Great Turkish restaurant in Perth Amboy
We discovered Troy several months ago and it has become our favorite. (http://www.troycuisine.com). The restaurant was started by two young brothers who immigrated from Turkey about seven years ago. They did all of the upgrading and decorating themselves and keep the place meticulously clean. The food is authentic and we have loved every dish we ever had - just too hard to pick a favorite. I tend to go for the lamb dishes and my wife adores the desserts. The atmosphere is warm and quiet with some light Turkish music - great for a romantic dinner or business discussions, we've done both. Prices are low/moderate with most entrees in the mid teens, and it is a BYOB. We find this to be a very comfortable and friendly place that we visit several times a month.

Rajpoot is my favorite Indian, and I've sampled Indian restaurants from Beijing to Moscow to Prague to Tokyo. This is Mr. Sing's fifth and only remaining restaurant, and I've been eating his cooking for 26 years. Quiet, comfortable atmosphere and BYOB. Try the Murgh Kampuri and Shahjihani Biryani off the menu. Buffet is okay but not outstanding.

Bart's has a unique atmosphere - set inside an 1850s church, very pleasant! Food is well above average and the menu diverse. Also has a nice bar, which we visit every Friday for a light dinner with drinks.
Aby's is nice for a storefront Mexican with good food and it's BYOB. Always had enjoyable dinners here.
