| - If you come here for "happy hour" it is not so happy. We had read a review of their happy hour in the Plain Dealer, which lauded their $5 wraps (including fries) and $2.50 beers. We love Turkish food AND a bargain, so we were stoked. Imagine our surprise when the waitress stated there was no "Happy Hour". Then a waiter returned and stated "We do have those specials, but not for people like you!" Huh?!? A moderately attractive, professional couple on our way home from work? A mixed ethnicity couple (Irish and Middle Eastern?) Not a group of alcohol-swilling yuppies? We questioned this and asked if we needed to be seated at the bar for the happy hour, and he stated, "No, it' is okay, we do this one time for you". So we ordered 3 wraps and 2 drinks, one of which was a 2.50 beer. The waiter brought the beer, which he opened tableside, and then he exclaimed "this is import, it is $4.50". When we protested (all of their beer is imported!) because it says so RIGHT ON THE MENU, then the owner came and said "they don't know what they are talking about, it will be 2.50". Then, throughout the meal, we could hear them arguing LOUDLY in the back about Happy Hour! When they brought our food (with a surly attitude) we mentioned that the newspaper said fries come with it, and they said they would bring them and they never did. The food was cold and quite frankly, was not that great. (No comparison to Istanbul Grille in Tremont or Dervish in Avon Lake). I mean come on, for a few bucks more you can get a feast at either of those places. We were not trying to be cheap, but they did not live up to what was printed in the paper or even right on their menu. Next time, try Nate's Middle Eastern food a few doors down for a much better meal and no side order of bad attitude! We will never go back there again.
