    Amazing Authentic Mediterranean Food! This is a place we choose when we want to have something “healthy”. The plates have the intention and flavor it deserves. I’ve had Chicken & Lamb Adana, Red Lentil Soup, and more. Highly Recommend 👍🏼

    What a great experience and awesome atmosphere especially the hospitality. The hole staff was amazing. The food speaks for itself. Mustafa was our waiter and his attitude was very welcoming. The area is filled with happiness. The location is by the water. It's in the cut but a very spacious place. I loved everything about it and will definitely be returning. Thank you all for the amazing attention. Our family enjoyed every little bit of our time there. See you soon. This is a diamond in the rough spot.

    Turkuaz was such a delight on a cold fall night. First of all, the restaurant is near the water so there’s that. When you walk in, you’re greeted by this friendly lady. She seated us. I had the doner kebab and it was so good. It was tender and the salad it came was was super delicious and refreshing. I’m not big on beets but their side beet salad was good too. I ordered fries which were seasoned to perfection. The Baba Ganoush was excellent and the pita was fresh when it came out first thing. For dessert we had the custard and knafeh which were also yummy. Service was excellent and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. Thank you for an amazing experience :)

    Mediterranean restaurant with nice water view. Recommendation: fried liver, lamb chop, and donor kabab. Their highlight is the grill. I like the outdoor seating. It is not hot and you can enjoy the water view as well as the breeze. The only problem is that when the wind blows to the wrong direction, I am inside the smoke LOL They have many options for meat/type of grill. Service is fantastic. The waiter is amazing. He greeted us with friendly smile and offer us suggestions with enthusiasm. Highly recommend if visit places near Riverhead.

    This little spot near the water is so cute and wonderful! The outdoor seating and view are beautiful. The food was equally as beautiful! The meat was so juicy and delicious. I wish I had taken a picture of my plate. It was wiped clean!

    If you're out east looking to try Turkish food this is a great spot I would recommend.

    The food was prepared fresh and not overcooked. The waitress was very friendly and accommodating. The choices are not bad for vegan or vegetarian. They will accommodate you if you need meat free options. The coffee was fabulous and so was the dessert. Great place to go for lunch, dinner or date night. They have an outdoor patio which quaint and cozy. It has a nice view of the water, too. The parking is not easy because of nearby attractions but is worth the walk if you can not find a spot nearby. The restrooms were also very clean. Overall, it is a nice place, reasonably priced and authentic, Turkish cuisine. I will be back again! Great little place to eat, especially if you are heading to the wineries or are on your way back. It is also not far from Tanger outlets.

    Today was our first time at Tukuaz Grill. I was here many years ago but after seeing it on News 12 East End, that sparked my interest. We ordered the humus and the babaganoush appetizers. I have no pictures but I will say we devoured them quickly! They were both tasty and excellent. We just needed to ask for more pita. For lunch we had the lamb kebab, Doner platter and the Falafel. Here’s my take on the food. The portions are all very nice and came out hot. My wife enjoyed her Falafel and m my daughter in law enjoyed her Doner platter. My Kebab was 8 pieces of lamb but I thought that the seasoning was kind of bland. I was expecting that string lamb flavor like when you are biting into a nice Lamb Gyro at the diner! Again, it wasn’t bad, I just didn’t get that “wow” of flavor that I was expecting from the Lamb. I think the meat was missing a little char to it as well. I also tasted the meat from the Doner platter and felt the same about the seasoning. My daughter in law said it was delicious so maybe it’s just me….. who knows, Covid again? I hood not LOL! I will go back but then I will go for the Lamb Gyro.

    The fact that I'm taking the time to write a review just means I'm annoyed. The outdoors seating and setup is beautiful..no doubt. I went with my mom and we were seated at this small round table outdoors. I just got over a back injury and sat on a folding chair. After a while I asked if we could move to a picnic table right next to us as my back was bothering me and the sun was beaming in my mom's eyes. Rudely the waitress said no, dinner is being served soon. I didn't see a problem as there were other picnic tables that had 2 people sitting together and 4 tables were empty. The waitress said I could sit next to another couple at their table. Wth? Anyway, the food looks amazing but was bland except for the lamb gyro my mom had which was very tasty. After dropping 100+ on a bill and not being able to be comfortable I will never go back there. When we were leaving there were 8 open picnic tables. Poor management on their part. Also, when the bill came there was a 3% charged already calculated in for a credit card yet they did not know whether I was going to pay cash or not.

    This was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. I’m blown away! Thank you so much for this special food, worth every penny and more. Also, I ordered pickup, but I could already tell how extremely nice and attentive all of the staff were. Amazing place!

    Got the cigar appetizer and the gyro with fries. Both were delicious. The shepherd salad was good, but a bit on the bland side. Needed salt to improve the flavor. The service is amazing. The food comes out quickly. The servers are always nearby and are very on top of things. Friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere is lovely. Casual outdoor area near the river. Tasty food, great service and a relaxing outdoor atmosphere.

    Food was decent although plates more like a food truck than a dine in restaurant. Great lamb chops. Too much sauce and salt on some other dishes. Ambience not great - bees outside, food on the patio bricks, dogs lying about. Inside quite tight, did not turn on the ac (79 degrees at our table), flies, even a small lizard on the floor near our table. Waitress was very kind though, just can’t help the tight and somewhat grimy interior. Probably should do take out and avoid food that is too saucy.
