★★★★★ 5.0 Josh V · Mar 2026

We went here during the peak periods of the weekend. We had friends who made a reservation for us. We got the meat platter and it was delicious. The meat came out juicy and tender. Rice was soft and salad that came with it is fresh. The order was enough to feed 6 people.

★★★★★ 5.0 Shukhrat Maks · Jan 2026

Very tasty authentic Turkish restaurant with good varieties of Turkish cuisine. If you come with group of 6 or more people definitely go with mixed grills, it comes with fancy presentation. Very friendly and helpful staff. I really enjoyed dessert "tres Leche", otherwise if you are around, this is definitely good Mediterranean cuisine I would recommend.

The food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was super relaxed. The staff were genuinely kind and professional, making the whole experience even better. My husband and I had a wonderful time and will definitely be coming back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Danielle Delgado · Nov 2025

Such a beautiful business and lovely staff and managers. The food and teas were delicious! Also, if you’re celebrating a birthday they do such an amazing cultural birthday celebration.

★★★★★ 5.0 Yasmein Jhury · Aug 2025

Zara Forest Grill is such a gem! The food here is incredible — the Turkish mix grill was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly, and the Turkish breakfast was honestly the best breakfast I’ve ever had in my life. Everything tasted so fresh and authentic. The vibes of the restaurant are warm and inviting, and the staff are super nice and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Definitely one of my favorite places now — I’ll be coming back again and again!
