Black Sea is located in Minnesota. Locals say the restaurant serves genuine Turkish dishes.
4.0 of 5 stars.
The cranky (Grumpy? Surly? Salty.) shop-keeps make me grin. Huge portions for the price on entrees. Loses a star for being cramped, but that's a hazard of any hole-in-the-wall, especially good ones....

It saddens my soul that I did not discover Black Sea until after moving 2000 miles away from it. The husband and wife owners are incredibly endearing. The food is delicious and cheap. The walls are...

The Black Sea restaurant serves authentic Turkish food. The location is quite cozy and cramped. It would not be suitable for large groups, rather small parties of 2-3 people would be more comfortable....

Black Sea was the first Turkish restaurant in the Twin Cities and sits across Snelling from Hamline University, next to the Ginko Coffee Shop. I like the gyro meat and rice with pita bread, the hummus...

My girlfriend just took me here, and I was blown away. Don't let anyone confuse you, it is just a hole in the wall. However, the food is top-notch, and I was blown away by their Turkish lemonade. The...

Probably my favorite small restaurant in the cities. Ali and his wife make this a truly great dining experience whether take out or dine in. Parties of no more than 10 for dining in because it's a small place!...

The food was good, not amazing, but more than worth the very low prices, the antique copper pots hanging on the wall, and the really hospitable and cute family that runs it. Try the cacik (soup)!
