" I visited Opera Cafe Lounge for a birthday celebration, and it was a mixed experience. On one hand, the food was delicious and quite authentic. The kunefe we had for dessert was exceptional! However, the service during our visit was extremely slow and inattentive, which put a damper on the occasion. It took a while for our orders to be taken and even longer for the food to arrive. I raised this with the management, who were apologetic but didn't seem to make much of a change during our time there. I think I would give it another try on a less busy evening, as I'm sure the food itself deserves another visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Opera Cafe Lounge on a Saturday evening, and while the food was quite good, the service could have been better. The server was friendly, but there were noticeable delays in taking our orders and serving our food. When the food finally arrived, however, I was impressed with the freshness and flavors—especially the full-bodied flavor of the lentil soup and delectable baklava dessert! If you can overlook some service hiccups, the food here is genuinely fantastic and worth the wait. I'll return for sure, probably during a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Opera Cafe Lounge based on the rave reviews, and I must say it lived up to the hype! The decor was charmingly Mediterranean, and there was ample indoor and outdoor seating. We started with their mezze platter, which was delightful. However, I was slightly disappointed because my main dish, while good, was not as rich in flavor as I hoped. My companions loved their meals though, particularly the lamb chops. The service was friendly, but we experienced a wait for our drinks. Overall, it was a lovely time, and I would definitely return to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit to Opera Cafe Lounge was quite disappointing. Although the ambiance is lovely, the food did not meet expectations. I ordered a seafood dish, and the fish tasted old and not fresh at all. My friend had the lamb, which was dry. The service was also lacking; we waited unusually long for everything, and the staff seemed overwhelmed. I had high hopes for this place after reading positive reviews, but it seemed like they were having an off night. I might give it another try, but I hope for a better experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an incredible dining experience at Opera Cafe Lounge! The decor is charming, making you feel like you're in a Mediterranean haven. The food was outstanding; I tried the freshly baked bread with a selection of dips, followed by a perfectly grilled fish that was incredibly tasty. The service was attentive, and my water glass was never empty, which is always a plus! For dessert, I enjoyed their baklava, which was the icing on the cake for a splendid meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Opera Cafe Lounge with a group of friends, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we entered, we were greeted with a warm atmosphere that felt very welcoming. We ordered several dishes, including the renowned Adana Kebab and a variety of appetizers. The food was incredibly authentic, bursting with flavors that transported me back to Turkey. We enjoyed a delightful Turkish tea that complemented the meal perfectly. Although the service was a bit slow at times, the staff was friendly and attentive, making sure our needs were met. The portions were generous, and we left feeling completely satisfied. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to experience genuine Turkish cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently had lunch at Opera Cafe Lounge and was very happy with my meal. I had the chicken kebab with fresh salad. Although the chicken was delicious, I wish the portion was slightly bigger. The service was satisfactory and the atmosphere was bright and cheerful. I love the fact that they offer outdoor seating which is nice in sunny weather. I would visit again but hope for larger portions. " (*Curated Review*)
