About Almaz Cafe

Quality, from the beginning

From the beginning, quality has been at the heart of everything we do. We carefully select our ingredients and take pride in preparing our dishes with care, passion and respect for traditional Turkish cuisine. Our aim is not simply to serve a meal, but to preserve the authentic flavours and traditions that have made Turkish food loved and enjoyed by generations.

Tradition, kept current

Over the years, we have continued to evolve while remaining true to our roots. Our menu offers a wide variety of dishes, including traditional Turkish favourites, kebabs, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, ensuring that our guests can find food suited to their individual tastes and needs.

Onehunga Mall

The Real Turkish Taste.

After more than three decades of serving Onehunga and the wider community, we are proud that our authentic flavours, consistent quality and warm hospitality continue to bring our customers back. The trust and support of our local community have been an important part of our journey, and we are committed to earning that trust with every dish we serve.

Today, Almaz Cafe stands as a place where tradition meets quality, and authentic Turkish cuisine is served with pride.
