This place has the best shish kebabs. I like the mix plate. The kebabs are good too.
Though finding parking is pretty hard as this place is full of people.

No better or worse than your average turkish kebab place. Food is good but the iskander (I think I spelt that wrong) the tomato sauce that it was a little overpowering. My food came out quick, my friends slow. The cost is the same as other kebab place. It's a bit small too but at least has an outdoor area.

Last Friday, I went there with my friends. That's first time for us to try Turkish food. So it's kind of awkward spending a couple mins to stand in the middle of restaurants and looking up to the menu. After a couple mins standing, we still hadn't decided, the staff who stand behind counter gave us suggestions, which we took it, so we order 1 pide & 2 mix plate, after that we also tried the drink which looks like milk (the taste's interesting). Overall the food (3 dishes for 3F1M full enough), the price ( $12.5 per person around) and the service was surprising to us (I mean better than what we expect).

I have never had a problem with anything at Sofra, the meals have always been huge so big my husband couldn't even finish all of his plate, (and he's a huge eater). The only thing thats gets me is we ask 4 a small amount of meat and chips for our 3 yr old and he gets a huge serving and they charge us like $8.00 for it and he only eats 1/8th of it. Where have the old school kids meals gone? Other then that I thoroughly enjoy going to The Sofra every Sunday night for a feast.

My favourite spot in Sydney for kebabs. Must go for the chicken or adana plate. The salads and breads are great, and pide freshly made.

The food is still as delicious as it always was, but I have to agree with the reviewers below that the quality of service, value and portions has been on the decline for quite some time. Its disappointing as it was my favourite kebab place in Auburn.

I haven't visited Sofra for about 16 months and was totally disappointed. It is obviously under new management, the portions were smaller, the plates smaller and the food nowhere near as tasty, for your money you now get alot of Turkish bread to fill up on. It used to be huge servings on large plates but those days are gone. A big thumbs down, the only thing thats now big is the price.

Our chicken and lamb cube skewers were very tender and juicy, I also like the Turkish bread. Better if there were more onion and tomato salad on the side. The boss was nice, he gave us a free lamb skewer when he realised our order was mixed up.

It used to be good but now it is the most hopeless shocking establishment that you could make the mistake of going to. The service and management were disappointing, the order takers can't undertand the simplest of requests and they try and over charge you for what you haven't ordered or didn't want - a real disappointment to past experiences of the place. Lost a good standing customer of years for the way we were treated on the evening of Sunday, 17th September, 2006 (as well as the 30,000+ e-mail addresses in the Sydney region I have sent this review to including media contacts, critics and reviewers).
