The worst service. By steel - Jul 10, 2010 We had booked our tables in advance. When we reached there the waitress kept running away from us and pretending they could not see us. Then they said that they had given our table away to their friends and their friends were more important to them because they came there everyday and spent 1000s of dollars and we were not very important. They actually put a table outside in the parking lot. We left. When we asked for the owner he pretended to be a waiter and kept pushing a young asian waitress as if it was her business. The worst service ever. Please do not go there.‎

down to earth turkish food. Good food. In fact, some dishes were really special including the yogurt/cucumber appetizer and baked feta-stuffed phyllo. It's a BYOB so prices are reasonable. Hostess was great: very attentive, friendly, jovial. the inside seating area is very small: one long table and three small rounds, so I'd recommend making a reservation if you plan on eating inside. In the summer, though, you should consider eating outside since the air conditioning inside is meager. Outside, there is a patio on the west side and one on the sidewalk. The one on the sidewalk has a better breeze but more noise. If neither appeal to you, you can order ahead and pick up their delightful fair and bring it home to your air conditioned home or you can go in the autumn.

i love turkish food. there are a lot of delicious Turkish foods. you should go the restaurant and especially try "uskudar" because it is my favorite. all of the Turkish food wonderful but "iskender" is not successful. you should go the restaurant!

Wonderfully fresh. Everything I've had from Cafe Orchid is great. The meats and veggies are all fresh, and you can tell that each dish is prepared by hand. It may be simple, but their hummus is the best around, and the baklava is a delicious, buttery, flaky treat that I would eat every day if I could!
