" I've heard many good things about Istanbul Cuisine, but my first visit was a bit underwhelming. The food was decent, but the service left much to be desired. I had to wait quite a while for my pide, which was disappointing. I may try again in the future to see if things improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" After going to several Turkish places, I found Istanbul Cuisine to be authentic and delicious. The food quality is excellent, but I did feel the service was sometimes lacking during busy hours. The chicken pide could have been spicier to suit my taste. Overall, worth a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" Reasonably priced, and the food is delicious! There's something about the freshness of the ingredients that makes everything taste great. The only downside was the lack of seating space. Overall, a solid choice for a quick and tasty meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food here is authentic, the service can be hit or miss based on the time of day. My last experience involved a longer wait despite the place not being too busy. The lamb pide was good, but slightly greasy for my liking. I appreciate the fresh ingredients but hope for more consistency in service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! What a gem of a restaurant! I stopped by Istanbul Cuisine while shopping at Bellevue Square and was blown away by the quality of food. The spices were just right, and everything felt homemade. The vegetarian gozleme was fluffy and the filling was generous. The ambiance outside is lovely as well, though seating is limited. Just a note — try to order during less busy hours to avoid a longer wait. I can't recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great establishment! The focus on authentic Turkish dishes shows the owner’s dedication to quality. I loved the vegetarian options here, particularly the cheese and spinach gozleme. You can tell it's freshly made. The waiting time is a bit longer during lunch, but that's expected for good food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot say enough good things about Istanbul Cuisine! The staff are genuinely welcoming, and they take pride in their work. The lamb pide was succulent and packed with flavor. Even though there isn’t much seating, the outdoor area is pleasant for a quick meal. This place is a hidden gem in the Bellevue area! " (*Curated Review*)
