We visited the place and had great time with friends. Great atmosphere inside the place and fresh food with great service
I would definitely recommend this place to try great turkish askinder kabab and mixed grills

We ordered the lamb chops and lamb shish kebab. It was pretty standard.nothing to write home about. They were both slightly underseasoned for our taste, and we didn't get a "grilled" flavor. Rice was ok. The only thing we loved was the fresh bread. We also felt that the quantity of food wasn't enough to justify the price.

Stellar place with homey vibes. The food was delicious, and the owner even helped us with the items on the menu explaining things and was friendly. It’s a very special and unique place. Parking is not so great fyi but I recommend checking this place out!

I have been coming here for years and they never disappoint. The food is superb. I love the chicken adana kabob plate, the kebabs are perfect! Their appetizers are also good, I love the bread with babaganush! One of the best in town tbh. Lastly the dessert is outstanding. I love the rice pudding and my dad loves the flan type cake. The best part is ending the night with their calming tea in the beautiful cups! This is definitely a place I'd recommend everyone to check out!

I enjoy Mediterranean cuisine a lot. I've had lamb everywhere I've been. The cheese-topped Kofta was just amazing. We could have easily cut the lamb with a fork because it was so soft. Pizza made with lamb was also excellent. If they included garlic sauce, that would elevate it. I like that the quantity offered here is not excessive, unlike many middle eastern restaurants.

The food is amazing and the owners are great, welcoming and accommodating. They truly make you feel like family. The staff is wonderful as well. Great place, will eat there everytime we are in the area.

Since my trip to Turkey I've been craving Kunefe. I searched for places in Houston were to buy it and Pasha came up. I was very excited to eat Kunefe again but I was a little disappointed. It was not the same as the one I tried in Istanbul. The Kunefe needed more cheese and the little bit of cheese it had I was not melted all the way.

I went for lunch with my family and the lunch was a little better than the dessert. My husband and I shared the Doner Shawarma Kebab (beef and lamb). The meat was bland. It was missing a lot of flavor. The rice was good (I love rice). We also share a Turkish pizza the Lahmacun. It was really good the meat was good. We ordered with cheese but they forgot to add the cheese. My parents ordered the Lamb Shish Kebab and it was delicious. They loved it! I tried some of the lamb and it was tender and it had flavor. We also shared one of my favorite Turkish appetizers Sigara Borek. They were amazing!

The owner was there he took care of us. He was very nice.

The website and Google listing says the restaurant closes at 9: 30pm. Our party of 2 walk in at 8: 45pm. There are about 5 tables with customers waiting and/or eating. The owner who is at the front lets us know that they close at 9: 30pm. I reply "that's fine, table for 2. " He rudely says "No you cant. We don't take dine in after 8: 30pm. There's no time for us to make the food and serve you at the table. But you can order to go. " This makes no sense to me because if you have the time to prepare the food to go, you can prepare the food for dine in. I was embarrassed because I was taking someone to dinner and had raved about Pasha's. I am appalled and although I love the food but I doubt if I would come back because of this incident. You should list that time restriction on your website or menu.

Absolutely delightful! The Pasha Meze Platter is a must try (didn't even get a pic, we ate it so fast!). All the appetizers are so good and this way you get to try them all! Lovely in house made bread and dipping oil. The yogurt kabobs (pictured) are delicious and tender and the sauce complex and comforting (we had them with lamb). Both times we've come during off hours so it was nearly empty and quiet with wonderful Turkish music playing softly. This great little hole in the wall is a must try!

You must try the red lentil soup! I savor it on my way to the restaurant! I love the attention of the owner, the waiters, and the kitchen staff. Sencillos y atentos y siempre con una sonrisa y buena disposicion!

Decent restaurant, however I believe they have been hit hard by raising food prices. We order the lunch special for $17 and it was good but nothing impressive. Honestly nice owner, but I doubt If I would come back. The kehab was only 5 pieces with the eggplant salad. Good but nothing to bring me back.

The homemade pita bread went great with the tabouli and eggplant dip. The dolmas were unique and some of the most flavorful I’ve had. My dad loved the thick crust pizza, and the red wine the waiter surprised us with was a hit. The atmosphere was peaceful, the food came out fast, and we were well serviced. I’d love to make another stop here!

Great Turkish Restaurant in Houston. Food is great! Service is great as long as the older guy is not around. He is either too caring and nice or very rude. Once he welcome us and greet us a lot, it was very nice of him. Another time he kicked us out of the place since we arrived 35-40 min or so before closing. Food is great as I mentioned before.

My husband and I found this hiding gem right at the start of the pandemic and we've been going since. We go to Pasha's at least 2-3x a month. I would go more but I don't want to burn my husband out. I even took my parents once. The owner is really nice and the staff is very pleasant. The food is amazing! My favorite is the stuffed lamb meatballs and lamb chops.

Excellent owner, very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is clean and well organized, the service was fast. The food wass de-li-cious! I ordered lahmacun and Iskender Kebab and my hubby had Combo kebabs: doner (shawarma) and Adana. We both enjoyed our lunch very much. Thank you so much! I recommend this place especially if you are Turkish cuisine lover Definetly will come again!

Came back again and got the beef shish kabob. The lunch special comes with some bread, a side, and a main plate.the bread smell and tasted delicious. The owner told us it was freshly made. The beef was amazing and staffs were friendly!

Absolutely recommend!

We went to the restaurant for the first time it was empty and we treated well the at the first 30 minutes, later we received a rude treatment from the owner, we asked him to add a fries he pushed us to cancel the order by saying it will take about 15 minutes to 20 minutes to prepare it, it’s not Mac or Kentucky fries and you can take a ready appetizer instead. We didn’t mention that we are in rush and also we had enough time to stay till the restaurant close.after that we found him bringing the check without requesting it. Two families enter the restaurant and also was treated badly, He told one of them that the place is fully reserved. Also he mentioned to the other he didn’t accept separate check. Both of them left after those situations. He started to profile people and when a Turkish family entered they were treated very well. I think if the owner had a reserved day and don’t want to welcome people he just need to put a sign outside that the place is closed better than accepting clients and forced them to leave. Also if he wants to open the restaurant for Turkish people only. Just add it in your website
