Turkuaz Halal Turkish Mediterranean

Unclaimed

I had a great experience in this restaurant. Very friendly waiters and polite service. Most waiters also speak Turkish and were very welcoming. The food was fresh and authentic. However, I’ve a suggestion; maybe mayonnaise should be available. They only told us that they solely use ketchup. And maybe make the Baklava a bit sweeter. One of my favorite parts of this place was it’s atmosphere. The place was very cozy, with low yellow lights that would induce the feeling of warmth. Overall, it’s a great restaurant in New York City.

This neighborhood has a charming spot that offers a delightful dining experience. The food is tasty, and the service is quite welcoming. The Shephard Salad was peculiar since it didn’t come with feta cheese. However, you can add it on the side for an extra $6, which seems a bit steep for a small amount of crumbled feta. We also enjoyed chicken kebab served with rice, salad (we opted for extra rice instead of salad), and stuffed cabbage entree. Both were delicious. For dessert, we indulged in rice pudding, which was sweet but enjoyable, accompanied by Turkish coffee and tea. All in all, it’s a wonderful place to enjoy a meal. **Just a heads-up: While tipping isn’t required, it has to be in cash if you choose to do so.**

Everything about this place was great. Food is amazing. As close as you can get to real Turkish food. Cold mezes are incredible, we also had Adana kebab. Charcoal taste just like in Turkey. Highly recommend it: servers are extremely kind and accommodating as well. Definitely worth giving them a try!

We decided to have lunch here before seeing Lion King on Broadway and we were so happy! The place is adorable, the style so cute and the staff incredibly kind! Now let’s get to the important stuff. The food. I ordered the lamb shesh kabob, medium well, and it was cooked PERFECTLY! Like you aren’t chewing for years to get through the meat. It’s perfectly tender, and flavorful. My friend got the chicken shesh kabob and said it’s one of the best she’s ever had. The rice was buttery goodness. And fries had the perfect crispness. The Turkish bread was warm out the oven and mouthwatering. We didn’t get a chance to have dessert but will definitely be back next time we come to the city! Sadly we forgot to take our picture before we started eating.
