We just came from dinner there.
We had lamb kebab (too much fat and chewy), beef kebab (chewy) and lule kebab (bland), dumpling soup (salty) and ordered kutab to go. See picture of burned kutab. Overpriced and not worth it, and it out of the way. I do not recommend and won't go back.

Despite the wild storm last night, we ventured to this establishment for some traditional kababs and soup--and we were pleasantly surprised. The meal we shared was more than enough for six people, leaving our bellies happily full without breaking the bank. One of the reasons we love coming here is the friendly staff and consistently high-quality meats. The ambiance, though simple, is inviting and sets the stage for a satisfying dining experience. Despite the rain keeping the usual crowd at bay, we still enjoyed our time and look forward to returning.
Be the first to ReplyFabulous food.
We had never had Azerbaijani cooking before -- a cross between Turkish and Georgian. No booze, but a nice liquor store right next door. We came in a Monday night, the place was empty, so we got immediate attention. Don't know how service would be with a full house, but the staff is very nice. We had them recommend their favorite dishes, and we went with their suggestions, which may explain why it was so good. Stick to their advice and you won't go wrong.

I've had this place bookmarked for a while and wanted to try with friends. We walked in at 7 on Saturday and were seated right away. They did get busy after we sat down and ordered food. Our waiter was nice and suggested a couple of dishes for us to try and was patient with us since it was our first time here. I'm giving it a 3 star because the dishes come out 1 at a time but they did apologized for the delays because they were busy. The large kebab plate which had all the kebabs we had ordered came last which is fine, i understand when a place is busy. The reason for the 3 star is because the chicken kebab was still raw... I called the first waiter and told him & showed him it's still raw and he just took it away and didn't say anything. I'm not sure if he didn't understand English so that's fine. But he brought it back out and everything was thrown to a smaller plate with new chicken skewers... So I don't know how to feel about this experience. Also fyi I like lamb but my friends aren't big fans of lamb and they thought the chicken lulya & kutaby with chicken was gamey. I assume they used the same ground chicken for lulya as the kutaby. I personally likes it.

Came here for husband birthday earlier this week and he loved it. The staff was attentive and my husband said he loved their humor and jokes. I didn't understand it as they were speaking in Russian. Ambiance was cozy and nice as usual and they had high chair for my daughter which was a plus. Food this time around was okay thou. Could had been better for the price. Spent about $74 including tips.
Be the first to ReplyCozy Eastern European restaurant tucked away in the parking
Cozy Eastern European restaurant tucked away in the parking lot of a liquor store. Interior was a lot of wood giving it a cabin like feeling. We came early on a Friday night and were seated immediately; however, it looked like they were setting up a lot of tables for bigger groups, so I think we would have had a harder time getting seated later at night. We started with the tomato salad which included onions, jalapeños, scallions, dill, Anna generous amounts of oil. Nicely seasoned and delicious. Next we had the veal tongue which was served with horseradish, onions, olives, and dill. Tongue was great too. Next up was the fried potatoes with mushrooms. Super savory. Mix of very crispy potatoes with some greasier ones at the bottom. Another delicious dish. For the main course we shared chicken kebabs and lamb lulya kebab. Both were generously seasoned and came with some savory rice. Meats were very juicy too. Dishes came out incredibly quickly. Staff was very attentive. There was one gender neutral restroom.

The kharcho soup is absolutely delicious. To order chicken cutlets brought lamb. Unflavored mashed potatoes. The food is very tasteless. Disordered. No apologies

This is a review for a simple takeout order, midday on a Saturday. I'm reluctant to give 5 stars, but not sure what else to do. The staff made it clear I was welcome to get takeout and I ordered their borscht soup and took their recommendation for some sort of lamb kabab with rice. It was simple, straight forward and quite delicious. These folks have it down.
Be the first to ReplyCame by again with family on a Saturday morning 1130am.
Place wasn't busy at all and spacious. Tried several things here family style and the highlight this time was the GURU HINGAL. Its minced lamb meat with tail fat and onions and handmade dough. Reminded me of wonton skins with ground lamb meat piled on top. It was flavorful and delicious. Comes with yogurt sauce which gave a nice contrast to the heavy meat. The lamb did not taste gamey at all. Highly recommend this dish. We tried the chicken shish which was quite tender but not something I would rave about. Lamb lulya kebab was still pretty flavorful and good. Mother in laws chicken was a bit overcooked this time so I didnt enjoy it. The mushroom and potatoes was pretty good. Family enjoyed the food and would like to come back again.
Be the first to ReplyGood food and decent service.
The place is inside a parking lot and easily seen from the main road.
Be the first to ReplySide notes: Oops.
Added photos but not the review. Place should be under Modern European as there's no broad category for Azeri/similar spots but they denied my suggestion. Would recommend the kabobs/shashlik. The kutab/qutab is also quite good.Any who: As is similar at Baku Palace and some other related places, there are two different experiences you can have at this spot and I have had both. The former is with a group who speaks Russian or Azeri (as this place is well Azeri/Azerbaijani) and the latter is with others. The former is more party platters and is quite popular among the people from the Caucuses. For an Azeri classic, look no further than the qutab/kutab. Available either with mixed minced herbs or stuffed with lamb (or less traditional chicken,) these mini pancakes are outstanding. The various kabobs (the Lulya/Lula/Lül in particular is outstanding as is the Sturgeon and Chahalach [aka mini lamb chops]) are excellent. The Chicken Kabob is alright as they are much more of a lamb specialist. The Potatoes With Mushrooms, a classic in many similar countries, is also very good here. The Mother-In-Laws Chicken is a cheesy delight and would make a rich main dish. The Plov here is also quite good. The Turkish Style Liver is pretty good here as well.For salads, the Journey to Baku is their take on the common eggplant salad found in various Turkic areas. It's quite good. Also recommended is the Veal Tongue Salad; their version of Salad "Tashkent." The Achichuk is solid as well as is the Avocado Salad. Of the salads, I wouldn't recommend the Greek Salad with Basturma. Too little of said meat and just generic.The desserts here are fine with a pretty solid Napoleon (Russian version not French) with a copious amount of filo and buttercream.
Be the first to ReplyI saw Emily Fedner on IG naming the Village Cafe's guru
I saw Emily Fedner on IG naming the Village Cafe's guru hingal as the best dish she ate in 2022 so I was very curious to try them out. The restaurant is a little hidden and actually inside the parking lot of a liquor store on a somewhat busy stretch of Coney Island Ave. Parking is free and available inside the lot though there is also street parking available. I came early on a Sunday evening around 4:30 and there were already several tables of guests. Our server was really kind and patient and walked us through some recommendations for us, as it was our first time trying Azeri food. We ordered the Baku Salad ($15) to start which had grilled and chopped eggplant and tomatoes with bell peppers and cilantro. It had a nice smoky flavor but it also tasted like something I could get from NetCost. Nothing too special. We also received some fresh, fluffy Turkish bread ($5) that we were told were complimentary but I noticed they charged us for it at the end. Oops. But I didn't mind because I love Turkish pide and these were warm to the touch. We also noticed nearly every single table had a plate of kutaby so we had two orders of the lamb version ($3 each). They are kind of like flatbread with a crispy edge except these kutabi(s?) were filled with minced lamb so juicy I was surprised the bread wasn't soaked through. They were so fragrant but in a way in which the gaminess wasn't too strong. Seriously blew all other kutaby I had eaten before out of the water. For our entrées, we decided to do as the Romans do and order the lamb lulya (most tables had these and the kutabi), the chicken kebab and mother in law's chicken at our waiter's recommendation, and of course the guru hingal. The lamb lulya kebab ($12.50) came in three precious, delicious patties all wrapped in lavash. The outside was seared and biting into the soft sausage shaped patty unleashed a river of juice. Absolutely phenomenal! The chicken kebab was also excellent and nicely seasoned. I think their grilled dishes are really great and they must be performing some kind of sorcery to create the perfect juicy grilled meats. The mother in law's chicken ($18) was baked but very crispy and smothered in mozzarella cheese and mushrooms and served with a smear of mashed potatoes. I think out of all the dishes we tried, this would probably be the option I would recommend to someone who is not too adventurous or prefers some kind of familiarity as it did give me chicken parm vibes. This is not to say it wasn't good because it was delicious and decadent and very very cheesy. And finally, the dish that drew me here in the first place: the guru hingal. It's essentially a plate of thin, handmade sheets of pappardelle-like pasta with grilled minced lamb and onion, served with a herby, garlicky yogurt sauce. The lamb flavor is amplified because it's cooked with its own fat but the yogurt sauce drizzled atop simultaneously cuts through the heaviness with its sharp garlic notes but accentuates the richness with the cream. It's the most lovely dichotomous dish and I can see why it's one of their popular menu offerings. I would suggest to eat this quickly as the pasta can congeal once cold.
Be the first to ReplyI am so grateful my cousin took us and the entire family
I am so grateful my cousin took us and the entire family here to eat. I have never had Azerbaijan foods before and I can tell you it was truly amazing! The waiter was very helpful and gave us excellent food recommendations. They were all delicious! I felt the love when I was eating the foods. I highly recommend this place. It is truly a hidden gem.We ordered to share: 1) Journey to Baku (Eggplant salad), 2) Creamy Mushroom Soup, 3) Borscht Soup, 4) Lamb Kutaby, 5) Chicken + Lamb Lulya Kebab w/ Pilaf, 6) Shaker Bura cookie.Journey to Baku (eggplant salad appetizer) - this was very delicious! The eggplants were super tender + marinated so well. It tasted like glazed balsamic eggplant.Creamy mushroom soup - WOW! I highly recommend this. One of the best creamy mushroom soup I had in awhile in NYC. Super flavorful and creamy!Borscht Soup - WOW! I also highly recommend this! This borscht has beef in it, so it is not vegetarian friendly. Super flavorful (esp after putting a few spoons of sour cream in it). Loved it very much! Lamb Kutaby - It was delicious but a bit oily. It was some sort of flatbread w/ lamb filling. If you close your eyes, it tasted like a lamb manti (dumpling). Chicken + Lamb Lulya Kebab w/ Pilaf - The chicken kebab was so tender + juicy + well seasoned. The lamb kebab was also delicious and well seasoned (not too gamey). The pilaf w/ onions was good (to mellow out the flavors of the chicken + lamb). There was some dipping sauce + I was not a big fan of it.Shaker Bura cookie - This cookie was interesting. It tasted like a butter cookie. It was nice to try, but I would not reorder this again.P.S - that bread was holy! It was so damn soft and delicious (by itself & w/ butter). The bread paired so well w/ the soups + the eggplant salad.Friendly and helpful staff + very comfortable seating. Love the decor - feels homely.I will be returning soon again!

Really great food & atmosphere hidden off the main road of Coney Island! I would have never seen or found this place it it wasn't for my friends! The food is well worth coming again and again! The service is very friendly and inviting. The crowds make it a party! Stay as late as you like & keep ordering their dishes! You never leave not enjoying one of your best nights!!

Had dinner here with a couple of friends and it was soo good. Great service, atmosphere and their food was outstanding!Honestly i forgot and probably don't even know what we ordered since we just pointed at pictures on Yelp/google. Chicken was crispy and juicy, the beef kebabs were big and juicy, perfectly grilled. The lamb sausage (I think?) with the wrap, so juicy and tender, fat just dripping down.At first we wanted to order an extra entree but our server was honest and said it will be too much for the table (he was right!). We saw a lot of ppl ordering tea at the end of their dinner and we followed along. The tea with sugar cubes was a hit and a great ending to our stuffed belly. Overall - prices are very good and food was excellent!

DA DA DA!! (YES, YES, YES!!)Walk in to mini Ukraine ! From decorations, to food choices, you were just saved a trip to Ukraine ! You MUST try fried ravioli! A masterpiece some would call it ! Our recommendations that stay true and true are : avocado salad, eel and Kani salad, fried ravioli, and the lamb ribs ! Trust me, do it! GOOOO! Ps: the only reason I deducted one star is because it's very crowded and loud.

I came here once on a Saturday evening and was turned away because the place was PACKED (good sign, right?) Luckily, I tried again on an early Sunday afternoon and I was the first one there. Had the borscht, warm bread, and lamb and chicken kebabs. Everything was so so good... the meats were some of the most juicy I've ever had. Since this place is next door to my gym, I will be a repeat customer.
