Istanbul Grill is truly a hidden gem in Newark. This family-owned Turkish restaurant serves incredibly generous portions, but what really stands out is the love and care that goes into every dish. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with pride. Beyond the food, the staff are exceptionally kind, welcoming, and attentive, making you feel more like a guest in their home than a customer. A must-visit spot for anyone looking for great food and genuine hospitality.

Our go too whenever we have company coming over. Their chicken Shawerma meal is my personal favorite the sauce and chicken have a rich flavor and amazing taste.
Usually we order to go the restaurant can get super busy, and they share an entrance with a smoke shop. Their meals are big and easily feed more than one person.
The staff are nice and friendly we’ve eaten here a few times and everyone is just willing to help you, and make you feel comfortable.
Delicious, fresh food, a friendly welcoming staff. We loved our mixed grill - see photo. The babaganoush was tasty.
Enormous portions. My husband and I split a mixed grill and 2 appetizers and we took home leftovers. It’s a diner atmosphere, reasonable prices. Highly recommend for casual, relaxed meal. Loved that so many customers were Turkish.

Great small cafe atmosphere! Even if you don't order anything which I highly advocate doing, go in for a cup of tea and a smile. The food is authentic, made to order, and there's something for everyone. Had the chicken kabob. Perfectly seasoned and cooked.

We were craving for Turkish food so we stop by this place on the to Baltimore. Food was average but service was great. Especially our server Aysu (if I am not mistaken) she was very friendly and great server.

This is my favorite restaurant. The food is always amazing. The staff is always friendly. I love picking up my order and seeing all the meat in the cases ready to be grilled, the cooks on the grill and the wonderful aroma. Christmas everyday. Why eat fast food when for a few dollars more you can get fresh, amazing, healthy food. My favorite is the gyro platter (doner porsiyan). Beef, rice, salad and bread. Also try Ayran with it if you haven't. To good not to share!!
