Istanbul Bay

Amazing and delicious food. Ambiance is beautiful, it's like u r sitting in the heart of turkey. Staff are a bunch of delight, especially Emrie, who hosted us throughout our dinner.<br>Definitely a place to revisit

I ordered and recommend the avocado salad with chicken, the portions were very generous for the price and had a lot of flavor. I had turkish tea along with it which was strong and delicious. The food also arrived quickly, my servers Suzanne and Abror were very attentive and welcoming my entire stay - I had little issue communicating with them as a deaf patron. They offer indoor as well as outdoor seating and the environment was clean and relaxing. I enjoyed coming here for my lunch break and will be back for more soon.

Delicious food, wonderful stuff, relaxing atmosphere. It was a pleasure to stop by

I ate here one time and it will not be the last. The food is very good. Platter sizes and prices are good. I order a chicken gyro wrap and a side of rice. The side of rice is enough for two and is very good. I highly recommend this place.

I just take a quick bite in a cafe section. It was great experience! Friendly service, great coffee. I am a big fan of Turkish coffee.

I came in and had cappuccino with a turkish pastry called borek. It was fantastic i had one fetta filled only and also spinach with cheese. So good..

Asude was our server and he provided top notch hospitality! The food is freshly made, large portion and the atmosphere is perfect for date night. Fast service and the Turkish tea is refreshing. Highly reccomend!

Very disappointed. This place used to be good.<br>I ordered a lamb Shish kebab and well what I got was like 2 pounds of rice an 4 small pieces of meat, no salad, no sauces. But of course the charge the Same. It’s the first time this happens to me in this place.<br><br>Was a pick up order by the way.

Stopped by last night. Debated for about 10 minutes then caved and decided to give them try. I went with the lamb kebab meal which comes with that meat choice atop a bed of white rice and a house salad with two side sauces, a white yogurt-based sauce and a red moderately hot sauce. First off everything on that plate was done very well. The rice was cooked well; the salad may have been the freshest salad I've ever had. There was also a serving of bread in the form of a roll which was toasted and delicious. The lamb kebab cubes were tasty, just the right level of tenderness, and very well seasoned. My issue is this. Those delicious little cubes of lamb measured about 1 inch by 3/4 of an inch, at best. There were five cubes on the plate, six at most. I was fighting to just focus on the rice the salad and the bread so I'd still have some actual meat left to eat towards the end of the meal. I paid just under $20 for that meal. For that reason I can't see myself ever returning to this restaurant.

It pains me to give this place a negative review because ive eaten here for over a decade, but the last 3x i came here is just unbearable. The portions are just terrible now, they give you a bed of rice with barely any meat when you're paying a premium. The bad health rating this place has also concerns me, i wont be back from now on. $30 for this with tip for takeout.

The pide arrived fresh, perfectly baked in the oven, and was exceptionally delicious. The delivery service was prompt and efficient, which further enhanced the overall dining experience. Highly recommend for both quality and reliability.

~ Delicious and welcoming~<br>Lamb chops and chicken chops are so tender and well seasoned- served with rice and green. Food is really great here. No wonder it's always crowded. Servers are friendly and effective.<br>Mind you, 19% gratuity is auto added to the bill.

I've been visiting Istanbul Bay for many years and I’ve never been let down by the amazing service, delicious food, or charming atmosphere. This time, I brought a friend along to share in the experience and try some of their fantastic dishes and appetizers. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles from the staff, which made us feel right at home. We were really looking forward to tasting their famous rice pudding and melt-in-your-mouth dessert, both of which are top sellers. Unfortunately, we didn’t have enough space to fit those in this time, but we’ll definitely be back for more!

After a disappointing experience at another<br>chain Turkish restaurant on the island, I didn’t have high expectations. But I was blown away—the meats were incredibly flavorful without being too salty. The rice was fantastic, the sampler was delicious, and the service was excellent. We’ll definitely be back!

Waited so long for the food (at least 30minutes) . Food came out warm not hot. Prob been sitting in the kitchen for a while. It was really salty too, couldn’t even finish one dish. The gratuity was automatically added to our bill for a table of 2. We were not informed of the automatic gratuity in any form. I don’t know if it’s like that for everyone or if it’s racism because we were the only Asian at the restaurant.
