If you're looking for the very best, truly authentic Turkish food, you absolutely must try the food…read moreat Sumak Restaurant, the food is so good! This was our first time here and Ahmet, our server, took great care of us. We weren't familiar with all the dishes on the menu, but he took his time going over the menu with us, made great recommendations on dishes to try, and just provided us with great service overall. We started our lunch with two glasses of red wine from Turkey and the wine was truly spectacular. It was light yet full of aroma and flavor and went perfectly with our meal. Highly recommend trying a glass of wine you can't find anywhere else on a menu. We ordered the Turkish Pozza from the lunch menu to share and it was one of the best dishes I've ever had. It was truly one of a kind and I'll be back just for this dish, it was so good. Super thin, perfectly crispy pizza, topped with finely ground beef, onions, tomatoes, and parsley it was so full of flavor it was absolutely delicious. For lunch, the pizza was only $10 too, what a great price for a truly special dish. All I have to say is, try it, you won't be disappointed! For our meal we ordered the chicken shish kabob served with rice and it was also very good. The chicken was a little charred which I really liked. We also ordered a side of asparagus to go with our meal and it was delicious as well. For desert I usually stick to Baklava since it's one of my favorites but our server really recommended the homemade Kunefe and the Turkish Mariah Ice Cream and told us we had to try them together so we decided to try something different. The deserts came out topped with a little bit of pistachio and they were also one of the best deserts I've ever had. They should be served together on the menu because our server was right they went perfectly together. The ice cream was special in of itself, I've never had ice cream made from goat milk, but it was so good, you have to try it as well. It had a thicker, more stretchy texture to it, than regular ice cream and wasn't as sweet which I loved and it was just absolutely amazing. We didn't even know it was made from goat milk till after we tried it, I'm so happy we did. The Kunefe was really good as well, it arrived warm, and the crispy shredded phyllo dough was coated in sweet syrup and went perfectly with the ice cream. Perfectly balancing each other. Highly recommend. Overall, I was really impressed with the food at Sumak Restaurant and I look forward to returning another day soon!

The mixed platter was really good. Each of us at the table had our own favorite dip. My favorite was the yellow, and my girlfriend enjoyed the white one. My girlfriend loves hummus, but said that this hummus wasn't anything special. My girlfriend got the manti, and felt that there was too much yogurt on the meal. It's dumplings however, my girlfriend and I couldn't really taste the beef in the dumplings. The kebab wasn't anything extraordinary. The portion size and rice were good. I've had better Turkish food, but this place is good for a one time visit in my opinion.

Dinner at Alacati Mediterranean Restaurant…read more Had the best time visiting Alacati Mediterranean Restaurant for dinner with my daughter! We had such a wonderful experience. The service was great, the atmosphere was lovely, and the food was absolutely delicious. The restaurant offers Turkish and Greek-inspired Mediterranean cuisine, featuring grilled meats, fresh seafood, and handmade mezze. We started with drinks a Cosmo and a Mango Margarita.the Char-Grilled Octopus as an appetizer, and it was delicious! For our main course, we shared the Mixed Grill, which included lamb chops, meat patties, chicken, and Adana, served with grilled vegetables and Orzo Pilav. Everything was flavorful, tender, and perfectly prepared. We also had the Lahmacun, topped with ground meat and finely chopped vegetables--so delicious and full of flavor! Of course, we had to finish with dessert! The Kazandibi was silky and creamy, with a beautiful caramelized base and delicate hints of mastic and rose water. The perfect way to end our meal! Overall, we had an amazing dinner and enjoyed every bite. It was a wonderful evening with my daughter, and we will definitely be back to try more of the delicious dishes on the menu!

We came on a Sunday evening, and surprisingly, the place was completely empty--not a single customer inside. Honestly, I would have left, but my husband was too hungry. We both ordered the "Delight Mix," which is supposed to be a variety of meats. Unfortunately, the meat didn't even taste like meat, and everything was covered in what seemed like barbecue sauce. That was especially disappointing because when you think of Middle Eastern cuisine, those kinds of sauces just aren't typical or authentic. Overall, it was a very underwhelming experience.

The inside is cozy and cute, waiters friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, and food was timely. We had the Greek salad with gyro meat which definitely exceeded my expectations. The ingredients were so fresh, the dressing was simple with lemon, olive oil, and seasoning and was the perfect amount, and the gyro meat super flavorful and juicy. We also had the chicken wrap with fries. 10/10. The sangria was not too sweet and had tons of fresh berries in it! Can't wait to return. Our new favorite Mediterranean spot in the neighborhood!

I came here because 4.8 stars and nearly 2,000 reviews usually mean somebody in the kitchen is…read moredoing something right. So I walked in expecting at least one moment that justified the noise. It never came. The mixed mezze platter landed first, and that was the first bad sign. It felt store-bought, flat, forgettable, missing that rough, honest, made-in-house character that gives these kinds of places life. The pita was fine. Nothing offensive. Nothing worth thinking about again. Then came the lamb gyro platter. The meat was too greasy, and the rest was just there, filling space on the plate. Not a disaster. Not a crime. Just the kind of meal that reminds you of those late-night kebab spots people hit after too many drinks and low standards. I like those places for what they are. But when the bill climbs past 20 dollars, the rules change. Service was good. The atmosphere had that familiar Miami Beach decorative polish, enough to make the place look better than it eats. And to be fair, the menu is big enough that I would try something else before writing it off completely. But based on this meal, 4.8 stars feels wildly generous.

We've been hitting up Mediterranean restaurants like nobody's business on this leg of our spring…read morebreak, in part because of our proximity to many, and in part because my progeny and I are currently obsessed with babaganoush in its many variations. For this particular dinner, we were also focused on finding a truly vegetarian friendly restaurant where we could take our dear friends. Kabobji was a wonderful choice for vegetarians, omnivores, and carnivores alike. It's a large restaurant with plenty of booths and large tables for gathering with friends and family. Someone I suspect to be an owner was working hard alongside his wait staff and displayed a sense of genuine hospitality. Above all, the restaurant has a rock solid kitchen. The falafel ($13.99 / 5 pieces) here were ****STELLAR****!!! They're shaped like Indian medu vada (fried with a hole in the middle), probably for the same reason: to allow as much of the surface to fry to that perfect golden crisp as possible. And Kabobji's falafel were, in fact, awesomely crisp and well textured, made from soaked chickpeas in the traditional style, perfectly sized, nuanced and subtle in flavor -- some of the best we can remember having. (For reference, we love Nish Nush and Tanoreen for falafel in NYC -- and I think our neighborhood must be one of the major international epicenters for falafel.) Also excellent: the baba ghannouj ($10.99 for the small size), just a bit chunky, enriched with a lot of tahini, a moderate amount of garlic, a touch of lemon. This is how we like to make it at home. The vegetable ghallaba platter ($20.99) was simply made with thinly sliced onions and bell peppers, a small amount of zucchini, I think, and a touch of tomato. I would've loved to have had a spritz of lemon or sprinkle of sumac for a more acidic component, perhaps a little less onion. Note that this dish works better as a main course when accompanied by something protein-y like hummus, but it was pleasant to eat alongside our other orders. A convive, who went with the mixed shawarma platter ($27.99), found it to be a generous portion size and enjoyed it, especially with a side of well composed fattoush salad (+$5.99 to upgrade). Beef shish kebab ($14.99) and lamb shawarma ($15.99) wraps were both excellent and moist, a good balance of protein and vegetable. I didn't try them, but the "cheese pies" ($12.99) turned out to be pitas covered with a large amount of melty white cheese that some young children might enjoy as pizza. (Mine probably would've found them to be "too cheesy," but they're mutants.) They came three to an order. When you dine in, they bring a big basket of warm pita / pida to the table -- quite a generous touch!! I think it's house made and of course went beautifully with our food. Bottom line: GREAT FALAFEL! Great, low-key, family-friendly vibe. Good for vegetarians and non-vegs. Go.

For example, the Doner comes with lettuce, tomato, cabbage, onion. I select "No Onion" and "Extra Cabbage" check-boxes. The receipt in the app (and what shows on DoorDash - their delivery partner) matches what I selected. Then upon delivery the receipt stapled to the bag says "Doner Kebab - Onion - Extra Cabbage" and the food only has onion and cabbage - nothing else. Everything I ordered with "No Onion" checked came with 0 other standard toppings, and only onion. The outcome is, you order it with no modifications to get all the toppings advertised, or you remove one topping and don't add "extra" of anything else and that's all you get. There is no way to get a standard amount of all toppings minus the one you can't eat. The hummus is advertised as coming with pita but both times came with nothing. I thought it was a fluke or mistake which is why I gave them a second chance. The phone number listed is invalid so there is no way to contact them to tell them your order is wrong. I had to throw out both items for me (I can't eat onions). What a waste of money.
