" My experience at NAR was just alright. While the restaurant had a stylish atmosphere and the service was polite and attentive, I found the food not as authentic as I had hoped. The dishes tasted good, but felt too modernized for my palate. The portions also were quite small, which was disappointing. I enjoyed the Turkish delight, but I expected more flavor depth in the appetizers. In the end, it was good, but not the amazing Turkish dining experience I was looking for. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m so grateful I stumbled upon NAR! The Turkish cuisine is exquisite, and the service was extremely attentive without being overbearing. I highly recommend their mezze platter followed by the Sultan's Bliss for dessert, it was heavenly! The colors and flavors in each dish were vibrant and enticing. I do think the portion sizes could be improved for the main courses, but it’s a worthy visit for anyone looking to indulge in Turkish delicacies. I am definitely planning to return with friends next month! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an overall decent experience at NAR, it’s a chic place with a nice vibe and friendly staff. While I enjoyed the food, I can’t say it was the best Turkish I’ve had in NYC. The portions left a bit to be desired. Will definitely be back but maybe not as eager as I was this time around. " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my partner for dinner at NAR to celebrate a special occasion and we were blown away! From the moment we entered, we felt welcomed by the cozy yet chic decor. The Nar Kebab was incredibly tender and flavorful, paired with a delightful smoked yogurt dip. The service was stellar; it’s evident that the staff is well-trained and passionate about their work. One issue that stood out was the price. We found it a bit on the higher side for the amount served. Nevertheless, I highly recommend NAR for its atmosphere and quality food. Can't wait to come back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" NAR has set a new standard for Turkish cuisine in NYC! The moment we sat down, we were served freshly baked bread with olive oil—so delicious! I love the creative spins on traditional dishes. The stuffed grape leaves had a surprising twist that I adored. However, the kabobs, while perfectly grilled, were a little small for the price. Had a lovely evening but just note to come hungry or you might need to order extra dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" NAR is an absolute must-visit! The food was out of this world—the manti was just like my grandmother used to make but elevated. Our server was full of recommendations and made our experience feel special. The only issue was that we were a bit cramped at our table. Still, it was worth every penny! Can’t wait to return and try the desserts next time. If you love authentic cuisine with a twist, don’t miss this restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic Turkish cuisine! I visited with a large group and was impressed with how seamlessly the staff handled everything. The dishes came out timely and were all full of flavor. The Nar Kebab was a standout. My only qualm was that I felt the portions were a bit modest. However, I would happily return for the lively atmosphere and comforting flavors. " (*Curated Review*)
