Loved getting to try out different mezzes, the main was insanely delicious, and the desserts were out of this world. I cannot wait to go back again!
Amazing food and wonderful service!
A smaller setting and the food was delish!! Our server was exceptional and she was very friendly. Definitely will go back
Really enjoyed my Dinner, definitely recommend.
Delicious and quality food. Very good quality service.
We have been here before and as usual the food and service is great Adian made us feel at home and explained each serving. Dietary restrictions: my spouse has an allergy to grape leaves so none were used.
Awesome food. Friendly people. Nice atmosphere
Great food. Its my #1 go to restaraunt in hrm
What a great lunch today at USTA, lamb wrap and salad
USTA does not disappoint! Amazing food and quality service every time. HIGHLY recommend!!
Excellent Turkish food, with lots of kebab choices. And the mezze - appetizers - are awesome. Excellent prices, including those on the wine list. Not a spectacular ambience, but clean and comfortable with friendly service. Will go again.
Amazing quality food. Every time I have a meal from here I sit back at least once and marvel at how much Im enjoying the flavours and textures.
Service is on point and the food is so fresh and delicious ! They also offer some tasty vegan and vegetarian options.
Amazing
Chef-owned restaurant. Excellent Turkish & other Middle Eastern Cuisine. Well-prepared & subtly spiced. Hot & cold mezzes, lentil soup, lamb kofte & kebabs, and vegetarian dishes. For dessert, baklava, kataifi, and milky rice pudding. Moderately priced.
Favourite relaxed meal, well now, with pandemic is more like take out, but still grat. Smiling chef Usta prepares delicious köfte kebabs, be it chicken, beef or lamb (our favourite) and great mixed meze plates. Next time for us it will be moussaka, from our friends who also frequent the Usta restaurant, it is tastier they ever had.
This was a wonderful surprise. First time ordering from Usta. We ordered the Set Menu for Two, plus a Beef Kabob main. All three of us loved the food and the packaging. Totally recommend this restaurant. See the photo section for the pics.
Great food.
Excellent food and service
Honestly no complaints, food was excellent, staff was friendly and didnt come by too often. We were so full after. Was a pleasant surprise :)
We tried the mixed grill and chicken kofte kebab. Amazing and good serving size.
Ordered the mixed grill and chicken kofte kebab. Food was delicious and the service was great. Clean and good looking shop
Great food and friendly service!
My wife and I decided to try this restaraunt recently, and we were not disappointed. We purchased the Set Menu for 2 as a way to sample a little of everything. From the kebabs to the rice to the lamb to the baklava, we were both pleased with our decision to come here. Great food, great presentation. Looking forward to going again.
Best restaurant we found in the Halifax region. Fresh and tasty. You can see the chef cares about what he serves. Plus, the wine was great yet affordable.
Absolument clutch
When you come to Halifax, do not leave without stopping by, I definitely recommend it for such taste, quality and wonderful service.
Very nice size portions and the food was fantastic.
Super friendly service and tasty authentic food. Great little find, tucked away but worth it for a quality inexpensive lunch. Shows pride of ownership.
Amazing food. Amazing staff. Affordable prices. Highly recommended.
Thoroughly enjoyed sitting outside on their patio. We had the lamb shank and the lamb kabob. My favourite was the lamb shank which was the daily special. Very tasty.
Fresh and delicious. Amazing everytime!!
Absolutely phenomenal. The service and food here is amazing. USTA proved to be a hidden gem. We didnt know it existed prior to tonight and Im very glad we found it. We had a great meal and it definitely wont be our last visit.
First time here and I must say, the food was delicious! The young lady who served us was very pleasant and fun to be around. Once our food came and we dug in, there was very little talk. I had the seafood kabobs. Nicely done. The others had a variety of meals and no complaints anywhere. I will return.
What a gem! I had the lamb shank - it was the best meal Ive had in many years! The prices are reasonable and the service is excellent. You owe it to yourself to try this place ... really!
Great meal and service. The baklava was especially tasty!
Great food, great restaurant visually, and on top of that the chef makes sure youre comfortable and enjoying your meal. Cannot recommend enough!
First time. Last minute change of plans to celebrate our anniversary. So amazing. So delicious. We made a promise tonight to come back atleast once a month for a date. Atmosphere and service was spectacular.
delicious and freash
First time here while in town for medical appointment. Wife wanted to try and I was very impressed by our dishes and the staff! I had chicken köfte and she had seafood kabob, we were both extremely happy with the dishes, found the rice light and fluffy with a nice subtle flavor, and greatly enjoyed the salad served as well. We also had haloumi as an appetizer and would highly recommend!
The food we got here was simply amazing!! We ordered take out for 2... and it was by far the best weve had in a very long time!! The restaurant went out of their way to ensure we had everything! It was a great way to give us a date night at home! Theyre food was so yummy and so delicious!! We were extremely happy with it!! I think this may be one of the best restaurants in Cole Harbour for sure, but I would go as far as saying even within all of HRM!!! YUM!!!! Everything was soooo fresh!!! Even their baklava!!! OMG!! Yum!!! Im sorry we never took photos... we were in such a hurry to try Everything we never got a chance!!!
Excellent food. Very authentic & tasty. Highly recommend!
The prices are high but reasonable. The food was so flavourful, the Halloumi and pitas were the best things Ive ever had. Very well seasoned. I had the seafood kebab plate, the fish was fresh and crispy. My partner had the mixed meat kebab plate, there was a fantastic variety of meats. Healthy portion of rice, two large scoops. I went in very hungry and came out totally content. The service was great, the servers were very friendly and came and checked on us a perfect amount of times. My only complaint would be how cold it was, and the atmosphere was very industrial, but again it was just two people in there Im sure supper time with more people the environment would be much warmer and cozier! I would recommend!
The server was courteous, kind and attentive. The food was well presented and delicious! Compliments to the chef. Definitely will return.
Yummy! Delicious lamb & rice. Meze platter was perfect. Well definitely return.
Very Good food. Must visit again
Portions are big but there is nothing special about the menu
good food.
Six of us went for dinner. The service was excellent, food absolutely delicious with good portion size and pricing. The restaurant is clean. Great that you can bring your own bottle of wine for a modest corking fee. The bar menu is wine and beer only, no hard liquor. We had the price fix dinner for 2 and it gave a great sampler of the menu. Cannot wait to go back!
I went to this place with a couple of friends and we had a blessed time! The food is very delicious and our server was very friendly and warm! Would definitely go back!
Fantastic!! First time visiting USTA and it was phenomenal. The food was amazing , the service was quick and courteous and it was in a perfect location. I will definitely return! Thank you!
Friendly staff and great food.
The food was absolutely lovely by far the best yet we have tried in town. A little more expensive but worth the price. This will become one of our go to places.
Care and quality shows everytime I come here. The owner takes great pride in the dishes he puts out. Great tasting dishes. one of my favorite places to eat in Dartmouth. Also easy to find Gluten free options hre for those looking.A+
Fantastic food! Delicious! Highly highly recommend. I can t find words to convince you to go this place
The food was delicious. The atmosphere is nice. The waitress was very friendly and helpful. Was my second time there and was a great experience both times.
Awesome food and service!
Wonderful meal we when for my birthday
Very tasty with good size portions. Only concern was plastic take out containers should be changed to compostable ones.
