    Very very good food at this place. The atmosphere and decor of the restaurant is well done and feels super authentic. When you step into this place you don't feel like you're in Brooklyn anymore. The food was excellent as were the drinks. The lamb was one of the best lambs I've ever had and the other dishes reminded of me of the cuisine my Turkish friend's family would cook for us.

    STEAK FRITES

    Our dear friends Toby and Leslie took us there first time tonight. We ordered cheese clouds, wedges salad, curried cauliflowers, lamb kebab and steak frites. Everything tasted amazing! Fresh ingredients with flavorful spices. The cheese clouds was so light, if you close your eyes, it tastes like a delicious savory whipped creamy clouds. I recommend the cauliflower and the steaks too. They are just so delicious. I cleaned the plates with an extra pita bread. Definitely will go back just for those ones and love to try more things from the menu. Very nicely designed interior, cozy cute atmosphere where you can seat down and enjoy your meal with your loved ones and your favorite people.

    Turk's Inn is the supper-club style restaurant adjacent to the Sultan Room, where we attended to see the fabulous Kolumbo band perform. The dining room & bar space is aglow in red hues with plenty of kitsch in the design, Turkish tassels via 1970s tiki trend. Apparently the place was transported from Wisconsin where it originated in the early 1930s. The history is written on each menu btw. We enjoyed our lovely drinks accompanied by the Relish Tray of assorted Mezze and crispy chickpeas. The yummy lamb meatballs were good too. The servers were attentive and very well versed. We were happy.

    Finally got to try the food at this place after stopping in for drinks a couple of months ago. First, the Turk's relish tray was delicious! Comprised of hummus, squash dip, muhammara, and olives, and accompanied by toasted bread, this is a flavor smorgasbord. Both my friend and I found it a delicious medley of taste. We also had the house pickles, which were crunch and refreshing. My friend had the shepherd salad, which she said was fantastic. I had the steak frites. The crinkle fries were well-seasoned and crispy, the steak was just okay. Kinda tough, sinewy. I wouldn't order the dish again. The famous cheese curds are at least a one time must try. I'm not big on fried foods, but the curds were rich, tangy, and unique. I had the salty apricot cocktail, with apricot vodka, vermouth, and eau de vie. It was a good cocktail, but I ended up having two of the saffron sour. The saffron sour, made of saffron liqueur, rye, lemon, and black pepper, is complex and spicy and so easy to drink. They have so many cool looking cocktails, made with all sorts of fruits and spices. I would love to try them all. I love the kitschy decor and low, red lighting. It feels like you're dining in a Middle Eastern back alley club or in a genie's bottle. Service has been excellent both times. This time we came in at 10, thinking they closed at midnight, though it turns out they were closing at 11. They didn't rush us or make us feel badly. I apologized profusely because it was an honest mistake and I usually don't enter a place with less than two hours to eat and drink. But they were really accommodating. This is a very short walk from Company XIV. This will always be my post-show go-to!

    Cheese curds w/ hot honey and Cherry Cosmopolitan combo simply cannot be beat. Love this spot - perfect for a date, or a solo hang at the bar. Red lighting, low music, cool decor.

    Turk's Inn in Bushwick is a Turkish restaurant attached to the music venue Sultan Room with a plush, red interior styled after the original Turk's Inn in Wisconsin. We started with the cheese cloud with date syrup and the relish tray (labne, hummus, muhammara and spiced nuts). The cheese cloud was whipped into a frothy cloud-like texture and paired nicely with the sweet date syrup. For mains we went family style and shared the steak frites, lamb rack, smoked eggplant, spatchcock game hen and sides of broccolini and jeweled pilaf. The food was hearty and we definitely recommend ordering a variety of dishes and sharing

    This place has a fun vibe. You definitely come here for the ambiance. We were a large group (9 people) so we had to get the pre fix menu and we had a 1.5 hour time limit. The pre fix included: - dips and bread (quite nice, the red dip was my favorite) (4/5) - salad (3.5/5) - cabbage "steak" and lamb - since I don't eat meat I only tried the cabbage steak but I thought it was quite tasty! (4/5) - two types of fries and dip (3.5/5) - mouse dessert with pistachios and coconut (3.5/5) For drinks I got the Maggie (4.5/5) I thought this was very refreshing - I ended up reordering :). Overall it was fun, the prefix menu made it easy for a large group. I recommend to make a reservation.

    What a riot this place is! You feel like you are transported to a different time and place. The supper-club vibe needs to make a comeback. The food is good and fun to share on the rotating tray in the middle of the table. We made a very early reservation so we arrived to an empty restaurant but it soon began to fill up. Make sure you read about the history of this place. It's very interesting. Not sure I'd venture back due to its distance from home but I would recommend a visit purely for the experience.

    This is a beautiful restaurant connected to the Sultan Room venue in Bushwick. The Turks Inn was started by a couple in Minnesota in 1930s and brought to Brooklyn with much of the furniture. The food was also amazing: crispy chickpeas, hummus plate, cheese curds, curried cauliflower and drinks were all outstanding. Highly recommend this place if you're seeing a show or just eating out. Lots of vegan options as well and the service is warm and friendly. We saw the New Deal at the Sultan Room and Joe Russo and the band were sitting next to us.

    Awesome ambiance. Service is always awesome. They have the most amazing olives and their grilled cabbage is always a hit with guest.

    This place is dooooope. Great vibe, cool crowd, impressive décor, great service, delicious cocktails, but most importantly, AMAZING food. We ordered basically everything on the menu: Spiced nuts Olives & artichokes Hummus Kebab shop calamari Turkish BBQ lamb ribs HIGHLY recommend getting the Tahini White Russian cocktail for dessert. Would definitely come back here.

The quality of their food has always been top notch and honestly is my favorite spot for a Turkish meal. Their hummus and basically all their skewers, kababs and grilled meats are simply amazing. Fast forward, I haven't gone to Taci's Beyti for over a year and I just recently went for our anniversary dinner over the weekend. Place still felt the same, so I ordered my hummus, mixed grill and the chicken kebab for the misses. When The entrees arrived, I was a bit disappointed. They seem to have changed what use to come with their main entrees. Gone is the bed of thinly sliced onions under your meats, so is the roasted pepper and also the roasted tomato. Three items I actually enjoyed having with my entree. They also changed the pita under the meats as well but they replaced it with a very sad salad instead, with no dressing or even a vinaigrette at that. Just plain dry leaves with some red onions. They also have two prices now, one for cash and one for credit, the cost has gone up (which I understand) but they've also cut the portions and what use to come with it. Yes the food is still good but after that last trip I am rethinking about ever going back. I am disappointed that either through choice, greed, or whatever they decided to cut back. Time to scout and try some other Turkish restaurants in the boroughs I suppose, and no I am not leaving a one star review, their food quality and taste hasn't changed. I am just very disappointed.

    Have you ever seen the misadventures of Nedim Sahin, the guy who went viral with videos at his…read moreBaruthane Pilavcisi restaurants? He claimed to taste the first spoonful of each new batch of food to ensure that it meets his mom's standards. There is a well-known Turkish proverb he quotes from - "pilavdan dönenin kaşığı kırılsın". In literal translation it's "break the cooking spoon of the pilaf maker who falters in its task". It's understood as either "see it though come hell or high water" or "bring your A-game or don't bother showing up". Eh, I wonder if the guy who served me this kofte platter at BayRidge Turkish cafe has ever heard the quote? When it came to Turkish food, certain items are universally loved, like çorba (soup) and kofte (meatballs). Çorba has such an elevated status that a commander of the Ottoman elite military corps (Janassary) is known as a çorbaci (soup man). Even today, the term is used in modern Turkish slang as "boss". There's an old saying in Turkish that the best kofte is made by your mom, but the best çorba is from the local kebab joint. What makes for good Turkish kofte? It's supposed to be fluffy juicy pillows of meat the size of say, a mini Snickers bar, made with ground beef and sometimes lamb, with some diced lamb tail fat whipped into the mixture, seasoned with sweet and savory spices like cumin, mint, coriander, mace and such, then grilled over coals. In Turkey the usual service is with a bowl of buttery Turkish lentil soup (often accompanied by their bread), ice cold Ayran, piyaz (navy bean salad), then kofte fresh off the grill, and maybe some rice pilaf (buttery rice with bits of toasted orzo within) on the side. Who does a good version in Brooklyn? Kofte Piyaz in Sunset Park - it ain't cheap, though. So what is up with this 15 dollar kofte platter I got at Bayridge cafe? Well, the size of the kofte is odd, like breakfast sausages (my wife is much less charitable on the comparison and said it looked like something from a kitty litter box). It tasted dry and shriveled up, with no flavor at all, like it was air fried once too many. The iceberg lettuce and tomato salad that came on the side just bleeds off the mediocrity. The rice is just white rice and not pilaf. The inexplicable part is when they serve up lentil soup and gave us slices of American white bread. Not toasted, not buttered, and certainly not Turkish bread. Me and my wife bursted out laughing. The soup is...serviceable, but it certainly won't make any Ottoman Sultan dance for joy or fuel warriors into battle - it tasted flat (the version that I make has tomato and pepper paste, onions, garlic and dried mint...which this didn't have) and we didn't see the usual shaker of aleppo (pul) peppers for sprinkling onto the soup to give it a kick. The bean stew that we ordered (Kuru Fasulye) was watery and without much distinctive flavors. So, eh, is this place bad per-se? Not really. Despite the disappointing kofte, it comes with a small bit of eggplant salad that was honestly not too bad. The Turkish tea was on-point (well, they used Caykur Tomurcuk, which is a Turkish Earl Grey grade) and they used a double boiler to do the tea, which means that it's legitly brewed in the Turkish fashion with the right flavors. The Tulumba wasn't nearly as good as, say...Safa in Istanbul, but it isn't a disappointingly soggy mess like the ones at Djerdan Borek or coyingly sweet with salad oil stench like the ones at Artion bakery in Astoria. It was like how you imagine a good churro would be - warm, not too oily, sweet but not too much so. Crisp exterior, honeyed interior, goes well with a cup of hot tonic Turkish tea, served strong and fragrant. So yeah, it's not hopeless. But geez, guys, save your wonderbread for the American sandwiches and toss pitas or Turkish bread with your Turkish fares, and talk to your mom about serving up proper kofte. I can excuse the soup but that kofte is a travesty. Köftedan dönenin isgaralar kırılsın - either make something worthwhile or don't bother at all.

The inside of the restaurant is decorated nicely, however one of the lights above us was flickering for the entire meal which was annoying at first, but we eventually tuned it out. We both shared the Rana's Table. This was a really cool experience. This smorgasbord includes a sampling of 8 appetizers, 4 mezes, 1 entree, 1 side, and 1 dessert. For the entree we chose the Iskender Steak. For the side we got the Yogurt Potatoes. The dessert was chosen for us - some sort of pistachio mousse. All the food was good.

Though it only came with one egg each, so we ended up ordering an additional serving on the side. The sides are served family-style and include a nice range of sweet and savory options. The spinach and cheese börek was very good and paired well with the eggs and yogurt. I also really enjoyed the sucuk (pan-fried sausage) and the kızartma (potatoes with eggplant and tomato). On the sweeter side, the akıtma (thin pancakes) with toppings like mixed berries, sweet tahini, jam, and cream was a fun "dessert" element. Overall, it was a really enjoyable and unique brunch experience. I liked the family-style format, and it felt like a good value for the amount of food, though we personally wanted a bit more protein. The space itself felt warm, homey, and natural. One thing to note: there did not seem to be many gluten-free options within the prix-fixe, so that is something to keep in mind. Would recommend giving Rana Fifteen a try!
