After being away from Antalia for far too long, we returned with a party of six for dinner. Every dish was expertly prepared, beautifully presented, and simply delicious. Antalia is a casual but elegant establishment with a reasonably quiet atmosphere that allowed us to have good conversation around the table. Service was very attentive Each of us enjoyed our meal, but for me personally, I enjoyed the beef and lamb Adon kebab, which were wonderfully spiced with heat that did not overwhelm the underlying flavors Talia offers a solid selection of vegetarian options. My mouth is literally watering as I remember my meal. Highly recommended. read more

I came to Antalia specifically for their takeout lunch special. The deal includes a two-course lunch box where you choose one entree and one appetizer, and it also comes with Turkish rice, Turkish bread, red cabbage, lettuce, plus both white and hot sauce. The price point was great. I ordered the Turkish meatballs as my entree and tzatiki as my appetizer. They told me the order would take 15 minutes. I was actually considering switching to a different entree while ordering, but I'm glad I didn't since it would've taken longer. When I picked up my food, everything was piping hot. The meatballs were flavorful and satisfying. The tzatziki was fresh and creamy. Perfect alongside the rest of the meal. Overall, if you're looking for a quick, filling, and well priced lunch option. read more

We started with a round of spicy mango margaritas, while not the most Turkish, we ordered a second round. The mixed grill was very tasty. Lamb shish was also delicious. The portions overall were quite small compared to other Turkish restaurants that I've been to in the city. The borek was tasty, but the other appetizers were lack luster as was the rice and side salads with the main. Dessert was good, rice pudding and baklava were terrific but the ice cream portion was lacking. Decent restaurant, not great. Very clean and nicely decorated restaurant but pretty slow service for how empty the place was on a Saturday night. read more

Turkish food is a lot like Greek food. After all, the two countries are not too far at all on a map, sharing a border in fact. The one thing still confuses me. Why do I have stomach issues with one cuisine while being perfectly fine with the other? I do not have an answer for you. What I do have an answer for is the fact this Turkish restaurant serves up fine cuisine with a beautiful looking restaurant to boot. The menu is extensive, but pricey. I ordered way too much food here, but I have to give a restaurant its due. By just ordering one thing is not fair to the experience. Ordering enough gives me enough to decide whether you should stop by. You should. The meats are light but tasty. The spreads are delicious, albeit getting pita should call more than a crunchy herbed bread. Something felt off the entire time I was eating them. The seafood may be the best I have had anywhere in New York. Succulent shrimp in a nice garlic sauce. This tasted right out of the ocean. The pizza appetizer lacks; I do not recommend getting it even if your life depended on it. When it comes to eating Greek once a week, this is up there, even if this is a largely Turkish restaurant. Just make sure it all can stay down long after you leave. read more

Very nice and hospitable staff!! Although my friend and I shared the "mixed grill" (which was a TON of food), I'd say my favorites of the night were all the appetizers and spreads that we ordered. That is a must-try while dining here. The interior has great decor and feels quite spacious which can be uncommon in the city. Kudos to them for making the space feel big despite not having windows in the back. We loved the labneh + beet spread, hummus, and spicy mixed veggies. The complimentary Turkish bread was great to enjoy all the spreads. read more

We stopped by this Mediterranean restaurant after seeing a Broadway show and it did not disappoint. It was a cute and comfortable setting that looked like a fancy dining room. Our server was attentive to our needs. We were served warm bread. I asked for some olive oil to dip my bread and it was delish! Hubby ordered a Turkish soda which tasted like Sprite with a bubble gum flavor and I had a glass of red sangria that was nice and strong. Our entrees were quite delicious and full of flavor! I definitely would go back! read more

Came here for lunch on a weekday with a reservation. The place was pretty empty when I initially entered, but eventually started to get busier. Not sure how packed it gets for dinner or during the weekends, but would recommend making a reservation regardless. They served us complimentary warm bread to start, which I enjoyed. I ordered the falafel entree. It was more filling than I expected, so I couldn't finish it. But it was absolutely delicious!! I loved the house salad that it came with. Service was wonderful. Interior is very clean and cute. Bathroom is clean as well. Would definitely recommend this place! read more

I jadore this restaurant. It's beautiful inside. From the lighting to the sconces, to the marble bathroom. Greatest customer service. Its been on my bucket list to go eat here for years. The housemade Turkish bread is the best bread in nyc. The olive oil and seasoning was superb. The seasonings here are fresh. I ordered hummus that was vibrant and fresh . I ordered red beet spread. This was my favorite. Creamy and beautiful. Spicy veggie dip. That was bold and mild spice. Very good. My friends favorite was the red lentil ball (vegan). The flavors and textures amazing. We ordered the iskender lamb kabob and chicken shish kabobs. Nice warm pita. Juicy fresh meats. Outstanding. We ended with the best dessert rice pudding with a burnt creme brule. Highly recommend and tea service. The lunch special is $27.95 and worth every penny. The white sangria is the best i ever had and watermelon margarita delicious. Tasted so refreshing. Everything is so colorful. Reminded me of Istanbul. read more

This is a gem of a restaurant that is conveniently located in Manhattan near public transit, which means there is no excuse not to check out this place. I enjoyed everything, starting with the affordable, but creative and visual, mocktails, such as the blue nectar, at $6, to red beets spread with their soft, yet toasted and seasoned, bread to soak up any sauces on your plate with or without tzatziki or yogurt suaces. I ended with the gigantic entree with iskender kebab (gyro), which serves as least two or more hungry diners. I'd give it five stars had I been given a chance to take the rest of the bowl of beet spread home before they cleared the table given my heart ached that it went to waste instead of being savored at home given how delicious it was to counter the spicy veggie dip and some red sauces. The bus boys were so anxious to clean our plates off the table that I wished they asked before removing some of them =D The service was exceptional where our waiter was responsive, efficient, and accommodating. He was definitely trained well with customer service given the ample refills of water and positive mindset to resolve a misunderstanding for a customer, who changed his order in our table for eight. I'll definitely be back for more to try the rest of the tasty menu, full of Turkish and Mediterranean appetizers and dishes =D read more

Came here for dinner with a friend on a rainy evening. The interior was lovely with cute decor and a cozy ambiance. I really wanted to try the pre fixe menu, while my friend wasn't as hungry. Thankfully, this place doesn't require the whole party to partake in the pre fixe, so we were both able to get what we wanted. For my appetizer, I chose fried calamari, served with creamy, savory tartar sauce. This was delicious, and a generous portion. The breading was perfectly crispy, light, with yummy seasoning. Salmon in Vine Leaves was my main course, and I found this to be uniquely prepared. The salmon was marinated, then chargrilled and wrapped in grape leaves. This came with greens, carrots, cabbage, as well as tomatoes. The salmon was quite tasty, tender, flaky, and full of great flavor. Grape leaves were not my favorite, but seemed to work well with the salmon. The dessert that came with the Pre Fixe menu was Rice Pudding. I also got to try my friend's Pistachio Baklava. I preferred the Baklava, which was irresistibly crunchy, sweet, with plenty of nuts and syrupy honey. The Rice Pudding was cinnamony and cooked to just the right consistency. Service was solid. Our waiter was friendly and on top of it, making sure everything came out in a timely manner. We also stayed until closing time, and were not rushed at all. I would return to try the Pachanga Borek and Lamb Chops. read more

Really good Mediterranean food close to Bryant Park. Came here for a quick lunch but it still felt like a nice sit down meal. Ordered the lunch special of baba ghanoush ($2 extra), labneh, falafel and chicken platters. Both were really delicious, and we had a short time window to eat but the staff brought the food out super quick. The baba ghanoush was my favorite. So fresh, especially with the bread. The rest of the food was a little salty for my taste but paired with the rice and salad it all evened out. Extra star for the service! read more

I tried the 3-course prix-fixe menu ($44.95) at Antalya New York City and was really impressed. You get an appetizer, main, and dessert and the portions are generous. I had the Iskender, and my friend ordered the salmon in vine leaves. Both dishes were flavorful and well-cooked. We were already full by the end, and dessert just made it even better Overall, a very satisfying and authentic experience read more

Had a bad experience at a restaurant nearby and was looking for something kid friendly. The waitstaff were very nice and the food was excellent. Ordered the dip trio - $27 was insane for the portions, but hey, it's Midtown. Also, they didn't serve any bread/pita with the dip, just the bread that they gave us when they gave us the water (more on that later). So, we had to pay to order another Pita for the Table. Ridiculous, considering it probably costs them less than $1 to just include the pita with the $30 dip I just ordered. (lost a star) Food was excellent. Ordered the lamb burger. It was big and juicy, bun was on point. Wife ordered falafel, which she said was excellent, and much better than the falafel we order in Northport, Long Island. Food - 5/5 Service - 5/5 Price - 0/5 Why two stars? Lost another two stars for charging $7.95 for bottled water. $7.95? For WATER? Are you kidding? This isn't just high pricing--it's flat-out price gouging. I get it--markups happen. But this? This is beyond reasonable. I always opt for bottled if you ask tap or bottled. But charging $7.95 for water is a CHEAP TRICK. read more

Recently came for a lunch! Got their lunch special and have to say their portions and flavors really hit the spot! The bread that comes with the appetizer was tremendous and I cannot stop thinking about it. I was surprised it wasn't quite as crowded as I expected (maybe given everyone was out shopping) but that was good for me. Service was good too. Orders: - Chicken Adana + Hummus (lunch special): Delicious and full of flavor. Chicken is a little bit spicy which was nice. Hummus was great - Turkish Meatball + Babagonoush (lunch special): Meatballs were very tasty! Also one of the best babagonoush I've ever had - Sides that came with the entree plate (cabbage salad, red cabbage, rice): All great - Bread: Special shoutout to the bread that comes with the dips! Chewy and crispy and flavorful. Great for the hummus and babagonoush Already planning my next trip here! read more

Great food! Really attentive servers! The ambiance was nice, but the place was very hot. It was a hot summer nyc day but the AC even being on didn't do much. I was definitely sweating through my meal. The food makes up for this though as I really enjoy my meal. We also ordered a Greek salad as well. The chicken was so flavorful and tender and the lamb chops were Devine. Loved the pickled cabbage and the rice was really tasty too. Will be back maybe on a winter day. read more

I was trying my best to like this spot. Was sat down fast as there was practically no one there, maybe 3 tables max. Ordered the Turkish meatballs. Portion size is ok. They accidentally sent me a liver plate and it was nice of them to comp it. I normally wouldn't eat liver but it was delicious. 3 stars for service. Once food came never saw the server come back. I didn't even get my water refilled once, had to ask for it once my meal was finished. Not busy enough for that to be excused. Food is good service could be better. read more

A cute and cozy place with great service! We had a reservation for 2 at 6:00 on a Friday night and the place was pretty empty. The vibe was still cozy though and it seemed like the other tables were enjoying their food. We started off with the Turkish coffee martinis which were so decadent and delicious (and STRONG!). We then ordered the beet and feta appetizer, followed by the beef over eggplant and sautéed lamb. Both entrees were very rich and flavorful. The free bread was also delicious! It came out warm and the crust had a perfect crunch. If you check in on Yelp you get a free dessert of the day which happened to be rice pudding for us. V yummy! Not too sweet but rich enough to satisfy us at the end of our meal. read more

Well.. this remains for tourists. Couple blocks from times square so thats what we get. The eggplant (not baba ganoush) dish was excellent, the hummus was bland, the grape leaves were home made so i won't bash them but they were full of cinnamon which is unusual and i did not like. The $17 app containing all three meze was quite small. I had to order feta borek to add to it (granted i had not eaten all day) but the borek were soft and not very good. The waiters were all amazing and kind as Turkish people usually are! read more

At this restaurant, we tried hummus, haydari, stuffed grape leaves, lentil balls, salad, İskender, cocktails, and baklava with ice cream. For me, the hummus and stuffed grape leaves were flavors you could probably find anywhere, but not every place makes haydari this delicious. My friend felt the same way about the lentil balls. We also loved how fresh their salads were. But the real surprise came with the İskender. As a Turk, I had never been able to find the authentic taste of döner meat in America but I think that just changed. Its crispiness and flavor really amazed me. And then came dessert: baklava filled with pistachios, paired with rich Maraş ice cream and strawberries a true feast Special thanks to our waiter Ali and the owner of the restaurant for their warm hospitality and great conversation.

Overall this was a very pleasant experience! Upon entering the waiters gave us the option to choose where we'd like to sit and attended us very quickly and kindly. As for food, we ordered a chicken kebab and a falafel and hummus platter and they were delicious. Even my grandmother liked it and she's quite the picky eater. The drinks were also very nice and decorated lovely. Throughout our experience the music was very nice and traditional and the decor is very sea side-esque, the room is perfectly bright where you can actually read the menu unlike other places where it's too dark. The servers constantly checked on us and even gave us a piece of well toasted pita upon my grandmothers request that hers wasn't toasty enough- this wasn't charged and was very kind as well. read more
