    It was the first time there at Lulu’s. I read that it had great reviews so I invited my daughter in law and my stepdaughter in laws mom and my grandson. The food was incredible. Started with halloumi cheese,tzatziki and some other dips. They were flavorful and delicious The pita was freshly made. They kept serving more.. Then2 of us had pasta as a main course. I’m a vegetarian so they made mine without chicken. Very tasty. My stepdaughter in laws mom had chicken kebab and rice and she it is was seasoned and flavorful. She said it was the best chicken she ever had. Very tender and juicy. It looked delicious. We were too full to have dessert. We will definitely will go back again. Parking was great too. Didn’t have to valet as it’s in the ShopRite shopping center.

    We enjoyed the lunch special which included a drink, an appetizer and an entree. It was reasonably priced. I had an iced tea, hummus and pita bread as my appetizer and chicken kebab as my main course which was served with rice and a small salad on the plate.

    What a wonderful Turkish gem on 2nd avenue. For start to finish an excellent experience. A warm welcome, followed by equally warm house made bread accompanied by the most delicious olive oil you have ever tasted brought to the table. For an excellent value, book a " Date Night" reservation, you will get an really great bang for your buck. The Turkish Wine went excellent with his Shrimp kabbab entree and mine Kofte entree. We ended my Birthday dinner with Turkish Tea and the house made cold baklava. I'm So happy I found this Gem to celebrate my Birthday. I (we) recommend and will most definitely will be back for more. Thank You Sahara! #SousChefApproved
