Story

Ankara celebrates good food, hospitality and the heart of Turkey. It is an upscale-casual dining experience that celebrates the rich diversity of Turkish food and culture through a blend of classic and contemporary menu offerings and superb hospitality.

Our culinary team draws on a deep knowledge of classic and contemporary Turkish cooking as well as the many regional influences on Turkish cuisine. The owners of Ankara tapped Chef Jorge Chicas to oversee creation of the menu and training of the kitchen staff. Chef Chicas resume includes top positions in Jose Andres’ kitchens in Los Angeles and Washington, DC, including the award-winning Zaytinya.

Ankara is a labor of love for the Aslanturk family. Fathers, brothers, wives, cousins and children in both Washington, DC and Ankara, Turkey have come together to create a place that offers superior food, and encourages conversation and celebration amongst friends and family as well as neighbors and business professionals in the Dupont Circle neighborhood.

Great food, nice place. Not outstanding. A little too dark. Some liveliness would not hurt the design of the interior. The servants were interrupting our meeting by interjecting their questions while my colleague was clearly in the middle of a sentence. That's the only reason I am not giving 5 stars.

I got such a bad and disappointed experience at this restaurant. First, it took forever to be served; second, the good dishes were all run out; third, the few dishes available didn’t taste good. I was following all the good reviews about this place, but it was far away different the reality. I do not recommend this place. There are many other better options with a good service.

What a great experience! Authentic Turkish food and wine, provided with great service. I recommend this to everyone and anyone. Around us were couples, a girls night out, and a small party, everyone having a good time.

Amazing!! As a Turkish American, it is extremely hard to find truly authentic Turkish food here. The food is absolutely incredible, the service is excellent. A true taste and experience of Turkey!
