We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, the staff was very helpful and friendly, and we will definitely be returning in the future. View all feedback. What Kimberly Kennedy doesn't like about Ishka:
Filthy restaurant. Despite only having 4-5 tables occupied with diners, dirty dishes were piled up on all spare tables and in the time we were there staff made no attempt to clear up. If front of house is allowed to get this dirty and u tidy, I don’t want to think about the state they let the kitchen get into. View all feedback.
