  • RELAXING ENVIRONMENT WITH TURKISH COFFEE BUT I SHOULD NOT HAVE ORDERED THE RICE! I really do regret writing this review but the near health hazard and mistake I experienced at Istanbul I cannot overlook. I will start at the beginning. I LOVE middle eastern style foods and trying all different kinds/tastes. I also love trying new things (especially food). When I saw this establishment with my roommate, we DEFINITELY wanted to try it out. Arriving at Istanbul is a bit difficult at the time of writing this review because currently there is construction around the area and the street just outside the parking lot. Upon arrival you see a simple entrance with flat, tall glass windows and a few tables outside. When you walk in, you first see a small bar in front of you and tables on your left that carry on all the way to back where the restrooms are. There is approximately 2 dozen tables and we were seated at one of the booths closer to the bar. Very comfortable actually. Looking over the menu I wanted to try a lamb dish with a side of rice and relish. Before the food arrived, we ordered their Turkish coffee and it was a delight and probably the best part of the meal. When the food arrived, I was immediately thrown off by the "shiny" object in my rice right on top. I had NO idea what it was so I took my fork and looked it over. IT WAS A STEEL FLAKE! YES! THERE WAS METAL IN MY RICE! I immediately called over the waiter and asked, "What do you guys clean your pots with?" as I pointed to the metal flake on my plate. He looked at it and almost started laughing saying, "Oh, that's my Brillo Pad." WHAT!?!?! You scrubbed the pot but didn't wash it?!? I couldn't believe that! He then said, "I'll get you some more rice." I was skeptical on the rice so I concentrated on the lamb which was actually well prepared with NO metal flakes from a Brillo Pad. He brought back the rice and because I was hungry I decided to sift through it and give it a try. I did not see anymore Brillo Pad. Overall, I give this place TWO stars because of the Turkish coffee being the only delight and we will NOT be returning. They still had me pay FULL PRICE for my meal because I "finished the lamb". Unacceptable after finding a piece of Brillo pad in my rice! I could have seriously been injured or cut myself. No thanks.
