All the food is delicious. My mom is 81 and requires a walker, and my wife requires a service dog. All the staff were super accommodating. We had several dishes, and each one was unique and full of flavor. The entire staff is great.

Food was delicious, service was on point and decor was beautiful. Just wish their bread was a bit more crisper, it was a bit too soft, I personally prefer it be a bit more crunchier. Also, hope they’ll add mushroom casserole to their menu, just like their other NJ location ( Cliffside Park). But would definitely come back..

I just have good things to say about this restaurant. So happy I found it. Our server was very friendly and attentive. They played really good instrumental music which i really liked. The food was delicious and they give you really big portions. I had lamb shank at many different restaurants but this was the best I have ever had. Try their bodrum cokertme kebab, red lentil soup and their baklava so good! I definitely will be coming back to try other things in the menu. Oh and it’s BYOB so that’s a plus!

If you’re not in a rush and want quality FRESH food, you definitely should pull up a chair. Appetizers we had were Mediterranean salad, stuffed grape leaves(had a touch of cinnamon in them), mixed platter(very large), and the show stopper Cinar Borek. Dinner was Bodrum/chicken, Baby Okra/chicken, chicken shish, and the winner TURKISH DUMPLINGS. Everything was good-excellent and staff was friendly and laid back.

Amazing food , Great Service and the place is BYOB. there are plenty of options for vegetarians and vegan. The chickpeas falafal balls are of good size and freshly made. Pita bread tasted good and was fresh, soft to go with Tahini and hummus.

Ok to be honest I love Cinar for it’s delish Turkish kebab but I have to say that their vegetarian doesn’t disappoint either. Their dip platter is too good and falafel are amazing with hummus. Also really liked roasted peppers and the salad! Above all, it’s in Livingston and it’s halal ✅

My third time back, consistently very, very good. Each time, I ordered the chicken kabob, which was surprisingly tender and seasoned nicely (not overpowering). Came with two sides, assorted veggies cooked just right , also lightly seasoned and white rice. The rice could use more flavor, but cooked just right. To top it off, tasty white sauce (like tzatziki, but not as thick).

Our family came here to celebrate my mother’s 75th birthday. The food was cold and bland. The service was terrible. And when we complained about the overcooked vegetables, our server accused us of lying so that we didn’t have to pay for the side dish. We have been frequent customers of the West Caldwell location (which has always been excellent in food and service), so this experience was truly shocking. The manager actually argued with us when we spoke to him.
