    Delicious and authentic Greek dishes. Lovely tzatziki. Great service, thanks Rachael!

    Grilled Octopus, lunch platter, and their amazing Sangria

    Every single time we pass through Plattsburgh we make it a point to come here! We love the great food, sit outside, sangrias, octopus, gyro...you name it, we love it every time. Wish we had you in our town!!

    Gyro platter entree

    This is $41 at Alekas. To be fair , the 2 pitas and 2 Tzatziki sauce cups are not pictured. No lettuce, no tomatoes, no onions which used to be included. the Tzatziki sauce was more like runny sour cream with garlic and no cucumber. The waitstaff was rude even though I left a larger than required tip for takeout to support them. Won't be doing that again. Alekas used to be a real good restaurant with really good food. I'm suspecting new management or owner? Maybe Bidenomics ? Either way I would have gotten a better gyro platter and way cheaper at any county fair and without the waitstaff's attitude. Not sure what happened inside but it was dark , in disarray and uninviting. I've been eating here with my coworkers for over 10 years. Disappointed, yeah. Will I recommend them, no. Will I go back, probably not. It's really sad after reading other reviews to see a Plattsburgh food staple fall from grace. (10 days and no response from owner says all you need to know)

    Apple pie Sangria. It sounds it would be sweet but was not. Very good!

    This place was hopping busy. We had spanakopita pie, fried calamari, & cheese pizza & added gyro meat. The pizza was amazing. The calamari was a little tough and chewy. The service was great in spite of how busy it was. Come & Enjoy!

    Greek fries!!! Delicious

    We had delicious food. Our service was wonderful. We had a really great lunch today. Even the desserts were fantastic. The hummus really was splendid. Our favorite part was the Greek fries.

    The food was delicious, could have been 5 stars, but the food came very slow! Just for the 4 of us we had to wait almost for half an hour after we ordered our food, for that I subtracted a star.

    After our delightful first visit, my wife and I knew we had to come back to Istanbul Kebab House…read morefor a proper meal. Last week, we decided to turn our date night into something special with dinner at this Turkish gem followed by a Broadway musical, Newsies, at the Flynn Center. We made a reservation in advance, as this spot is quite popular in the evenings - especially when there's a play happening nearby. The ambiance was inviting and warm, with soft lighting and traditional Turkish decor creating a perfect setting for a romantic evening. The service was exceptional, and our server, Alexandra B., made the experience even more memorable with his attentiveness and friendly demeanor. We started with the Small Meze Platter ($16.99), an excellent choice for sharing. The platter featured haydari, hummus, babaganoush, Turkish salsa, and stuffed grape leaves, all served with soft lavash bread. For those seeking a gluten-free option, fresh-cut veggie sticks are available. Each dip and spread was bursting with flavor, making this a must-try appetizer. For the main course, I chose from the Earthenware Casseroles and ordered the Lamb Guvec ($27.99). The tender, marinated lamb pieces combined with tomato, mushroom, onion, pepper, and eggplant were served sizzling hot, and the aroma alone was irresistible. It was hearty, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the recommended 9oz glass of Vinkara red wine ($16.50). My wife selected the Chicken Adana Kebab ($22.99) from the Traditional Kebabs menu. The mildly spicy, hand-ground chicken seasoned with Turkish maraş pepper and parsley was grilled to perfection and served with Turkish rice pilav, a side of greens, house pickled red cabbage, and marinated onions. She enjoyed every bite and complemented her meal with a 9oz glass of Ancyra white wine ($16.50), which was light and refreshing. To close the evening, we indulged in a classic Turkish dessert, Baklava ($9.99). The layers of fresh phyllo, walnuts, and crushed pistachios, finished with a simple syrup, were the perfect sweet ending to our meal. Istanbul Kebab House continues to impress with its excellent food, cozy ambiance, and impeccable service. Whether it's a casual dinner or a special occasion, this restaurant is a must-visit in Burlington. We'll definitely be back again!

    Food was tasty and flavorful and the service was fantastic and welcoming. We did find it very…read moreoverpriced for lunch (small lentil soup $8, wrap with no sides $15). Loved the Turkish black tea, which is a must for tea drinkers!
