Turks Restaurant Troya in Centrum

Friendly people working here. The atmosphere on the terrace is also great. The food was delicious.

I will not repeat this experience at this restaurant. I did not like the food, and furthermore, there was a rude and unprofessional employee serving the food.

It's a shame the service is so bad, because the food is really tasty. The atmosphere and service were absolutely not good; you can get good food anywhere, but respect and good service are apparently hard to come by these days.

The service was surly and they brought the wrong drink without apology. The salad was not fresh and the leftover mezes clearly weren't either. When paying, there was no attention paid to me as a customer, just shouting and yelling at a colleague.

Lovely place along the river. The staff was very friendly and the food was also delicious .

Had a delicious lunch at this restaurant yesterday. The food tasted great and was served at the right temperature.

Had a lovely lunch on the beautiful terrace along the Rhine. Too bad the Turkish herbal tea wasn't available. Did have a tasty köfte sandwich, though. Good, with a delicious sauce and plenty of salad. The service was fine and it wasn't too busy either; we were already there before 12:00…

Enjoying the terrace with a view of the Rhine. I come here regularly because I live in the neighborhood. So, after a walk or one of my many bike rides, there is always a cold beer waiting for me here.

Truly a top-notch restaurant! The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The portions are generous, and everything was beautifully presented. The staff is incredibly friendly and hospitable, making you feel welcome immediately. The atmosphere in the restaurant is cozy, and the location on the Rijnkade completes the experience. Highly recommended for anyone who loves Turkish cuisine. I will definitely be back here more often!

We thought we would have a nice drink here and decided to order the baklava with ice cream for dessert. However, when paying, we were approached in a very unfriendly manner by a grumpy employee. He made comments about the fact that we hadn't eaten all the ice cream and asked why we had ordered baklava with ice cream in the first place. He then tried to lecture us about it. Ultimately, it is our own choice what we order and eat; after all, we are paying for it ourselves. We found this way of speaking disrespectful and completely unfriendly to customers. It is a shame, because this caused the entire experience to end on a negative note. Unfortunately, for us, this is no reason to come back again.

I had an unusually bad meal here. The dishes served are more what you would expect in a snack bar. Iskender kebab for 23 euros turned out to be a plate of bread cut into cubes, topped with lukewarm meat and canned tomato sauce. The Pizza Ottoman was tasteless; the skin was literally still on the slices of sausage. Visiting the toilet is also not recommended; it's a remote situation. It is remarkable that this is possible in the Netherlands.

We had a lovely lunch here; we ate tuna salad with bread and a shortbread roll, it was very tasty! We were able to sit outside on the lovely terrace with a view of the Rhine. Highly recommended.

We were very disappointed with our visit to Troya. The taste and quality of the food were a huge letdown and absolutely did not meet our expectations. Additionally, the service left much to be desired; we did not feel truly welcome and there was little attention paid to the guests. For the price paid, we had expected much more. Unfortunately, this was not a pleasant experience for us and we will not be returning anytime soon. We were very disappointed with our visit to Troya.

We choosed to eat in that restaurant for a second time between 2 months difference with each time because we were satisfied with the first time, unfortunately the second time out visit there was a disaster.the prices were doubled and the portions were literally 1/3 from the previous time.also the waiter kept ignoring us while we clearly addressed him and the fact that there were food from our plates that clearly it should be included just like in the menu.the I believe owner tried to compensate with 4 loukoumia ffs.never again horrible experience

The restaurant doesn't look great inside. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food was quite mediocre. I ordered a drink, but it was the last one they had. After that, I had to order something else. Not a problem in itself, but a bit sloppy.

Unfortunately, the staff's attitude was negative. I won't be going there again.

Very dissatisfied with this restaurant: grumpy and unprofessional service, and the food was really not tasty. We were even served pineapple, which absolutely does not belong in Turkish cuisine. The worst part was that we wanted to order a carafe of tap water, but we could only order Spa Blue for €6.50 because “they didn’t have tap water.” Then we were given a bottle of Sourcy with a loose cap, filled right to the brim. It turned out to be just tap water after all. The first and last time for us.

We had a delicious meal and more than enough! A 3-course menu via Social Deal, with plenty of choice for starters and main courses. Friendly service. Highly recommended if you want to eat well in Arnhem!

Had a delicious lunch and received very friendly service, and we even got a handshake upon departure. A bit far for us, but worth repeating👌

The food was good, arranged via a Social Deal. The service was fine and fast. For dessert, however, they were a bit difficult about the Social Deal voucher. Eventually, someone else looked it up, everything was correct, and there were no further issues. But overall, a fine restaurant to go to with a Social Deal offer. Nice location by the water as well.

The food was not tasty, much too tough, and the steak had fat. In short, we are not going here again.

There were four of us sitting on the terrace. After a long wait, someone finally came to ask what we wanted. I was still looking at the menu for a moment when suddenly someone said... if you don't know, I'll go to other people who are waiting. That came across as very rude. My family already knew what they wanted, and when I wanted to ask about a type of tea, the response was again rude that they didn't have it, with a remark like "surely that's possible"! Everything had to be done very quickly and hastily, which made me feel really uncomfortable. Later, when paying the bill, my husband also heard that there were more complaints, so that says enough. They really need to learn to be friendlier, because this was not a pleasant experience!

Had a delicious meal. Very friendly service. Great 👍

By far the most atmospheric terrace on the Rijnkade, especially since the renovation. They are open to feedback, so always give it directly and you will have a top-notch experience! Thanks for everything, you guys are amazing!

I have never had such a bad meal in a restaurant. The food was simply disgusting and cold!!! The owner was very unfriendly and angry about these comments. Definitely NOT recommended.

Waited 45 minutes. Asked multiple times if we could order something. 0 service, completely ignored. Got up and left.

We thought we'd have a nice Turkish meal on a Saturday evening around 6:15-6:30 PM. Upon arrival, three tables were occupied, which surprised us. We ordered drinks and food. We had kebab, bread with tomato sauce, lamb chops, fries, salad, rice, and a shrimp appetizer. My kebab was cold and lacked flavor, the lamb chops were okay (they were the only thing we ate together), but the shrimp dish looked awful. The fries had mayonnaise—two fries mixed in, and the mayonnaise was gone. We had to ask for more. We really felt like we'd get sick if we ate all that. Someone working there came to our table, and we immediately told them it wasn't to our liking, it was cold, and that we unfortunately wouldn't be eating it. The food was immediately taken away by someone else, and we were still charged €86. Absolutely no apology, no service, no anything. We will never go there again. This experience is very unfortunate!

We bought a 2.5-hour all-you-can-eat package through Social Deal. What we received, however, was a tasting menu, not an all-you-can-eat. We received a tiered tray with various appetizers, but it contained lots of vegetables, salads, and dips, but hardly any meat. We did get shrimp and squid rings (one per person each, a bit meager). Although the portions were sufficient, we were disappointed because we couldn't choose anything ourselves and were out within an hour. It was also very cold inside.

Delicious food, very hospitable

We had fantastic tapas on December 19th. Lots of different dishes/appetizers, and the chef even brought extra shrimp skewers and fried mussels. Delicious Turkish bread. Highly recommended... we booked through Social Deal. Friendly waiter. We had a pleasant evening.

We recently went out for dinner through a social deal, and the three-course menu was perfect, and even better! We thoroughly enjoyed it.

We had a delicious meal there. There were options for both meat eaters and vegetarians. The service was friendly and attentive. The restaurant is cozy, housed in a beautiful old building, and the music was great.

Really good food! They're right at your table! Really delicious food! The price is great. We ate here through a social deal, and it was more than worth the money.

Upon entering, we noticed it was quite cold inside. We hoped it would warm up over time, but unfortunately, it didn't. We were a group of seven. Except for the chicken and pizza dishes, the other meat dishes were mediocre. The köfte was too tough, and the other meat wasn't tender; you really had to work hard to eat it. The restaurant doesn't have its own parking. The service was friendly. We had expected more beforehand.

We had delicious, authentic Turkish dishes. The food was served very generously. The staff were incredibly friendly and the atmosphere was great.

Lovely restaurant. The service very friendly and the food is excellent. To anyone who appreciates mediterranean culture I highly recommend this lovely restaurant. Çok güzel 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Everything you could want from a patio: friendly, fast service, long opening hours, good food, and a beautiful view of the water. Top spot!

The weather was nice, great atmosphere on the beautiful quay of Arnhem

Nice warm atmosphere, ordered fish and it was very tasty

I had a bad experience before, but I had a delicious meal here recently and the service was very friendly.

Food lukewarm, meat very fatty. Friendly service.

Everything was tasty and fresh. Great atmosphere.

Very rude and suggestive waiter. Questioned us why do we speak English while we live here. None of his business. He was indian or something. Bragged about himself. We felt unwelcomed. 👎👎👎👎. Left immediately.

I ordered a steak here. The steaks were undercooked and there wasn't enough of them. Roasted eggplant was served with the steak, but the eggplant was only lightly roasted. Three stars is even too many.

We ate there with my husband's sister, the food was delicious, the terrace was nice, the service was friendly and fast, we will definitely come back here, nice by the water

Great service and very friendly top food I will come again😄

Nice terrace, comfortable chairs. But man, how can a place like this run with such bad food and absolutely terrible wine? The wine smelled stale and looked like it came from a cardboard box. I really don't understand.

We had a delicious meal at this Turkish restaurant tonight. I highly recommend the mixed grill platter. The staff was friendly and courteous. We received a warm welcome upon arrival and were given an explanation of the appetizers at the table. We will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful meal at Troya, with a beautiful view of the Rhine! Friendly service. The tasting menu as an appetizer is highly recommended.

The food was neither fresh nor tasty – absolutely no quality. Very disappointing. The only positive aspect was the Indian staff member, who was friendly and attentive.

Very nice service, very friendly and tasty. The food too by the way.

Had to be in Arnhem for a meeting. After the meeting we went here for breakfast for 2. Really recommended!!! Pictures speak for themselves.

The terrace is beautifully situated on the recently renovated Rijnkade, and it is lovely when the sun shines. We had some kind of Turkish Tapas. That was fine to take. The food and surroundings were fine. However, I was less pleased with the service. I thought it was just me, but other reviews give somewhat the same picture. It all felt a bit distant and very businesslike.

Great, good service and everything is excellent

—A real highlight – thoroughly recommended!— Yesterday we had dinner at the Troya restaurant in Arnhem (NL) – and I was absolutely thrilled! The food was excellent, *especially the starters were incredibly tasty* and lovingly prepared. You can taste the quality and care in every bite. There is also a *beautiful view of the river*, which rounds off the atmosphere perfectly. The *ambience is also pleasant and stylish*, so you immediately feel at home. The staff was *very friendly, attentive and warm* – the overall package is just right here! I *highly recommend* this restaurant and will definitely come back. If you want to enjoy Turkish cuisine at a high level, this is the right place for you!

Eaten here before, years ago. It was very disappointing. Appetizer mushrooms with onion and pepper. Altogether 6 slices of mushroom and unfortunately cold. We had to ask for main course lukewarm ice cream with pathetic spray can of whipped cream. Too few staff. Had to wait 45 minutes for drinks, when paying the bill turned out to be 1 trippel too much. Halfway through, due to dusk, a very large lamp was placed on the table, so I could no longer see my partner. The excuse was that the terrace had been opened again for the first time today.

Pleasantly surprised! Really delicious food. Meat was well grilled and seasoned, salad and fruit were fresh and the baklava was delicious. We ate inside, nice place, good atmosphere and friendly service. Later we had coffee outside on the terrace, and the heater was immediately turned on for us. Definitely worth repeating

We had booked a 3-course menu through Social Deal. Reviews on SD were pretty okay until I read them here. We came to this restaurant with a gut feeling, but we really enjoyed our meal. Ordered bread in advance and this was very tasty bread, not hard as I read in a review, but really nice and warm and soft. Not with the cucumber yogurt sauce mentioned on the menu, but with a delicious garlic sauce. Calamaris starter was absolutely not greasy and tasted delicious. The dough rolls filled with cheese were also tasty. After reading the reviews here on Google, we did not dare to choose the meat, so we ordered a pizza with tuna. I don't think this is on the menu on the website? But you can order via SD. We absolutely did not regret this! Normally I'm not a fan of a tuna pizza (often very dry) but this was delicious!! Best tuna pizza we have ever eaten. We each only had half, because we had already eaten so much bread beforehand and asked if we could take it with us. This was no problem and no additional costs were charged. Ice cream dessert with chocolate sauce was not chocolate sauce but a kind of fruit sauce, but very tasty. I don't think baklava was homemade, but bought, and was a bit dry. Coffee and Turkish tea also okay! In short, we had a delicious meal here and would love to come back again. Side note; Owner (at least I think so) is not very friendly, a bit surly. Gave several compliments, but that did not change his attitude. English speaking employee, was very friendly. It was also not too warm in the restaurant, so I put on a scarf from my jacket.

- The quality of food is low (clean, to be honest) - The staff are not that friendly - prices are normal

Had a great meal here. The restaurant is a bit outdated and the heating could have been slightly higher, but the service certainly made up for this with their friendliness

We didn't think the service was good. We didn't feel welcome, which is actually quite bizarre. Half of the food was undercooked and the meat was not tasty. There was quite a bit left on our plates, so I asked if we could take the leftovers for our dog. They charged €2 in packing costs.

Great food for a competitive price. When in doubt: just do it!

Delicious peeze coffee and pastries. It's a shame that the municipality of Arnhem lets them down like this... Good reception and cozy atmosphere inside.

Mixed feelings about this restaurant. Pro's - We got a basket of bread with delicious garlic sauce on the house, which was attentive. No's - The owner gave me a little bit the creeps. In the end I could get a smile off his face but I had to make some very universially true jokes and compliments to make it happen. Replacing the owner with a more friendly face at first entry point would be nice. - Food in our case tastes good but was on the higher end. It was thanks to the basket of bread we got our stumach full with 1 drink each person, an appetizer & mixed main course (shared by 2 people as we are not the biggest of eaters) - Ambiance: I do not know what those LED strips in my face flashing all colors of the rainbow would add in ambiance, but for the love of Allah, remove them. In addition, swim diploma's of your grandchildren? Sweet but unprofessional. - Toilet: Whoever made this arrangement should be fired. My god how inconvenient it is to pee in the uriniour in the men's corner. Thats just... it would hit Facebook build fails for sure. - Price: I wonder why an Irish coffee has to be costing 8.10 but a Turkish coffee only 3.95, Some of the prices seem excessive. All in all, mixed feelings about this restaurant but I do think its going to be a one-time try only unless they really make a sizeable overhaul a la Gordon Ramsey style saving restaurants from the brink of collapse.

Delicious food, friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, nice place!

Unexpectedly nice place to stay. Well received, pleasant, friendly and attentive service. Tasty food, very good price-quality ratio. (despite Groupon benefits). Good diversity, highly recommended.

Meat is tender and excellently marinated. Portions of vegetables are small. A nice salad just goes with the dish! Therefore -1 star. Service is great. But come back for the atmosphere, and service, and the seasoned meat.

We ordered a delicious lunch, price, cleanliness, service at the highest level.. I am very grateful to the staff for the warm welcome

Nice restaurant in a nice location. Tasty food, friendly service. Recommended!!

The food was very tasty, 5 stars for that. Unfortunately the rest was a bit less, service did what had to be done, but that's about it. It was not very pleasant that we felt like we were the only ones for the first half hour. Now a restaurant cannot always do the same, but a little music in the background could make a difference. Next time I would first take a good look inside to see if there are several tables filled before I walk in myself.

Tasty and lots of food for a good price.

The service and food were really good. Worth a try, thank you

I have never eaten so bad, as someone already said ..if you have walked down this street!! Food was very fishy and still expensive

When the work on the Rijnkade is finally completed, this will be a fantastic location for a restaurant. But my experience was less. All the people were smoking outside on the terrace, so I sat inside. The interior is very over the top, they should have installed simpler furniture, so that there was budget for a good chef. Because whoever is in the kitchen is certainly doing their best, but it wasn't good. If you have to pay 29.95 for lamb chops, you expect fresh meat that is cooked in such a way that it almost falls off the bone. But not the dark, tough pieces like your neighbor gets from the BBQ. The vegetables and salad were fresh, the couscous warmed up in the microwave. Baklava for dessert, which I think also came from the microwave, was missing the walnuts. All in all I thought it was a disappointing experience. I hope this is not representative of real Turkish cuisine. It was very dark inside, the non-Dutch speaking waiter had to use the card reader to read the bill.

Very mediocre, and the meze completely overpriced and poor. No need to come back here again.

A wrap from Lidl would have given me more than the overpriced and poor quality food in this restaurant. It's been a long time since I've reached so deep into the toilet.

What poor and unfriendly service. It was Wednesday afternoon and we were the only customers, sitting on the terrace. The owner himself could not be friendly for a moment. Women were not answered or looked at, completely ignored. The waitress was very friendly. Dishes served did not match the description on the menu. It's a shame to fill up this beautiful spot on the Rhine.

Unfortunately the food had little taste, the steak (bavette) was decent but no grilled taste, the mushroom sauce had no taste, the bulgur was dry and the salad had brown pieces in it, and the cocktail contained a fruit fly. The service was good. Unfortunately, this was a one-off for me.

We had dinner here with a group. A wrong decision because you don't get value for your money. The food was tasteless and not good. The service at the table was chaotic, so the entire table was full and you couldn't reach anything properly. We had to arrange the table ourselves. I don't think this is nice if you are with a group. The food is placed randomly somewhere on the table. We ordered a mix grill where you would get multiple types of meat. A skewer was 80% filled with vegetables and there were literally 2 pieces of meat on it. Criticism is not really taken up by the staff.

The staff are not that friendly.

Had a good meal with my wife, friendly service and super tasty food

Well located overlooking the river, had the hot and cold combo appetizer and was disgraceful both in taste and quantity ( 1 hot and 6 cold) . Waiters are not attentive and argue between each other. A place not to return definitely.

Great atmosphere. Service was good overall. Food could be better for the price.

just came here to have a drink, there were several tables free, but I was asked to sit somewhere else because people were coming to eat. while there were still tables available in front of, behind and next to me (three quarters of the terrace was empty). he said I could stay for half an hour to drink my tea, then I had to leave. no other table selected for me, nothing. felt very unwelcome and found it incredibly rude.

Meat was tasteless and texture is clearly visible that it is not fresh. Mr had difficulty with feedback and taking the food back. It is special that you persistently stick to your position. You don't have to be an expert to see that the meat was not fresh. This can make you sick, which is scandalous.

We went for dinner. The food was very good and I was pleased with the service. The waiters and so on were all very nice, they brought us whatever we wanted. I recommend you not to go

Turks Restaurant Troya offers a delightful dining experience with some notable highlights. The yogurt sauce with coriander was a standout, providing a refreshing and flavorful complement to the meal. The lamb was tasty, though not as tender as I had hoped. The rice burley was fresh and well-prepared, adding a nice touch to the overall dish. However, the bread was a bit of a letdown as it wasn’t fresh and seemed not to be from the day. Pricing was reasonable, but we encountered a hiccup with payment as they do not support Visa, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, it’s a solid choice for Turkish cuisine with a few areas that could use improvement.

The food is quite okay. The service can be better. When paying, I had to come back because they added too many drinks to the bill. Unfortunately, they just have sugar, and no sweeteners for coffee.

Nice meal, nice terrace, but the service could be a bit more cheerful

Food was good, location was fine,

Troya Arnhem big flop restaurant! What an incredibly bad experience we had in this restaurant called Troya Arnhem. It calls itself a Turkish restaurant and that is a gross insult to Turkish cuisine. As a starter we had mushrooms in a kind of sauce that looked good on the photo of the menu, but in real life it was a big disappointment. The fried squid rings were too oily, but we could have them because we were very hungry. The tavuk si's (chicken skewers) were far from what we were used to and were tasteless and the well-known grilled taste was not there either. The layout of the plate with canned sauce and canned vegetables was dismal. The epitome of misery was the adana kebab which was smelly, strangely red and tasted terrible. We were not able to take any follow-up bites here because this was not responsible. When we told the waiter this, he shrugged his shoulders and continued his activity. There we were, looking forward to dinner on the terrace on the Rhine. The only thing that tasted was the cold coke from a bottle. When I informed the manager at our table about the poor, non-Turkish food (which we expected), he became irritated and said that he had no complaints about the adana kebab and that I should not complain. Not a single move at the checkout to compensate for our bad experience. In fact; we also had to receive insults. Rude and insolent. Paid 77 euros tuition fee. People, I warn you. I did not read the reviews of this terrible restaurant in advance, which resulted in this bad experience. So my advice is not to go. Run through. Bad food, bad service and unworthy of a Turkish restaurant! See also the photos for visual proof.

Super nice restaurant, friendly staff

Food was fine. Service grumpy and curt.

Atmosphere and service were excellent. The mixed maze was very poor. After consuming the 1 person mixed grill, immediate stomach and intestinal complaints. If you want to spend the whole evening on the toilet, I recommend this tent.

Terrible food, nice location, great service.

We drank 3 cups of coffee and 2 pieces of cheesecake. The bill was 36 euros. It was very expensive.

Was there during King's Day! Despite the hustle and bustle, we received a super hospitable welcome! Food was super tasty. Special thanks to Bunyamin bey he was super patient and friendly!

Nice place for lunch and meeting up for drinks. Host is very friendly en welcoming.

Had dinner on the terrace on a warm Saturday. Tasted good. Owner asked if we wanted fries with it. We wanted that, but then it was forgotten. When we asked about it, it was brought much later. Fries looked good, but were limp. The rest of the food was good.
