Bosphorus II, Denville

Has anyone been to this restaurant? I would like to try it, but it has gotten extremely divergent reviews. I would like the opinion of other CHounders.

    I had lunch there today. We had the shepherd salad, sigari borek and stuffed grape leaves for appetizers and I had a gyro platter for myself. The food here is pretty good. I've eaten at the Bosphorus in Lake Hiawatha and the shepherd salad there had a little too much vinegar and the hummus was kind of chauky. The prices are pretty reasonable so I think it is worth trying out.

      I have eaten there about 25 times, and taken out nearly that many. The appetizers are largely wonderful. Generous portions, great big flavors. The grilled salmon, if not overdone (tell the chef!) is excellent. The kebabs are terrific, according to people we dine with. The spinach saute over pilaf is absolutely delicious. The felafel is fresh, crisp, and delicious.
      It's BYOB, and the cost is relatively low. Give it a try!
