I went to Lavenza to eat lahmacun (Turkish flatbread with meat topping) on a friend’s recommendation… I ordered two lahmacun to try them out first. The ones that arrived were absolutely fantastic in terms of appearance and taste – 10 out of 10, as they say! They were among the best lahmacun I’ve ever had. I ordered two more and ate them… I also got four to take away… The owners, Chef Aslan, Chef Hüseyin, and their son Hasan, have formed a fantastic trio. May God protect them from the evil eye… I ate delicious, halal lahmacun and ordered some to go… I recommend it to everyone…

If you really want to enjoy delicious wings, this place is a must! The smoky grilled flavor and perfectly balanced spices are amazing. Portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable. The place is clean, the staff is friendly, and the service is fast. Definitely a spot that wing lovers should try!

It was my first time and I would say it’s the cleanest place I have seen in Albany so far. Food is delicious. The lahmacun I ate was so good. Free Turkish tee was offered I even had four glasses of tee. Highly recommended

Such a pleasant surprise! We wanted to try this place since it’s Turkish and halal — and it exceeded all expectations. I had the lahmacun, my husband had the wings, and we also tried the Turkish Special çiğ köfte. Everything was delicious. I’m Turkish, and it’s honestly the best lahmacun I’ve had abroad — thin, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The çiğ köfte was fresh and full of flavor too.
The service was amazing. The staff checked on us several times, made sure everything was perfect, and even offered us tea at the end. It’s the kind of hospitality that really makes you want to come back. Highly recommended.

Delicious food and outstanding customer service! The prices are not just fair, they’re incredibly affordable for the quality you get. The lahmacun is an absolute must try, fresh and full of flavor. I’ll definitely be coming back.
P.S. It’s family owned and operated, which really shows in the care they put into everything. You can feel confident it’s clean.

Stopped by Lavenza Pizza Kebab and was pleasantly surprised. The menu has a great variety, making it easy to find something for everyone. Portions were filling and well worth the price. The kebabs were tender and well-seasoned, and the pizza crust had a nice balance of crisp and soft. What really made the visit enjoyable was how attentive and friendly the staff were throughout. A solid choice for a quick, tasty meal or a casual dinner out.
