    PiddeG Mediterranean Eatery

    PiddeG is a fairly new Turkish/Mediterranean restaurant. After they opened I heard great things so I was happy to try it. The atmosphere is clean, quiet and bright. As you walk in you pass tempting Turkish delights which are beautiful as well as unusual and tasty. I’ve been back a few times and each time the food seems to get better. I must confess that Mediterranean food is one of my favorites, so I may be a little biased, although, this was my first experience with Turkish style dishes.

    Comments:  The food does not disappoint. The Sampler Mezza plate is a must have.      

    It’s why I like to come here with a few people. Each item on the plate is packed with flavor and the combinations are great together. The flat-bread that accompanies it is a perfect compliment. The Lahmacun and Piddies are like Mediterranean pizza and flat bread and perfect for sharing. The beet salad was a flavorful add on. The entree Pidde salad had a generous portion of meat and was very satisfying and flavorful. I am not usually a fan of Baklava but was happy to find it tender and not overly sweet. The

    Kunefa was a surprise and like eating a sweet cheese pudding, not at all like a cheese cake. I’m sorry but this is not a good place for a diet. Each person I’ve brought here has returned on their own.
