The Flying Carpet is back...again! Finally re-opening after a kitchen fire, the Flying Carpet is back, with a new chef and menu. One of my favorite haunts in Fort Worth when it opened over a decade ago, we were happy to find that it has persevered once again, 3 chefs/menus later. For fans of the Flying Carpet - the menu is different and a bit more expanded and that should warrant a visit regardless. The new menu still has some old favorites, such as the Adana Kabob, which I ordered and which was still awesome. The Wife's Chicken Gyro platter was also delicious. Coupled with fresh baked bread and that relaxing, authentic atmosphere, we are happy to add the Flying Carpet into the rotation again, as should you.

I live near by and have been meaning to check it out for a while--I'm glad I finally did! The atmosphere is cozy, and the service was friendly and attentive, which made for a pleasant experience overall.They start you off with complimentary bread, which is a nice touch. However, the bread is denser than the fluffy pita or naan I'm used to, and it doesn't come with a complimentary dipping sauce. I'd recommend adding a small side of olive oil or hummus to enhance the experience, as the bread on its own felt like it needed a bit more seasoning or salt.For the main course, I shared the Dolma Garden Platter ($15.95), which included dolma (2), hummus, baba ghanoush, and falafel (2). While I didn't try the dolma myself (not my preference), my friend really enjoyed them. The hummus and baba ghanoush were fresh and flavorful, and the falafel was nicely seasoned and not dry--a highlight for me!Still feeling a bit hungry, we ordered the feta cigars (4 for $10.95). They were delicious, but I found them to be on the thinner side, leaving me wanting a bit more substance.One suggestion I'd love to make is expanding the menu to include a halloumi dish or a falafel sandwich option--both would be fantastic additions!Overall, it's a charming spot with tasty food and good service. I'll definitely be back and look forward to trying more items in the future.

Flying Carpet is a Tuekish restaurant on a converted horse one block of Magnolia, on Washington. The service is good, the food is great. We really enjoyed everything we had, the chicken was very very tender and juicy. They serve wine, as far as the other beverages, they're in cans and bottles, or just ice water. I do wish they at least brewed tea, but that won't stop me from going back.

Food = excellent (5 stars) Ambience = beautiful (5 stars); Service= hard working but short handed makes it hard to serve a full restaurant and help people as they walk in the door. ( 3 stars). I'm so glad we ate here food was sooo good (I had the lamb chop special they were well seasoned and tender and the side salad was delicious) and wine was fantastic (we had the special red) And baklava was the best I ever had!! So I will be back. Maybe not on Friday at 7pm.

Patio, patio, patio. This quaint, little wood framed house off of Magnolia is delightful but the patio is so inviting. We really enjoyed the food but the casual atmosphere, where the staff invites you in and then let's you lounge a bit, is a welcomed addition to the Magnolia Street vibe.I loved the BYOB aspect and the cabbage rolls were a win. The pita is the best in town and the baba ghanoush was a stand-out. I wasn't as excited about the spinach pie, it had great flavor but was slightly under baked

Just an update to my visit 15 days ago... this time, there was no service slowness and they were fully staffed. I wasn't to try all of the things, so a much as I loved the Stuffed Cabbage on my first visit, I was eager to try the gyro plate. This lamb gyro meat was hands down the best I've had. For lack of better terms, it was real. (So much gyro may these days is like an amalgam of meat products.) This gyro meat at Flying Carpet was deliciously real. Hubby had the Beef Shish Kebab and thoroughly enjoyed it, too. We also shared the Spinach Pie as an appetizer. It was quite tasty. They've also got an incredible vegetarian section on their menu.

I stopped by for the first time today for lunch. It is very nice and clean café. I like the decor of the place. The server was very nice and friendly and seated me right away when I walked through the door. Being my first time customer, he went over the menu when I asked. I ordered hummus and lamb shish kebabs for my lunch. They also brought baked bread with hummus. Both the hummus and lamb shish kebabs were delicious. I ended the meal with Turkish coffee. I see why it is in a very small cup, it is very strong...good but very strong.
