I don’t like fresh tomatoes, it’s a failing. Well this place got me to eat my tomatoes and I loved them on my salad. Nobody in Minneapolis is working harder to make you feel welcomed, comfortable to try something new, and of course enjoy a good meal. We needed this restaurant in Mpls.!

Simply Amazing! Not a fan of lamb but encouraged to try the Lamb Kabob and by far the best lamb I can remember eating in a long time. Thank you for the delightful meal and the warm welcoming atmosphere, I think the WestBank has new popular landmark.
Food was good and the Baklava was amazing. Also enjoyed the Turkish Coffee. Ordered the food at the counter and waited for like 10mins, which is not bad. Spacious and Usual. There is a lot for parking behind the cafe (@3rd St) and they validate the parking ticket.

If you don't have time to read this review, then just know this: definitely come here as it has risen to be one of my favorite Mediterranean style restaurants in the twin cities.
My wife and I ordered the lamb adana entree, felafel, and turkish coffee. The adana was so flavorful, moist, and has a nice "bounce" to it that other restaurants lack (probably cause this restaurant prepares their food fresh every day). The same can be said about their pilaf rice: pillowy and fragrant. The salad was also unique when compared to other restaurants - you have the classic acidity through the tomatoes and citrus, but there was a spice we couldn't quite name that was delightful. The entree as a whole complimented itself very nicely: you have the fat and salt from the adana, the acidity of the salad, and fluffy rice and pita to wrap it all together.
The felafel was perfect: crispy on the outside, moist on the inside. It still has great texture unlike the over-fried ones at other restaurants. Combine this with their homemade cucumber sauce (which has actual cucumber slices in it!) and you have a killer appetizer.
The turkish coffee packed a real punch in a good way - I assume it was made slowly for the flavors to be extracted.
Prices are reasonable, food comes hot and fresh, and staff are nice. What more can you ask for?
Excellent Turkish cuisine, everything was delicious! Environment was also friendly and relaxing. Highly recommend.
Campus Cafe is a welcoming, accessible place to enjoy some fresh, high quality Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine. For the price, it's an excellent value and always prepared perfectly. The restaurant layout creates a lively atmosphere around lunch time, and the dining room is always well kept.
I eat here at least once a week, and I am always satisfied with my experience. The staff/owner are friendly, and always remember a familiar face. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Clean, bright, lots of space and tables. The cashier, I think he may have been the manager, was so helpful in answering questions I had about the menu. Try the roasted eggplant. It was delicious and went well spread on the pita, etc. Lamb was flavorful. I recommend ordering a few things and have trying the different flavors. I will definately go back.
I tried this place out for the first time and I dont know why I waited so long. The employees are very friendly and the space is nice. I ordered the lamb kabob, on peta bread, with lettuce, onions and tomatoes and it was FANTASTIC! I really liked the hot sauce that they offer as well. This was also my first time having Baklava and it was perfection. I look forward to coming back!!
Recommended by the staff at Midwest Mountaineering, just around the corner.
Excellent food. Prices too. Great service from the young (college students) folks at the counter.
Desert was delicious, and the Turkish coffee was legit; gritty, deeply strong and aromatic.
I'll go again.
Now they serve Turkish breakfast. It is extremely delicious!
The service was delightful and the food was delicious just how i expected
Deeeelicious! Filling and tasty Turkish food that expertly balances its segments. Portions are good sized and very nicely seasoned. Speed was good, neither slow nor suspiciously quick, and the results were worth it! Big shout out to the soup as surprisingly flavorful.
A flavor note in general - the food is well balanced and pleasant to taste. But the real fun is a few seconds later, as nearly everything i ordered in the adama platter had a subtle and delicious second taste. I highly recommend savoring each bite
