    Deep fried beef rolls (Börek)
    Monica P.

    Fourteen of us had dinner recently before going to the theater. We had 5pm reservations. My husband and I ordered one of the appetizer specials, deep fried beef rolls (Börek). They were excellent! I had the shrimp and beef kebabs that came with white rice and a house salad (sort of like a slaw). I ordered the beef medium-rare, but should have ordered rare. The meat was still pretty tender. I liked the salad. My husband ordered the vegetable delight, which was an eggplant dish served with pita bread. Everything was very good and we had great service.

    Vegetarian Combo

    I was looking for a restaurant to have lunch. I found this spot on yelp. The waiter was part of the family that owned it and was very friendly. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I ordered the vegetarian combo. The inside is small, but very cozy and comfortable.

    Chicken kabobs
    Melissa G.

    I've fluctuated between a three and a four, but since we'd go back to eat here, I went with a four. The food was good, and we love that they had four Turkish wines to choose from. We ordered the Angora and it was so smooth and velvety. The hummus was extremely good and the pita amazing. I ordered the chicken kabobs with Jasmine rice and veggies. The rice was delicious, the veggies was Cole slaw but warm; it was good and a pretty large serving. The chicken was too dry but thankfully came with a great sauce. My husband ordered the surf and turf which was lamb chops and mahi mahi. The mahi was fantastic, but the lamb was cooked medium-well rather than medium. The server, John, was nice enough but a bit abrupt and I had to keep asking for my water glass to be refilled, which I find annoying. It was $72 for a bottle of wine, two apps, and two entrees which isn't too bad.

    Side salad
    Caitlin S.

    This is one hard restaurant to eat at! Current takeout only, only on Friday and Saturday. They're also about to shut down for a month or so for summer break, so when we realized we didn't have Friday dinner plans and didn't want to go out, we realized we could finally give them a try. I ordered the grape leaves and the chargrilled mahi with rice and a side salad. My husband got the Turkish Patties, rice, and side salad. I do not know what magical seasoning they put in that salad dressing, but my mouth is literally watering thinking about it. I could drink that dressing. The grape leaves were pretty good - there was a spice in them that I couldn't place and don't think is typically in other grape leaves I've had. I could do without this mystery spice. Rice was good (maybe slightly over cooked). The mahi had good flavor, but I think i should've ordered a sauce or something to go with it. It was kind of strange on its own. My husband was a little let down by the patties - nothing super special about them I guess. I will definitely be back for that side salad (who am I) and am excited to try some of the other dishes on the menu.

    Lamb chops

    Chicken Kebab
    Candy V.

    Flew in from Miami, seemed like a good spot for lunch, was not disappointed at all. Food was spot on, flavors were super delicious. I had chicken kebab with house salad, the dressing amazing, hubby had falafel I believe that was fried hummus inside. I almost ate his lunch and mine lol. Definitely recommend.

    The Turkish coffee is yummy!

    It was good years back. It's not now. I have learned to make my own delicious Turkish food. There is a book Zaytinya by José Andrés.

    The falafle was very dry and hard. Eggplant dish was bland. My friend liked his fish. I do not plan on returning.

($40) They served us spoiled crab (smelled like ammonia) that was immediately swarmed by flies. Indoors. The woman who sat us pushed alcohol on us hardcore. Makes sense now. We literally said "Nah, we have to drive" and she openly pushed harder and encouraged drinking and driving. Terrible sales tactic. Terrible ethics. The only positive is the waitress who immediately gave us a refund, no questions asked. It's concerning that she wasn't surprised, but still. You'd think a beachside restaurant would serve fresh seafood. Edible, at least. This is a restaurant impossible candidate, no question. Insane.

Everyone who came with me was very happy with their meals as well. My partner got the prime rib dip and loved it. Overall, I had a blast and would definitely recommend dining here.
