                              Loved the food, especially the dips and bread. The chicken kebabs could he been a little more tender and spicy, not as in chili spice, but some traditional seasonings/spices. Thought they were bland but added some dip which improved them. I loved the traditional Turkish decor and the staff were friendly. Hope to return when next in Pittsburgh.

                              So for starters the reservation means nothing they want you to seat yourself. As well there is no parking so you have to park at least 1-2 blocks away because the parking outside is for residents only. Now the place was freezing and they did not have heat they were using a heating fan. Food was amazing but service was definitely poor, they took forever to offer us drinks and after the food came they only came back to give us the check. This place is definitely more of a takeout place but I will never dine in again.

                              The thermostat said 59°F at one point. Had to sit and eat in coats and outdoor wear. Waiter didn’t ask about drinks so sat there drinks-less for Idk how long. They told me they could do a table for 15+ people for a birthday party but instead we were three spread out tables. Really disappointing and not very happy we booked to go there. Food was ok at best

                              Small and intimate. I can see that it might be louder with more customers. Brick and wood. Pictures of Turkey and decor traditional to the country-as would be expected. Waited on by a lovely man, who we thought might be the owner. Very gracious. Started out with several cold appetizers and then went on to hot to try a little of everything. Each one that came out was better than the last!! So GOOD! Then we shared the mixed grill platter. 👍 The meat seasoning was delicious! Everything on the plate was a joy to try-meat and veggies! The stand out was a perfectly grilled and seasoned lamb chop! This gem will be going into my regular restaurant rotation!

                              The restaurant was empty when we arrived. Our appetizer platters proved the highlight of the meal. They arrived quickly and were quite tasty. Then the problems began. Someone was using power tools during dinner and the noise was so loud we couldn’t hear our own conversations. We asked the waiter to have them hold up the noise so we could talk and enjoy our food but the construction continued during dinner. This was rude and ruined the whole experience. No explanation was even offered. I won’t return.
