Al the experience was really good. They receive you with a lentil soup and bread, both are really good, the rice is also included with the entrees, we ordered kabobs, beef and chicken, and another dish which forgot the name but was veal meat and also very good, last a dessert, which is stuffed with cheese and you know what, it was really good, the only but was that espresso machine was broken and the alternative, Turkish coffee was not good as we expected.

I’d never eaten here before. I chose this Restauraunt after using the “Between” app to find a location between the three couples meeting —- but boy am I glad I did! The service was outstanding and the food delicious. Note when visiting that the Restauraunt sign is dark so you could miss it. Use a navigation to find it. I’ll definitely go back again

We had a wonder first time at tap and bitter. It was a quiet Sunday but the staff checked in on us throughout our dinner. We always had water and didn’t feel rushed and they gave us time in between courses to relax and enjoy each other company
