One of the most amazing finds! This tiny little place seriously over delivers! We ordered the Ottoman pleasure, which was billed as a serving for 2. When the food came it was beyond what Adrianna, our server told us about. It was enough food for both my husband and I and we still had leftovers!

The food is fresh, and vibrant, the meat was very well seasoned. The fresh made “salad” was so crisp it crunched with every bite! The flavors and textures exploded in your mouth and everything came together like a well orchestrated dance in your mouth.

Charming little quiet inside dining area, with a calming relaxing outside bar seating area. The staff was friendly, inviting, insightful with the menu and was there at a split second when called! Definitely one of the best finds in a very long time!

I am on a short trip here from Houston Texas, we came here to Cafe 34 Istanbul and before I even mention how delicious the food and hookah is, I just want to say we had the absolute most amazing angel as our waitress her name is Elisa, absolutely adore her. She’s so attentive, and caring. And just the sweetest ever. We have come here everyday on her shift just to see her again! She’s AMAZING!? ️ All in all its a 5 star for me!

Came to try the food and hookah and was greeted and taken care of by the absolute best waitress we could have asked for! Definitely made us want to come back again. Her name is Elisa, such a bright and friendly personality! And so easy to get along with. She took care of us! And she made the BEST hookah I’ve had in a long time! The food was great as well. But the main reason I’d come back is because of elisas welcoming personality!

Horrible place to go! Burnt food, bad atmosphere, always the same old musics! Employees are very uninterested and the manager is overly rude.

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE ELISA! This place has AMAZING hookah & food but her service is what brings me back! I’m from Houston Tx so I have only been here 3 times but just in those 3 visits she remembers my exact order she truly is the best! 100/10 recommend?

Too loud, even for young people (had to yell over the music to barely hear each other). Disrespectful bald dude with beard at door wearing Chicago Bulls shirt who gave us a hard time for no reason. Deceitful sales with an added Service Charge we weren't told about. Overpriced drinks and food. Shady operations.may need to be investigated. If you want a chill spot to smoke, look elsewhere (hookah did smoke good tho).

Very pricey. Great atmosphere but I got charged 2x the amount for one hookah after I asked to get the coals refilled.

The hookah was great. Don't go thinking you're going to get Americanized food because it's very authentic. I noticed that the hookah we bought was not attended too though.

Had a great time with the family. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Kunafa is a must try desert so try and save space. Dinner was the highlight of our visit to icon Orlando!

As usual, my favorite place to dine when in Orlando. They do meat really well. One of the best Mediterranean food I would ever have in the US. The Ottoman platter is usually my choice. It's good for 4-5 people. Only disappointment, they don't do a Dill rice.

Parking is hard to come by. Valet seems to be only for the nightclub next door: King.

We ordered the Byti kabob plate and the gyro kabob plate. Very bad salty food, the service was horrible, and the price was ridicules. So if you are looking for a bad experience, go there.

Food was delicious, it was my boyfriend's first time trying Turkish food. The employees made us feel very at home and we're extremely helpful making our experience great.

Worst management. Bad with customers, bad with their workers. Their food tastes like a mixture of cardboard and plastic. Their hookah is a mixture of flavors made in the worst way possible.

Great atmosphere. Everything was outstanding. Great mojitos, food, desserts, and hookahs. Will be going again when I visit Orlando. I have no complaints, five stars for sure.

First time here. Waiter was rude and inattentive. Waited 45 minutes just to place an order and 20 minutes to receive it. Waiter wandered around with our order because she had forgotten our table completely. We decided to leave and waited 30 minutes for the check. Asked the waiter 2 times for the check, and then a different waiter a third time. We finally had to request a manager to get it. No apology was offered from the waiter. She simply returned with the ticket and plopped it on the table. I and my 3 guests felt discriminated against. We were the minorities in the establishment. Everyone seated around us had priority in their requests. We were celebrating a birthday so the experience was even more disappointing. Will not be back!

Food was good. We did takeout but still service seemed iffy. Had to pay on the phone as I placed my order rather than when picking it up.

5 stars all the way. Waitress was polite and professional, food was on point. Chicken was clean, Beef was well cooked, and drinks were refreshing. Highly recommend coming here, I visited on a Wednesday night and they weren’t really packed so we had everything done fast and the seating relaxing. I would imagine under heavier loads, it would be even better.teşekkür ederim!

The staff was very rude and unprofessional. Food is average and not worth coming back to this place at all.
