Love those place. It was my first time here. We came a group of 5. The place is super clean. It’s a family restaurant. Everyone is super friendly. The food was amazing. 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.
Such a clean and beautiful restaurant, amazing food, and great service!! Every plate was presented beautifully and tasted delicious!

Having moved to NJ from Brooklyn we were looking for a great Turkish restaurant as we missed Turkish food and Bosphorus was beyond incredible! My partner is Turkish and I’ve eaten all over Türkiye. This place is top notch!! We had Iskender Kebap, Adana Kebap, and the Shepherd salad. Amazing! I think my heart sung! The Adana kebab was one of the best I’ve ever had. It has a wonderful spicy kick and cooked to perfection. The tzatziki (cacık) yogurt base on the side was perfect to bring down the heat. The Iskender Kebab was absolutely delicious. The Sheppard salad was perfect and the feta was so fresh it melted in your mouth. I can not wait to return here. The restaurant is family run and the owner was absolutely lovely! We promised to return and we shall. Prices did feel a tiny bit on the higher end but it’s honestly so worth it!

The food was amazing. The chef came out to our table with his wife by his side. Great guy. Family owned. It's a BYOB which we love. The Bronzino was amazing and so was my husband's Lamb. The atmosphere is cozy, warm and friendly. This was our 2nd visit and it definitely will not be our last.
Parking: It's very cheap to park. 2 hours was $1.00 I think.
We had a great experience at The Bosphorus! The food was delicious and the way it was served made it even better. They had a piano which was a huge plus for me. Overall I strongly recommend this place! Also it’s good to mention that they are halal certified by the ministry.
Amazing food & great place for intimate date night or family outing. The staff felt like family & the meals were comforting.

Amazing Turkish restaurant. BYOB. They treat you like family here. The hummus and ezme were amazing mezze options. The branzino was was charred perfectly, retaining the perfect flakiness and moistness of the fish fillet. Cap it off with baklava and Turkish coffee. They won’t rush you here. Life slows down at this restaurant so you can enjoy it.
Visited this restaurant for the first time yesterdayVery nice ambiance and the food was deliciousGreat options for vegetarians as wellPlus a hug on the way out? Very nice will def visit again in the future
