Best Turkish Restaurants in River North (Chicago)

Risotto was fantastic. Everyone loved their dish. Beware they add on gratuity. I double tipped. I know it's not just them but I think they should point it out when they do it.

This was my 5th visit to Turquoise, and it measured up with all my previous visits, and it was also enjoyed by my two friends who had never been there before. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant, not noisy, and the temperature of the room was perfect. The service was really excellent, we did not wait for anything, and I changed my one order and they were very kind in doing that. My one observation was the attentiveness of the servers was too quick at times with, for instance, my coffee was removed before I was finished. The baklava is excellent. I highly recommend Turquoise Cafe.

A lovely small spot in East Lakeview where foodies and home cooked meal types can both be satisfied! It is a Chicago neighborhood restaurant at the top of my return-to list. Fantastic salads, exquisite lamb and kebabs, and a memorable cheesecake. Great wines, too! Enjoy!

the noise level was obnoxious. the DJ had a practically empty restaurant and she played loud techno music with willful disregard for the impact on a mostly empty restaurant and a few tables of guests trying to enjoy DELICIOUS food. The space is beautiful. The food is delicious though I found the fish stew disappointedly oily and less enjoyable than I hoped. I will return and recommend it BUT a bit of "reading the room" is indicated. She is the only person who seemed to enjoy her loud music

Our drinks were consistently taking forever to get to us. Our food came before them.
