The last three…read moretimes I have been there, I noticed that the mezes and the liver dish no longer tasted good, most of the staff has changed, and thus the service was no longer good either. I don't know what happened but now the place has deteriorated into a mediocre (at best!) meze place. I have many very fond memories of Pancar but I don't think I am ever going back. Previous review: Pancar is a very cute restaurant with great mezes and very friendly service. I went there with my partner and a friend, and everyone was pleased with the quality of the food and the service. We had four cold mezes and all of them were great. We then had two hot appetizers that our waiter recommended. The shrimp dish was very tasty and the liver dish was phenomenal!! As a dessert, we shared their beet dessert with thick cream. I liked it but it wasn't exactly mind-blowing. I think I'll try the other dessert options next time I am back. Highly recommended!!

Got great company? Bring them to Pancar to enjoy some Raki and mezze. Great place and food, for a…read moregood time.

This business is a labor of love, explaining why I LOOOOVE IT. So much thought has been invested into everything from the drinks and food (some of it is prepared on-site, others outsourced) to the decor and furnishings. It's so NYC or SF. Friendly staff seems lonely on the weekends, but I hear the crowds can't stay away during the week. Show 'em some love... because the music as well as the selection of magazines is awwwesome! Thanks, Young, for your reference to my preference for Turkish architecture mags. I never hesitate to bring my closest bon amie to Ankara's best kept secret.

I ordered the Chai Tea latte and it wasn't as sweet as I wanted it to be (maybe spoiled by Starbucks) but it was still refreshing enough. But the ambiance here is so NYC. It's quiet, there's some lovely jazz playing from the speakers, and if you're feeling sophisticated, you can scour through their wide collection of GQ and Esquire along with some spiffy Turkish architecture magazines. It's the perfect place to bring a small party of friends who want to lounge and chit chat or take your lady friend if you want to leave an impression on her.
