Best Turkish Restaurants in Far Rockaway

I had dinner at Zara's for the second time yesterday. Both times, the food was delicious! My friends and I ordered the Mix appetizers. It has hummus, babagunnush, lebni, eggplant sauce, and stuffed grape leaves. Of course, we had the balloon bread! I ordered chicken sauté for my entree. It came with white rice. It was delicious! It was chunks of chicken in a red sauce with onions, mushrooms, peppers, garlic, and other seasonings. My friend had the lamb chops, which were excellent. My other friend had the mixed grill, which is a mix of beef and chicken shish kebab, adana kebab, and kofte. There was so much meat that my friend had to take some home. For dessert, we had kunefe, which is out of this world! It is shredded dough with unsalted cheese and honey syrup. It is topped with pistachios and served hot. We also had Turkish coffee, which is the strongest coffee I have ever tasted! The cocktails are also fantastic! The ambiance is lovely, and the bathrooms are modern, beautiful, and very clean! The only problem we had was that our waiter was inattentive. He did not check on us once our food arrived. We had to keep asking the busboy when we needed something. Overall, we had a positive experience. I will definitely go back.

Food tastes great, atmosphere is good. Have eaten here numerous times. It never dissapoints.
