It's been some time since I first set foot into Istanbul Grille, and at this point, I feel like family in there.
Josh (the owner) works his butt off and he's got his family backing him up. However they do it is a mystery to me. What I see as a jumbled mess of styrofoam containers and tongs, they see as a daily bob and weave of culinary delights.
But here's the issue. The meat has gone dry. For real. It saddens my soul.
Word on the street is that there is more support going into the Lawrenceville location (or perhaps another location is opening) or the source of meat has changed. I'm not exactly sure of the details, but the chicken I know and love is simply not the same.
I guess I might be moving to the veggie plate... still delicious, but the loss of the chicken in the past week is simply heartbreaking. Heartbreaking.
