    Bread and olives
    Lee S.

    Been wanting to try this ever since I saw pics of their manti and finally did. Manti is simply a Turkish take on beef dumplings. For those that haven't had it, the closest thing this resembles is Russian pelmeni. It's almost as if the two cultures couldn't agree on yogurt or sour cream so they said eff it, we're manti and you're pelmeni. The verdict: very good, but Italian ravioli/tortellini is still the champ.

    Ground beef with creamy eggplant and yogurt

    Sip Sak has great Turkish dishes. We ordered the ground beef that came with a very unique creamy cheesy eggplant base. The service was lovely as well

    Mussel baklava

    Asiret kebap house is the new restaurant that replaces Sipsak which was the reason for my visit. Too bad they no longer serve simit like the previous restaurant. Among the things we had, the red lentils soup and the two appetizers, ezme (tomato/pepper minced) and piyaz (white bean salad) were good. The falafel was very greasy. The staff were friendly and gave us Turkish tea and mussel baklava as treats. Definitely reminded us of our recent trip to Turkey.

    It is way too expensive for small to medium-sized portions/starters. Compared to their new location in Astoria Queens they are bigger in size and more expensive. While the food was good, we don't think we will return. We ended up paying over $100, which simply is not worth the value or quality of the meal

    Eggplant

    stopped by on a Saturday afternoon around 1:30 PM, and we were the only customers. We ordered hot yogurt soup, a smashed eggplant dish, and lamb. All the dishes tasted authentic.

    Wow, I am bummed that I waited so long to come to NAR. I was talking to a Turkish friend at work…read moreawhile back and he recommended I try this place as we were discussing Turkish restaurants. I added to my list but didn't try it until this week and I was blown away! The restaurant is lovely and has a great vibe (although it is a little loud due to the low ceilings). Service was great reflecting exceptional Turkish hospitality. My friends and I started with small mezzes (all delicious) and zucchini blossoms, which I could have had as a standalone meal. I had the Turkish delight meat dish and that was super. My husband had the beyti and it was the best I've ever had. We all ate way too much and waddled out of there way too full. Prices are about what you'd expect in that part of town and it's worth every penny. I will definitely be back. I recommend that you go here too and am confident you'll find everything is cok guzel!

    I've gotten a decent amount of Turkish food delivered throughout my tenure here in New York, but I…read morehaven't been to many Turkish restaurants! Super glad I got to try out NAR and I hope it does well, because the food is straight up amazing. I started off with a glass of the Cotes d'Avanos Narince Blend from Turkey and I highly recommend! It's medium bodied and acidic, with mineral, stone fruit, and citrus, and would go really well with seafood. For food, we began with the mezze sampler, which included babaganoush, muhammara, and hummus. This is a great way to start the meal, especially since Nar serves a delicious bread (crispy on the outside, soft and warm on the inside) as a complementary starter. My favorites were the muhammara, an intense, piquant spread made with roasted red peppers and pomegranate molasses, and the ever-smoky babaganoush, which was served with pomegranates. The hummus was great, too; I just thought it wasn't a standout. -Aegean Style Cherry Vine Leaf Sarma (stuffed vine leaves, cherry yogurt, pine nuts, currants): Delicious. The savory, salty sarma are tasty on their own, but best when lightly sweetened with the cherry yogurt and tart, juicy currants. -Beyti Kebab (hand minced lamb wrapped in lavash, yogurt, confit tomatoes): This was the most flavorful lamb - juicy, smoky, perfectly spiced - I've had in a long time. The lavash (bread) that it was rolled in was also spiced, the yogurt was cooling, and the tomatoes and bell peppers a fresh and flavorful accompaniment. We finished off the meal with ice cream and Turkish coffee. The coffee took a while, so they took it off of our bill, which was a kind gesture. The ice cream was a different experience! It was made with goat milk, so the flavor was distinct, and it was extremely thick. High-quality and fun to try, but just a little too thick for my preferences.

The place wasn't busy during lunch time but busy during dinner time. Amazing service and delicious food! The food was fresh and came out fast. Lunch specials are $21.95 for 2 courses while dinner specials are $36.95 for 4 courses. I had the Eggplant with Tomato Sauce and Beets as the first course and Lamb Adana Kebab as Entrée. Lamb Adana Kebab comes with salad, which I can't have since it's cold and raw, but they were able to accommodate me and replaced salad with more rice. I had Kabak Tatlısı, which has a nice sweet taste and is healthy. All were delicious, also gluten free, dairy free and soy free. Plus, the Turkish Tea as the fourth course was a great pair with my meals. Their menu offers a variety of choices, including options that are gluten free, dairy free, and soy free. I would definitely come back and suggest you give this place a try if you are in Hell's Kitchen or Columbus Circle.
