| - Ordering from this restaurant was an absolute nightmare. I made a yelp account to specifically complain about the service I received from this place. After ordering from The Ottoman, I didn't get my food, so I cannot comment on its taste. The food may be terrible, but I'm sure it could not be as bad as the staff that is employed there. Instead of following the instructions listed on how to reach the apartment I was in, their delivery driver opted of the super rational route of honking rudely to gain my attention (at 10pm or so). When I came down to see what was up, the driver began to tell me how he had knocked ten times on my door (which isn't true, my girlfriend and I were waiting by the door of the apartment and heard nothing). After telling him I didn't hear anything, he began to call me a "fucking liar". Now, I'm not saying that he didn't knock on a door ten times, but he certainly didn't knock on mine ten times. I mean, what sort of person who ORDERS the food and WANTS the food ignores it when its at the door. After being insulted, I still offered to pay for the food but was called a fucking liar once more and drove off with the food. We then called the restaurant, to ask to speak to the manager. We asked about getting our food and we told that they would call the driver and get back to us. Of course, they never did. Once my girlfriend and I had regrouped from this terrible experience, we decided to order from another place called "Greek in the Village", also located on Bloor Street. After putting in our order online, we were called back and informed that they could not fulfill our order of friend eggplant slices, but could give us stuffed grape leaves instead. We then waited. And waited. And waited. An hour and a half later my girlfriend called the restaurant. She was met on the phone by the rudest staff member imaginable. He first asked her what she wanted to order. She told him that she didn't have an order, but a complaint. He then told her that she never placed an order here before. Next, she was told that she placed an order twice. He then screamed at her to shut up and hung up the phone. After doing a bit of digging online, my girlfriend and I have found out that these two restaurants are the same restaurants but listed under two different names (we assume to gain more business online). The entire ordeal took a total for three hours.
