Intimate, stylish restaurant serving traditional fare, including seafood, steaks & kebabs.
"Ali nazik (lamb and eggplant in a yogurt garlic sauce) and kasap kofte (charbroiled ground beef and lamb patties) are two Turkish dishes that diners won’t find in many other Philadelphia restaurants — but here, at this chic little BYOB off South Street. Try the flaky spinach gozleme for brunch; it’s also a good choice." - George Banks-Weston
"Sure, Isot is where you go when you want incredible Turkish food or can’t get into Zahav. But this cozy spot is also where you should walk in with a few friends or come for a solo meal and happily live off of grilled chicken, lamb kebabs, and five different Mediterranean salads every day of the week. The portions are massive, so you can reheat the rest the next night and further delay cooking that salmon filet that’s been in your freezer for the past two weeks." - alison kessler, candis mclean
"Sure, Isot is where you go when you want incredible Turkish food or can’t get into Zahav. But this cozy spot also has a lot of things that Zahav doesn’t, like plates of grilled chicken and lamb kebabs served with sides of vegetables and about five different Mediterranean salads. The portions are massive, so you can reheat the rest the next night and further delay cooking that salmon filet that’s been in your freezer for the past two weeks." - candis mclean, alison kessler

"This BYOB in on South Street is the ideal place for a halal date night. Tasty kebab platters, juicy lamb chops, and a generous mixed mezze platter are some of the highlights at this very intimate restaurant." - Ernest Owens
