    Service excellent. Mike the bartender makes spot on drinks. Food excellent. My 4th time here and it is consistently good.

    This time around everything was excellent! We had a wonderful waiter, he was cheerful and friendly! The ambiance was incredible! I enjoyed sitting outside the restaurant with all my favorite Turkish music playing, for example Irem Derici and Hande Yener. The food was phenomenal, absolutely loved it all!

    This came highly recommended to me in regard to Turkish food and it did not disappoint! We stopped by and for an online order after a day at Universal (which is a literally 7 minute drive away), and they were very on time with the order and the workers were super friendly. We got the hummus appetizer of course, which was refreshing and delicious with fresh-baked naan pieces. There were so many yummy-sounding entrees that it was difficult to choose. A kebap was what we went with and it was so delicious, with strong tomato flavor and perfectly cooked meat. Inside the restaurant was also super cute and fun so I'll definitely be back to dine in. If you enjoy Turkish & Mediterranean food keep Bosphorous on your list!

    Located in a pretty busy area. Specially during lunch hours. It's my first time here. I came with a large group of coworkers. We were seated right away. Our servers were very polite and attentive. They started taking orders right away. That is always a plus when you have to go back to the office. I ordered the Lamb Sis Kebap from the lunch menu. You can order from the regular menu as well. It's a very generous portion. I loved the seasoning. My dish was very tasty. I would love to return with my family to check out their regular menu.

    First time here but it came highly recommended. I ordered the Lamb shank served with rice pilaf, the lamb was tender and juicy, very well-seasoned, it was a bit too salty for what I typically like, it would have been perfect for me with just a tad less salt. we also ordered Muhammara, it was delicious with the Lavas bread. I would come back to try something else because overall i enjoyed it, service was fantastic and it is big enough to accommadate large groups if necessay.

    Outstanding, outstanding, outstanding! My wife and I tried this place based on recommendation from McKenzie at the Spa on Marriott Grande Vista property. When we got here we were greeted by Ashley who was our server as well. She was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the different offerings. She point us in the right direction and we ordered what tou see in the pics. Everything and I do mean everything was absolutely delicious. We have eaten at a lot of restaurants in Orlando which includes alot of Disney property establishments, and I will say this was top notch. Worth every penny! Speaking which, we thought that everything was reasonably priced! Listen I cannot speak to the other locations, and cannot even promise your experience will be like mine. All I can say is do not regret not giving it a try!

    Is 10 stars an option?! We lived in Orlando for quite some time, and used to love to go to this restaurant's location in Winter Park. It was delicious and so flavorful- the food was always amazing... so would their Dr Phillips location be just as good as we remembered all those years ago?! Yes! I was in town on a work trip and was staying at a hotel on Universal property. Upon seeing this nearby, I was so excited and knew I had to make it over for dinner while in the area. We walked in and were immediately greeted by the sweetest man! He took us to a nice booth immediately, and told us our server would be there shortly. This was a very warm and hospitable welcome from him. Our waitress appeared almost immediately to ask about drinks. I ordered a glass of wine from Turkey and we also got some Turkish sparkling mineral water. We ordered falafel appetizer, lavash, and their mixed meze plate. The falafel we're perfectly cooked and had great flavor and texture. The mixed plate came with their homemade hummus, their homemade yogurt sauce, their homemade red pepper sauce, and a few others. The lavash bread was warm, buttery, and topped with sesame seeds for great flavor. Each dip was amazing - just when you think you've decided on your favorite, it changes with eat bite because they're all so amazingly flavor and delicious! For main course, we shared their beef and lamb kofta - served with carrot salad, fresh red cabbage salad, Turkish rice, and some sauce. Again - the flavors are just perfect. From the char on the meat, to all of the accompaniments, I could eat here at least three times a week! No room for dessert, but I cannot stress enough how delicious all of our food was. The staff, from the host gentleman when we walked in, to our wonderful waitress... this is such a great place. I'll be thinking about our experience here for months to come! Until we meet again, Bosphorus!

    Cold Cucumber Dip (Cacik) and Lavas (Hollow Bread)
    Alaina S.

    It was so good I'll be back this week with family! Everything was wonderful. Ordered the lavas and the cacik (cold cucumber dip) and it was phenomenal--the portion was large and bread was so pillowy and warm. The cacik was fresh and flavorful and paired perfectly with bread and my cocktail of choice. There was a little wait between receiving my drinks and app but it was all forgotten when it came out lol. The chicken sis kebab was also yummy--chicken was well seasoned and juicy, the rice was perfectly cooked and the vegetables were fresh and crisp. Now let's talk decor--this restaurant is so tastefully appointed with gorgeous glass lamps and lighting fixtures throughout. My server Madeline was attentive and knowledgeable and the entire staff was friendly, ensuring I was having a wonderful experience. Fave restaurant of 2026 so far :)

    Came here for a late dinner on a Saturday night. The inside is nicely decorated and staff were friendly and efficient. The food was excellent, my lamb chops entree was delicious and also we enjoyed the falafel and baklava. Food portions were large for each entree.

    Went to this plaza to eat at another restaurant originally. But ended up walking in to Bosphorous. I'm so happy that I did. The food was amazing. Had the lunch beef kebab special and Turkish bread. It was absolutely delicious. Great service so friendly and attentive. I will return for sure.

    I just recently visited Bosphorous and I've been Meaning to come here for a while. I'm so happy I finally got the chance to come in here. The food was so delicious. It came out hot and fresh. The server was professional and very attentive. The moment you walk in you're treated kindly and greeted with a warm Smile. Definitely try the Turkish bread !

    SPECIAL BEYTI KEBAP:  Chargrilled lamb wrapped in pita and topped w/ tomato & yogurt sauces; serviced w/rice and pickled cabbage and carrots
    Beth M.

    Great food, great service, great ambiance! I dined here with a small group two weeks ago on a Tuesday evening. We made reservations at the last minute, and were easily accommodated. We started with the Mixed Appetizer ("a combination of Humus, Babaganoush, Sautéed Eggplant, Muhammara, Ezme, Tarama, Haydari and Zetinyagli Yaprak Dolma"), Lavas (baked-to-order bread similar to pita), and House Salad. Everything was so good - an auspicious start to what turned out to be a wonderful meal! For the entree, I had the Special Beyti Kebap, and my husband had the Lamb Shanks. Both were outstanding. The other three members of our group enjoyed their entrees as well, which included the Beef Sis Kebap and the Chicken Saute with lemon sauce. The portions were huge, so we didn't have room for dessert AND we took leftovers with us. Looking forward to returning when in the Orlando area again.

    Wow, wow, wow!!! We have been to this warm cozy and magnificently decorated restaurant many times but we always do the "Lamb Sis Kepap" today we decided to try the "Lamb shank" and it was absolutely amazing. Literally fall of the bone! Our server Olga was also great, kind friendly AND efficient. There are several locations of Bosphorous but I have only been to this one and it never disappoints!

    In short : A gastronomic journey through Central Asia to delight your palate…read more This is a diamond in the rough ! I have to be honest .. I have never had food from Uzbekistan.. and I had to google where the country is located (Central Asia next to Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan) nonetheless .. it was a delicious adventure. We ordered a pitcher of the organic Kompot... it was a lightly sweet drink with notes of hibiscus , apples and berries . It was light and refreshing . Appetizers : Samsa- a pastry found in Uzbek cuisine. Flaky, savory, and filled with beef/ lamb and onions. This was nice.. we shared one.. it's a decent size . Mezze Platter- your traditional dip platter with hummus ; babaganush, Haydari, spicy ezime (this was not spicy) and a spinach dip. Served with warm pita bread.. also delicious. Uzbek bread- a fresh baked bread served with butter on the side. This was just okay. I wouldn't get this again. Mains- Chicken shish kabob- delicious . Perfectly cooked.. not dry. Served with some type of tomato sauce on the side. To'y Osh- star of the show in my opinion. Lazer rice that is topped with chunks of beef . Cooked with yellow raisins, carrots and sautéed onions. This was to die for . Soooo delicious and very unique to any rice I've ever had !!! Desserts: Honey cake - a buttery tower of beautiful flavors. I cannot describe how delicious this was. Soft, creamy, and gave notes of graham cracker crumbles. Get this! Baklava - just okay .. didn't taste fresh . Overall I highly recommend this unique find .. friendly service and beautiful decor made me feel as if I was in Central Asia . Also we noticed many Russians and Uzbekistani's eating there as well so it much be a good representation of their cuisine!

This was my first time here and I was really sure what expect. I had a peek at the menu online before hand and thought that I'd at least try the lamb. The menus are QR style and already on the tables. The table was also preset with dinner plates and silverware. Once we began filing into the restaurant, our server came out with water and glasses. A beautiful, fancy, blue set of glasses, mind you. I was beginning to think that this is a bit fancier than I had anticipated. For my order, I decided on 2 lamb jazs and a pot of Uzbek green tea. The tea pot was very cute and fancy. Each meal came out correct and everything looked delicious. My lamb was pretty good, and I enjoyed having the warm tea with dinner. The portion sizes were surprisingly large, most of us had to get a to-go box. The prices range from low to high and they seem to have menu that provides something for everyone. Overall, I liked this place and would consider dinning here again.

We ordered the mixed appetizer and the famous lavas bread. To our surprise we got a flat, deflated pita bread instead. Lavas bread is a signature dish of Bosphorous so I called the waitress and asked why the lavas bread was deflated. Answer: must have a hole. The manager came around so I told him the same and added that I had chosen this place for my birthday and was looking forward to the round and puffy lavas bread but got a pita bread. His answer: some time that happens. Sorry but for a restaurant of this level, they shouldn't let their signature appetizer leave the kitchen if it isn't perfect. End of story. And at least the manager should have cared but didn't. Otherwise, my husband and I shared a mixed grill, my mom had a shrimp dish she liked and they did bring me a dessert with a candle which was nice. If I go back to Bosphorous it won't be this location. Parking was Ok but it was also Wednesday.

Lale is a small, cozy restaurant with the most delicious food. I am a huge fan of Mediterranean food, but had not had Turkish food before.

Fan favorites for me and the table included the mixed grill (even though it says serves two, if you order appetizers it can absolutely serve 3), the hummus (truly some of the best I've ever had), and the Kunefe. The Kunefe - oh my goodness - it's like nothing I've ever had before, but our table devoured it and stated that they just found their new favorite dessert.

    Our order: chicken şiş, lentil soup, appetizer platter…read more The Review: It must be noted that their happy hour includes 50% off cocktails. They might not contain the highest quality of alcohol but...fun girls' night (hehe). We started off with their mixed appetizer platter (can't remember the exact name) which was so worth it for the opportunity to try all of the dips! They are able to modify this platter to make it gluten free, and it turned out so well. The real star of the show was the chicken, which was perfectly seasoned and grilled, I can't get over it. The lentil soup was also good but it didn't come out hot, which was not amazing, so we had to ask for it to be heated. GF people note: the rice contains wheat noodles so it is not GF. However, they told us that the grape leaves, which are filled with rice, are actually gluten-free. The staff were so warm and accommodating, and we loved our experience here. Thanks, Bosphorous!
