Food is very authentic, huge portions, they do not skimp on meat and veg and they do not put cheap filler on your plate ...the ground meat kofte is 100% meat and does not have breadcrumbs and other crap in there. I come here with my Turkish friend. The bread is made in house and slaps so hard, I always take every bit of leftover bread home. This bread (and their lahmacun, and their kebab and their soups and their adana and their breakfast, everything is good) would even pass muster in a Turkish restaurant in Turkey. (IYKYK). Sadly, they do not let you purchase bread for takeout, so you will just have to ask for a lot of bread when you dine in and take it all home with you.

I'm very fond of the interior which is charming and understated, with an area for prayer for Muslims which is exceptionally convenient. We got lamb shank with Kabuli Pulao and chicken kofta kebab with pulao. Both were absolutely amazing. The lamb is extremely soft and tender while being juicy at the same time. Their chicken kebab is amazing too; the rice is some of the best I've had. And we always generously douse it in their white sauce, some of the best sauce I've had. I think the flavor profile is great even for people who can't handle spice, it's flavorful and very manageable even for mild Western palates.

Walking in the restaurant wasn't busy at all and it was pristine. There were plenty open tables and no line so I was able to order quickly at with ease. All of the toppings for the bowls looked delicious and absolutely fresh so I made my own concoction with chicken schwarma, super greens, brown rice and literally 10 other toppings including lentils, tzatziki, cucumber salad, olives, couscous and a partridge in a pear tree lol. Soooooo many options all delicious. They also make their crispy pita chips to order so I added a portion to my meal and happily waited the 2-3 minutes for them to be dropped and fried to the perfect golden crispy consistency. I also got the cucumber mint refresher which was sugar free and refreshing! My entire meal was delicious and I'm honestly thinking about the next time I'll be able to go back because it was not just a yummy lunch but pretty healthy overall minus those pita chips ;) Oh and the customer service was wonderful as well.

I eat pretty plainly, so I only had rice with some chicken and a "glob" of hummus. (There were MANY other toppings!) I wasn't t crazy about the chicken seasoning and it kept repeating on me. Again though, not my favorite fare no matter where from. The chicken I had was very tender; the rice was cooked perfectly. I wont be a patron here, but if you like Mediterranean food, you'll probably love this place!

Classy, tasteful, delightful…read more On this little corner of Collingswood, in a sea of so many Italian and pizza places, this gorgeous renovated Turkish restaurant is a wonderful respite from Haddon Ave. For our Lunch Ladies group, we shared a wheel of cold appetizers, all slightly different from each other. I have no idea what it was called, but the one that was slightly spicy and had a similar flavor to a Mexican salsa was a surprise and a delight. I loooooooved the fluffy bread that was served to the table. Fresh, steaming hot, and the perfect utensil for testing out the dips. I'm not sure what it was called - it wasn't a pita, I don't think, since it was much lighter. But 10/10, no notes, give me 14 of them. I was craving beef, so I went for the shish kebab. Hands down, one of the most memorable I've had in a very long time. So tender. I loved the perfectly grilled vegetables. I absolutely loved adored the rice - so well seasoned, light and fluffy. Finally, baklava. I would say this was my only disappointment. The serving was miniscule. Service was lovely.

The rice was also surprising flavorful.

We found out that most of the people (regulars) who usually come here are on their vacation season so it was not an issue getting a six-top reservation with only a day's notice. The restaurant is huge with at least two mega rooms downstairs and one upstairs. We actually went to the upstairs door to check in only to be told we had to go to the downstairs door and check in there. Once we did, the staff asked if we would be ok with being in the "party" room where there would be a DJ. We were fine with that and the staff was more than happy to accommodate us. Once at our table, the extensive menus made it almost too difficult to decide what we wanted. May want to consider reducing the food options here. My wife and I split a tomahawk steak. Once we ordered it, we were told we should probably move to an eight-top because we would have more space. The place was almost empty at 6:15pm on a Saturday so we got to move and give us some more room. We also had two serving of Plov, a prime NY strip, a roasted beet salad, and a chicken fingers with fries. We added some bread, too, along with some compote. The Plov was some of the best we've ever had with lots of tender meat. Both steaks were cooked to our liking. Fries were killer and the chicken fingers were fine. I did not care for the compote as I'm used to it with fruit still in the drink. At about 7pm, the DJ started but there was no separate party which is what we thought was going to show up. The DJ sang some and played up-tempo dance music but also threw in some known music like Ob-Bla-Dee Ob-Bla-Dah from the Beatles also in the dance music style. So much fun after drinking a lot of our BYOB alcohol. Service was excellent and more than accommodating for us. He even advised when we were getting ready to leave that it was raining hard and we could stay until it died down. The restaurant is colorful with lights and designs on the walls including projector lights and white linen sheets above. The place was clean and also the bathrooms on the lower rear level. $305 not including tip for six adults which included two steaks, two Plov, chicken fingers with fries, three breads, and a compote. I mention a lot with my reviews that I'd come back to a place. I really can't wait to return to Samarkand! It was just a lot of fun with excellent food and service. I hope it's just as good when the place is slammed and full.

As soon as you can find the time go here. When it comes to Mediterranean / Turkish food I'm legitimately questioning if I've ever had any as good as what I just had tonight at Sofra. Every dish was what I wanted it to be. Every part of the cold appetizer platter was perfect. The hummus was the best hummus. The eggplant was addictive. The crushed veggies were delicious. And then my grilled chicken combo came out and it was all awesome. I've been to places with similar cuisine and I've enjoyed it, but I've never really been blown away. I'll get all excited by the sight of meats on long skewers or delicious looking dips only to eat them and think, "Yeah that's pretty good, but I don't think I'd pay for it again." But at Sofra it was like someone finally got things right. It not only looked beautiful, but the food tasted as seasoned as delicious as I'd always wanted this type of cuisine to be. It it a little pricey? Yes. Normally I'm cheap as hell and would write a place off if the food was more than I wanted to pay on a night out, but this food was so good that I already know for a fact I'll be back. It's worth it. If you get the app platter maybe split it with three of four people instead of two. We were stuffed. Go give them your business because we all know the location is a TOUGH one. Only one side of the street can turn in and it's easy not to notice it there as you zoom by on 13. But you should really go there like... today.
