Delicious food, very warm, family atmosphere. Great selection of traditional Turkish dishes. Generous Portions. Our server was amazing! We are definitely going to be back and recommending this little gem to all of our friends.
First time trying - I have to say, everything was delicious! Service was top notch. Food was so flavorful and fresh. Quantity and quality, both were amazing! Will be coming back soon.
Remarkable 🤩 Delicious!!
Had a great meal at Istanbul Mediterranean Grill!! Generous quantities too - based on prior visits/take outs , we ordered our meal family style to avoid leftovers and/or wastage. For a party of 4, we got a mixed/mezze of dips, which was served with warm bread and each of the dips were delicious. We then had mixed grill which was served on a beautiful platter. Everything tasted great, the portion was perfect for us to share, the quality and quantity were both satisfying and we had a wonderful time.
For dessert we had the walnut baklava and the table's favorite for the night was Kunefe.... Loved it!!
The fresh baklava options displayed look ridiculously tempting 😋 It took a lot of energy/effort to walk away from this display!!!
At a quick glance, the market within this establishment offers a nice selection of Mediterranean spices, frozen deliciousness and snacks.
We recommend this restaurant to all Mediterranean food lovers!
The charbroiled chicken thighs are amazing!!! The marinade is solid and the bed of rice it is served on is delicious. Fresh tomatoes, onions and pickled cabbage is a great accompaniment. The homemade bread is so good and great with the hummus. Amazing fresh food!
Absolutely loved the place. Both food and service were amazing. Had the Mixed Grill and Lamb Curry. So Good ! We finished it all. Thanks to the waiter who stopped us from over ordering. Loved it and going back with extended family now.
Another gem in Tampa. The food here is substantial, authentic and oh so very tasty! We walked in on a Saturday night. It was packed but we were seated within 20 min. The menu has all the classics and some adventurous options for those looking for something beyond kebob and gyro. Everything we had was delicious. Friendly service too. We'll be back!
The food is very good! The pita is handmade. Inside the restaurant is a little market with Turkish food, there are a lot of things from frozen baklava, teas, Turkish coffee and food!. You can order the food and go to the market to check all the products, there are lunch specials too on weekdays. The fresh baklava it's amazing!! 5 stars!!! Enjoy the tea or the coffee without rush!!
Have gotten take-out from here quite a few times. Always excellent. The food has been perfect every time! Highly recommend.
So much food and so flavorful!!...
My husband is a picky eater,and he loved the plate we ordered. We ordered the cheese cigars as an appetizer, and we shared the regular mixed grill plate as the main dish for the variety of meats that came with rice salad and fresh baked bread. It was enough food to feed a small family of 4. They have a small market and bakery with a mixed variety of food and non food items from their country. Will definitely go again to try more of the food.
This place is like travel to Turkey. The food is amazing, got all the flavors from Mediterranean and Midwest cuisine. The staff is so great. Thanks to the owner to bring this awesome restaurant to the city of Tampa.
