Samdan - Cresskill

Excellent Mediterranean cuisine is the food very tasty the in-house bread and the olive oil tasty. Must try the Chicken Chops in the Grill Cabobs. Don't forget to have him in the shepherd salad.

We had a nice dinner with perfect service, and great food that you do not stop eating. I'll recommend it to my friends.

I would like to congratulate the new owner Yusuf, he is extremely with all the new upgrades he introduced, including the latest menu with tasteful seafood. Everything's so delicious. One of my favorites is “Octopus Carpaccio”. I was in many upscale restaurants, and I can really say Octtopus carpaccio has the Michelin star quality taste with its unique sauce. New chefs earn the credit. I had ordered Filet Mignon from Sofia Englewood almost weekly, then recently stopped thanks to new menu item “Saslik” from Samdan. Main ingredient is specially marinated fillet mignon, and it is served with potato puree on the bottom and cooks secret sauce on top, this combination is mouthwater. Since the meeting with saslik we have ordered weekly from Samdan for our family dinners. See the photo it shows, take order of saslik how beautiful it couples with my favorite Cabernet red wine, cheers my friends ....

I made the order at a lunch hour to try this place. Compared to other Mediterranean/Turkish places I regularly visited, Samdan was okay. I order was well prepared and packed and delivered within an hour. I ordered the eggplant tomatoes and calf liver appetizers, ground chicken cabob. The size and taste were decent. I was little disappointed by the liver as it was not cooked as I expected. The chicken cabob also lacked something in taste.

Yes, the food is incredibly delicious but friendly staff and elite atmosphere is very hard to find and Samdan has it all…. I tried all the appetizers, most of the main dishes and all were delicious. You can order anything you want on the menu without hesitating because it all will come out delicious. It is a restaurant for a date night, family/friends night out. Oh! And I also seen them hosting big parties. You must try this place. Go, go, gooooo now : and thank me later.
