Istanbul food in Manchester

“Well called here with the family for a meet up What can one say? But it was a pleasant evening. The food choices was very nice.Everybody seemed to have enjoyed what they had ordered. Price was acceptable for that's type a restaurant staff were very lovely and friendly. Look forward to the next time we are in the area and go back.”

“One of the best meals I have had in a long time. Staff were very attentive. Was not so busy so a little let down by the atmosphere. The decor was very authentic and colourful.”

“Fantastic lunch today at this hidden gem! Lovely friendly service, generous portions and everything we had was totally delicious. The aubergine starter was gorgeous and the lamb shish perfectly seasoned and cooked. We will definitely be back!”

“just been to book my dads 80th birthday for xmas eve whilst here we decided to have lunch we had a 2 course meal for £13.99 the food was beautiful staff were brilliant really helpful,Sergi and staff was amazing plenty of food i was able to take left overs home wools deco end anyone to cook a table”

“Full marks for the team at Istanbul. Very friendly service, perfectly cooked food and all at a reasonable price. We've been before and we'll be going again and the atmosphere is always really relaxed despite it being very busy. Fantastic Turkish restaurant, thank you to the team who looked after us both.”

“I went to this restaurant which was a very nice place to dine. I had the lamb casserole which was delicious and was served with rice and side salad with a nice glaze over the top. Besides the top notch food, the lovely server, Youssef, was very friendly, served with a smile and was happy to help with all enquiries. A nice place to eat, the only downside was due to attending on a weekday night, there was not much of a customer atmosphere. There was a nice background music playing and the restaurant was very well lit with some lovely wall decor. 9/10 would recommend and will be re-attending”

“Went for lunch the food was amazing. I will definitely be going again. Excellent value. Good service, staff friendly and helpful. There is an outdoor terrace to the front.”

“Really nice food, great service too, got complimentary Meze and Turkish tea too with our order.”

“A wonderful experience at Cafe Istanbul! The food and service were divine, and the atmosphere was perfect. It's an ideal spot for an evening with family and friends”

“The all round experience at the Istanbul Grill was excellent. The food was great and plentiful as well as reasonably priced. The Long Island cocktail got a big thumbs up from my partner and the entertainment was great too. Will be back soon”

“The new owners are very friendly and attentive, checked if the food was to our standard, if we wanted more bread and hummus. Food was delicious, would definitely call here again.”

“I visited here for the first time and I was pretty impressed. The store is really clean, well stocked and organised, something a lot of the local international supermarkets could learn from. They have a wide range of international products aside from their Turkish products, so I’d strongly recommend giving them a thought when looking for Caribbean, African, Asian and oriental items. The guy I was served by was very friendly and polite. Overall I’d highly recommend them and I’ll be sure to return.”

“Nice clean place to eat. It was very quiet when we went so it was pleasant for us. Service was good. Food is nice. It's Halal. Enough room for prams and wheelchairs. No parking on main Rd so you'll have to park in the side streets”

“The massala fish was amaaazing best I ever had”

“A good place and very good food and excellent service thanks”

“Once Leo's fish bar but no longer the case I really like the kebab- the texture and taste. The owner is so friendly and his moustache so fluffy We almost didn't stop, what a catastrophe Since we did tho we got well fed Even though we didn't ask got extra meat and bread I'd come again you know that's for sure Turns out it wasn't the fish I came in for Yum yum yum not one to miss”

“Stepping into Turquoise in Cheadle is like being warmly hugged by a restaurant that knows its own character inside out. The décor isn’t trying to impress with chandeliers or glitter thankfully but instead wraps you in warmth with local artwork on the walls that feels like it’s been chosen by someone who actually likes art not someone who just Googled “restaurant paintings.” It’s inviting homely and gives you the sense that whether you’re bringing the family for a big feast or sneaking in for a romantic dinner for two you’re in the right place. Now the food. This is where Turquoise flexes its muscles. Take the full English. It’s not a plate of sadness and regret it’s a proper spread. The sausages aren’t your usual limp Richmonds. No these beauties taste like they’ve just been pinched from a farmer who still sings to his livestock. I don’t even like sausages usually but these have that magic balance meaty juicy and full of intent. And if you fancy they’ll happily swap one out for a Turkish sausage which adds a little drama to the plate like inviting a flamenco dancer to your breakfast table. Their Mediterranean and Turkish dishes carry the same ethos generous but never sloppy bold but never brash. You can tell nothing’s rushed here. It all tastes fresh like someone actually cared as they stirred the pot. The staff are relaxed happy and with that ease that says “We’d rather be here than anywhere else.” They don’t hover like suspicious pigeons nor do they vanish when you need them they’re just right. And the value. Well it’s excellent. Other places might leave you nursing the sting of buyer’s remorse but here you walk away content your wallet intact and your taste buds gently applauding. Turquoise doesn’t just feed you it reminds you that food cooked with love and pride makes everything better. And if you’re lucky the sausages might even wink at you on the way out”

“Food was great, fajita meal was very filling (could possibly share it) chocolate brownie is the best I've ever had. Lovely restaurant, friendly staff. Recommend”

“The staff was welcoming and friendly. They happily made me fresh lemon juice even though it wasn’t on the menu ! which was really thoughtful The food was delicious with big portions at a great price. Highly recommend!”

“Tried this after watching TFT food troll youtube video and was blown away by how yummy the chicken donner in fresh bread roll £5 or £7 with chips and drink I thought it was just another sharwama from watching the video but it's nothing like you had before , it taste like perfectly golden trimmed rotisserie chicken with thyme or some type of herbs , reminds me of tge country tyrkey where they use minimal seasoning to show off the natural chicken flavour from the meat. Absolutely loved it in that bread with mayo and mint yoghurt Wish this place was in manchester it would do well here . The shop was clean and staff was friendly, proces are on tge higher side but it's quality. I've added a latest menu January 2024 P.s for some reason why I try to add pictures to this review it doesn't show my review so will try to upload it in the photo section”

“I really enjoyed the food. The service was excellent and the staff were very helpful. I got the mix grill for 2, and it was more than enough for me, my wife and 2 kids. The owners are great and made us feel very welcome. The decor inside is stunning and the food is fresh and really tasty. My little kids even got lollies at the end. Definitely recommend this place and will be visiting again. Thanks Asma for the delicious food.”

“The resteraunt has recently had a very nice renovation. I call in for breakfast quite regularly and the food is excellent. The atmosphere is relaxed. The manager and staff are very pleasant.”
