Nazar Turkish Restaurant & Market

This Turkish grocery store was a decent find. The place had a good selection of traditional Turkish ingredients, snacks, and fresh items that are sometimes hard to find elsewhere. I especially liked the prepared foods—they were flavorful and clearly made with care. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made the experience better. Prices were reasonable for specialty items. Overall, it’s a solid spot if you’re looking for authentic Turkish groceries and tasty ready-to-eat food.

Good place to grab and go but inside seating is available. Order ahead of time via apps or call in.

I have never tried Turkish food but it was awesome. This is a self service location you place order up front and when ready they call you for pick up. We ordered the beef momo ( small sized momo with yogurt and chilli oil) and it was good. Their Hummus and Baba ganouch was the best I have ever tried and a must have. Warning they use very little to no salt so add as per your taste. We also ordered the beef and lamb mix kebabs and that was the high light of our evening. The kebabs melts in your mouth and most important no smell. The chicken dish we order was a miss and I would not recommend anyone to order as it was bland. They offered us their special dessert of Bashbusha and Kunafa and I must compliment them it was really really good. I will be returning soon with an empty stomach. Cheers

Nazar is hands down one of my favorite Turkish spots in NY! It’s both a restaurant and grocery store in one location, which is super convenient. My go-to is the mix grill—it’s packed with all their delicious meats like lamb chop, Adana kebab, and kofte. And the white rice? I could eat that by itself—it’s that good! They offer complimentary tea, which is perfect for winter days. After dining, you pay at the grocery cashier, which makes the whole experience unique. Their lamacun is the best I’ve had in NY, freshly baked and worth the 7-10 minute wait. I still need to try their popular mix appetizers, but the specials like lentil soup and cheesy creamy chicken are top-notch. The staff are always friendly and make you feel welcome. Plenty of seating, amazing food, and great service—definitel

Very disappointed with the experience. The person taking the order had no patience and rushed me while I was trying to decide. I ordered the beef kebab and lamb kebab — both had no flavor and were not fully cooked. Definitely not coming back….
