10,000 geriatric millennial points to Ravenclaw if you got that reference. And this one.
No? Then you’re too young to be reading my reviews. Go out and touch grass. Me, I’ll be enjoying memories of the Turkish feast I had on the UWS one chilly night. Our large group had:
– Slow Cooked Short Rib Pide: My favorite dish of the night and easily the rock star of their menu. Perfectly crisp flatbread meets melt-in-your-mouth shredded beef loaded with spices and accompanied by a rich eggplant spread and kashar cheese. What’s Turkish for yummers?
– Lahmacun: I ate my weight in lahmacun when I went Turkey a couple of years ago. This was a nice facsimile, loaded with plenty of minced meat and sumac.
– Muhammara: For those who like salty-sweet, you might enjoy this antioxidant-rich dip of pomegranate molasses, walnut, red pepper paste and olive oil. Mmmm
– Atom: Another dip, this of charred eggplant puree, roasted garlic, smoked labneh, and cumin topped. Spicy and hot, like Halle Berry in a sombrero.
– Erişte: K, I lied. I think *this* was my favorite dish of the night. Think bite-sized pasta, lamb cubes, cumin, and all the sumac your nose can inhale. Carbalicious!
– Vegetarian Mantı: More flavorful than many meat-filled manti, probably because of all the charred eggplant puree in smoked yogurt, and mint paprika butter glaze. Hearty!
– Izmir Kofte: Surprisingly, the most meh dish of the table. It was fine, but I feel like the sausages could’ve been way more flavorful, and the veg accompaniment was too watery.
Wash it all down with some Turkish Tea, and you’ve got the recipe for a proper cross-continental meal. Going cold turkey never felt so good–get it, cuz it’s winter and we’re talking about Turkish food?
I’ll see myself out.
genuine and delicious.
Beautiful, cozy, romantic vibes with plenty of seating, comfy chairs, and cute decor. Very friendly and quick waitstaff too.
They do a fabulous happy hour deal – 3 dips and a drink for $25 Had the spinach yorma, muhammara, and atom – all three were great, but the standout was definitely the muhammara; the atom had a nice kick to it too. Ordered a glass of Turkish red wine as a part of the deal.
We also got the 3 Cheese Pide – SO good! Lovely bit of truffle taste, delightful light crunchiness, and the cheese mix was superb. The chicken sandwich was good too, but the fries were excellent.
Can’t wait to come back!
