Chef Caglan is a very sweet person. We had a lovely evening with 15 friends. The communication is great. I was insecure about the concept, but he reacts very fast and took all my doubts away. The food was very good off tasting and seasoning. The ribs were scrumptious, but I believe in honesty, in this 5 star liked world. I am a spoiled women and some presentation could be fine tuned.
