About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
Tuckerbox has been owned and operated by Jackie and Vural Oktay of White River Junction since November 2013. Jackie, Vural, and Hasan (Vural's brother) Oktay also own and operate Istanbul Kebab House in Essex Junction, VT since May 2012. Vural and Hasan were born and raised in Istanbul Turkey; Jackie was born and raised in Jay, Vermont. This hard working team is excited to bring authentic Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine to the Upper Valley with their full dinner service which has now started. Jackie & Vural have been in love with the Tuckerbox since they moved to White River 3 years ago, when the chance came up to own the restaurant they jumped on it. What they love most about the Tuckerbox is the real community feeling and energy inside and the fact that Tuckerbox is a gatherplace for locals to drink great coffee and espresso, eat great food, be together with one another.

    Could not find my written notes, but recall that spouse was apprehensive because it was Turkish food. Son and myself were excited to try it. Not disappointed at all, and even spouse enjoyed her meal. Food was well prepared, authentic, and server was attentive to our needs. Town is pretty quiet after 7 pm, but historic rail station nearby.

    The food was very good. The service started out slow, taking the waitress between 10-15 minutes to finally come to our table and ask us about drinks or starters but after that initial problem the service was fine. The best kebab meal I think I’ve ever had, and the grape leaves were very good also (starter). Good assortment of wine, beer, and other drinks. I would definitely go back again. We did have a reservation. The owner (I think he was the or at least an owner/manager) was out and about going from table to table thanking people for their patronage. He seemed very nice.

    When in the area for a family event, this is the at least the fourth consecutive year we've eaten at Tuckerbox. It's gotten better every time - and it was very nice to start with. There were seven of us, ranging from age 8 to 73 and we all enjoyed our meals. The waitstaff was good to all of us, but paid special attention to the 8 year old who isn't quite ready for some of the more sophisticated dishes. Highly recommended!
