Great service

Alp is a true talent. We tossed him a number of curveballs the day before and the day of (unintentionally!) -- our stove broke, and he was able to serve an unparalleled, 5+ course meal without a stove top. His creativity, patience and expertise were the highlight of the night and we will definitely be using him consistently for all our events moving forward. Couldn't emphasize his skill and kind disposition more. 12/10, and then more stars!
