Overall, bad service. Wait time to receive the menu took about 15-20 mins. Before that, we didn't…read moresee anyone even acknowledge that we were there or walk by us. We ordered chicken kabob and chicken shawarma plates, were told it would take 30 mins. for food to cook. We said we were okay with that, but 40 mins. later and we still had no food while many others that arrived after us were served their plates. The tea we ordered never came either. We would not dine here again due to their slow service.

First time eating here and apparently first time reviewed on Yelp. Menus are in Turkish and English…read morewhich is very helpful. Servers are prompt and friendly. They have a huge menu of items so there is something for every taste.(See menu photos). Just stopped for drinks and something sweet on a hot afternoon. Orderedf the fruity waffle. If you like chocolate you are luck. Loaded with milk chocolate (like Nutella). The Frozen drinks are delicious. Many flavors to choose. Suggest trying the Dut frozen drink for something local, different and delicious. Ask for no ice cubes (büz yok) to get the most drink. The milkshakes were less impressive. They are not thick like Canada so be prepared for something more milky. Overall good experience. Will come back to try more!

However, finding a free table at Bi Kahvalti is not bad! Their menu card includes the most typical Turkish breakfast dishes, but the menu is small and simple. It's especially a good option if you are not too hungry, but just want to enjoy a few of the Turkish specialities. I went their with a friend of mine, and we decided to share one breakfast plate and menemen. Which was perfect for us. We got salat (cucumber and tomatoes), olives, three different kind of cheese and kaymak with honey. On the side we ordered a menemen with soğuk. The service is good and they have no problems of helping you when you need a translation of the menu card :-) All in all a really good start on the day, and I would be happy to go there again!

Furthermore the coffee was solid and the service was nice and spoke English very well. They played some jazz music which I really liked but for some people it could be a little bit stressful if you have to concentrate because the style was pretty advanced. There are more comfortable corners and a big wooden table. I will go there again.
