The food was simply amazing; each dish was bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. What truly stood out was the exceptional service, especially from our server, Amir. He was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain each unique dish in depth, enhancing our dining experience. I highly recommend Café Istanbul for a memorable culinary journey.“

I had so much fun talking with my servers, eating delicious food with unique flavors, and relaxing with friends in comfortable seating. The staff went above and beyond in their service and care. Cira provided me with the best dining experience I’ve had. I HIGHLY recommend Cira.“

“I visited Cedars with my husband today and we cannot properly convey how much we loved it! The staff was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and the one detail that struck me the most was their treatment of everyone-open and caring. The food was epic; perfectly balanced seasoning, bright flavors, richness without heaviness, lovely fusion dishes and the absolute BEST crispy falafel I have had in my life. I felt so comfortable and at ease while I was there, which is a feeling I don’t usually have in restaurants. The ethos, celebration of community and cherished family recipes make this a one-of-a-kind dining experience, counting the days until I can go back! Thank you Cedars!!!! 🖤🤍❤️💚“

“I live in Dallas, and they don't have restaurants like this. I miss this restaurant so much that when I saw it was open, I got excited and ordered a lot of food...large and small turkey tips and a turkey Italian dipped. When I bit into my food, I was in heaven! I love that Just Turkey is still around, I wish there were more locations throughout the city.
