Cafe 34 Istanbul

We had lunch and food was really good overall. The food area is setup separately from the hookah section which is very good. The following day stopped by for a quick hookah and it was not bad at all, only qualm was that order of tea arrived in a large cup as opposed to traditional turkish tea cups. The server was really good so experience was very pleasant.

An authentic Turkish breakfast in Orlando, look no further! From the moment we walked in, the warm hospitality and cozy atmosphere set the tone for a perfect meal. The breakfast spread was absolutely incredible — fresh cheeses, olives, jams, honey with clotted cream, crispy börek, and perfectly cooked menemen. Every bite tasted like it was made with love and traditional flavors straight from Turkey. The bread was fresh and warm, and the Turkish tea kept flowing — just like it should! Service was outstanding — friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about every item on the menu. You could tell the staff truly cared about providing a genuine experience. Whether you’re familiar with Turkish cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place will leave you impressed and planning your next visit before you even leave. Highly recommend to anyone who loves a hearty, flavorful breakfast!

I’m from Canada and was visiting the area with my girlfriend. We were looking for a late night place to get some food, and the bouncer from the bar we were at recommended here. It did not disappoint one bit. The music and atmosphere was electric. The staff was very welcoming and quick to answer any questions. I will say the food was a little pricey, but it was incredibly flavourful and the portions were huge. All this combined with a properly set up hookah, made for an amazing experience. I will definitely be returning the next time I’m in Orlando.

I had high expectations based on the positive reviews, but my experience didn’t quite align. While the food was flavorful, the overall offerings fell short for a dinner setting—especially for anyone with dietary restrictions. There were very few gluten-free options, and unfortunately, even the rice includes orzo pasta, which limits choices even further. Gluten free sides were limited to fries (not ideal due to potential cross-contamination), and there was no side salad available—only full entree salads. Portion sizes were also surprisingly small for what was considered a dinner plate. The server was vey kind and tried his best to adapt one of the meals but in the end I had a $30 skewer of beef kebabs with some shredded lettuce and a lot of onions as a side. That said, the environment leans more toward a Turkish bar than a full-service restaurant. It’s a great spot if you’re looking for drinks, appetizers, or to enjoy hookah in a lively setting. But if you’re seeking a traditional dinner experience, it may not be the right fit.

Our group came for a conference, decided to come check this place out. Gigi onboarded us and explained how the food + hookah works, and it was a pleasant experience. The blue dragon is amazing, and we did apple as well. Such a great alternative to having drinks at a bar. Great conversations and good vibes from the staff to the other patrons. Highly recommended if you’re ever in the area or visiting from out of the town!

I promise this is the only review you need to read.. The reason I came here on our first night in Orlando was because I was craving Arabic/Turkish food and saw in the reviews that Shaq comes here often. Not that I needed to see Shaq but I knew If he loved the food then it must be good. The food, ambience, and service was so good that I came back again on the second night. I will come back for life on every visit to Orlando. Ask for Fatih or Gracio, amazing service from both. Everywhere else we went in Orlando felt like a tourist trap, a bonafide Chilis. Not here, extremely authentic and full of locals from Orlando.

Bengu was our server and she gave us a great recommendation for the food. We ordered Ottoman platter for four people and the food was excellent!!! Waitress Molly was also kind and super helpful!

The vibes here are fantastic! The music is always spot on, the hookah hits, the service is attentive. Our server was great, Grecia was on her P's and Q's!
