Great food great service. Beautiful atmosphere. Would come back!The caesar salad was great

The restaurant location on a corner in front of a Walmart shopping center makes one question whether this will be a good restaurant. Upon entering, this question is put to rest! The restaurant dining room is full of light, and tastefully decorated! We ordered from a large menu that offered lots of options. The appetizer tray held 8 uniquely seasoned dishes. Our chicken shish kabobs and lamb kabobs tasted great, having been marinated before cooking. The waiters were friendly and polite and took good care of us. We definitely plan to return! read more

Servers come around to check on you, all are very nice. They put effort into your meal. Others at the table got a large platter so the waiter gave a fun presentation of platting the food and even feeding one person the first bite. They really designed the interior to feel like you're in an upscale restaurant set in another culture. The wall art is beautiful! Food was great too, we loved everything we got! read more

A huge beautiful restaurant. The staff was friendly and professional. Food came out relatively fast. We had shepherd salad and fried wheat balls as appetizers. For entrees we had iskender kebab, salmon special, lamb sauté, and Turkish meatballs. All were great. Rice can with the lamb and the meatballs dishes. read more

This might be the best Turkish restaurant in Monmouth County! The ambiance is very relaxing . The food is solid Turkish and not pretentious. And the food is reasonably priced with good portions. Now if the service was just a tad more engaged, the place would be stupidly great. We had an engaging waiter who delivered at the beginning attentive service but after the delicious main was served, got lost for the night. We waited and waited for the table to be cleared after finishing dinner. We had the mixed grill with three or four different meats in it covered by a thin pastry and it was great! So were the boreks, which are fillo dough filled with feta wrapped in a cigar shape. The mix grill was suppose to come with veggies which never made an appearance. Still, it was great and leftovers good the next day. It's BYO so that's a plus. Got Turkish coffee and tea after the meal along with baklava and it was a nice finish. read more

Visited Golden Horn recently and had a good experience overall. We ordered the mixed grill with cover bread, and it was good. The chicken kebabs were just ok, but Adana and other beef kebabs were great. Juicy and well-seasoned! The service was decent--nothing exceptional, but everything arrived in a timely manner and the staff was polite. Definitely worth checking out if you're craving well-made kebabs. read more

From the moment we walked into this incredible hidden Turkish gem near the Jersey Shore Outlets, we knew we were in for something special, but we had no idea just how awesome it would be. If you're anywhere near Tinton Falls or Asbury Park and you don't stop here for dinner, you're definitely missing out. The soul of our experience? Omer. Omer wasn't just our server... he was our host, our comedian, and our friend by the end of the night. Kind, funny, gracious, and genuinely attentive, he treated us like long-lost family. He didn't just take our order, he took the time to get to know us and made our evening fun. Now, the food? Next level. Everything from the beverages and mocktails, to the fresh-out-of-the-oven pita bread served with olive oil on the side (with little olive slices swimming in it) to the appetizers, to the entrees was all stunning. If you love filet mignon and mushroom cream sauce, then stop reading over the other entree choices and just order the filet mignon with cream sauce. It's happiness on a plate. You'll wonder how you ever lived without it. We were pretty full after our entrees so we asked for the check. But Omer, with a grin, ensured us that we wanted dessert. He knew something we didn't. And the moment he rolled over the dessert cart, we knew he was absolutely right. There was a variety of options including a tres leches cake. Omer said it was his personal favorite. He told us it had just been made fresh before we arrived, and it was already the third tray they'd gone through by 6:30 PM that day. I thought to myself, "What does a Turkish restaurant know about tres leches cake?" OMG! Let me answer that for you. Everything. They know everything about tres leches cake, and things the rest of us didn't even know we needed to know about tres leches cake. This cake was divine. It had a heavenly layer on top with a texture and taste I honestly can't even describe. Just know it was otherworldly. When you're eating it, the world stops. Time doesn't exist. It's just you and the cake. Even my wife, who doesn't like tres leches cake because she says it's a "wet cake," couldn't stop raving. She said it isn't even soggy. It's just perfect. So if she loved it, then you know it's the real deal. If you're reading this and you're hungry and in the area, or just feel like taking a road trip , don't think twice. And you're welcome in advance for solving your dinner plans. Lol. And don't forget to ask for Omer. If he's there, then you're in for a wonderful dining experience all around. We're definitely looking forward to going back the next time we're in the area! read more

Golden Horn Restaurant - A tray of Tres Leches Cake on the top shelf... Yum! - Mediterranean Near Me - Tinton Falls, New Jersey

Food very basic hot looked great but flat music boring no culture no atmosphere. Views of an Arby's restaurant. Waited pre occupied no personally no smile .while we had appetizers dinner came out we felt rushed .I will not be coming here again to spent my hard earned money here. read more

We have been wanting to try this place for a while. Absolutely beautiful and clean inside. Tyler our waiter really cared. Best service we have had in a while. We tried something new and weren't disappointed-lahmacun (meat pie) we had as a great appetizer. As a meal we split the mixed grill special for 2.... Def can feed 3! Such a generous portion we had a lot leftover. We ordered a dessert that was like a chocolate tres leches. So so good! They have Dubai chocolate desserts that we are going back next time with the kids. We met the woman who makes the desserts DAILY- nothing sits. She explained everything in kitchen is made to order and she makes small amounts of desserts at a time so that it's fresh. Super fresh and you can tell. Both my husband I rolled out of here. If you've never had this food before the waiter can help you along- I say TRY IT!!!! read more

Absolutely recommend this place. It is new to the area. I was turned off by the name, figuring it was a chain or something, but it's not. It's a hidden gem. It's beautiful inside. Food and service is great. Totally authentic and unique. We got the dip sampler and all six were amazing. And the mixed grill for two which was awesome and came in a giant cooked pita bread. Presentation was great. Tres Leche dessert was divine. Husband got the custard which he said was just OK. It's BYO, which is also nice if that's what you're looking for. Great date night place.

Stopped in on our way home today ; we both love Mediterranean food, and noticed the Golden Horn was finally open! Housed in the building that previously housed Ruby Tues, it had that same funky smell when I entered! The new owners, who own a couple of other Golden Horn restaurants, have hired professional chefs, and it shows. One of the owners stopped by everyone's table and shared how they decided to open their 3rd(?) restaurant. She was very personable & welcoming. Though prices are crazy high for this area ($105. for 2 for lunch), the food presentation was impeccable and the taste was out-of-this-world delicious! Everything was fresh, except for my dessert, which I returned. Will definitely go again, but for a special occasion, or when I get a second income! read more

Golden Horn would be a good choice if you have time for a pleasant & relaxing lunch. It's a nicely decorated restaurant, has lots of natural light from huge windows, lots of Turkish favorites on the menu and a lunchtime menu as well. Service was friendly, food arrived quickly & you can definitely take your time to enjoy and share a variety of dishes. There's even a dessert cart that can be wheeled to your table for you to see samples of everything before you select the item you want. I'm looking forward to going back again the next time we're in the area for shopping (it's very close to the Jersey Shore Premium Outlets and it's right next door to a huge Walmart location). read more

OMG SO DELICIOUS! We love Turkish food and my husband being an ethnic Turk knows very good Turkish food! This place is gorgeous and the food is next level delicious!

I told you so!! ...Large tables, comfortable seating in a beautifully created space. Very clean. Lots of parking in the large shared parking lot. Will be back again & again!! read more
