Hands down the most DELICIOUS. restaurant I have ever eaten at. The service was exceptional. Our water was so professional, kind and passionate. You really feel the love and heart that goes into the food and I will definitely be going back. My family and I loved it we shared a bunch of the dishes and they were all insanely delicious. Wow. Truly blown away by how good it was.
The food quality is really good but if you have a dairy sensitivity skip the prefix lunch. There was only one item from 3 of the 4 categories I could have and the one appetizer is hummus no bread.
As the meal went on there were less and less things I could eat from my order as they realized everything had dairy (after asking in the beginning). I wish I would’ve known in the beginning so I could’ve ordered something from the regular menu. They were kind and apologetic.
Quality is great and I would come back but left a bit hungry and wouldn’t order from the lunch prefix menu again.

Enjoyable Turkish restaurant with authentic cuisine. Very nice looking restaurant with ample outdoor and indoor seating. Was there for brunch and we enjoyed the food and atmosphere on 2nd Avenue. The shakshuka was a nice twist with eggplant. The bread was fresh and tasty, going well with the various Mediterranean dips. Our waitress was from Turkey 🇹🇷 so she could explain the dishes well.
Amazing Turkish food!!!! At first we thought the prices were a bit high but when we got served, we were pleasantly surprised by the portions and how delicious the food was. The service was also great, they give you delicious bread to start and we highly recommend trying their hummus.
Went for their lunch special, where you get a 3 course meal for under $30. Lamb was so delicious 😋. We will definitely be back for more!
I came to NYC with my husband and randomly picked the place before the trip, however I familiarized myself with the menu and the guests’ reviews prior to coming there. A la Turka was one of my favorite experiences during my trip. The quality of the food is amazing. Each dish was seasoned perfectly, with fresh ingredients and I could say the lamb meat was very fresh and of an outstanding quality. In addition the waiter was very helpful in making my food selections. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to taste of an authentic Turkish cuisine! I’m definitely going back to enjoy again 😋
Elegant restaurant with good food. We went there for dinner on a Sunday evening and there was plenty seating available. The staff was courteous and friendly.
I would recommend the mixed meat platter, it was absolutely delicious.

We happen to be neighbours to this restaurant, and we couldn’t resist checking it out for dinner after seeing all the amazing looking food out there every day. We were pleasantly surprised when the food tasted even BETTER than it looked…we would rate it a 11/10 if we could 😋 On top of that, the service was outstanding. All of the staff were spectacular and the atmosphere was the best. Overall a fantastic experience, and we’ll definitely be back again!
