Among the Turkish restaurants in Cliffside Park, this is the one we frequent for weekday lunch !!! Used to be cheaper but now your lunch special at $18. Such a great deal for sour or salad, a dip, and the main dish. We had shepherd salad, hummus and spicy veggie mix, with veggie casserole and chicken shish. Can't go wrong with 3 course meal for $18. read more

Beyoglu Grill - Amazing Branzino and I told them to take the head off - Mediterranean Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

I've been coming to this restaurant for about 10 years. The servers are always very kind and attentive. The music and lighting of the restaurant is very cozy and not too loud. The food is what keeps me coming back. The Adana kebab and spicy vegetable are my favorite. The side of the red cabbage salad and pepper that comes with the Adana kebab compliments the lamb Adana. The spicy vegetable is a must and pairs well with the complimentary bread that is served. The red lentil soup is warm and a rich velvety texture that is perfect for a cold day. The lunch special is also a great deal. Will be coming back again soon. read more

I loved this place! I had passed by here so many times and I just recently decided to try it for date night. Firstly, I was amazed by how inviting the place felt, as well as the people. Our host and waitress was very kind and attentive! She sat us at a perfect spot by the window, made recommendations, and ensured our dinner experience was a good one with her positive energy! Now let's talk food We started with the babaganoush; it was delicious. The bread that was served was also super tasty and fresh. I then tried the lamb shish with yogurt which was also pretty amazing, BUT I did end up feeling full quickly so I didn't get to fully enjoy. Will I be returning here? Absolutely! read more

I really wanted to give the Beyoglu Grill 3.5 Stars. Street parking & municipal parking in lower level of high-rise building next door. Simple but nice decorations. Friendly, Authentic Turkish staff. Good to very good versions of the Turkish classics: adana, kebobs, hummus, Shepherd's salad. The MEZZE PLATTER which is a combination of appetizers platter. Hummus, babaganoush, lebni, spicy vegetable, eggplant with sauce is enough for 4 and a great way to try many of the cold apps at once. Prices are comparable to other Turkish restaurants.

Excellent service? Check. Tasty food? Check. Great atmosphere? Check. Price? Check. I've ordered pick up from this restaurants several times before, however this was my first time dinning in; food was excellent, our party ordered the mixed grill platter, Baba Ganoosh, lintel soup and Kunafeh -- none disappointed - the gyro was extremely good - tasty, and rightly spiced. Overall great experience, it's not your Saturday night date restaurant, it's an everyday family restaurant or your Saturday night drink and chat place! read more

I had a very simple ask. The grubhub delivery driver only speaks Turkish and hasn't delivered my order. Can you call him and let him know? Response: I called, and he didn't pick up. What do you want me to do. It's not my problem. We have given him the food. What do you expect me to do? Reaction: how could someone in the service industry be so irresponsible, so uncaring, so unhospitable? I would never go to this restaurant in person or order from them again. I simply expect you to call him again!!! read more

Mixed grill platter and appetizer platter was enough food for the two of us to have two meals! The mixed grilled meat platter was served over very buttery rice and roasted tomato. The appetizer platter had six dips and we were glad to try all of them. However our favorite was by far the the Lebni - it was out of this world. Also came with some lovely bread. read more

Beyoglu Grill - Mixed grill platter and appetizer platter - Mediterranean Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

Nice interior with nice decorations. We went on a Tues night about 6pm so wasn't busy. It was nice that there was municipal parking in lower level of high-rise building next door and no charge after 6pm. Our dinner was marred by very slow service. There was only 1 waitress plus a person bringing out food ( who didn't look comfortable doing anything but bringing out food). Food also seemed to be coming out of the kitchen very slowly which is unfortunate because the food was good. Our dinner on a not-busy Tues took 2 hours. Each table gets a basket of warm bread with olive oil. We tried the cold hummus ( they have a hot hummus as well). It was good. You do not get pita with the cold hummus, we used the bread from basket which was fine. I order the gyro plate and my husband ordered the Adana with yogurt (hot) . We had a small kunefe for dessert. Food was tasty and reasonably priced. I normally would definitely return but seeing other comments about slow service will make me do the tradeoff in my head of whether it was good enough to be sitting for 1.5 hours just waiting on food or someone to come by to pick up plates. Time will tell. read more

I came here with friends and if the food is okay but the service is terrible like what I just went through you have to post. THE SERVER WAS INCREDIBLY RUDE! HE would get annoyed when we asked for water or more sauce and would say omg really and then we would say what, he would be like nevermind. I worked as a server and there is no reason to have an attitude. Please avoid this place and take your money to anywhere. Service is so important and restaurants close out when they miss this out. PLEASE FIRE THIS GUY, glad I took a picture!!! read more

Very good, very fresh food. Came in on a whim passing by. Food took a while to come out but the hot bread they gave as a prelude was delicious and I liked that they gave a jug of water for the table. Waitress was overall pretty attentive and asked if we wanted more bread (is that ever really a question though?) The manti was fresh and tasty, loved the yogurt sauce on top, and the mixed grill was great too. The meats were seasoned well and the shaved lamb as part of the mixed grill was buttery smooth and delicious. Also got a side salad that went great with the hot bread and gave a big portion. Would definitely come back if in the area. read more

Consistently great good, service and ambiance The staff is friendly and the restaurant is inviting! A great place for a large group.

Called this place to order take out for my family who came over to see my newborn daughter... I try to feed my hungry family who wanted chicken chops and lamb gyro more importantly. .. we called near 130 and were to lam gyro won't be available until 3. Tried to call back and then was told won't be ready till 4. 430.... f out of here for this B.S... 2nd call I made near 230 to try to replace the order, lady had the nerve to say, I just work here, I am not the owner. Excuses. .. get on the same dam page with your team / ownership. read more

Excellent food and large portions. Service was friendly and professional. Ambiance is lovely.

I come here almost every weekend when visiting my mom, their food is amazing and the service is even better. The waiters and waitress treat my mom and I like family and already know our order as soon as we walk in. The food is very clean and only place my mother trusts to eat outside of her kitchen. She gets the chicken shish every time and loves it. The lentil soup is amazing with just the right amount of spices. The salad tastes great! The ambiance is classy and doesn't feel like we're sitting in the middle of a busy Main Street. They also have parking which helps! read more

Grabbed dinner for Mother's Day this past Sunday. Ordered 4 entrees and 2 appetizers. The octopus salad was so delicious, will order 2 next time. I plan on going here on weekends, prices are good and not overly expensive . read more

I'll start by saying I eat here several times a week, and for a long time. I'd give the kitchen a 5 star, but basically half my orders from this place have been wrong or missing something and that's on the forward facing end of the business. Foods great. Always check your food or your gonna be missing something. If only y'all were professional :( They're also unlikely to pick up your call so I can't even begin to fathom how much business they've lost just by not answering the phone. read more

One of my favorite places to go to because of the lunch special!! Ive never had anything else here other than the lunch special and I always get the same dish, which is the Adana kebab and you get a soup or salad (the chicken soup is better than the lentil IMO) and on days where I would get the salad over the soup, the shepherds salad (tomatoes and cucumbers) is so refreshing. You also get an appetizer and all the ones I've tried are good but my favorite is the eggplant with sauce. As for the entry, I usually don't like lamb because of the gamey taste but you don't get that here. It comes with rice, which is so buttery and delicious along with pickled red cabbage and a grilled tomato. All this for $11!! read more

My brother and his girlfriend had been raving about their first visit to Beyoglu Grill, so they decided to introduce me to it the other night when we were in need of a dinner destination.  We arrived just under an hour before the kitchen closed and were nervous about how that would affect the quality of the experience.  Well, the service was friendly and quick, without making us feel rushed. We were seated at a spacious table in the casual, Mediterranean-inspired dining room and decided to start with some appetizers.  First, we ordered a plate of smooth and garlicky Babaganoush, which was the perfect topping for their sesame seed-covered, doughy toast.  Since there were 3 of us, we also shared the Octopus Salad entree as a starting course.  Shredded lettuce was topped with onions and tender char-grilled slices of octopus tentacles.  The simple balsamic vinegar and olive oil dressing added just a hint of extra flavor, which was all that was needed.  We then moved onto our main courses, and though my companions both reordered the Lamb Shish that they had enjoyed previously, I opted for the Chicken Shish.  I wound up making the better decision, as my poultry was well-seasoned and moist, while the lamb was flavorful but tough and chewy.  In fact, the couple said that the lamb had been much better prepared on their initial dining experience, so the late hour might have been the culprit for this misstep.  Both grill platters were served over thin flatbread and were accompanied by a red cabbage slaw, singular grilled shishito pepper, and mound of buttery rice, all of which I found light and terrific. Unfortunately, my brother and his girlfriend were not as enthused about their second experience at Beyoglu Grill, but I gladly return...though doing so at an earlier hour would be a better plan. read more

Went for Weekday Lunch Special Food - 5/5. Chicken soup had a delicious broth that becomes even more fragrant when you add the lemon. Bread had good bite to them and the sun-dried tomato dip they came with had a nice pesto consistency. Babaganoush was smooth with good seasoning. Adana kebab had great char on them and the meat was very juicy. The red cabbage slaw had just the right amount of lemon on them for a refreshing and crunchy side. Rice was fluffy and buttery. Service - 4/5. Friendly and fast. Value - 5/5. The lunch specials run at $11 for three courses. Food is delicious and the portion sizes are nice. Great lunch location! Parking - Municipal Garage (Free), Street (Metered) read more

I went to this restaurant with a couple of my friends for dinner Saturday night . I have never had a worse experience with service . My friend asked for a ketchup and the waiter literally said omg, clearly sounded annoyed . I wish that was the worst part . As my friends food was being served another waiter automatically brought us the check along with the food. We let all of this go and even left a great tip, as we did not want to make a big deal out of these two incidents . As we are stepping out my friend is putting on her jacket, and the waiter asks if she isn't going to leave . The worse part is yet to be mentioned . My friend posted a review on yelp and now she literally has someone threatening her. See the picture I attached . Please stay away from this plave. read more

Beyoglu Grill - Server threatening my friend - Mediterranean Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

The service was absolutely terrible. They were very rude, we were rushed (waiter gave us the bill in the middle of our entree - Didn't even offer us desert!) They used VERY rude comments when we requested ketchup. The waiter commented, "OMG really?" We said thank you when they gave it to us and the waiter gave us an EXTREMELY dirty look as if he was disgusted. We are a group that ALWAYS tips 20% so we gave 18% instead. As we were putting on our coats to leave, we had a waiter tell my friend, "Can you put your coat on faster?" PLEASE read the comments further below. My friend also just got threatened by one of their servers because she wrote an HONEST review about them! If you have any questions you can ask us. We HIGHLY recommend you stay away from this place. Not worth your time! read more

Beyoglu Grill - Message sent from their staff. - Mediterranean Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

Beyoglu has incredible Turkish cuisine. I usually order their Chicken Shish or Lentil Soup and both are very tasty. Their chicken shish is marinated well and it comes with basmati rice and cabbage. Their basmati rice is my favorite, I actually wish they'd put more on the plate haha. The lentil soup is outstanding! Definitely recommend. read more

Worst customer service ever drove from New York to try me and a friend and we both wanted to order 2 entrees to try things out and take the leftover food they gave us ultimatum to sit on a small table in the middle of the restaurant or nothing because they saving the other tables for 3-4 people tried to explain even if I agree the food will never fit he was rude and we ended up leaving going back to New York horrible customer service before we even order read more

First time and won't be the last time. Walk in and the nice aroma hits you. 4 people sitting at a table for 6, nice and comfy. We shared: Coban SHEPHERD SALAD - LARGE, fabulous eggplant fry, delicious; hummus VERY GOOD a few other things, all good I shared a fabulous pasta & veggie dish, which I will have again. SO GOOD. No dessert since we were full and wanted to watch the debate. Nice staff. GREAT DINNER!!! read more

My wife and ordered takeout from here; what I expecting was way better than I thought it would be. The hunkar begendi was layered with sauce, meat, hummus and cheese. The combination worked very well together. Our Adana with yogurt came with grilled lamb meat the shape of being on a skewer. The meat itself had a great grilled flavor that did not taste artificial or over done. The buttered rice included with both dishes was awesome. read more

This establish is by far one of my favorites. Not only is the ambiance really nice but the food is delicious. Whether you order at the restaurant or order from home they go above and beyond.. I ordered from home and we received the order in a timely manner... they gave us more than enough bread unlike some places that like to skimp out.. and they even gave us a mask that stated "stay safe". I mean if that isn't caring for the community and going above and beyond, i dont know what is. read more

We came here Sunday afternoon after I read all the comments here. I do not know who you guys talking about server, but I got amazing service. Melike was our server today; she was all about smiling and answering our questions with patience. We were sad that could not eat iskender bc of shawarma is not ready during that time of the day which makes a lot of sense. But now we had a reason to come back while we are around. We love what we got, only kibbeh was not their best job, other than that we are thankful delicious tasty plates. Thank you so much Melike, keep up with your amazing job! read more

I love the food is great food and great prices. Service is really good. We have easy parking around there.

Went there for a family member's bday dinner. We had early dinner so the restaurant was empty but our table. Which brought us good services.

Overall,there's nothing remarkable or bad. read more

Great lunch ! I loved how fresh everything tasted. The hummus was perfect, and the waitress was a sweetheart. She suggested the eggplant appetizer because I wanted to try something new and it was delicious, perfectly made and very tasty. The entrees me and my girlfriend got were also very well composed and for lunch at the price point this is a very good deal. The rice was really good and the ground chicken that I had was a bit spicy but very bold in flavor. Thank you Beyoglu your waitress rocks!!! read more

Beyoglu opened up in my neighborhood several months ago. I was a little afraid to try it. I wasn't really a fan of Turkish food before. I hadn't ever tried it and there was a short-lived Turkish dinner in this location before Beyglu opened up. I tried that place and it really turned me off Turkish food. I tried Beyoglu and the suggestion of my boyfriend. I am so glad we did. The place was a complete surprise. The interior is beautiful, the food delicious, and the service spectacular. I had cubed chicken with chili peppers. I don't know the Turkish name on the menu. It was delicious and delightfully spicy. The dish was accompanied by rice and a nice, hot pepper. Prices are a bit on the high side, but it is definitely worth the price for such a delightful experience and really superb food. read more

Came here on a Thursday night ~6:30pm. Only party in the restaurant, with several people picking up take out. Eventually the restaurant filled with a few others Our waiter was extremely friendly, polite and accommodating- he was happy to make suggestions about the menu, share a bit of his culture and we were able to bring our own wine at no charge. We ordered bronzino, octopus, lamb shish, and an order of hummus. Everything was perfectly seasoned, flavorful, fresh and generously portioned. However- our food did take quite a while to be prepared. We were in no rush so it was not at all an issue, but if you were in a hurry it may be something to consider. Would definitely return! read more
