| - This place is basically 18-20 year old me's most romantic date spot/dream come true. The soundtrack was straight off my iTunes playlist when I brought along my love of Andrea Bocelli, Celine Dion, and musicals to college and learned about a whole bunch of awesome international music. It's a converted home with gorgeous "bohemian" (i.e. Turkish because this is actually a Turkish place) lighting, picturesque paintings and colored walls. Eating here is like living in a quirky, "ethnic" restaurant from a British RomCom :)
Okay, so now that you want to go there to experience this basic b!tch's college dream life, it's time to talk about the food! I took one bite of the Izgara Kofte and practically did a physical double take. HOW THE HELL WAS THIS SO GOOD??? Seriously, I enacted the wide eyed emoji and looked over to my husband like... you HAVE to try this! He was already basically mirroring me with his Chicken Kofte. The Turkish Tea was such a delightful addition to the meal and the only complaint was from my husband that the baklava was TOO fresh because he likes his when it gets a little more stale/hard. So basically, if you were already going here from my fantabulous intro paragraph, I KNOW you want to go here now :)
I don't like giving out five stars, but heck, I'm not a Michelin critic - I can freaking love a place for is adorableness as WELL as its food :)))
