Dervish Turkish Restaurant is truly a hidden gem when it comes to authentic Turkish cuisine especially from Gaziantep ,Every dish is prepared with incredible quality and attention to detail. What really sets this place apart is the warm, welcoming atmosphere — it feels just like being at home.

Authentic Turkish cousin with five star service, clean, courteous and fast. Our waiter gave the true recommendation for our order. Good family restaurant. We had a lunch today there it made my day. Fresh serve bread and İskender was phenomenal. Definitely I will come back for more 💯

So my review is based on a party I was at where Dervish catered it. Everything was fantastic ! They had an excellent amount of food, very fresh tasting. It was great because I was able to try a variety of things. 4 different meats, two types of rices, babaganoush, hummus, pita and my favorite was the Shepard salad. I am excited to try dine in next.

From the moment I stepped into Dervish something was off. None of the three head waiters at the front desk greeted me. When one finally looked in my direction and seated me he said 'this table will give you more room ', I can only imagine he was alluding to my size, which at present is plus size. This is maybe ok for the waiter to be thinking as he seats me but not saying out loud to his customer.

While I spent over 10 minutes waiting for my friend to join me, not one of the several waiters buzzing around offered me a drink, water, or even acknowledged that I was there.

When we finally did order our meal, I asked for the mint lemonade and never received it. I had to get it taken off my bill for $9. Our meal was really ordinary. The hummus had no flavor, the Shepherd salad no spices, the mixed grill was OK but not great. The best dish was the Babaganouje. The atmosphere was lovely. But nothing makes up for rude, condescending servers, who I am certain, targeted me as unwanted and unworthy of their time and attention due to my size.

I was so looking forward to sharing a fine meal with my friend on a Saturday night. What a total disappointment Dervish in Cedar Grove turned out to be!

Let's hope Dervish management and owners take customer reviews seriously and they themselves teach their servers that all customers deserve to be treated equally, even the ones they don't find attractive!
