    My family drove up to this restaurant for a great meal with my grandparents. I loved how great the service was and the food was really good too. I had the grilled octopus salad and a Diet Coke. I enjoyed my meal. The octopus was delicious and it wasn't too charred, which sometimes happens. We had this latka-like dish with a creamy sauce on top. That was pretty good too. The only thing that knocked my five-star review down to four was the screaming children who were climbing on the table next to us and running around the restaurant. It was happening for the whole hour that we were there! The restaurant didn't do anything to talk to the parents about it and just allowed the kids to be loud and disruptive. I know it's mostly on the family to discipline their kids, (which they weren't doing), but the fact that no one thought to step in and talk to the adults in that party of twenty really didn't take the rest of their patrons into consideration. Overall, I liked the meal, but that really threw off my experience.

    Excellent Turkish cuisine in the heart of Mt Kisco right next to the train station. Service was friendly and quick, and the food tasted authentic. Comfy plush chairs and lots of space inside.

    The Turk is a place that you eat and brings you back as if you were in Turkey! We have been missing Turkey and their cuisine this was very much reminiscent. I imagined myself in Istanbul, and Cappadocia enjoying this food. Pita bread was out of this world paired with the Cacik Manti was good, I would order it again but better in Turkey of course. Chicken saute she order was the most delicious! A good plus is that they can accommodate for gluten free!

    Was in the area so decided to stop by based on reviews. We ordered the following to share: - mixed grill plate - cold mix apps The eggplant salad, the feta spread and the beet spread were the favs! The rest was meh. The mixed grill was very tasty - was really surprised about the lamb chop (I'm not a big fan of lamb but it was good!). Overall food was great! The kids enjoyed it it as well (5 year old and 1 year old).

    We stumbled upon this place after being greatly disappointed at the Mount Kisko's farmers market. Not at all what advertised, hot and hungry we saw this restaurant in the corner. It looks very classy on the outside but never nearly as fancy on the inside. Is very pretty and comfortable. It does give a fancy modern middle eastern vibe. We were the only ones at the restaurant and had all the attention of the server. Someone was trying to clean an instrument and some of the notes we got to hear sounded very beautiful. I am by no means an expert in Turkish food, this was my second time ever, so we ordered several appetizers to try as much as we could. I will say I think of myself as a stuffed grape leaves connoisseur and this ones did not disappoint. Although some middle eastern countries have some similarities in certain dishes, certainly each can make a key difference. This place's hummus, chicken wings, yogurt based sauce and zucchini pancakes were certainly flavorful and heavily seasoned with strong spices. We definitely want to go back and try the entrees but something to consider is that I felt the place to be a bit pricey in comparison to the amount of food but it was good quality.

    Overall, the food is very good! Everything is quite mild but flavorful, and the meats are high quality & halal. The service is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff. There was minimal wait time for food and no wait to be seated. The ambiance is great for a nice meal out as the decor is quite modern with a Turkish flare.

    Everything was wonderful. It was a clean, well kept, and ambient space decorated with charming Turkish relics and soothing music. The food was spectacular, and the service was even better. They were attentive and polite. Sinan, the owner, made pleasant conversation and serenaded our table with his lute, which we LOVED! What a well rounded restauranteur!!! He is fabulous. He was generous enough to give us some complimentary items which were absolutely delicious. Will definitely be back over and over!

    Is this place halal?

    Yes. Only the beef options are not certificated. But we have only two beer dishes. The rest of the menu is halal. 90 percent of the menu. Because our menu is mostly lamb Chicken and vegetarian.

The Turkish breakfast is essentially a smorgasbord of various foods. There's cheese there's nuts there's dried fruit. There's fresh fruit. There's cucumber and tomato salad, there's sausage, there's olives, there's bread, there's butter with honey, tahini with molasses, jam, and there's eggs.

My friends and I got the kofta platter and Turkish breakfast with the menemen, which was this interesting tomato and egg dish that was very soft and mildly sweet. The kofta beef meatballs were nice and savory, perfectly paired with the rice and salad. The Turkish breakfast is primarily a lot of cheeses with sauces and small bites with a bread basket - would only recommend if you like different kinds of cheeses and since it is very light on its own it would prob be best to order something in addition to it. My friends and I also tried the salep tea which was this traditional Turkish drink that is very thick and creamy, has a very unique texture with a sweet flavor and cinnamon garnish.

    Came here for the first time on a Saturday night and it was really busy. We made a reservation but…read morestill had to wait a bit to be seated. It's tiny inside but clean. We got the mixed cold appetizers which tasted really good with their bread. The mixed grill was very good, their lamb is one of the best we've had. I hope they consider adding iskender to their menu in the future. Unfortunately we didn't experience the best service when we were there. They didn't give us menus so we looked it up on our phones, and we had to flag the staff down to take our order after almost 15min. We asked for water refills and yogurt sauce but received neither and no one came to check on us. We didn't want to wait longer so we opted to skip dessert.

    Let me talk about the kebab -- the quality of this place has significantly declined over time. When…read morethey first opened, they were truly making authentic Adana kebab. The chef was from Adana, and he used to prepare lamb meat properly with a zırh (traditional curved knife). But those days seem to be long gone. During my last two visits, there's been a noticeable drop in flavor. It seems they've switched from hand-minced meat to machine-ground meat, and they've started mixing in beef as well. The kebab, which used to crumble with rich texture, has now turned into something more like a cheap supermarket meatball. Despite charging above-average prices, this decline in quality is unacceptable.The kebab was served with both rice and bulgur pilaf, but both had clearly been sitting for a while. The rice, in particular, seemed like it had been cooked 2-3 days earlier -- it was far from fresh. It might still appeal to Turkish customers who have never actually had proper kebab even in Turkey, but to anyone who knows what Adana kebab is supposed to be, this is a joke. I assume most of their customers are foreigners who don't really know what to expect from a real Adana kebab -- so they've taken the easy and cheap route. To make things worse, during my last visit, one side of the kebab was burnt. And the chef, like a typical trickster, had placed the burnt side facing down on the plate, trying to hide it. That's just shameful. And finally -- here's a photo of the cooked tomato they served. Completely white and unripe. Really, chef? You didn't notice when cutting it? You didn't see it while cooking? Or even when plating it? If good tomatoes are hard to find (which they're not -- they're just coming into season), then don't serve them at all. If someone asks, you simply say "It's not the season, and we couldn't find good-quality tomatoes, so we chose not to serve any." But you don't serve pickling-grade, pale white tomatoes on a plate. Also, the place is now covered with signs saying it's alcohol-free -- seriously, there are nearly ten of them across the entrance, exit, and walls. When I asked the waiter about it, he explained that the restaurant is now a "halal establishment." But here's the strange part: since the place opened, I've been there around seven times, and every time I brought my own alcohol, the staff gladly served it to me at the table. Surely they didn't just now discover that alcohol isn't considered *halal* in their religion.

The stuffed feta dates were the good balance of sweet and savory, and the eggplant dip was incredibly smooth and rich without feeling heavy. A little extra seasoning could go a long way with the dip! For mains, the salmon was beautifully cooked and well-seasoned, and the lamb shank was a standout--tender, deeply flavorful, and comforting in the best way. The falafel had a great crisp on the outside while staying soft inside. You can really tell they put care into each dish. What made the night extra special was the birthday surprise: the sweetest baklava presentation that felt so warm and personal. It was such a thoughtful touch. We also ended the night with cappuccinos, hot chocolate, and an affogato (not pictured), which were the perfect cozy finish. Overall, Shiraz Kitchen strikes a great balance between elevated and welcoming. It's the kind of place that feels just as right for a celebration as it does for a relaxed dinner. Would absolutely come back.
