“Arnavut çiğeri başta olmak üzere diğer mezeleri ve special adana kebap yemeğe değer.“

“Finally able to try Kervan last night and we loved it! We will absolutely be back! The food is fabulous, the place is lovely and the staff was so warm and friendly. Highly recommend.“

“I have tried quite a few Mediterranean restaurants, and Blue Fig is definitely one I’d come back to.

We started with the warm, house-made pita and a variety of dips and you could immediately tell everything was made fresh. The hummus trio was one of my favorites—each flavor was different and paired it with the warm za’atar pita.

The grilled halloumi was perfectly cooked with a nice char and the Fig Garden Salad was fresh and light, which balanced out the rest of the meal really well.

For the mains, we ordered the Blue Fig Signature Platter and it was easily enough to share. The chicken, lamb, and beef Adana were all juicy and flavorful, the lamb chops were cooked beautifully. The Turkish manti was another standout. Every dish tasted authentic, well-seasoned and made with quality ingredients.

The fresh mint lemonade was incredibly refreshing and I also loved the Mediterranean Mix. Since the restaurant is BYOB, it’s a great spot to enjoy a meal with family or friends.

The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a warm atmosphere and private spaces for parties and celebrations, but for me, the food is what really stood out. You can tell a lot of care goes into every dish and that’s what will keep me coming back. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great Mediterranean food in New Jersey.“

“This is a delightful restaurant with fresh, exotic food. I will be back!“

“First time there for myself. My wife had been there recently for lunch. OMG, amazing. We started with their homemade, warm Pita with Babaganush (sp?). Awesome. I had their Arugala salad, which I like wherever I go. This was amazing as well. Then we had our entrees. None of us could finish our meals, they were so plentiful and delicious. We each took home doggy bags. We told them we couldn’t possibly eat desserts so we ordered some to go. They then brought out hot Turkish teas for us AND a plate of a custard for us to share. Delicious!!! WOW! This place jumped right up near the top of our list for favorite restaurants. We will definitely be back.“

“Finally, we stopped in for take-out dinners. Had a lovely chat with owners while waiting. At home,we discovered the best finger licking food. Every morsel was sooooo good. The humus never should be missed for any meal. Chicken thighs and beef are very savory. Dill dip fresh and cooling where the hot dip was unique and very enjoyable. The Mediterranean 'rice' has a savory finish. Everyone was raving how much we enjoyed our meal. The plan is to let relatives experience a sitdown dinner in the dining room which has a lovely atmosphere. Everthing is very clean and neatly arranged. We are making this jem a regular dinner option. Lamb is my next dinner experience.“
