About this place Kooi Uzak Doğu Restoran

Kooi Uzak Doğu Restoran is a cheap, busy East Asian restaurant in the Hacettepe area of Altındağ, close to the Hacettepe University hospital campus and Sıhhiye. It's a mainstream place that we list as gay-friendly, not a gay venue. The menu covers the usual Far East mix found in Turkish cities: noodles, rice bowls and sushi-style dishes. A 4.9 Google rating from over 2,000 reviews shows a large, happy student and local following. Prices are low, so it fills up at lunch and early evening. Turkey has no legal protections for LGBTQ+ people and public attitudes vary, so the usual discretion applies in Ankara.

I absolutely loved this Far Eastern restaurant where I went to try kimbap and mochi! 🤩 Everything was so delicious and carefully prepared that I knew I had made the right choice from the very first bite. The kimbap and mochi, in particular, were truly excellent; both their freshness and flavor were fantastic. 🥢✨ Besides that, all the staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming. They make you feel very comfortable and special from the moment you enter. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and a lovely atmosphere creates a truly delightful experience. It's definitely a place I'll want to come back to again and again. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who loves Far Eastern cuisine or wants to try new flavors. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As a fan of Asian cuisine, everything we tried was delicious. But the Korean chicken was legendary; I highly recommend trying it. It's a calm and clean establishment.

We told the gentleman who came to take our order that it would be our first time trying East Asian cuisine and asked him about the ingredients of the items we wanted to order. He sincerely answered all of them and offered suggestions. We ordered Bento 2 and 4, shrimp spring rolls, and Japanese pickles. The gyoza in the Bento didn't appeal to us; it was a dough filled mostly with vegetables. The sushi in Bento 2, with rice and cucumber, was good, but the sushi in Bento 4 had a very mixed filling and we didn't like it. The shrimp spring roll also didn't appeal to us in terms of taste. The chicken in Bento 2 and 4 was quite good; the sauces were different, but both suited our palates. We asked about the ingredients of the Japanese pickles, and they said they were made from Japanese radishes. Again, the taste wasn't similar to our pickles, but it was good; we liked it, it had a different flavor. Overall, I've decided that East Asian cuisine isn't to my taste, but I was very pleased with the service at the restaurant. I'd like to extend my special thanks to the gentleman who answered all our questions in detail, helped us with the ordering process, and even asked if we liked our food and offered additional suggestions while we were eating.

The beef noodles and sushi were absolutely delicious. The products were fresh, we really liked them. The sweet and sour chicken was also very good, you can choose them with confidence. 💖
