Istanbul Hawaii

 Istanbul Hawaii has quickly become of one of my current favorite places for dining in. Not only do they have outdoor seating, but their service is always fabulous and so is their food.

I tried the Meze Platter for the first time, and I would definitely recommend this as a starter! This really could be a meal in and of itself, but don't do it, otherwise you'll miss out on the pita wraps and plates.

The three of us each ordered different menu items, all of which were very flavorful and filling.

organic chicken tenderloin pita wrap

doner pita wrap

lamb tenderloin (2 SHISH)

Although we were extremely full from the platter and our entrees, we (well, it was mostly ME) just had to order the baklava.  

Can you count the layers? There are 40 layers of filo in there!

I love everything about Istanbul Hawaii - the food, ambiance, parking (there are spaces directly behind the restaurant - enter off of Queen Street), and the service.  Reservations are highly recommended. Take-out is available!

Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
