This is the best Turkish food I've had. The mixed grill is a huge portion of every kind of meat. The lamb shank falls apart when you dig in with a spoon. Their baklava and other desserts are also incredible. read more

Great dining experience. Olga was our server. And being gluten free they were extremely helpful in preparing my meal so I had no issues. The owner came out to give me my options and suggest items that would be safe. This was so helpful because it's always a worry to make sure I don't have a reaction. The place was beautiful ( I love all the lights) All the food was delicious, as were the drinks. Would definitely come back. read more

We had our Christmas Eve meal with my parents here. They have never been to Bosphorus and always wanted to try. We arrived for our 530p reservation. Our waitress was Elcin. She asked if we needed any recommendations so we accepted. She shot straight for bottles of wine. Haha. My father loves wine so he got a bottle of something for everyone to share and I got a cocktail. We did the mixed appetizer to share. Our entrees were the mixed grill, lamb shank, shrimp casserole and chicken sis kebap. All the food was good. My mother had asked if there was cheese on the shrimp casserole and she was told no. There was cheese on top. Elcin was great throughout our meal. My dad looked through the check after getting home. My cocktail was half off for happy hour. He learned that glasses of wine was also on happy hour and we could've gotten glasses instead of the whole bottle. Waitress recommendations....We weren't too happy about that. read more

Who knew they'd undergone such a massive renovation!? I hadn't been in about 5 years and was surprised at the new look. I was also disappointed with the food. But the service was good! I ordered doner kebat (surely I misspelled that). The meat was dry and waaaay overcooked. It used to be moist and tender. The cabbage salad and shredded carrots under it were fresh, crisp and flavorful. The lavash was perfect! I love that bread! My sangria (white sangria) was terrible! It had no flavor and was watery. I used to love their sangria! I love the service, vibe and the new decor but the food was a major disappointment. read more

Central florida doesn't have a lot of authentic Persian, Turkish and Afghan restaurants yet Bosphorus definitely makes up for that! The food here is delicious, freshly prepared and it's definitely my comfort food spot! The menu here is quite extensive yet the amazing kebabs with their butter flavored rice and the perfect lavash bread are my favorites! They expanded/updated the restaurant recently and added a bar which makes the place even more enjoyable now! The flavors are so authentic and delicious that it's tough to stop eating despite the very hearty/large portions! Also I feel that they excel at service as well which makes every visit so enjoyable! This is definitely a spot to try if you are in mood for a delicious and real middle eastern food! read more

While visiting Orlando on a business trip, our colleagues suggested Bosphorus for a dinner outing and assured us we would love it. We did! The interior is just beautiful, with many unique light fixtures, cozy booths, spacious tables, and it's not too noisy. Service was on point and everyone was very helpful with recommendations and assistance. The food. Everything we had was amazing and our group tried many options, from assorted appetizers to seafood, chicken, salads, and then desserts that were totally unique. We will definitely go again the next time we are in town! read more

Bosphorous - Dr Phillips - Lamb Shank - Turkish Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Bosphorous is a lovely little, warm restaurant. It has a cozy, romantic feel that makes it perfect for a date night spot or for a girls' night out. As a vegetarian, I sometimes feel a little disappointed in the food offerings at local restaurants. This was NOT one of those times! The food was some of the best I've had. However, please note that the portions are HUGE. We started with the Karisik Meze and a nice big Lavas. It was a little pricey, but it was easily shareable and highly satisfying! So, be warned, huge portions, high prices, and major deliciousness!! Did I mention? We had some of the BEST service we have EVER received EVER!!! read more

I love going to Bosphorous! Every time I've gone it has been great service and food. Tonight was no different. We had a rather large group of 9 that were quite talkative. Our server, Michael, was very patient working around that. He also made some recommendations that people were very pleased with. As far as food, you can't go wrong with the Lavas and the mixed appetizer (this can be a meal in itself!). Vegetarians will have quite a variety of food options, piecing together sides, or going for an entree. I like the vegetable sauté, but tonight I went with the spinach and feta pide (think flat bread that has been folded up into a boat shape). This came with a little bit of mixed greens salad, raw matchstick carrots, and pickled red cabbage. All the food is arranged very nicely on the plate making for a nice presentation. The pide was yummy and I liked the pickled red cabbage. Personally, I'm not a fan of the matchstick carrots; they are challenging to eat. My only gripe has to do with the price. The sides and the mixed appetizer are a little on the high side for what you get despite the quality. But, that doesn't seem to stop me from coming back! read more

We ate at the Bosphorous Turkish Cuisine located on Dr Phillips Blvd. We started with several appetizers including Lavas, Babaganoush, Falafel and fried Calamari. The Lavas, Babaganoush and Falafel were very good while the fried calamari were average. We enjoyed their version of Mule, Turkish Coffee Martini, Cosmopolitan a Peach Bellini. The Turkish Coffee Martini was the best of the bunch. We all ended up ordering the mixed grill for two (times three) which included Doner Kebap, Chicken and Lamb Adana Kebap, Chicken and Lamb Sis Kebap, and Chicken amd Lamb Köfte all served over rice pilaf. Each was very good, but especially the chicken and lamb Adana. For dessert we tried the Pistachio Baklava and the dark chocolate mousse. Both were delicious. Service was very attentive throughout read more

Have ALWAYS been a fan of Bosphorous and have been to many of their locations. This was the first time we went to this location since they expanded, and I must say it makes this location, and the overall ambience, even better! Food, as always, is delicious and filling. Our server, Olga, was a gem!! she was so attentive as was her serving partner. We came in for a small family reunion (10 people) with some out-of-town family that we have not seen in years. The staff made this such a wonderful night for everyone. I am so pleased that we chose Bosphorous for our gathering! read more

Last time I had such delicious Turkish food was at uptown NYC on the east side I forgot the name but I know where it is & it's my fav Turkish restaurant. But this place OMG absolutely excellent food!!! The unfortunate thing is that it's not near me at all!! But I know when I'm in town again I'll definitely be back!!! read more

Our server was extremely attentive and helpful with ordering our dinner. The restaurant is very clean and has an open atmosphere. The food was okay, very large dinner portions and a pretty dense meal. The appetizer was pretty minimal though, especially for the cost. Everyone was pretty happy with their choices but only ate about half of their plate since there was so much food. If I were to go again I would suggest to skip the stingy appetizers (we did the pick 2 cold dips) and come hungry for the dinner plate. read more

The service (Jules), the quality of the food and the attention to quality is outstanding. The background music is enjoyable and sets the mood for the delicious everything. Looking forward to next time. read more

Recently tried this place. My fiancé and I were in the area and open to trying something new, especially because they had a few vegetarian options.

First time going to the non-Winter Park location and for magical dining month and I would say I got well more than my moneys worth in food and service. I can't speak to the ambiance as I prefer to eat and drink at the bar, but I appreciate they have outdoor seating like Winter Park because I just think for communal food it adds an element. I had the spread appetizer, the lamb, and the pistachio baklava. Everything was good and the lamb was honestly a portion for 3 not one, just like everything else. My favorite part was honestly the wine list, whoever picked the selections seriously knows their shit when it comes to red wine and the prices were quite decent given the location (everything on restaurant row is usually overpriced and bang ass average). read more

Patte at the bar is hospitable and the food is consistently good. Appreciate the outdoor seating and the bar inside. Try the Lavas and the Mixed Appetizer platter. Good happy hour as well. read more

great food and service. Patte was full of energy and took great care of us Came to celebrate a birthday and received a free dessert read more

Appetizers and desserts were a bit undersized, especially compared to the very large entrees. Nice ambiance and very attentive service, although we were two couples, and were brought one bill without being asked. Me and my wife ordered the mixed plate for two which was plenty, our favorite cut was the chicken sis kebab. read more

This was a cute, hidden spot. I enjoyed the dinner here. I went with a group at work, and it was very accommodating. The drinks were great, and the bread (Lavos) & dips to dress the bread up was delicious. The actual meal I got itself wasn't bad. It came out different than I thought, I ordered the grilled sea bass (picture included), it wasn't bad just different. I'd recommend a first time try out the restaurant, especially if you enjoy Turkish food. It was my first time trying it and I wasn't disappointed. The bartenders were great, I wish I caught their name. read more

Really enjoyed our dinner at Bosphorous Winter Garden. We sat at the bar and both gentlemen behind the bar were engaging and quick to get us drinks and dinner. They made it a very pleasant experience. We enjoyed the feta appetizer plate with the fresh puffy bread for a delicious start to our meal and really loved the moussaka, one of our favorites. We drive specifically to this Bosphorous (Winter Park is a lot closer) because we like the modern feel and engaging staff. Please keep it up, we'll be back. read more

My favorite Turkish restaurant in Orlando. I like the other location more though. Good service, generous portions, nice staff.

I tried a new place tonight because Bosphorus closes at 9 through the week, and I regret it! BEST Turkish restaurant and one of the BEST in the Dr. Phillips area, as they highly value quality, service, and taste. Beautiful interior ambiance brings authentic Turkish cuisine to Orlando!! read more

Absolutely fantastic!! The food was amazing! We had the lamb and the steak kibob with rice carrots and red cabbage. The appetizers were delicious! Homemade hummus and the house bread was incredible!

We decided to try something new and followed the reviews here on yelp which was validated by our hotel front desk staff. Our server Salvador was fantastic he gave us some recommendations then gave us time to review the menu before returning to answer questions. We tried the lavas with Muhammara & Ezme dips which were both fantastic, although the Ezme was our favorite. We then had the lamb shanks as recommended, and we were blown away by the flavor and tenderness of the meat. We are new fans of Turkish foods and are looking forward to having this food again in the future. Our waiter (Salvador) was fantastic, checking in with us just often enough where we didn't feel abandoned but not too often where it felt overbearing. If you are visiting Orlando and have never tried Turkish food, this is a great place to try as you won't be disappointed with the food, and they will help you navigate the menu offering wonderful suggestions. read more
