Great food and great service, good selection of options, high quality food. Definitely would recommend this place and come back here. It’s right next to the aquarium if you’re looking for a nice stop after. Not pictured is the yummy dessert we got that we got had “yummy” in the name and it did not lie super good and highly recommend. Also had outdoor seating which would be great in the summer.

Enjoyed lunch here a few times. The food is always delicious. I had the kofta kebab and chicken. The meat and chicken were seasoned and cooked perfectly. The outdoor seating is great during warmer weather. The server was quick and attentive.

Lovely spot to grab a bite. They took care of us well, and helped us to order as well. The food was amazing, we finished everything and ordered more. They have seating outdoors and on the porch, great view.

This Turkish restaurant in Long Island is a hidden gem! The food was absolutely delicious, the view was breathtaking, and the service was excellent. Dining outdoors was a lovely experience, though there were a few bees around. Still, it didn’t take away from the amazing atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

Turkuaz Grill is such a lovely place with a wonderful staff! Since I am often on the go I love to stop by and get some delicious food to go. My favorite meals are the Turkish Cigars and Mediterranean salad with chicken! They have so many delicious dishes to pick from so Defoe rly go there and enjoy! I also love the location as it’s very serene.
