The food is certainly very good ! The bread is amazing however the Service is very bad ! I was charged extra ! When challenged the guy pretended that he charged me for any drink ( juice included while I only asked for a can ). No excuses from the cashier ! & condescending attitude! It's sad because my first visit I had a different & better experience!

The food was really good. But the service is so bad. They never serve you your plate. We had to go up & down multiple times to get our dishes. I think with such food quality, the service could be improved.

J'ai récemment dîné chez Chef Istanbul & j'ai été très impressionné. Les plats étaient absolument délicieux, avec des saveurs authentiques & bien équilibrées. L'équipe était également très serviable & attentionnée, ce qui a rendu l'expérience encore plus agréable. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant & j'y retournerai certainement !

The food & service were amazing! We were offered a cup of Turkish tea that washed down the food, wonderful experience!
