Came in to support after hearing about the news with the owners but I’ll be coming back to support because the restaurant just might be one of the best in the area. Customer service was amazing all around. Friendly staff from the cashier to the chefs in the back preparing the meal. Every interaction was pleasant. Had to try some of the Turkish sodas (orange and strawberry ones) and I enjoyed both of them.
Now the menu has a little bit for everyone and everything and from what I had a taste of on this visit was just simply amazing. Asked the cashier what she would recommend and ended up with ordering the chicken shush kebab platter and it didn’t disappoint. The chicken pieces were cooked to perfection and the seasoning was well balanced. Love the char that it had too. The cucumber tomato salad was refreshing and light and with the cup of tzatziki sauce on the side it made the meal feel light. Plain rice might seem boring but they sneak in a nice almost tomato-y sauce at the bottom of the rice that made it delicious and creamy that I could eat that with any meal. Even stole a little bit of a friend’s meal that’s vegetarian and the falafel might’ve been one of the best falafel pieces I’ve ever had and the French fries were done good.
So you guys may think that’s the end and honestly so did I but… dessert. They have a plethora of different options to satisfy that sweet tooth but I went with a classic baklava. Now I don’t know if this is made in house but I’m kicking myself for not buying more and bringing it home. The syrup the crust was soaking in was just fantastic and just a definitely worth saving space for to end the meal. Dessert also comes with complimentary tea from actual tea leaves and not the bagged stuff. Loved this place and I can’t stopped thinking or...
Read moreOur dinner, outstanding!! After a day at the pool, I craved my favorite cuisine Turkish. I called and placed an order for my young granddaughter and I at 7:30. Our order consisted of both the lamb and chicken kebab platter with a side of babaganush along with baklava for dessert. Dinner came with tender Turkish and bulgur rice, fresh charcoal roasted vegetables and delicious cucumber salad and tzatziki. Our lamb and chicken deliciously charcoal cooked and delightfully tender. Rice cooked to perfection! We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner, I can’t say enough! We lived in NYC for 24 years and our favorite place had been on 12th Street in the East Village. Jersey Kebab beats out our once favorite place! About a month ago, I stopped in for their babaganush, I knew then I’d be back. It was the best I’ve ever had! Frankly we can’t wait to go back, along with looking forward to telling our daughter when she visits from NYC. Our platter’s large, I had hoped to have leftovers. Instead, we enjoyed every bite! We look forward to returning soon and ordering “Mom’s” rice pudding, we already know its delicious, everything was! Thank you for a delightful dinner. Your kindness meant so much. Thank you! Bravo ! PS WE couldn’t wait!! It’s Turkish it’s authentic and it’s to die for! Went back for brunch today to take to the pool !! Our granddaughter asked if she could have more babaganush late morning, it’s that delicious! Pictured above is my out standing brunch, along with some outstanding sweets!! These sweets are delicious!! What a gracious family run local business!! Lovely...
Read moreIf there's a thousand stars, i would use it for this place. This place is really clean. Being able to see my food while it's being cooked always gives me a peace of mind. A smiley, welcoming people' faces is what you see there. Now about the food: Food is extremely tasty, accurately and perfectly cooked. Portions are very satisfying. I normally wouldn't go for things that made with yogurt, but i couldn't quit until i finished the "Tzatziki" sauce, just by itself. They have a way even with the bread, i normally don't order wraps in pita bread because the double layers of pita makes me feel I'm just eating dough more than what's inside, but when tried the wrap that my wife ordered, i was eating even the pita bread by itself.. this is how tasty it is. I tried their burger, it reminded me with the taste of food over 30 years ago, when food was natural and real. Even a food as simple and common as french fries, it tasted amazing and fresh.. i can tell they use quality fries and clean, quality frying oil. I normally try to make my reviews short and to the point, but this time I can go on and on because I am really amazed and impressed. Simply, when you go there, you're not eating in a restaurant, these folks are inviting you to their own food in their home. Imagine that!
