Bosphorus Istanbul Cafe
The Bosphorus Istanbul Cafe shouldn't be missed and really can't be. Occupying a magenta and purple house with fishscale siding, the restaurant is an eye-catcher outside and in. Fronted by a patio that opens for outdoor dining mid-May and charmed up inside with ornately painted floors, vibrant-hued walls and travel posters of Turkey, the place is a cozy and colorful stop for Turkish cuisine.
