    A wonderful family dinner in New York City, with so many tasty family favorites: hummus, light-as-air homemade pita and a mixed grill that brought back memories of gatherings with our extended Lebanese/Italian family. The mekanek was exceptional and just sized properly for three of us to enjoy a piece. Save room for dessert, as the baklava is divine! Ask for the magnanimous Mert to be your server if possible — you’ll be in for a treat!

    The menu choices were excellent and so was the taste. Ambience although a little noisy is very nice with excellent service levels. I am a reasonable regular to Pera for the above reasons and would recommend the restaurant to anyone looking for tasty Mediterranean cuisine.
