I was amazed to find such a highly rated midtown restaurant (8.9 citysearch, 21(F) Zagat) in midtown with $10 entrees so I decided to try it for dinner. The place was very busy. We had to wait a bit for a table. The service was very spotty. We had to remind the waiter of what we wanted several times. The decor wasnt much to speak of. All that aside, however, the food is pretty good. The tarama (codfish caviar) was excellent, though a bit too salty. The lamb chops were pleasant. I was told the chicken kabob was good. The Turkish tea was very nice. Overall, I would not say the food was excellent, but it was pretty good, and very inexpensive.
