“PIDDE DELICIOUS PLACE IN NEW JERSEY;
I’ve been living in the U.S. for 16 years, and the thing I’ve missed and loved the most is lahmacun. After trying it at PIDDE, I’ve never had lahmacun anywhere else again. At other places I’ve tried over the years, I always experienced heartburn afterward — but never at PIDDE.

It’s a place you can visit with your family and feel completely at ease. The food is delicious, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming.🙏“

“Great service and amazing food“

“Very good falafel. Quite pricey. Nice and fast service.“

“I celebrated my birthday at this restaurant and could not have asked for a better experience. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable, the food was outstanding, and the service was attentive and friendly. It truly made my day special — highly recommend!“

“Fantastic Doner, the cuisine is exceptional.“

“Really enjoyed this neighborhood gem, which has been there for 30 years. We tried it for the first time this past weekend and thought the food was terrific. The staff was very sweet and attentive, as well. It’s also good to know that it is open late, after Broadway shows let out, should you feel like dining on the late side.“

“Great Pide and hospitality - Aug 22, 2024“

“Bence bolgenin en iyisi, yemekler çok lezzetli, hiç bir şey baştan salma değil. Çakışanlar Cok saygılı. Amerika’da gittiğim en iyi restaurant diyebilirim ve iyi bir Türk yemeği yemek isteyenlere tavsiye ederim. Adana kebap, lahmacun ve kuş başı pidesi ni denedim ve bayildim. İnşallah diğerleri gibi bozmadan devam ederler.“

“Absolutely amazing spot for Turkish food in Murray Hill. It was close to my hotel, so I figured to stop in. I’m so glad I did. I got to try a variety of different items, inducing: ayran, chicken Adana sandwich on home bread, Turkish tea, and rice pudding.

The ayran was probably the best I’ve ever had in my life. It was so refreshing, the perfect amount of salt, so good. And it’s homemade. I would highly recommend you try this drink regardless of what you order, it’s that good.

The chicken Adana sandwich was also quite nice. The chicken was fresh and well seasoned in a good portion with some lettuce, onions, tomatoes as well. The bread was great. It’s served with two wonderful, flavorful sauces: hot sauce and yogurt sauce (I much prefer the latter). Portion is incredible for the price.

Then, I was initially interested in trying the fig pudding for dessert but they were out of it, so I went with the rice pudding. Again, a huge portion that is well worth the price. So creamy, so good. And, they brought out 2 Turkish teas for free to make up for not having the fig! The people are just very nice here, and the tea was also lovely, piping hot and just perfect.

It’s a pretty small restaurant but doesn’t get crowded early on. They were playing some Turkish music while I ate, and I really enjoyed it. The people are very kind and attentive and the food is just incredible. Must try!“

“Food and drinks were delicious and our wait staff was friendly and attentive! Two thumbs up!“

“We’ve always been happy with the Turkish food in this friendly place, but this Thanksgiving discovered that they also offer a turkey dinner on this day. $50 per person for tasty turkey and stuffing, mashed potatoes, special rice, plus pumpkin pie and coffee. Since we no longer want to be bothered at Thanksgiving we will probably return here.“

“Excellent! Definitely recommend this to anyone interested in Turkish Cuisine!“

“very outstanding service also great food 🍱“

“I used multiple food delivery services to get my mediterranean food here, tried the lento soup, chicken shish, lamb shish, hummus, veggie sticks, etc. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because the chicken shish and vegetables had charred parts and the chef didn’t bother to remove them. (but it is wise to remove heavily blackened parts before eating).

If you don’t want to eat too salty foods, you need to specify less salt or no salt in the takeout order. If you don’t want the overcooked lamb, you also need to specify medium rare.

Overall, a very high end restaurant that has good quality food and friendly staff. Especially with the outdoor setting in the fall evening.

Would recommend.“

“I love this place amazing food ;) and friendly staff ❤️❤️❤️. Cute outdoor seating great place to come“

“Love it i enjoyed the food“

“This is a wonderful, delicious restaurant with generous portions. The appetizers are great and the mains are excellent. I love their gyro meat, Shepard salad and assorted appetizer plate. If you enjoy Turkish food you can’t go wrong with this restaurant.“

“My first time going was last Friday right as they opened and I must say for my first time eating a Turkish dish, I was blown away. The service was on point and efficient as well as the plating of the food. I was in love with the portions too and even the bread was just so savory. I can say I have not one complaint about this place and highly recommend it to everyone.🥰“

“Un buen restaurante, deliciosa comida Turca, buena decoración, excelente atención, variedad en el menú . Muchas gracias“

“When I am in town I frequent this establishment as often as possible. They provide the best mediterranean food on the East Coast. The service is impeccable. The food is out of this world. Thank you so much for being around.“

“We highly recommend this restaurant for lunch and dinner!“

“I like to come by and eat lunch here because the food is delicious, quickly served, and price is giving. Lunch Menu is now $17 for soup or salad, appetizer, main. I had the lentil soup (could use some more flavor its a bit bland), the hummus was very
good (wish they had real warm pita instead of bread ), my Chicken kabob was cooked perfectly (meat was tender and soft).“

“Great place to eat Turkish food. Service is excellent & atmosphere is very nice: casual & friendly. Lots of tapas to choose from. Lamb dish is tender & baklava is superb. There’s live entertainment on the weekends. Sometimes one of the guests will be playing a clarinet or a guitar while eating. Lol. Lots of local Turkish people eat in this place. They started as a tiny restaurant & they have expanded to the one next door.“

“It was my first time eating at this Restaurant today. OMG the food was amazing….not to mention the service was outstanding…. WOW. Will recommend 100%“

“Went for lunch. Parking limited, but in front. Quality ingredients prepared with attention to detail. Real waitstaff. Clean, Clean, Clean No rushing you out. Great containers for take home leftovers. Definitely recommend. Chef Ray“

“Basic but very good, especially for the price. A highlight was the woman at the register who was very concerned and accommodating. You can get a half chicken and two sides for $15.95... and that ain't bad. The establishment is a solid choice for a quick and reliable meal.“

“For an authentic taste of Turkiye, you must visit Kral Pide. They've mastered two of Turkiye's most famous dishes: pide and lahmacun.

The pide is a true masterpiece but the lahmacun is the real star. The bread is paper-thin and crispy, topped with a flavorful, finely spiced mixture of meat and vegetables. Served with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of parsley, it’s a light, delicious, and addictive roll-up.

Both dishes showcase the quality of the ingredients and the skill in the kitchen. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was welcoming. If you’re looking for the best pide and lahmacun in town, this is the place.“

“Delicious, flavorful, healthy food, wine (and tea!) Excellent atmosphere. Very friendly and efficient service. I have been a client of SipSak for many years, and have brought my family and friends. So happy to have this great Turkish restaurant in our neighborhood. I had Ali Nazik today, which is ground beef, tomatoes, peppers over a smoked eggplant puree and yogurt. A glass of Malbec. And the delicious Turkish tea (which is served in a really cute cup!) The bread and olives are also very yummy! I would certainly recommend!“

“Food is perfect also, I love the hot pita bread. Price is really good 😊“

“Best Turkish Food this side of the Black Sea ?! Sarah really welcomes all with professionalism. Staff has a Great outlook too.“

“I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The Lahmacun was delicious, with the perfect blend of flavors and a crispy crust. The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. It's no surprise that the owner is a well-known chef in Turkey. I highly recommend you all try it!“

“Excellent food, service and ambiance. Try the mixed grilled sampler, and the desserts are espectacular!!!“

“Best Turkish place in the city!“

“Nice Mediterranean spot, might want a reservation as it is a bit small. Excellent dessert selections and pastries. We enjoyed the calamari, hummus, and the mixed grill and decided the lamb chops were the best part. All of it was delicious but I would order just lamb chops next time, the mixed grill is a nice way to try several meats. The hummus and pita were very good as was the calamari and the sauce it was served with was very nice as well.“

“We come to NJ 5-6 times a year and always make it a priority to eat here. It is the best tasting, most authentic Turkish food you will find! Highly recommend it!“

“We loved this place! Came once for brunch and once for dinner and both times food was great, fresh, great taste, large portions, nicely presented. We highly recommend this restaurant. The service is excellent as well, the waiters are always ready to go out of their way to make you happy.“

“We stumbled upon Toros because we were trying to find a place to eat on the last day of Ramadan. They were super packed but they told us if we waited for a few minutes they would be able to sit us. We were so glad we waited because the food was fantastic. It was by far one of my favorite Turkish restaurants in NJ. The service here is great. They are very attentive and the food comes out pretty quickly. The seating is a little tight but not uncomfortable. We didn't know they had a parking lot the first time but the next time we came, parking is right next to it which was convenient. Definitely recommend coming to eat here. Stop by in the afternoon on a weekday or weekend when its less crowded. You won't be disappointed.“

“As a first time visitor to New York, I was delighted to find such fresh middle eastern cuisine, delivered to my hotel (fast) by e bike! Highly recommend!“

“The best Turkish food in the area as all other Turkish places focus on cheap, fast food. Cinar has the best food and quality and it tastes like fresh home made food. Everything in the menu is delicious. Now they have a great app for easy ordering. The service is always good there with warmth and kindness. This place is a true gem.“

“Best Turkish and Mediterranean restaurant in nyc. You have to try it.“

“We had a great dinner tonight at Happy Vegans. We were greeted warmly and offered a taste of their special dish kofta, which is a delicious mix of spices, tomato and bulgur. I had the happy vegan burger which was huge with three patties made from kofka, lettuce tomatoes and a large serving of fries. We were given mayonnaise and ketchup to dip the fries in. Baklava for dessert. I highly recommend this charming restaurant. Easy street parking.“

“Ada is a great restaurant and an enjoyable place to spend an evening/ celebration with family and friends! The staff and host are always so welcoming and pleasant. The delicious food and desserts speaks for themselves always made fresh and presented with such style. We recently celebrated a birthday and had such an amazing evening thanks to Selchuk and the staff.“
