    Excellent food and drink. Our waiter wanted us to have a good experience, but, the bar must have been atrociously backed up, drinks came out completely different times, half the table got their first wine after the food came out. Note, We would have had a second round, but it would've taken too long.

    It is better to reserve table in advance since there are always many people. Service is great, when you arrived they provide you water and Turkish bread with small plate of olives. Food is amazing, no comments, you must try it

    We were so sad to find out they had ran out of lamb chops, lamb shanks, and were no longer serving arak! The tables were extremely close together, really trying to pack everyone in. We came to celebrate a special event and would not recommend it as the seating was tight and our top two choices (both lamb) were “sold out” well before the night was over. The service was great and the baba ghanoush was phenomenal. Unfortunately, we only stayed for the appetizer due to the sold out issue…

    I really like this place;however this night was packed and seemed a little crazy! They ran out of white wine, and I overheard the servers complain about no clean glasses available. Having said this is I would probably choose lunch time over a weekend dinner next time. Food is very good and overall ambiance is nice.

    Istanbul Grill was a pleasant relaxing experience with excellent food and first class staff who were friendly and informative without being intrusive. We have been to Turkey many times and love their food but this is the first restaurant abroad where the standard was as good as we had come to expect. We had a selection of three cold starters which were very tasty and satisfying and great value at $18. I had the beef steak kebab which was beautifully cooked and tasteful beyond belief and my wife had lamb cubes on an avocado puree which was again firrst class. We only wished we had a Turkish restaurant of this quality back home.

    We had an excellent meal. Everything was just perfectly cooked. We had the Lamb shanks, they were so tender, could cut them with a fork. We enjoyed the Trio cold appetizer of the Hummus, Esme and Babaganoush and the bread so fresh and tender. The Hunkar Begendi was perfectly layered and cooked to perfection. For dessert we had the Knafe also very good. A chewy savory melted cheese wrapped in crispy shredded philo covered with a not too sweet sauce and topped with vanilla ice cream. We are originally from CA and have access to different cuisine, my sister now lives in AR and doesn't have the same choices....but she is only 4 hours away! She will be bringing herself and husband back! Absolutely recommend!

    This was our first time dining at Istanbul. We arrived at 5 o'clock for our reservation and were promptly seated. At that point the restaurant was quiet. We enjoyed an un-rushed, dinner including the hot appetizer plate, delicious entrees, baklava, and Turkish coffee. By the time we left, the restaurant was packed and more noisy, but it was still easy to hold a conversation. We were very impressed with the food, the service, and the ambiance. We'll be back!

    Food here is consistently delicious! We dined on a busy Saturday at 6:30 pm and the place was packed, so quite noisy! Service was not the usual attentive service I have come to expect, making us think they were short-handed that evening? No one really checked on us during the meal to refill our drinks, and our requests for more pita bread, salt and pepper, etc. were forgotten. Overall, tonight we felt overlooked. This is not typical of this place, and the food is definitely worth giving them a try!
