No flavor on zucchini pancakes, salad, or manti. We waited 45 minutes before the breadsticks showed up. Other dishes followed. We saw one patron get up to get the server’s attention and another patron get up twice to get the servers attention. We could hear the server barking orders in the kitchen to the cooks. Dinner took over 2 hours. Turkish coffee was grainy as if it was instant coffee. We do not recommend thus restaurant.

Anatolia’s is excellent on all counts. We discovered this gem in New Town Williamsbutg a few weeks ago and have been back several times already. Everything we have had off the menu so far has been delicious. I would recommend Mani (beef dumplings in a Saude), the hummus , any of the swarm as, and great baklava! Atmosphere is nice and reasonably quiet, and there is inside and outside seating. Prices are reasonable given ample portions. The two servers we have had so far - Bella and Su - we’re great - friendly, helpful and efficient. If you have any taste for Mediterranean, Armenian or Turkish food - once you go once you’ll be back!

Food was good, nothing exceptional. Portion was small for the price. Experience could have been better if there were more staff to serve. Went on Father's day and there was one, one lady (not her fault, she did her best) who was serving the whole restaurant. She checked in, took orders and served by herself. So it took us almost 2hrs in the restaurant.

From the wine to the chocolate baklava, our meal was so full of flavor! The falafel appetizer was fresh and satisfying. The lamb shank was fall off the bone delicious. The special (eggplant, meat, onion, spices) was very flavorful. Please find room for the chocolate baklava. It’s light and not too sweet and soooo yummy!

This was our first visit to Anatolia Bar and Grill, and we are very impressed. The wait staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The food was truly delicious; the salad was fresh, the entree was flavorful -- probably the best lamb I've ever tasted -- and the portions were generous. The ambiance invites us to linger; the great food and drink invite relaxed conversation. We went for lunch and look forward to many returns to what will surely become a favorite restaurant.

We had a great experience at Anatolia. It looked like a family run place, and the owners were proud to share their food and heritage. We started with hummus, each had an entree (lamb shawarma and chicken), and enjoyed baklava for dessert (ranking them pistachio, chocolate-pistachio, walnut in order of deliciousness). We eat Mediterranean food fairly frequently, and this place hit the spot!.
