Istanbul has good food and it's a cute place. However, there are a lot of things I did not like about this place. For starters, It was a hot July day and they did not have Air Conditioning on. My wife's allergies flared up and as a result, she couldn't enjoy herself. The wait-staff were overly attentive. We were being interrupted every couple of minutes. However, they didn't refill our water till the end of our meal. The management was very rude. I had asked them a question about my meal and it seemed that he wanted to rip my head off for asking the question. I was almost knocked down by one of the managers who forcibly tried to grab the check. We weren't thanked or invited back. The only exception was the Hostess. We also noticed that the waiters/management seemed to favor certain people in the restaurant. Overall, a very disappointing experience and a waste of a $100.00 bill.
