Went to this lovely little restaurant with my daughter for Mother's Day. Excellent food! Will be back....

The food was excellent, and the portion size was massive, full of protein, just the job after an 18-mile walk along the Ridgeway from Watlington to Wendover... in winter conditions.

avoid at all costs this indefinitely not an authentic turkish restaurant the we ordered 2 mixed doner kebab's, these were not make from fresh cooked meat and were frozen and either reheated on a hot plate or in a microwave and had never seen a gyros machine. tasted like fake cheap meatThe salad was coleslaw one again no onions, tomatoes, cucumber or cabbage.the bread was half a slice of flatbread not turkish bread or even pitta bread.No hummus or bread while you're waiting and the chilly sauce was from a 5 lite jar not made on site either.The venue really carries noise when we were seated we could hear every word sentence pause and breath the female couple were saying who were 3 metres away.they also added a 12.5% service charge not disclosed on the menu.Also the prices have been increased dramatically from the prices on the menu shown here.We so wanted this to be a nice place and only saving grace was the lovely young waitress who was polite and well spoken.

Great food in a very lovely location. A lot of choice to eat and a wide range which caters for lots of different tastes. Between our group we ordered different breakfasts, wraps and egg dishes - all were really good. Very friendly service. Loved the decor too - spent ages spotting different places around the world on the walls.

First time here and have to say....WOW. Katie our waitress was 5 star, clear, attentive but not over the top and very good. The food was perfectly present and tasted amazing. Really can't fault our meal tonight at all. We will be back very soon ?
The pizza in this place is out of this world. All the food is amazing though. Very generous portions. Great value for money . Excellent service. We will definitely be returning

I had an incredible dining experience at Istanbul Restaurant. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted by friendly and welcoming staff who made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, creating a comfortable ambiance. The food was simply amazing! Every dish I tried was bursting with flavors and made with the utmost care. The meats were incredibly tender and cooked to perfection. I also couldn't resist trying their delightful ice cream, which was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. The attention to detail and the dedication of the people working there truly made it a memorable experience. I highly recommend Istanbul Restaurant to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience.

Kebab was fine, mixed starter was nice. The burgers were cheap and horrible.

£18 for a salad. Decaf coffee was like dishwasher. Shame it used to be a good place.

Beautiful restaurant. Staff were amazing and friendly. Food was hot & full of flavour. Milkshakes are a must too! Couldn’t fault it at all.
