First time trying what felt like authentic turkish food to me. The food was good, meat was flavourful, & portion size was good for the price. The ambience & atmosphere of the restaurant was very nice. However, the server was a bit rude & passive aggressive to us. We asked to switch bulgur with rice, but apparently our instructions were not clear to her. When we pointed this out to her, she did not accept her mistake, but portrayed us to be at fault. She told us that she will bring us extra rice to make up for it, but again came back with extra bulgur😭😭? Like girl why? & she showed us a weird attitude on this. I do understand that working in hospitality is tough, but even if you are mad at me, at least do it discreetly lol. Told the owner but he was very nice & apologized for the mistake. Server ruined what could have been a good experience.
