"I came to Istanbul Grill on a whim looking for grilled fish and this place did not disappoint! The place was clean, the wait staff were polite and attentive and they gave me personalized service. I ended up having a 3- course meal starting with the falafel, hummus and pita bread. The bread was hot and tasted fresh as if it was made from scratch. Loved it so much. I then had the Levrek (whole Mediterranean Sea bass). When I say I was licking the plate?! ? It was perfectly seasoned.. grilled to perfection.. and so so flavorful! I enjoyed this dish so much- 10/10! I then went on to dessert and had the Turkish tea and baklava. The baklava was fresh and tasty- some of the best I’ve had. I would 1000% recommend this place. You’ll definitely get what you pay for here and keep coming back for more!"

"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."

"However, the service was abysmal. There was a young man working the front who had such a poor attitude that it felt like he was ready to burn the place down. When taking our order, he refused to bring bread, even though he was serving it to other tables. He asked for our meal choices before offering drinks, and his demeanor was insulting and odd. When we inquired about whether the branzino contained bones, he changed his answer three times, eventually admitting he didn’t know what branzino was, and suggested salmon with a smirk. Little did he know, we’re a family of chefs and we encourage this restaurant to hire someone more knowledgeable instead of him. His behavior was truly bizarre. We wondered if it had anything to do with our being Arab. Fortunately, another woman and a man came to assist us, and they were wonderful. Perhaps the original server was uncomfortable serving people with medium to dark skin? The new waitstaff also took a while to bring the bread, only delivering it after our third request, while another table enjoyed theirs. Eventually, we received cold rustic bread with cold butter, unlike the oil dip offered to the white couple at the next table. In the end, we left our usual tip of 25%, but we hope this establishment will provide some training to their staff soon. Overall, it's a charming restaurant with good ambiance and food, but the service could easily bring it down by two stars."
