    Very good. Cute and small. The service could have been better. The waitress would not come to our table because we were missing two people in our party but we would have liked to have bread and water. The portions are big and the food was delicious! Will definitely be back. We shared a bunch of dishes.

    Today I placed a delivery order from Europe Cafe . It Is one of my favorites. I ordered: spinach tarator, grilled shrimp and baklava for dessert. Everything was fresh, tasty, well packed, perfect temperature. The customer service was amazing by the phone. Delivery Was earlier than I expected and perfect. Thaaaaank you guys for everything and God bless you!!! Yeah

    I prefer Greek food over "Turkish" food but this place wasn't too bad. I'll give them a generous 4 stars. We were looking for a quick (but not fast-food quick) place to eat before heading over to the new Paint & Sip studio in Tenafly (we had about an hour to spare, and as everyone from Bergen county knows the lines are massively long on Friday night if you wanna go anywhere for a nice dinner). The Europe Cafe & Grill is conveniently located on the same street as the Paint & Sip studio and there wasn't a wait so we decided to try it. It's a cute, small, modern cafe with several table/booth combos. We were pleasantly greeted. Got the grape leaves for an appetizer which were good, not the best I've had but not the worst. We also got "zucchini pancakes" which were OK- not much flavor. I got a salad with grilled shrimp for dinner. The shrimp was delish (but the salad didn't consist of much. It was spinach, tomato, and cucumbers, for $20?? Uh, I can go to any diner and get a badass delicious salad with all the works AND soup for under $20..) but whatev. My BF got a "PIDE" which is similar to a flatbread pizza (it was pretty much pizza dough with spinach and cheese inside). Nothing special. They have some healthy options here though. I like trying new food so I don't regret coming. Would I come back? Probably not.

    Itemized overpriced lack-luster Turkish food

    Below is the response from the restaurant, basically stating I was cranky because the food was late. I was clear it was the lack of quality of the food: The lamb was tough, bread stale and cold, rice undercooked, and cigar rolls soggy and cold. Very frustrating. Cigar Rolls, Lamb Kebab, Lebni. Hi. I am sorry for the delivery experience you had. Since you received your delivery late you have all the rights to complaint about. If you tried to reach out to us about we would gladly refund your money. But When a person hungry and waiting for food hey can't think right and get angry every other minute. We understand.The reason why we have high ratings is simple. We do always our best. If you read other reviews we have lots of satisfied and happy customers. Unfortunately like any other business it is hard to find employees. That's the main reason why your food was late. But we still do our best and stay open to serve our customers. Once again we are very sorry to ruin your dinner.

Visited Antioch during the holidays so it wasn't that busy. I'm sure on a Friday and Saturday it'd be more busy. The restaurant itself doesn't have much seating, only a few tables, I would say about 50 people occupancy so if you're going, make sure you make reservations. The place was nicely decorated and well kept and clean. The service was great, but this is based on 2 tables being served. I'm sure the service is just as exceptional on busy days. I love that they start out with table bread, I wished they asked us if the table wanted more. We ordered a few dishes for the table, everything was delicious. The dishes we ordered is the usual dishes that we'd order from any Mediterranean restaurant. The fries calf liver is definitely something to try. Massive amounts of flavor. The chicken kebab is very tender and the steak had a nice char flavor. Can't wait to go back again and introduce this little place to more people.

We had to ask twice for our rice we ordered for entrees to be brought out because our server forgot. Fine, that happens. But what really threw me off was when I questioned if the mold in my cheese was normal, the server assured me it was naturally occurring for the flavor. I felt gaslit because I have never had Parmesan with such questionable green growth on it for consumption in any restaurant in my entire life. The server said if it bothered me, he'd bring out fresh shavings with no mold. I have left pictures so you can be the judge of this. Aside from my minor issue with the cheese, the ambiance of the restaurant was nice and there's plenty of choices for meat and non-meat eaters alike

It was 5pm on a slow Monday so we were seated right away. The interior is cozy, quiet, and clean. We started with 3 Mixed Appetizers along with their complimentary warm bread. The 3 dips were all solid but nothing out of the ordinary. Good flavor, smooth & creamy texture, and great for sharing. I love ordering dishes like the Mixed Kebab Platter for Two as we get a taste of everything and it's family-style. The presentation was beautiful, the meats were tender, and I like that they paired it with rice, bulgur, and some salad. All the meats were tender and well-seasoned but could've been hotter in temperature. I particularly enjoyed the chicken & lamb adana kebabs. My other minor complaint was the sides were not enough to share and the ratio compared to the meats was off. We definitely could've used more rice with the meats. The staff were super kind & friendly the entire time. Decent try overall!
