   The website says they serve breakfast in Kenwood and on Saturday's they open at 9am. I made the reservation for 9am and I received a notice that the reservation was changed to 11am automatically which was confusing because there was no explanation given on opentable. So we assumed their hours had changed and my 3 friends and I arrived at 11am. We arrive to find out that not only could we not order breakfast, we could not order lunch either. We could only order from the dinner menu. We though this was ridiculous since we came for brunch so we left and went to First Watch. Truva needs to update their website and their menu which has lunch listed on it. We were very dissappointed in this experience. We wasted time and money coming all the way to Kenwood to try this place. The waiter was very kind and apologetic which was appreciated.

   Our experience started out well, with our waiter greeting up upon seating and taking our drink order, but it went down hill from there. The hummus was cold and the Chicken Kabobs and Chicken Thighs both had a strange crunchy texture and odd flavor. The Mixed Vegetables were also cold and our waiter pretty much disappeared after the food was delivered. We have had such great experiences at Truva, that we plan on giving them another try and fingers crossed, that this is not a trend.

   We sat at the bar on a Saturday night and had a lovely meal. Our server was busy but friendly and took good care of us. The food was delicious, especially the sampler appetizer platter for two. It is a lively restaurant but the noise level was never a problem and everyone was in a celebratory mood. I am looking forward to going back to this restaurant.

   Overall pretty good. I'm not sure if it's because we dined later in the evening, but the meats we received on the mixed grill platter were dry. I'd eat here again for sure but stick to their veggie options, which were very very tasty and authentic.

   Wonderful food but very poor service. We placed our order and asked to be coursed out. Our salads arrived as we were just eating our appetizer and the entrees arrived 3 minutes later. We had all of our food on the table at once and it was very unpleasant. Terrible experience.

   So happy to finally find a good Turkish restaurant. Food is very delicious and service is solid. Also happy to see it was busy and Cincinatians are embracing cuisine outside there Midwest comfort zone.
