    Very pleasant space with great ambiance with live jazz music. All the food was just amazing! We tried and highly recommend the mussels as well as the Sultan's Delight (Hunkar Begendi) and the salmon. Service was very attentions and professional. It was our first time, but certainly not the last. We'll certainly be back.

    I met a friend from out of down for a quiet lunch. Turquoise did not disappoint. I should have had the lentil soup as the beets in the beet and quinoa salad were not roasted. The Su Borek was outstanding and the Baklava was the best I ever had. Mine was an outstanding server. Would definitely go back.

    Turquoise never disappoints! They are so hospitable, and the food is delicious! Their brunch feels like a real Turkish breakfast in Istanbul.

    Food was really, really good! Every dish was so fresh snd well prepared. Turkish pizza, hummus and Turkish salad were just fantastic. And I cannot even begin to describe how fabulous was the baklava and Turkish pudding.

    Not only was the food fantastic, the service was even better. The staff was so kind and accommodating. I really appreciated how every time they came by the table, they specifically made sure my kids had everything they needed. This is exactly the type of place I will be returning to and supporting. Great place!
