When I first moved to Jersey, this place came highly recommended, and it quickly became a bit of a habit. For the first six months, I was going almost weekly--and for good reason. The chicken kebab is juicy and full of flavor, the shepherd's salad is a delight, and the lentil soup is comforting and delicious. My absolute favorite, though, is the homemade bread with labneh--truly to die for. The restaurant has a lovely ambiance and feels like a special treat every time. A wonderful spot for anyone looking for excellent Mediterranean/Turkish cuisine.

Instead of telling us they didn't have/were out of chicken kebabs, they took what definitely smelled and looked like old chicken breast and put it in a pan on the grill...We told them kindly that the chicken smelled and tasted very off and to take away the plate. They then came back with the same dish but apparently having thrown it on the grill yet again...they also never took it off our bill.

Today I had fresh green beans in a light broth of olive oil and fresh tomato, most often served room temperature and the lovely 'pilaf', short grained rice browned in butter with just a bit of pasta. I also had a stewed beef dish that was tender and flavorful! The meal begins with a serving of homemade pickled veggies, unfortunately I couldn't taste it today, but it looked fresh and crisp and refreshing on this 95 degree day. Pictured is stuffed eggplant with Sukran, the lovely chef who makes everything fresh from scratch. On the menu today was also stuffed peppers. These are traditional dishes served in most Turkish homes. Even in Turkey, it is difficult to find these wonderful dishes in restaurants. Don't miss out on the strong, black tea!

As with many others, I've not been to the actual restaurant but even though they were a bit further than some other Turkish spots, they happen to deliver for cheaper compared to most on UberEats/ other delivery apps. Very special note to the Beyran çorbası or Gaziantep Beyran Soup. This is a soup made with shredded lamb, garlic, pepper, black pepper, and rice. I wish this was more common on Turkish menus as this is a wonderful super flavorful soup. There's a good amount of spice and the lamb is very tender also. Highly recommended. Outside of this, I have ordered the Antep Kebab with Pistachio which consists of skewed charcoal-broiled ground beef patties marinated and dressed in pistachio. This was tasty also with tender beef. It came with a large side salad as well as some rice and I would recommended it. I have also had the Içli köfte which they also list as kibbeh as well as a wrap with Çöp Şiş or chopped lamb kebab. The köfte was fine with good flavor and while the inside of the wrap was very tasty and super full of lamb, I found the bread to be a little bit burnt and there it was a little bit too thick. Eventually I just eat the meat and other stuff out of the wrap which was perfectly fine also. No complaints about the delivery. One time it took a bit too long but it's part of the convenience of ordering food online. Mid 4 primarily for the fantastic lamb soup of all things

My friend and I grabbed a menu and sat down at a table of our choice, then our order was taken immediately. We ordered the Mixed Grill to share, along with the Ezme (spicy turkish salad), and 2 Lahmachun. We also wanted to share the Borek (cheese pastries) but they were not available that day. The food did take long to come out, but given that there was one cook and one server managing the whole restaurant, we were patient. The Mixed Grill Plate came with all kinds of meats, all cooked well; along with rice, and a small salad. The Ezme salad was so good with bread and even better with the grilled meats. The star of the show was the Lahmachun, the bread was so thin and crispy, and the meat was seasoned perfectly. It came with Parsley, tomato, lemon; do yourself a favor and add Ezme to it and ask for onions. You're welcome! I would probably go back simply because I want the Lahmachun with the Ezme. The restaurants ambience is quite casual, but it's very clean. I will be back!
