Traditional Combination Platter
Brian W.

Not often that I write a review so far south of a 4 or 5 star. This meal wasn't worth my time to write it. Perhaps my taste and roof expectations are so different from those that love this establishment The menu certainly sounds very tasty and offers lots of options, including combination options for those who are not sure what some of these are or taste like. However we were very underwhelmed by the dish presentations We started off with the meat pie and spanakopita, however, to our surprise, it was very little filling and more dough than anything... and frankly, I don't want to eat bread for my meal. We decided to share a traditional combo platter instead of putting it on rice, had the onion, tomato pepper vegetable mix, which had new tomatoes, and frankly was very again underwhelming on flavor and on looks . With all the Mediterranean places that we do go to this was quite unfortunately lackluster .

These tasty treated are included if you order the dinner version of their platters. All delicious

Definitely a solid four. Food was well seasoned and cooked well. Portion was a bit small for the price. Hummus, taboulli, definitely very good. So on balance a solid meal for middle eastern food and a quick in and out for a mid week dinner with a business colleague.

Never disappoints! Kibbe is delicious as is the foul (iykyk). Traditional Middle Eastern decor can't be beat. A go to when close by.

The grape leaves are so good that they make every other grape leaves seem like they come from a cold rocky different planet.

We had falafel, chicken, halloumi, and hummus. Portions are fair, kids basically licked their plates.

Oh my God, all the sandwiches that they have are delicious even though sometimes I do wish they would come with the french fries.

The bread is so good and we got the Mansaf and spicy beef kebab for mains. Both are super delicious and massive in portions. They also got me a candle on a dessert while playing a club version happy birthday song :) It's one of my favorite restaurants in Princeton. Update: realized I reviewed the wrong Ayat previously here's my original post Have been here twice and it's such always been an amazing experience! Their portion size is massive and the complimentary pita is fluffy and delicious with zaatar and olive oil. Highly recommend their fried cheese and muhammarah. For the entrees, the chicken and kefta plates are amazing and very flavorful. I've also tried their warm milk drink that has very nice rose flavor. We usually have to wait for 10-15 min before getting seated but it's very much worth the wait. The service was fast and attentive. The interior decor is chic and culturally rich. There are just so many options and I have to come back to try more entrees and drinks.

When my boyfriend and I decided to try out Marmara we weren't expecting anything as great as it…read morewas... It's in a fricking mall! We've been there once every week for the last month...... I've enjoyed the Branzini very much ( fillet it to avoid bones) Their balloon bread is amazing with the Tapenade they serve. We always get their hummus. And their grape leaves. The Shephards salad which Is mostly tomato &cucumbers w a flavorful dressing (we put on side) .. there's just something about using their balloon bread to scoop up your salad and dips... Yep, we always get a second order of the bread... It's very light and thin and doesn't feel as gluttonous. Everybody is very courteous... It's like going to a restaurant in the city... A belly like dancer surprised us on a Friday night which was fun. I don't really wanna recommend this too much because I don't want it to get so busy that I can't get in when I want to lol but seriously it's a really great experience. They do have wine, but we bring our own and they are happy to fill a glass! Enjoy

The food is delicious, 10/10. I've been here about 5 times and have never had a bad meal…read more The service on the other hand is very slow. Consistently. It takes about 30 minutes to get your food and even longer to get a check after the fact. Which is crazy because my table was only one out of 3 other tables in the restaurant. A 20% tip is automatically applied to your bill, and then still asked if you want to tip ON TOP OF THE FACT so pay attention to your bill! Part of me thinks the reason the service isn't as good is because they know they're automatically getting that tip, but another part of me hopes that isn't the case. Ambiance is nice, very beautiful and great place for pictures.
