We discovered this restaurant when in Philadelphia last year. We had to go back when we were in town again. The food is consistently excellent and the people courteous and friendly. Looking forward to visiting again next spring.

Our waiter was outstanding! He was talkative and courteous. He explained a few things that we had questioned about and made some... More

When I filled out their comment card I had to answer the question what could we improve or do differently, I had nothing to say. The food, the atmosphere, the portions and service were a #10. Tarama varies from chef to chef, but Leziz's was by far my favorite out of all the others I've tasted. The Tavuk Adana Kebab... More

Having read a review of Leziz we figured we would give it a try since we were in the vicinity during a Saturday lunch time.The restaurant is conveniently located less than a block from South Street (near 6th.

Everything at Leziz is excellent. Their chicken melts in your mouth. Nothing is overly spicey and the prices are very reasonable. I always end up taking home about half my dinner and have enough left over for the next day. The hummus and babaghanoush (spelling??) is also very good- and their cheese roll appetizer. I had a similar dish (chicken... More
