Turkish Restaurants near Freehold, NJ

“The ambience is nice. Staff are courteous and food was great. Ordered lahmacun, chicken chops as mains, they tasted great and portions were good. Had lemonade too not that great. For desserts we had cold baklava, tasted amazing. Turkish tea on the house.“

“A very good option for salads , within a mall cafe .. good and healthy option. The vegetables were fresh and tasted good. Lots of options . A little expensive but expected inside a huge mall. Nicely located within freehold mall. Quick service .. good experience overall ..“

“This place exceeds expectations! The food is quality, the service is stellar and the place is spotless! The portions were generous.Can’t get better Turkish food than Istanbul Bay! The owner and manager is doing a great job! This is a must to try, and you will go back again! The entire staff was great, top rated service.“

“So glad we gave this place another try. Me and my husband went here when it first opened and it was good but we thought it was nothing special.
Fast foward to today and it was out of this world good. The meat was tender and the flavors were on point. What ever you are doing, keep doing it. I’m glad I don’t have to travel to Brooklyn anymore to get a gyro and chicken kebabs. My only criticism is the sauce cups…make them bigger, please and thank you.“

“After spending almost $300 for dinner they wanted to charge me for a second cup of coffee. What a poor policy. They give enough bread for two people when we were four and wanted to charge us for more bread. That's nickel and dimming“

“I can’t stop dreaming about this place! Every time I go I try something new and exciting which brings me right on back. My favorites thus far are the menemen and turkish coffee for meals / snacks, and just about every single dessert… especially the Turkish custard!! I also must say that the staff are superb. They treat every person like family. From the first time we went, they scooped up my son and pampered him with cookies. Now every time we go, they remember him and greet him with a warm smile. I am thrilled that Hamide has opened up close by and am looking forward to many many years of enjoying both their food and company.“

“Best cafe in the area! Delicious baked good and the breakfast board is excellent! I want to eat everything when I go! Only open on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) so plan your visit!“
