“Stumbled upon this Mediterranean gem while driving to a nearby Staples and decided to come back the same evening to try it out—and wow, it did *not* disappoint. They offer a $45 shared menu that’s absolutely worth it. Every single dish was beautifully presented, with rich flavors and generous portions. The food came out fast, but nothing felt rushed—the service was excellent and attentive from start to finish. The ambience is warm and stylish, perfect for a casual dinner or a special night out. This place is a high-end hidden gem in Brooklyn. Definitely coming back!“

“I don’t know how they make such a classic and simple dish taste so good, but I’ll take it. I’m curbing my urges because I’m pretty sure every offering they have here is over a thousand calories. Guilty pleasure.
I did not enjoy the deserts, mainly the baklava. Didn’t taste fresh and was a let down. But they still deserve 5 starts for the main courses, because it was just that good.“

“Absolutely delightful very cool vibe with out being pretentious cozy and hip.You can tell the owner (who is the chef) puts a lot of thought and love into the menu. Seasonal clean and simple yet very tasty dishes. If you are lucky enough to visit while her husband is working the floor he is a true front of house person; funny fabulous bartender and excellent taste in music. I found the prices very reasonable.For anyone who complains about the prices have you purchased food from a market lately!? Looking forward to returning next time I am in the neighborhood.“

“I end up visiting this place twice in a month. I loved their food & service so much that I had to took my friends to try their food .
The price is on the higher side, but I rather enjoy good with excellent customer service; rather than cheap food with horrible service! I have a feeling because of the price I will not be able to come on a regular basis but whenever I wanna treat myself with good food , this will be my go to place. So glad I don't have to travel 3 hours just to go on a different borough to get good halal food.
Ambience is beautiful, very clean & the restrooms are excellent lol. Not just good taste they spent money decorating this place!
Food portions are great, my friends loved everything they tried. I am so glad lol, or else you know how friends are !
Very rarely I get to try Turkish cuisine & I am glad for trying . Thank you everyone for all your hard work!
Another thing I have to mention is that they serve alcohol, I m definitely sure if they take this out they will get much more customers! Because any place sells alcohol can’t be call halal. Maybe they can have some tasty mock-tails!“

“The restaurant prepares traditional kebab varieties using high quality meat and cooks them with care. Kebabs perfectly reflect both the flavor of the meat and the harmony of spices. The freshness of the meat and the cooking method ensure that the kebabs are tender and delicious.
Lahmacun is also one of Sophra Mediterranean Grill's favorite flavors. With its thin dough and delicious filling, lahmacun is prepared by adhering to traditional recipes. The stuffing is enriched with spices and fresh ingredients, which enhances the taste of lahmacun.
Overall, Sophra Mediterranean Grill offers traditional dishes such as kebab and lahmacun with a modern twist, while also offering a warm and friendly atmosphere, providing its guests with a delicious dining experience.“

Ordered humus with chips as an appetizer. We ordered a variety of things: Grilled mixed (chicken, lamb, beef with fries and rice), whole fish, salad 🥗 , eggplant. For dessert, it was a goatcheese with jce cream. Trust me and taste it. You can bring your own wine. Their Iced tea is good. Definitely coming back.“

“When it comes to plant-based dining, finding a truly memorable meal can be like searching for a rare gem. But let me tell you, Kotti Berliner Doner Kebab has managed to deliver an experience that I won’t soon forget.
Let’s start with the vegan wrap—though, to be honest, it felt more like a perfectly constructed sandwich. This birthday gift from a thoughtful friend had me stepping out of my usual no-tofu zone. And wow, what an exception it turned out to be. The tofu wasn’t just there for the ride; it was marinated to perfection, blending seamlessly with the veggie mix.
Now, let’s talk bread. A crisp sesame riddled exterior gave way to a soft, pillowy bite, striking that elusive balance between texture and flavor. Each topping brought its A-game, adding layers of crunch, tang, and brightness that danced in harmony with every bite.
And then there was the special vegan sauce—the kind of condiment that elevates a meal from good to unforgettable. It was creamy, tangy, and herbaceous, tying everything together like a symphony of flavor.
The experience was made even better by the cook. Their patience, friendliness, and genuine care shone through in every element of the meal. It wasn’t just food; it was a crafted experience that left me eager to return.
Kotti Berliner Doner Kebab isn’t just serving vegan food—they’re setting the standard for how satisfying, flavorful, and downright exciting plant-based dining can be. If you’re even remotely curious about vegan fare, or just crave a culinary adventure, this is the place to go. Trust me, one bite and you’ll be planning your next visit.

“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!“

“Good service, friendly staff.
Food was mostly good. The spicy dip (acili ezme) was excellent. Sis-kebap and calamari were also good.
The liver (ciger tava) wasn't great. The cheese pide had tomatoes and sesame seeds, which I didn't expect. It should be a classic cheese pide unless they ask. The rice pudding wasn't very good either.
The place was okay, nothing special.
I'd go back for the good service and the spicy dip. Just ask about the pide before ordering.
Parking: Parking wasn't too bad for Brooklyn. I found a spot two blocks away.“

“Have been here many times and always enjoyed the whole experience. However today the lamb in the shish kabob was very tough. I told the waitress when I finally finished my entree and she apologized and said I should have told her right away and she would have exchanged my meal. I appreciated her response. That's a lesson for me. My friend enjoyed her meal.“

“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.🥰“

“This place offers truly authentic Turkish food that is absolutely delicious. The owners and waiters are Turkish, adding to the authenticity of the experience. Some may not speak English fluently, so just be patient—the food is well worth it!
If you visit on the weekends, you'll be treated to a surprise performance that makes the experience even more special. To make ordering easier, I recommend looking at photos on Google. The atmosphere is vibrant, the flavors are amazing, and the entertainment adds a unique touch. Trust me—just come and enjoy an unforgettable meal!“

“As in other reviews the rotisary chicken was very good. I added carrot soup, which I never had. It was really good. My husband had a corned beef sandwich. The main problem i had was it looked like the food was sitting a while. Also, the bathroom odor was horrific. It ruined my appetite.“

“So this hidden gem is AMAZING! I went with my family and I will never forget the hospitality. I had salmon and omg it was crispy on the outside and soft inside. It was the freshest salmon I tasted and was on a bed of rice so healthy and still tasty! I tasted a Turkish soda and it was fruity and the best combination of sweet and tangy The salmon SKIN was amazingly crispy! Yes the skin. This Turkish/Mediterranean place is a place I will forever go to and overlooked. The atmosphere of the place felt like me at home so laidback!“

“recently had the pleasure of dining at Istanbul Bey and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. I tried both the lamb döner kebab wrap and the platter, and I was blown away by the quality and taste. The lamb was perfectly seasoned and tender, and the portions were generous. The prices are very affordable, especially considering the quality of the food.
What really stood out to me was how clean the restaurant is—it’s spotless, which is impressive by New York standards. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is friendly and attentive. If you’re looking for delicious food at a great price in a clean and comfortable setting, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I’ll definitely be back!“

“The more convenient place for me than the Clifton London, although I like the atmosphere of the Clifton restaurant a little better. The food though is always good and service is pretty attentive either or not they are busy. The Montclair spot has a very nice outdoors seating section in the back.
Parking can be iffy as it's on-street and there are other restaurants in the area and close spaces seem to get taken quickly. However, if you don't mind a small walk there are plenty of lots and side streets in the area, just mind the meter requirements.“

“Ate here last night with my husband - everything was great! Very friendly staff, great selection, quick service, and clean all around. We ordered gyros, salad, feta, and French fries and everything was so good. The meat was so so tender and juicy, matching The Eater articles description that actually sent us here. The Turkish pita was super fresh and light, and the prices were great. Big portions, could have ordered less for sure! Definitely will be back!“
