I trusted the rave reviews and was very disappointed. The key problem was that they did not cook what they had shown us prior to cooking. The sea bass was not fresh and was also over cooked. The bream was stale. Terrible way to do business. For the price, I expect much better quality of food.

Since it was " near but not easy to find", Suzan arranged transportation with Restaurant. As van headed towards restaurant, it felt like a wrong decision : circuitous route, through traffic and narrow streets. And Yengec is in one of those... More
