SO happy I came here! I don't think I've ever before had real Sri Lankan food so when I saw this…read moreplace was nearby, I jumped at the chance. I ordered the Sri Lankan crab curry which was perfect! Sri Lankan food, while similar to Indian food, actually has quite a few differences in base taste profile. The curry was bright, stew-y almost, and very authentic, with its prominent chopped spices (cloves, sliced onions, tomatoes, curry leaves). The crab is difficult to eat. Super tasty but be warned that you may have to go 'Darryl Hannah in Splash' to get to all that crabby goodness. This is a new place, opened by a husband and wife-- super nice, btw. Space is small and not pretentious. It really is all about the food. The menu is quite extensive, offering a range of regional fare for food exploration or to return to some childhood favorites. Reasonably priced.

I had enough left over for another portion or two of meat and a portion of rice. The papadum (crispy bread savory) they give in the beginning as a complimentary start is an easy binge. The service didn't rush me which is nice. The ambiance is a cute intimate setting. Did you know that out of red meat and poultry that goat has the least cholesterol? It doesn't taste gamey when it's fresh and halal haha. You're welcome. Enjoy.

The Bosphorus, the 32-kilometer (20-mile)-long north-south strait, has been a waterway of the…read morehighest importance since ancient times in Turkey. Its English name comes from a Greek legend: Zeus had an affair with a beautiful woman named Io. When Hera, his wife, discovered his infidelity, she turned Io into a cow and created a horsefly to sting her on the rump. Io jumped clear across the strait. Thus, "bous" = "cow" and "poros" = "crossing place": Bosphorus = "crossing place of the cow." Located off of busy Franklin Avenue in Nutley, my partner, our friends, and I have decided on our dinner at this family-owned-and-run BYOB establishment, which has been open since 1995. A reservation was made for a party of 4 by calling their restaurant. Upon arrival after three years, we were welcomed by Nora, the owner, and made our way to a table by the piano inside, evoking a cozy, thoughtfully designed, upscale vibe with music playing softly. Their menu features Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine. For starters, we decided on the Puffed Rill Pastry and Grape Leaves. Our main meal consisted of all lamb dishes (Lamb Shish Kebab, Beyti Kebab, Lamb Chops, and Lamb Sauté). Our food was fresh, well seasoned, and cooked to perfection, accompanied by a beautifully presented dish. Everything was authentically made with love here. Wish we could have stayed for dessert, as they looked amazing, but some of us were in a rush. It's definitely on the higher end cost but worth the taste. Our visit ended with a hug and a piece of candy.

There are several reasons why I'm giving this such a high rating…read more Firstly, the food. Not only do you get a chance to try a variety of regional Indian curries, but they also offer a Seasonal 'emu of specialty selections that you may not think to try. I like that they offer these innovative or socially selections so people can try the real tastes of India. Addie talk to selection is the QUALITY! They clearly use real, fresh ingredients because I had no discomfort after our meal, which tends to be common after eating at many Indian restaurants. I am my scientific proof; food quality is top notch! The service. All wait staff were friendly and kitchen ran like a smooth operation. Given that the restaurant is a small space, it becomes more essential that staff are knowledgeable and coordinated, as was the case here. Everyone was on their A game. Space is small but charming. In Upper Montclair but not at that busy intersection. Parking is on the street, metered. Not ideal but it is what it is. Overall, you definitely get a top quality experience here and this place is totally worth checking out.

When it comes to service, one is treated like you're their number one priority. I would suggest they install an awning to control the draft and the chill of winter. The outside lightings could use an upgrade as it looks too gloomy. The exit sign needs to be straightened as it is dangling on the wall. In regard to people waiting for take-out in pjs and flip flops, take away from the dining experience.
