Oklava Cafe

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing an authentic Turkish brunch here, and it was absolutely delightful! The food was not only delicious but also a refreshing and unique experience in the Bay Area. From the perfectly cooked eggs to the flavorful accompaniments like fresh olives, honey, cheeses, and simit, every bite transported me to a different part of the world. The quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail were impeccable. This place offers an eastern culinary experience that stands out, and it’s a must-visit for anyone looking to try something different and memorable. Highly recommend it to all food enthusiasts! I will definitely be back to relive this amazing brunch.

I absolutly love this place. I have recently moved to the area and have found a few friends here. The staff are super nice and friendly, food is amazing, I always order the single Turkish breakfast. Turkish coffee is awesome and the baklava is so fresh! Definitely recommend.

We have been there twice, couple weeks ago. When we there at the evening we tasted their latte and Turkish desserts. They have very talented barista and prepared very good lattes with different designs:) Their desserts were amazing The next day we were there for breakfast and their breakfast menu is awesome. They served very good variety of breakfast items and their scrambled eggs was served in a cast iron pan. It was extremely delicious. The turkish bagel - simit- was one of the best parts. Highly recommended...

Oklava Cafe offers a charming escape in the heart of Palo Alto. The small but beautifully designed indoor space creates a cozy atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely afternoon. While the cafe is intimate, they also have outdoor seating for those preferring fresh air. I indulged in a hot chocolate, which was a delightful treat. It had a smooth, rich texture that was both comforting and satisfying. The roll with pistachio was a bit different from what I expected, as the staff mentioned it wasn't overly sweet. While it was okay, I probably wouldn't order it again. The shankarpali was a standout, offering a crispy and flavorful experience. Oklava boasts a diverse menu featuring teas, coffees, a variety of baklava, hot desserts, and bakery items, promising something for everyone. The service was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall pleasant experience. While the cafe offers a lovely ambiance and some delicious treats, the overall experience fell slightly short of exceptional. Nonetheless, it's a charming spot worth checking out for a quick bite or a relaxing break.

This is the cafe to go to if you love anything baklava. They have a wide range of tasty treats and pastry. Their coffee is also good and the quality. I always love Turkish coffee anyway. The only thing of the downside is the place. It is too small. Not enough chairs and tables inside that could accommodate customers. We have to sit outside using other establishments chairs and tables provided for their own customers. Otherwise it’s a good and super chill place to hang out. I would definitely come back when in Palo Alto.
