We were visiting from Toronto, which has a lot of great halal options, but this place has some of the best food I've tasted in a while!I was unsure if the vege pide but my goodness! Incredibly flavorful comfort food! Everything else we tried was wonderful as well.The staff was wonderful... Food came at a reasonable time (we're used to waiting as I feel most halal restaurants suffer from time management issues) and we got some fresh bread on the house by the chef!The only complaint I have is cleanness if the washrooms!Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! So good that I'm now googling recipes on how to make iskendar kababs ?
This is amazing place to try real Turkish food. Delicious and spices are according to everyone’s taste. Will definitely go again. Keep up the good work.
As Evi is excellent Turkish food and service. Thr people were nice, the prices were good and the food was excellent. I recommend just about everything.
Outstanding food, service and atmosphere! A piece of Turkey in a pocket of Rochester. The food was absolutely delicious and portions were huge; best homemade dishes! The staff was so hardworking and friendly; It’s very rare to find that nowadays. I will definitely recommend this place, it was our first time but certainly not last!
Nice family owned restaurant, but food is a bit slow to come out if there’s a group ahead of you. Unfortunately we had to wait approx 45 min for our food, and weren’t offered some sort of compensation (discount, or dessert).Tried the kofta sandwich and it was very plain. Just the meat, lettuce, tomato, in a bun. I was expecting a sauce or hummus or something.The meat tasted good, but all the bread/lettuce/tomato took away from it.Others ordered plates and said it was delicious.Maybe next time I’ll try a plate instead.
Some the best food I've had in the area!We visited As Evi at 6pm on a Saturday and there was only one other table. By the time we left, it was packed. A very pleasant and diverse group of patrons I might add. Very inviting and hospitable.Anyhow... the food. The hummus was fresh and the bread they served it with was still warm and chewy and amazing. We tried 3 different types of the bread topped and/or stuffed with meat and veggies and each was really unique and tasty. These things were the equivalent of pizza or a stromboli, but with Turkish and Mediterranean flavors. They have odd names, but do not be scared. The food feels familiar and new at the same time.Additionally, we tried a mixed grill, which was essentially a sampler platter of 4 of their proteins/kabobs (2 types of ground beef, chicken, and a lamb chop). Another great choice, as everything was flavorful and tasty.We also tried the Manti, which are little dumpling-esque bits of textural bliss, covered in a yogurt sauce with what tasted like caraway and maybe dill. This one almost stole the show. Such an exquisite mouthfeel.Lastly, we did dessert. And 3 out of the 4 of us ordered something. Baklava was rich and delectable. We tried Kadaif as well, which was good, but both of them paled in comparison to the Kunefe. This was one of the most unique, rich and delicious things I've ever tried.Sufficed it to say, I'll be coming back to try even more.
One of the best Turkish food we tried so far in New York area. Will definitely going back again.A lot of things were not available because of the Ramadan so had to go for some other options but still it was such a great experience. It was a kind of hybrid restaurant where if you want any drinks you walk to the counter and get one and some time they bring it too if you got lucky ?Jokes apart food was highly fresh and taste. Usually we feel heavy ness after eating too much but with them not at all.Service was relatively quicker than other similar restaurants and much politer, I heard they had great tea but could taste it because of Ramadan.Will definitely going back and recommendation is Adan chicken combination of beef kabob with rice lemon, onion, lettuce and some bread. So can’t beat that. Have fun ?
Very traditional Turkish cuisine. Price is on the higher end and the foods are definitely quite overpriced. If you don’t mind the money then this is definitely a place to try out.
The food is good and comes in large portions so had to pack the rest of it. Service was good despite there being one server
Went there to try their iskander kabob, but that wasn't available on that particular day. So, that was a bummer. We had a sandwitch and a mixed kabob platter. The food was good, but the price is bit too high.
