Best Turkish Restaurants in Skokie

Everything was wonderful! The food, the cocktails, appetizers, the ambiance and we even got limoncello as a treat at the end of the evening. Just lovely My favorite part of all: the name of the restaurant!!! ELIA ❤️

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.

What a nice experience! The restaurant is intimate and cozy but tables were not tight. The food was exceptional and the service was quick. I think the experience would have been even better if it wasn't Christmas and they were waiting to turn our table. Also, there was an 18% service charge on the bill and verified that was the tip; I was not expecting it on a table for two. Regardless, we can't wait to come back and try the Sunday Brunch!

The appetizer sampler plate was so filling that we almost didn't order anything else--but we managed a couple more things. Food was great, and the service was non intrusive--like dining in Europe, the servers gave us space and time to enjoy our meal.

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