    Ask for a special appetizer mix plate - tastes like Mediterranean heaven! Get Turkish meatballs and polish it with authentic Turkish red wine 🍷 cool electronic music, very ambient

    Best brunch place in new york. I am surprised that not many people know about it. Music is great too and the staff is very professional.

    Had the small plates - yummy Baba ghanoush and lentil patties, skip the white bean salad. Draft beer is a European small pour (330ml) with the pint price $7.

    Samples of awesome Turkish cuisine served in an elite presentation. The breakfast (serpme) is my favorite.

    Lovely staff, no attitude and great low-key place in the neighborhood. Great and simple food, healthy, very well priced ! (The meatballs are really good, as well as all the mezze!)

    Lovely in the summer, but at it's seductive best on a cold, snowy night in the winter. Enjoy a glass of wine in a dark corner with a co-conspirator.

    Quiet and chill. Inexpensive mezzes and great grilled entrees. Easy to get a seat on a weeknight.

    The manti dumplings, LAMB CHOPS had amazing seasoning, appetizer platter, and chicken. And it’s all Halal.

    The hummus is so fresh you can taste every wholesome ingredient. The salmon was cooked perfectly too!

    $10 prosecco, very small tapas plates lacked flavor: eggplant sautéed $6 & lentil patties (4 small balls) $7. Nice bar and friendly service.

    Their hummus and bread are fresh and delicious. A bit pricey, but great service and environment.

    Whatever you do, get the baklava for dessert. One order comes with 3 pieces — perfect for sharing...or not.

    The food, wine and drinks at this Turkish spot are worse than its country's political climate

    Nice place to celebrate a birthday on a Saturday night. It doesn't get too crowded, great wine selection, and they have delicious Turkish food that you can eat at the bar area.
