“I love this little place! We travel about 30 minutes to eat here about three times a year and it's always been spectacular. He usually we end up with the gyro platter cuz that's just what we know and like. But this time we tried the meat platter for two for some variety and it was outstanding! Couldn't believe how much meat there was probably could have fed three or even four people! We brought enough leftovers home for another two dinners! Everything was outstanding and it was really a great variety of all the different meats they have. Would highly recommend this place however make sure you make reservations. They are very small inside and are typically always busy unless you come way before the peak dinner hours.“

Dish blew me away, I will definitely be back to try more!Dietary restrictions: Can eat as healthy or unhealthy as you want at this place!“

I'd go back eventually to see how it turns out with the steaks (had seafood). But for what they're charging right now I would expect close to perfection, it wasn't near that. Still, overall good.“

We went for my mother’s birthday and they treated us incredibly well. Service is fantastic and the waiters were quite attentive.

“Stopped here for a falafel salad takeout. This is a beautiful, family run restaurant that is extremely clean and well-maintained.. they have a cold case in the front for some delectable desserts like baklava and others. They also have a wide variety of authentic Turkish food items. The only reason for four stars today is because the falafels were rather disappointing. They were extremely hard and dry. It seemed as though they had either been fried too long or fried twice. And they were lacking flavor. I will definitely give this restaurant another try as everyone always has a one-off day.“

“I have been going to Grill Point about once a month for the past 2+ years, and I don't remember being disappointed a single time. I always get a lunch special, which is reasonably priced for the quantity and (especially) quality of food you get. The owners are really kind and involved in daily operations. The lunch appetizers are amazing, with options including homemade hummus, labne, and the best lentil soup I have ever had. The kebabs are tender and juicy, spiced to perfection. And the thin, Lebanese-style pita bread, which always comes fresh and warm, is to die for, hitting a sweet spot between soft and crispy. I have also tried their baklava before, and I have to give that a thumbs-up, as well!Overall, Grill Point is a hidden gem, truly a treasure of Route 9. Turn in at the U-Haul, and prepare to enjoy a truly wonderful Mediterranean meal.“

“Perhaps i ordered the wrong main entree. The appetizers were good we got wings and the pretzels 6/10. i got chicken and waffle for my main and i have to say it was the blandest chicken ive ever had. No flavor in the chicken or the coat. Bland waffle. Most of the seasonings were on the egg and they didnt even ask me how i want that cooked because i definitely wouldve said sunnyside up…. They gave me over hard 1/10. Being unhappy with my choice i tried some of my friends’ pizzas and they were decent if you like soft crust (no crunch)7/10 in my opinion. Pistachio ricotta cake was dessert and it was good 9/10.“
