" A cozy little spot with truly delicious Turkish food! The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm. I had the chicken kebab plate, which I thought could use more seasoning, but still enjoyed it. Their baklava is definitely worth trying as well. Looking forward to my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found everything very fresh and cooked with care. My only critique is that some of the dishes were simpler than I would have liked. Yet, overall, this is a gem of a spot. The rice was particularly well made, and I enjoyed chatting with the staff, who were very knowledgeable about the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit, and I was impressed! The food tasted fresh and well-prepared. While I found the service to be friendly, I would have liked a bit more guidance on the menu options. Overall, I would recommend iCafe and am planning to return soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really excited to try iCafe based on recommendations, but I was let down. The doner didn’t have much flavor, and while the service was attentive, I felt the food didn’t match up to the hype. I hope they can work on that because I’d love to like this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" Don’t let the modest exterior fool you! iCafe offers some of the most delightful Turkish dishes. The ayran was refreshing, and the selection of pide is worth the visit alone. We felt the service could have been bit more attentive, but we will definitely be coming back for the flavors that feel authentic. " (*Curated Review*)

" Each time I've been to iCafe, I've left with a smile on my face. The waitstaff is always very attentive and remember your orders. I particularly loved their chicken korma—it’s bursting with flavor. The place itself is cozy, making it a great place to enjoy delicious food and good company. " (*Curated Review*)

" A great spot for authentic flavors! Our group enjoyed several dishes, and I can attest that the flavors were reminiscent of a Turkish kitchen. The service was warm and friendly, although they were quite busy. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the casual ambiance. " (*Curated Review*)
