Truva Mediterranean Grill

The food here is amazing, it taste exactly how it taste in Istanbul. This is a Turkish family restaurant! The portion sizes are excellent, the hummus is amazing and the bread is just perfection!

I took mix grill Truva special. You have little bit of everything I highly recommend it. So delicious and tender meat , fresh salad and best appetizers I ever eat in US. We got hummus tzaziki and babaganoush all fresh and delicious. I'll definitely come back.

Best Gyro I've Ever Had! The gyro here is absolutely amazing—authentic, handmade, and bursting with original flavor. The lamb shish kebab is also outstanding. You can tell that the owner, Serdar, truly knows what he's doing. Every dish I've tried has been delicious. I travel frequently and have eaten at countless restaurants across the country, but I’ve never had food this good. On top of that, Serdar is incredibly friendly and humble, which makes the experience even better. I strongly recommend this place!

I really liked this place because the Turkish cuisine was authentic. I ordered the “Alexander” (Iskender kebab) and the taste was amazing. Not only that, the place was also clean and the staff were friendly, and most of them spoke Turkish too. I have not seen a Doner beef spinning and grilling in a long time, especially outside Turkey. The place was also clean, had restrooms, and a soda refilling station which was greatly convenient. Overall, it’s a great place to try out the Turkish cuisine, it’s probably one of the most authentic Mediterranean restaurants in the area.

Superb!!! I just randomly stumbled upon this restaurant while looking for some Döner nearby, and I’m so glad I did! I called them up to ask if their Döner was handmade or factory-made, and they told me on the phone that they prepare it fresh in-house every day. I thought, okay, that sounds good but pretty standard; but when I got there and ordered a plate of their Beef Lamb Döner plate with rice and salad, I was blown away. The presentation was beautiful, the taste was incredibly fresh, and honestly, I can confidently say I haven’t had Turkish food this good anywhere else in the U.S. Everything was top-notch—the cleanliness, the flavor, the freshness, all of it was just perfect! I absolutely loved it, and they deserve all the praise! Highly recommended!!!

Pelin greeted us with a smile and was very helpful with what to order. We decided on the truva combination plate which was DELICIOUS and enough for 2 to share with some sides. Ive paid double the price for food half as good as they serve here. Kudos to the chef. My mouth was watering as I wrote this review and remembered the tenderness of the meat. Will definitely be back whenever we're in the area!

Probably the best Turkish restaurant in all of California! We came here for lunch with coworkers after discovering this gem, and it instantly became one of our favorites. The food quality and flavors are outstanding — every dish feels authentic and freshly made. The meat is incredibly tender, practically melting in your mouth and leaving you wanting more. The hummus is truly a masterpiece — silky, perfectly balanced, never sour, and drizzled with high-quality olive oil. Even the rice stands out for its rich, savory taste. Absolutely amazing dining experience!

We ordered takeout from this restaurant and had a great experience. The place looked neat and the staff were very friendly. We tried the lamb shank and the Adana kebab plate, and the portions were more than filling for two people at around $50. The lamb shank came with a red gravy — some might prefer it a little darker and more brown — but the flavor was really good, and the meat was tender, falling right off the bone. The Adana kebab was also delicious. Overall, a satisfying meal with generous portions and excellent service.

What an amazing restaurant owned and ran by an exceptional family! Such humble, kind people and the food is out of this world with a beautiful presentation! they’ve exceeded our expectations. The kitchen is very, very clean and the food is so wholesome and fresh. We leave salivating - no exaggeration! This is a very kid friendly environment. Don’t forget to try dessert! (Rice pudding especially)

My absolute favorite place for kebabs. My family has been eating this chef’s kebabs since he was a cook back in MN at Filfillah restaurant and he always cooks meat to perfection. The adana kebab is the stuff of dreams, and the bread is pillowy and perfect. If you are in the area DO NOT MISS!

DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE If you’re in Bay and looking for the best spot to enjoy authentic Turkish cuisine, Truva Mediterranean Grill is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the warm ambiance and inviting aroma let you know you’re in for something special. Their döner is perfectly seasoned and tender, with just the right balance of spices. The shish kebab is juicy and grilled to perfection — one of the best I’ve had anywhere. Don’t skip the lentil soup either; it’s hearty, flavorful, and hits the spot whether you’re starting your meal or just in need of something comforting. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the overall atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Without a doubt, Truva is the best restaurant in Bay for Turkish food lovers. Highly recommended!

The food was fantastic. Cannot recommend this enough. I had the chicken gyros plate (sub rice with salad, no bread).

A hidden gem in Pleasanton, love the food, best shawarma of Bay Area. Adana kabob is also very good.

Some of the best food I've ever had. The quality of products used as well as the techniques that go into the creation of each dish is mind blowing. I was in from out of town and had to use a delivery service so I wasn't even getting it hot to the table, and when my food was delivered it was still beyond expected and very good. The baba ghanoush was probably my favorite part even though all of it was some of the best I've ever had. I ordered it again the next day

A great place for some excellent mediterranean food. The food is fresh, delicious and has a great taste to it. We tried the veggie plate and chicken adana gyro, which was excellent in taste. The price for the food looks pretty good, and the service was pretty fast.

First time I visited Truva a Turkish Mediterranean. It was not too crowded because of the timings. I ordered Adana Mix Plate which comes with two adana skewers a ground chicken with onion and spices, and ground lamb and beef skewer with spices on bed of rice with. salad, hummus and fresh baked bread Salad was was really good and the bread Mmm... Where comes Adnana skewers, found not very juicy, small size compare to other places and too bland for my taste. Wife ordered Chicken Adana Wrap with Ground Chicken skewer, lettuce, tomato, onion and homemade garlic sauce. It was a good serving size, only the half portion was eaten and rest I ate next day and it was still very good. Definitely, I will try again their other plates. It's a nice cozy place for a quick bite.

Located on Hopyard Ave in Pleasanton, Truva Grill serves tasty eastern Mediterranean food that appears to have been embraced by the community both near and perhaps far. We are not qualified to judge Truva Grills food, but we certainly found it to be tasty, fresh, and, in our opinion, quite good. There's a lot to choose from the expansive menu, and you probably can't go wrong with their grilled meat dishes as well as their wraps. The friendly owner is quite proud of what they serve, and rightfully so. Prices and portions are moderate. Parking might be a challenge on weekends. There are other restaurants in the Pleasanton area that serve Mediterranean food, but I think it's the casual, warm, and friendly atmosphere and food that sets Truva Grill apart from the others. Given the opportunity, we will return.

Truva Mediterranean Grill has a nice atmosphere and friendly service. The food was fresh and enjoyable, though the flavors were a bit mild and could’ve used a little more seasoning. It’s definitely on the pricier side, but still felt like a decent experience overall. We’d be open to coming back if we’re in the area again, there’s a lot on the menu we’d still like to try.

Oops! I didn’t realize the kebab set came with a small hummus, so I ordered an extra one on the side. But hey, more delicious food is never a bad thing! I’d love to come back and try some of the other dishes too. The place feeling comportable.
