Good Lord, the tarator dip and the samuna bread that came with it were some of the best lunch items I've had in a LONG time. What I wouldn't do to learn how to make them as good as this place. Also get the baklava, it's out of this world.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at this restaurant in New York! Even though we didn’t have a reservation, the staff went out of their way to find us a table, which we really appreciated. The food was incredible — everything was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The service was just as impressive: friendly, attentive, and professional. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting...
