İstanbul Kebab Cafe Restaurant

We had a wonderful dinner at Istanbul Kebab Cafe Restaurant! We were a group of four and spent around 124€, and every euro was worth it. The atmosphere was fantastic—warm, cozy, and very authentic. The service was absolutely 10/10: attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. A lovely surprise was the complimentary baklava and Turkish tea at the end, which really made the experience feel special. Overall, great food, great vibes, and outstanding hospitality. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be back! 🇹🇷✨

Absolutely amazing experience! The food at Istanbul Kebab Cafe was outstanding — every dish was full of authentic Turkish flavors and cooked to perfection. The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely took great care of us throughout our visit. You really feel the hospitality from the moment you walk in. If you want to experience the full Turkish cuisine and true Turkish hospitality, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

I visited Istanbul Kebab Cafe Restaurant for lunch today and honestly wasn’t expecting it to be as good as it was. I ordered the Adana kebab, which came with rice, fries and some grilled veg, and it was absolutely delicious. I also had some hummus, and the staff brought over free yoghurt dip and salsa too – really nice touch. The salsa was amazing. Lovely outdoor seating with cool lighting, music and heaters. Great vibe. The service here is genuinely brilliant. Everyone is really friendly and welcoming. At the end of my meal they gave me a tea and a little dessert, which just finished it all off perfectly. It was so good that I actually came back again for dinner. This time I had the beef steak kebab and it somehow managed to be even better than the Adana I’d had earlier. Tender, full of flavour, and cooked perfectly. All in all, fantastic food, brilliant staff, and great value. The best meal I had in Istanbul – highly recommend!

My wife and I recently spent 4 nights in Istanbul and discovered Istanbul Kebap & Cafe on our first night. We loved it so much we ate here 3 of the 4 nights and regretted the one dinner we ate elsewhere. All the food we tried was delicious and the service was even better. You come in and they treat you like family. You are treated to bread with 3 different sauces to dip it in and when you are done with your food they treat you to Baclava and turkish tea and then an apple tea after that. I had the Swordfish Kebap, Sea Bass,and buttered Shrimp and my wife chose the Shrimp Casserole, Soy Sauce Chicken and Spaghetti Bolonaise and we both loved them all. We also had the rice pudding on two occasions and loved it. As a bonus, my wife loves her Aperol Spritz and could not find any where in Turkey that made them correct (we had already been in Turkey for 12 days) , until we came here. She loved them. We also noticed other repeat customers each time we visited. If you looking for great food, great service and good value for your money, dont hesitate to give it a try, you won't regret it.

Absolutely loved this place. Simple, honest Turkish kebab done perfectly - incredibly tasty, fresh, and exactly what a great kebab should be. The food was amazing, the service was genuinely warm and human (you feel truly welcome), and the location couldn’t be better. No pretence, just great kebab and great people. Highly recommended.🍖

We tried this place based on the great reviews, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. Every dish we ordered was delicious, and they even surprised us with complimentary appetizers — including the best pita I’ve ever had. The pistachio kebab was very tasty. They finished our meal with Turkish tea and baklava, which was such a nice touch. The food was incredible, but the service was just as impressive — every server was genuinely kind and attentive. This spot is a true local gem, and I’d gladly come back.

Let me start my review by saying I am a cheapskate and rarely tip but I FELT I had to at this place! The staff were so extremely kind, turned on the heater because I was cold and made sure I was comfortable at my table and explained the menu in a very pacient manner - the service itself is 5 stars already but the food was S P E T A C U L A R! Adana kebap with fries, rice, bread, dips, tea and baklava included is all you need to have a good impression of Turkish cuisine! Highly recommend it ✨

Great food, great prices and exceptional customer service. Ordered a few dishes for takeaway for fussy eaters. Not only was everything exactly as requested, it was all packaged in boxes and wrapped in cling film to stop any leaking. Everyone loved it. Got baklava and Turkish tea while I waited too. Thanks guys Also went a second time, but ate in. Same exceptional service and food.
