“rice pudding, cookies, borek,“

“Absolutely delicious. Meats perfectly seasoned and juicy, brought me right back to Türkiye. That and the people- two regulars welcomed me in with open arms fo share a table with them. Go for the Ararat kebab plate- it has everything and is plenty food for 2 people. Excellent baklava to top the feast off. Wish I had saved space to try their soup, which just about every table had ordered. Next time.“

“Pàr napja itt vacsoràztunk a csalàdommal!Az ètelek isteni finomak voltak. Csirke gyros tàlat ès a Mix Grill hús tàlat vàlasztottunk, friss volt minden! A Hummust mindenkinek ajànlom, hogy kóstolja meg! Mennyei finom volt! Kedves kiszolgàlàs ès èlő zene is volt! Mindenkinek csak ajànlani tudom ezt a helyet! Visszatèrünk mèg! We had dinner here a couple of days ago with my family! The food was delicious. We chose the Chicken Gyros platter and the Mix Grill meat platter, everything was fresh! I recommend the Hummus to everyone to try! It was heavenly delicious! There was also nice service and live music! I can only recommend this place to everyone! We will be back!“

“This Turkish restaurant is outstanding in all aspects! Our dinner consisted of the Meze Combo, which is an excellent selection of their fabulous appetizers, the Lamb Shish Kebab, with lamb that was cooked to perfection, and the Adana Kebab, which was a fine mixture of lamb and beef in a slightly spicy combination. The waiter was very polite and extremely friendly and welcoming, and very attentive to our needs. We thoroughly appreciated his recommendation of the baklava to compliment the excellent meal we had. It had just the right amount of sweetness and a wonderful blend of walnuts and spices. Due to the meal being so exceptional, we came back the next morning for an outstanding breakfast!!! We had the Menemen (Shaksouka) and the American Breakfast. And finished it off with a bowl of their Sutlac - the creamy rice pudding! Delicious indeed! Great waitstaff at both meals! We highly recommend Zevi Cafe!!!“

“great food! period. love it“

“The food was delicious and so were all of our wines, but unfortunately the servers didn't know how to handle an allergy, which left a bad taste in our mouth about the whole experience. I'm writing a review in hopes management will take training their servers about allergies more seriously! We arrived at 5 PM, so when the person who brought our food out wasn't able to understand what we needed regarding the allergy, there were plenty of staff available that could have helped out. Instead we asked that person 3 times, and then 2 other servers. Only one of the three staff members correctly informed us of the type of nut and understood that we needed new utensils to avoid cross contamination - it was a big distraction to our otherwise enjoyable meal.“

“I ordered the Salmon plater it was fresh, the rice was so good and instead of hummus I ordered salad which was also great, and the thin bread omg it was amazing everything was delicious. The price it's right loved it!! I just started working around the area so I had a great experience it clean and smelled clean.“

“Simurg Bakery provides great baklava to the ones missing a professional taste in USA. Go for it!“

“How did I not know about this place? I saw it pop up on Uber Eats (new to me) so I ordered the lamb and beef meatballs with rice, lightly pickled beats, tabouli and some included arugula. Faboo! It's very fresh and a very generous portion. The optional hot sauce is not to be skipped if you like a bit of heat.“

“We really enjoyed dinner last night. We have been wanting to dine here as we have seen how many people are outside. Folks, make a reservation, it will reduce your time of waiting if you just simply think you can just drop in; however, they do have a sit down counter at the bar. Everything we ordered was delicious. The icing on the cake was meeting Cem, the owner. What a pleasant man. We would love to see hear live music at least once a week or once a month to fully experience what we have experienced in Greece. Not all restaurants have live music, but hearing instrumental music (would love to hear live singers, too) especially the bouzouki would be refreshing. Great dining experience. We will be coming back often and thankful we live right up the hill :) A must to dine here.“
