The atmosphere was great and the food was pretty good, but the service however was completely atrocious, especially for the price we paid for the night. We had been seated and waited about 20 minutes to find that we were scanning the wrong QR codes to pull up the menu (which in my defense there were like 4 codes on our table and none of them said menu so when I scanned the one to leave a review I assumed they were all the same.) Then when our waiter finally arrived he was rude and clearly frustrated as he kept saying "I already told you" to our questions and seemed to rush us along to order, even though this was the first time we'd seen him in the 30 minutes we were there. Then another 30 minutes went by and we had our drinks (which were insanely overpriced) but were never asked about refills or anything of the sort. Then when our food finally came out we were very impressed with the look of the dishes and the flavor of my chicken was truly exquisite however, my mother who ordered the salmon found that it was severely lacking in flavor and just seemed to have a bunch of spices on it without any actual flavor. All these mishaps could have been excused if it wasn't for the exorbitant price that followed! $165 for three people who each ordered an entree and a specialty drink. In no way was the food worth the money and the drinks themselves were watered down and lacked any alcohol. Not to mention we were charged a late night service charge of 20 dollars even though we had been there before 1 am and the only reason we were there till 1:04 was because they took so long to bring our bill. The only redeeming factor about this place was that we were able to see Shaquille O'Neal as he was leaving during our meal. Besides that, this place is just a cash grab with little in the way of actual substance.

If you’re in search of a culinary haven where Mediterranean flavors dance on your palate and the ambiance feels like a warm embrace, look no further than this amazing place! This gem of a hookah lounge serves up the most divine grilled dishes and rice that’s so fluffy and flavorful, it’ll make you question why you ever settled for anything less. But let’s talk about the real star of the show: Vereniz, the waitress extraordinaire. With a smile that can light up the room and service that’s nothing short of impeccable, Vereniz turns a simple meal into a memorable experience. Her recommendations are spot-on (tequila mojito and desert on point), and her knack for making you feel like the most important person in the room is unparalleled. The grilled lamb is a symphony of spices and succulence, while the chicken skewers are marinated to perfection. And oh, the rice – it’s like each grain was individually blessed by the gods of flavor. Pair it with their smooth, aromatic hookah, and you’ve got yourself an evening that’s equal parts relaxing and exhilarating. Whether you’re a regular or a first-timer, Vereniz’s expertise and excellent service will make sure you leave with a full belly and a happy heart. So grab your friends, and come experience the magic at cafe Istanbul – where the food is fantastic, the vibes are chill, and Vereniz is ready to make your night unforgettable! Enjoy your culinary adventure!

I had the pleasure of visiting the Cafe 34 recently, and it was an incredible experience! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by a cozy, inviting atmosphere with smooth lighting and chill vibes. The staff was friendly, professional, and attentive — they made sure we were comfortable and provided great recommendations on flavors. The hookah selection was top-notch, with a variety of high-quality options. We tried rose mint and they were absolutely perfect — smooth and flavorful with just the right amount of smoke. The lounge itself is clean, well-maintained, and has a great selection of comfortable seating for both groups and solo guests. The music was the perfect backdrop — not too loud, just enough to set a relaxed mood. The drinks and snacks were also delicious, with plenty of options to complement the hookah experience. Whether you’re a seasoned hookah enthusiast or a newcomer, this place offers a fantastic and memorable experience. Definitely planning to return soon. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a chill hangout spot with quality hookah!

I recently visited Cafe 34 Istanbul and had an incredible experience! The ambiance is laid-back and stylish, perfect for a night out with friends or a relaxing evening. The food was delicious—everything from the appetizers to the main course was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I had the pleasure of being served by Mandip, and I can't praise him enough for his outstanding service! He was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made sure every detail of our experience was perfect. Whether it was recommending dishes, checking in to ensure we had everything we needed, or just his warm and welcoming attitude, Mandip truly made our evening memorable. It's rare to find someone so dedicated and passionate about providing top-notch service. Thank you, Mandip, for going above and beyond. The hookah selection was also fantastic, with a wide range of flavors to choose from. Overall, Cafe 34 Istanbul is a great spot for good food, excellent hookah, and great vibes. I’ll definitely be coming back soon!"

Cafe 34 Istanbul hosted my bellydance troupe after our late night performance. The staff and manager were very accommodating with us having to move our reservation time to allow us our performance slot and photos after. The manger greeted us and took care of us. We were welcomed with bellydance music!!!! We got to dance around the restaurant! It was magical! His staff was punctual with our orders. The food was amazing. The girls said their drinks were strong and flavorful and that the hookah was tasty and smooth. We were offered complimentary kunefe by the manager himself! This restaurant went out of their way to please us and above and beyond to accommodate such a large group of us! What an amazing place to celebrate our success! I highly recommend Cafe 34 Istanbul. The scenery was amazing, perfect for photos. We got complimentary valet parking. The baklava was sooo flavorful. We will be back next year. Thank you giving us an amazing memory and the perfect ending to a perfect night!

Had a great time at Café 34 Istanbul! My friends and I stopped by after dinner for drinks and hookah, and the vibes were perfect. We sat outside, which added to the relaxing atmosphere. Parking was easy—we used the garage and walked over. Our server, Vereniz, was fantastic—super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would definitely come back. Highly recommend for a chill night out! Highly recommend!
