Luhmacun

We were on vacation leaf peeping traveling through & found this place. The complementary hot bread was so good. We ordered the luhmacun which was a large portion as you can see in photo & mixed meats. All so good! Our server was a gentleman who was very attentive. My husband ordered 2 grilled hot peppers. Our server was surprised that he actually ate both & brought him another one. He ate that one I'm not sure how. I can't handle picky food. This was a great find! Enjoy!!!

Doner Kebab

The only thing that could stop me from continuously eating was the risk of growing horizontally, like Snorlax. But it was worth adjusting my belt a notch. I recommend the mixed cold appetizer (great with the free bread) and for an entree, the Doner Platter. I'd also recommend ordering family style as the portions are pretty big. The complimentary basket of warm crispy bread was fantastic, and might have been the culprit for why we have many leftovers for our to-go box. The food was really really tasty, this place is incredible so I'm really happy to take some home.

This is our favorite restaurant and we always come here, even now that we moved out of state, whenever visiting, this is a must stop. It's always very fresh and delicious food, the service is amazing and everyone is extremely pleasant, and they recently remodeled and the restaurant looks beautiful! Highly recommend.

Zucchini Mujver and Sigara Boregi

I wasn't sure what to expect from the looks on the outside, but after passing the many outdoor tables nested under a large tent, the indoors welcomed us with many wide, comfortable booths. Service was prompt and pleasant, and we didn't feel out of place in a restaurant that was a bit outside of our normal palate. They have lots of different types of kebabs, and offer several vegetarian dishes as well. I don't personally eat lamb, so we sampled some of the other dishes. The feta/filo appetizer was quite delicious and lightly fried. I would recommend getting some of the dill dip that comes with the zucchini patties (super good!). This was an impulsive stop after a trip to a nearby park, and I would definitely recommend it. It was so pleasant that we are planning on going back and trying some of the other kebabs or fish offerings, as well as some of the teas. Please note, you can bring your own beer/wine to the restaurant!

Saw the sign and thought lets try it. Definitely not disappointed! Great service, great food and easy on the wallet. We will return soon.

This place is so good! The flavors are delicious. My favorite things were the mixed cold appetizer plate and the lentil soup! I loved all the appetizers and the soup! I really liked the Turkish coffee afterwards as well! I will definitely be back and recommend it!

Mother's Day Surprise Dinner

On Mother's Day unfortunately I didn't get to see my daughter due to work. Our daughter surprise us with delivery from Saray with variety of outstanding food. Everything from salads, entrée, bread and desserts was delicious. We got to experience great foods from a restaurant we have never been and will definitely go to soon.

The chutney type one was my favorite by far, followed by the cacik and baba ganoush. The carrot and cabbage ones were a little too heavy on the mayo for me. The bread was delicious! Our meals were also very good. I was personally not a big fan of the chicken adana even though everyone raves about it, but it was just personal preference. My husband loved it!

Was a little concerned that one said it was in a dying Mall. But most of the food reviews were very positive. It was a little hard to find... GPS took me to the other side of the mall...which was DEFINITELY dying. Stopped in another restaurant and got directions to the Mosaic Cafe. The decor was quite colorful and festive. Added to the Middle Eastern experience. I ordered Lamb & Chicken Shish Kebab and a Side of Hummus. Excellent Fresh Bread. Outstanding flavors... meats were perfectly cooked and tender. Hummus was great with the bread. Salad was tangy. The Rice and Bulgar where OK... nothing special. The waitress and the owner couldn't have been friendlier. Like most places these days, it was a bit pricey...but these are the times we live in. Chances are I won't be back in that area anytime soon. But for a one night stand, it was excellent.

City Kebab is a Middle Eastern kebab restaurant that opened in Hartford, Connecticut in September…read more2023. It was founded by husband and wife Uzbek immigrants Timur Rakhimov and Aziza Djalmamedova. The couple immigrated to the United States from Uzbekistan in 2010. After over a decade of education, training, and hard work, they decided to try their luck as restaurateurs. They found a space that used to be home to Hook & Ladder Restaurant (right next to Hartford Fire Department's historic South Green Station). The couple hired Turkish immigrant Hasan Korkmaz as their head chef. Together, they curated a menu full of traditional Turkish and Uzbek cuisine that is all prepared in accordance with halal dietary laws. Some of the menu items include kebabs, samsas, falafel, gyro, and mezzo platters. I recently dined at City Kebab while I was in Hartford to see a concert. I checked Yelp to see if there was anywhere good to grab dinner before the show, and Middle Eastern/Mediterranean cuisine sounded fantastic to me. When I entered, I was greeted by the very friendly co-owner Timur, who said, "I work for my wife. She's the real boss." After being seated, I began to look over the menu. When Timur returned, he tried to recommend that I get gyro. I told him, "Oh no. I know exactly what I want. I'd like to order a variety of small plates to sample. I'm a local food blogger and I want an authentic experience." Timur was just ecstatic and quickly went to give my order to the kitchen staff. I started off first with a small "Mixed Cold Appetizer" (combo of hummus, babganush, haydari, soslu patlican, antep ezme, avocado ezme), the "Falafel" (mixture of chickpeas, parsley, onions, garlic, Middle Eastern spices, deep fried) and a small teapot of "Turkish Black Tea". Timur brought me some complimentary "Ramazan Pidesi" (Turkish Bread) as well as a glass of "Fresh Squeezed Lemonade". He said, "You need to try this!" So far, everything was excellent! For the main course, I had the "Mixed Grill" (mixture of chicken shish, beef shish, kofte, lamb adana, beef & lamb gyro, served w/ white rice, bulgur rice, Mediterranean salad). It was a symphony of Mediterranean flavors! Timur surprised me with a "Pumpkin Samsa" (pumpkin filling in crispy pastry, seasoned with spices, served w/ tomato sauce) and said, "You can't leave without trying this. It's an Uzbek specialty!" It was very tasty! Before the meal was over, he said, "Save some room. I have another surprise for you at the end." He brought me "Künefe with Dondurma" (Turkish ice cream). I had never tried this before. Stuffed with melted mozzarella and then topped with pistachio and almond crumbles, it was simply divine! I repeatedly thanked Timur for his hospitality and for sharing his culinary cultural traditions with me. I had enough leftovers for both my wife and I to have for dinner the following evening. I'll definitely be returning with my whole family. If you're looking for an authentic Middle Eastern culinary experience in Hartford, then look no further than City Kebab!

We came here for lunch on a Saturday around brunch time and it was busy, but we got a spot at the bar and they still had a few extra seats. Menu had a good selection of sharables all for decent prices and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time while being super fresh. Hummus was amazing - super great to dip the bread in. Sizes of the dishes were just right, a little small for me but average I'm sure for others. Shrimp and mussels were great whole the artichoke was okay - would probably skip that next time.

Once we placed an order, it took forever for the food to come. We ordered some apps, a meal of the lamb, the kebabs and my mom ordered a seafood tajin. We asked for the steak kebab to be medium rare, it was provided to us well done. The seafood tajin didnt come out at all, and when we asked about it, they put in the order. By the time my mom got her meal, everyone else was done. We also had to ask multiple times to get coca cola refills. When we ordered dessert, they did nothing to acknowledge or celebrate my mom's birthday. Overall the food was average, but what really brought my rating down was the poor service.

The kofte lacked seasoning, in the past I remember it being flavorful and juicy, but it lacked salt and was a bit dry and crumbly. The chicken shish kebab was very well marinated and most pieces were cooked perfectly, melted in your mouth! However, there were a couple pieces that I can best describe as rubbery and tough. It looked cooked inside, but it could not easily be cut with a knife or bit into, and it made a weird "rubbery" sound as I bit into it. I think this is not a cooking issue, but rather maybe the quality of the chicken breast? The pieces that were good were really good. The mixed cold appetizers were good, a nice size to share with 2-3 people, and the warm bread and butter is always a delight. I'm not sure if today was just a fluke due to the meat batch or if the cooking style has genuinely changed (it's been quite a few years since my last visit). Perhaps the Adana kebab would have been better as it is a ground meat. Our waitress was friendly, and we thought the portion sizes were good
