| - So very disappointed in my 3rd visit to this restaurant. I would not have gone back if the service and food were sub-par previously and by no means have recommended it to friends but, alas that is what happened on this visit. I raved about the food so 4 of us planned dinner on a Saturday night. We were the first in after they opened at 5:00. No other customers for about an hour so you would think we would get great service and attention. Again, disappointment.
I had a McD's coffee cup with me and right away the staff wanted to dispose of it. I still had coffee in it and wanted to finish it. He brought over a coffee cup for me to use instead of the McD's cup. Now, if I was in another coffee shop I would understand his concern but this started my experience on a negative note.
We ordered our food and they started to bring out our meze to enjoy. I will give them kudos where it belongs. That's why they got 2 stars instead of 1. The food did come out quickly.
But, unfortunately the food was very bland! No spiciness although noted on the menu as spicy. Just basic, boring and again, disappointing. Don't get me wrong, we ate most of the food but for a place which is known for unique flavors and actually notes them on the menu it was very bland.
Lastly, I want to touch upon the service. Again, disappointing. Asking for water refills is not that big of a deal but couple that together with the attitude of the afformentioned coffee cup, the comments about needing the menu back because they were "busy" (only 3 of the tables had diners). Busy? Really? And just the feeling we never had their full or even somewhat attention.
It will be a very long time before I return or recommend to friends, family or even acquaintances.
