My partner and I had dinner booked at 7pm at Konak. We ordered at 7:10, and our food did not come to our table until 8pm. The food, however, was outstanding! We ordered a Turkish sausage and egg bread, and two chicken shish kebabs. I would 100% recommend this restaurant for food, however, wait times for food were unsatisfactory.

The food is amazing, unfortunately they have 2 young girls serving the whole restaurant, and they could not keep up.
