"My date and I went to the movies and decided to explore a bit afterward. We stumbled upon Istanbul Grill and figured we’d give it a try. I had never had Portuguese food before, so I was quite curious. We chose to sit outside, where the tables were nicely spaced apart. What a delightful surprise this place turned out to be! The service was absolutely fantastic! Our waitress was attentive without being intrusive, allowing us to enjoy our delicious meal. I ordered the chicken kebab, which came with red cabbage, peeled carrots, salad, marinated sweet potato, and some delicious rice. As for the dipping sauce? It was simply beyond description! We both ended up so full that we took some food home. I'm already looking forward to stopping by again for dessert and coffee. I would definitely recommend this spot. Well done!"

"Originally opened as a butcher and grocery store by the patriarch, the deli was transformed into a sub shop by the next generation following his passing. Kit ordered mini perogies, mini potato pancakes, and a hotdog with mustard. Meanwhile, I opted for the #3: Vino's Italian with ham, hard salami, and American cheese. I had initially planned to swap the American for Swiss cheese, but the current matriarch offered us a sample of Cooper cheese that we both enjoyed, so I decided to go with that instead. My sandwich came with my usual toppings: lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers, vinegar, mayonnaise, along with salt, pepper, and oregano. We brought our meals back to the hotel room and began our dinner. We were very pleased with the quality, portion size, flavor, and preparation of everything we had. One notable detail was how my sandwich was constructed. The contents and toppings were cleverly separated due to the way the roll was sliced, with a portion taken from the crown that created a club-style presentation. This thoughtful approach kept everything neatly contained, preventing any overflow from each half. Overall, everything was fresh and delicious, reinforcing my commitment to supporting small, family-operated businesses that take pride in what they offer. I will definitely continue to spend my money at places like this!"

"I’m giving this restaurant two stars because while the sushi was quite good, the overall experience left much to be desired. Although the sushi was tasty, the service was lacking. We were the only customers when we arrived, but 30 minutes later, four other patrons came in and received their meals before us. When we asked about our order, we received a mix of excuses, from our order being lost to it not even being placed. The manager did apologize, but no one provided a clear explanation for the error. Even though the sushi was delicious, the chaotic service makes me reluctant to come back in the future."

"Linguini with clam sauce was good. It's funny how much you can tell about a place from this one dish: do they use canned chopped clams or fresh? If the clams are in the shell, is the sauce gritty? Did they drain the pasta enough when they scooped it out of the steam table? Is the sauce watery? Are they afraid of garlic? I liked the answers to all of these questions here. We got Irish coffees for dessert, and those were pretty to look at but not as good to drink. The whole deal with Irish coffee is that you sip the hot coffee through soft (and very cold) whipped cream. Here, the cream on top was whipped so stiff that it was hard to drink. You had to stir it in before you could really drink the coffee. The coffee was too strong, too--more like espresso than coffee, you'll get more of a buzz from that than the whiskey. It's a small place, and the tables are close together. It's also very busy. Service is good."
