Kiva Restoran

The Verdict

Kiva, an elegant restaurant serving Turkish cuisine with some twist. I found the mezzas to be better than the main course which was still not bad. The pumpkin with tahini dessert was better than the baklava. Worth a further visit. Service was good. What I noticed was that they add a 150 TR cover charge per person to your tab then they add a 10% service charge. So basically, they are double dipping on the service charge. However, tea and coffee are complimentary.
