We've walked past Koy a million times and eaten there a couple of times now. It was one of the last places we hadn't tried on the South Melbourne market strip as we'd always be enticed by Claypots or some of the other places.

The first time we went we opted for different dishes to share and since then we've also had other items too. It's a relaxed place with outdoor seating. It's nice to sit in the sunshine with the free newspapers and enjoy a relaxed weekend brunch or lunch.
The spinach and cheese gozleme is made on premises by an authentically Turkish old lady and it comes with a yoghurt dip. I love the warm doughiness of it. The cheese is barely there though so I'd love it more if there was more of a cheesy flavour. Great bread to dip in sauces and soak up cooking juices though.

The Mantar Dolması - oven baked field mushrooms filled with halloumi cheese, spring onions, dill and spices is one of my favourite dishes as it's well seasoned and yummy. Cheese and mushrooms - what's not to like?
Bıldırcın - quail wrapped in pastrami with pomegranate molasses is like upmarket KFC and pretty tasty.

Kabak Dolması - zucchini boats stuffed withh ricotta, goat’s and parmesan cheese is a nice vegetable dish. Cheese and vegetables - what's not to like?

We've enjoyed it the couple of times we've been here. We have always found service to be friendly enough. Yes they have been forgetful at times and we haven't had water or cutlery but it's corrected pretty quickly and once it's brought to their attention.
