Elite Turkish Restaurant & Café was reported closed or not Halal 15 years ago Despite its exclusive-sounding name, Elite Turkish Restaurant, on the edge of Brooklyn's Chinatown, welcomes a diverse mix of customers - you might hear English, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, Pakistani, and Turkish spoken in the airy dining room. Owner Hasan Ustun leased the space from the mosque next door (so alcoholic beverages are prohibited in keeping with Muslim laws), and he decorated the storefront with beautiful tiles from his native Turkey before opening in mid-February. And the talent in the kitchen has been drawing diners ever since.
