This family‑owned Turkish restaurant truly stands out in Chapel Hill. From the moment we walked in, the staff greeted us with genuine warmth and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the bar area adds a nice touch if you want a drink before your meal.
For two people, we ordered an entrée to share, main courses, alcoholic beverage, desserts, and traditional Turkish tea. Our total was around $100, and it felt absolutely worth it for the quality, flavor, and portion sizes. (They gave us complimentary Turkish flat bread and traditional sauce to dip it) The service was exceptional—our food came out surprisingly fast, and staff checked on us often without being intrusive.
Everything tasted fresh and authentic. Highly recommend make a reservation. We were lucky to find a table for a walk-in. Right place to dine-in if you are craving real Turkish cuisine and warm hospitality.

Just absolutely absolutely marvellous.
I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to discover this gem.
I’m Jordanian and we share a lot of our cuisine with Turkiye, this food is hands down the BEST food I’ve had in NC.
It is AUTHENTIC, full of flavor, very true to the original recipes, fresh ingredients, various choices with amazing care to detail.
Janan was our waitress and she was an absolute star. The service was FAST, they don’t hover, they are helpful and very professional.
Value for money is impeccable, everything is reasonably priced and dare I say even less than I expected.
The atmosphere, decor, lighting is all top tier, very Mediterranean/Turkish feel. Great music and the volume wasn’t too loud.
Overall would highly HIGHLY recommend.
As a Levantine, this food felt close to home and the warmth of the service is phenomenal. 5/5
My order: Boreg, Yaprak, Sultan Ahmet Kofte, Kunefe, Cay, Manti, and that night’s special was the Slow Cooked Eggplant Tomato Lamb Shanks.

Our group of 7 had an enjoyable evening at Talullas on a very busy Saturday night. Baha, our lively waiter, added to our enjoyment. All of our apps and entrees were excellent, with extra kudos to the two specials, grilled/filleted bass and lamb shank. It’s been a while since we dined at Tallulas and we realized that we were missing out on a very fine and fun restaurant. We’ll be back!

Probably the best restaurant on Franklin St. Cozy and lively ambiance. Food is authentic and the meat is very well done. The Sultan’s Delight was the standout from our order. It gets quite busy on the weekends so reservations are recommended. Cocktails weren’t bad also.

It is easily the best dining experience on Franklin Street and likely the best in all of Chapel Hill. I highly recomend this place to anyone traveling and searching for authentic Turkish cuisine. The food is lovingly and thoughtfully prepared. The service staff treats you like family, and it’s clear that the business is also family owned. I came in on a Tuesday with a friend to have drinks and a few bites to eat when I say they kept the kitchen open for 45 minutes after close to accommodate us. This level of courtesy is something I have never experienced anywhere. This restaurant deserves your patronage and support. Get the lamb, and there’s a sauce it’s red and oregano and garlic based. Get it too. If you see me at the bar I’ll take a glass of any red because the wine game is fire. You’re welcome.

I’m wowed. The sauces are both flavorful and light. The falafel and fritters are highly recommended. The batter is light, not oily, but still melts in your mouth. The flavors are rich, and honor the raw ingredients.
Highly recommended the seabass and lamb shank. The lamb shank is the definition of tender, melting off the bone. Below there are fries and a slightly sweet tomato sauce, as well as a creamy mushroom sauce which compliments the lamb delightfully. The fish has a perfect grilled flavor. The other dishes tasted great as well.
The scenery, and music is beautiful, especially if you get the booths :).
All around an amazing restaurant, a hidden old gem.

I treated my friend to dinner here as a thank you for taking my grad photos. We were seated right away. Service was friendly and checked up on us throughout. We shared the mezze tabagi and I ordered the sultan’s delight with filet mignon. Both dishes were delightful. I also tried a piece of my friend’s adana kebab and although I usually don’t like lamb, this was delicious. We ended the meal with Turkish coffee. Furthermore, the decorations of the restaurant was beautiful. Although the restaurant was on the pricier end for us, we would definitely come back here for special occasions!

One of the best spots on Franklin Street!
Whenever I crave authentic food, I come to Talullas with my friends. The atmosphere, food, and service are always top-notch everything you want in one place. I usually come on Fridays or Saturdays for their special Iskender dish, which never disappoints. The salads, tea, and especially the kazandibi dessert are absolutely amazing.
If you are looking for something unique and truly authentic, this is the place. I will definitely keep coming back!
