Sweet Turkish Gem

by Loki1967 at Citysearch

The sign that said Appetizers and Wine won the day vs the other competitors on the block. I would up having the lunch special with a first, main, and desert courses. I tried both Turkish Red Wines. They were both dry and flavorful. The bread was warm and crisp and the Coban Salad was very fresh. You could tell the vegetables were fresh and crisp. For my main dish I had a comb Lamb/Chicken Adana. The meat was so tender and tasty I don't think I left even a scrap of meat. For desert the Turkish Coffee (always a favorite) and Kayisi (apricots) were a superb ending to my meal.

I think Uskudar is a great place for going on a date and perfect to start a night out on the Upper East Side.

Avoid

by rogershields at Citysearch

Used to go here often, but moved away. Tried it again and very disappointed; the food was uninspired and not necessarily fresh. We thought it was overpriced for what it was, so on leaving I only left a 10% tip. The waitress stopped me and demanded double the sales tax - this was their "policy". WHat a nerve!

• Pros: OK Turkish food
• Cons: bad value, terrible attitude

Below average

by LKS1121 at Citysearch

Food is average, no ambiance, mediocre service. Used to be a good restaurant I'm amazed at its dramatic downturn.

• Pros: none
• Cons: everything is below average
