"If you are looking to dine in a modest yet delicious place, then your destination should be BOL-AŞ. Don't be deceived by the appearance of the restaurant! This is truly a delicious local restaurant... During our vacation in Bolu, we stumbled upon BOL-AŞ Restaurant online while looking for options for pide and soupy dishes. Despite being a group of 30 family members, we were warmly welcomed even though we didn't have a reservation. The menu at the restaurant focuses on soupy dishes and pide, with doner kebab served on Tuesdays and Fridays. On that Sunday, we enjoyed et suyu (meat soup), yayla soup, lamb stew, eggplant kebab, beans, rice, and compote, all of which were incredibly tasty, served in generous portions, and priced unbelievably low. The service was warm and friendly, just like at home... For example, when we ordered dessert, the cutlery arrived for each person at the table without having to ask. Bread and water were unlimited and free. The traditional Bolu dish, lamb stew, featured tender, flavorful pieces of meat falling off the bone. The eggplant kebab was made with a whole piece of lamb meat wrapped in eggplant, unlike most places that use meatballs. We also tried their minced meat and cheese pides, with thin, crispy crust, abundant toppings, and flavorful butter making for a delicious bite. The rice pudding and bread pudding with buffalo cream were simply magnificent... We strongly recommend you give it a try."
