    It was my first time here and I was very impressed by the ambiance and the extensive menu. The service was excellent as well. The Istanbul Premium Salad was delicious and everyone in our party of 4 enjoyed their lamb dishes.

    This was my first time here and it was a great experience. The food was excellent. I had the chicken sautee. The service was also excellent. The only thing the restaurant can improve upon is the noise level. It was difficult to talk because it was very loud. But overall, I highly recommend this place. It is also a BYOB.
