    Bosphorous is one of my favorite restaurants. I love the decor and vibe. I always get the iskender kebap and end up having leftovers. On this visit, we were seeing a show at Rollins after and I knew I wouldn't be able to take any leftovers with us. We decided to get the mixed apetizer with lavas. So delicious! The muhammara was my favorite out of the seven. Will definitely be ordering that one moving forward. Ended the meal with a turkish coffee. Was such a nice light meal before the show.

    Kebaps: Lamb, Beef, & Chicken Plate for Two
    Megan R.

    A friend called me up and asked if I wanted to try a new restaurant. We ventured to the walkable downtown Winter Park area and found Bosphorus nestled among the other restaurants. I really enjoy middle eastern cuisine, so I knew I was in for a treat! We went on a Saturday night, so all of the restaurants in the area were busy. Bosphorus was no exception. Luckily we found a table outside so we didn't have to wait. I ended up being really thankful for that - as a person with sensory overload issues, I would have been completely overwhelmed had we been sat inside. I will cover that in a separate paragraph below. If crowds aren't your thing, or you're just looking for a more intimate meal, I recommend going during the day or on a week night. Our waitress was so kind and gave us a tour of the menu and a few recommendations. We definitely appreciated her advice when our hot, pillowy Lavas bread came out to our table. We got a few of the dips to try with it and we were in heaven. Honestly, bury me in that bread - it was delicious. If that was how our meal started, I knew that more great things were to come. My friend and I couldn't decide what to try, so we ordered the meat plate for two - and we were SO glad we did. We were able to try a little of everything: the kebaps, doner, and patties. The meats were perfectly cooked and the pickled veggies were the perfect compliment. The plate was definitely more than enough for two and was absolutely worth the cost. It was so good, I had to unbutton my pants after I was done eating. Unfortunately, we had eaten too much to also have room for dessert. Oh gosh darn, I guess that means I just have to come back! Overall accessibility: It was a Saturday night. The restaurant was packed with people - which lends credit to how great the food is - but that means it had lots of people noise, plate noises, loud ambient music, and very little space to move. I had only been inside long enough to ask for a table outside, but I was immediately hit with sensory overload. I personally could not have sat inside if that was the only option. The restaurant does have outside seating, but it is also quite cramped and directly next to the sidewalk/road. Again, it was a Saturday night, so the outdoor seating was also full of people and the sidewalk and streets were full of people getting to their destination. I traded the inside noises for the outside ones - car noises, constant traffic going by, pedestrians walking/talking, and people coming very close to your table. I personally had a hard time staying focused on my conversation and my meal. If these things sound awful to you, I do not recommend going during peak restaurant times. At bare minimum, I recommend sensory overload earbuds and getting a table outside, but closer to the restaurant than the street.

    Special Beyti Kebap

    We came in for dinner and had a fantastic experience. The service here is truly exceptional! The restaurant is beautiful and well decorated. We always start with the lavas with hummus and muhammara. The hummus is so fresh and delicious. The muhammara was very flavorful and it became my new favorite with flavors of red pepper, pomegranate, and garlic. For my entree, I got the special beyti kebab. The dish was beautiful. The lamb was so tender and well seasoned. The tomato and yogurt sauces were rich and delicious. The portion is also huge. Overall, this is a fantastic experience and we love this place.

    Upscale Turkish restaurant with delicious, authentic flavors. Everything I tried was great! I did miss the traditional Turkish tea at the end like other Turkish restaurants I've been to but overall a wonderful dining experience.

    Special beyti kebap
    Bo K.

    We were in town for the theme parks and was recommended here by a local friend. From the start, the service was fantastic. Our party was able to try a variety of dishes and drinks and everyone loved it. ' For starters, we did the karisik meze to try all the dips with the lavas (hollow bread). We liked every single dip but my top was the babaganoush. The hollow bread came out hot and fresh and was the perfect vehicle to pick up all the yummy dips. My favorite entrees were the special beyti kebap, moussaka (forgot to take a pic of it), and lamb shank. The flavors were balanced and meat was cooked well. Brought me right back to my trip to Turkey. We were too full to try all the desserts but we did get some baklava, of course. They were the perfect sweet end to our meal. I wish we had a good Turkish spot where I live but I will definitely be returning whenever I'm in the area again.

    This is my second time at Bosphorous, first at this location. Really busy Restaurant and Parking in Winter Park IYKYK I went to another location a few months ago and wasn't impressed with the food, I had the Lamb Shank at the time, it was too salty. I'm glad I decided to give them another chance. This time I went to the Winter Park location. I ordered the Lamb Chops with Rice, for appetizer we had the select two and the Lavas bread creation. Haydari and Mahummara, they were both great, the Mahummara was my favorite. The Lamb chops cooked medium was awesome, great flavor and cooked perfectly...I love Lamb Chops. Ana our Waitress was great perfect 10!! She was attentive, made recommendations and great conversation even while having a very busy Restaurant. I also had 2 drinks, the peach Martini and a classic Margarita, both were very good. So happy I gave it another try:)

    The food here is absolutely delicious. I got the chicken saute and split the chocolate hazelnut baklava with my husband. It was so good!! The waitstaff were super nice and accommodating. Great for a date night

    Yo. Bosphorous is a SPOT. This place was awesome. The food, the service, the atmosphere. All fantastic. Andrew was our server, and he rocks. He was super knowledgeable about the menu and made tons of recommendations, which we decided to follow, and I'm glad we did. Everything was freakin delicious. He's also super friendly and very attentive. Andrew, if you see this, you rock dude. We tried some of a special Turkish red wine they had available, of which they are supposedly the only location in the United States that offers it. It was damn good. I personally am a beer guy, so I went with a Turkish beer instead, and loved it. The food here is CRAZY good. I inhaled my plate. Food also comes out in good times, doesn't take too long. I wish I could remember what everything was called but im terrible with remembering some of the more traditional names Dessert was delicious. We had a Turkish dessert that was some kind of filo dough with cheese and pistachio and maybe some kind of honey maybe? It was GOOD! I ended the evening with a Turkish coffee that was strong and very flavorful, served with sugar cubes. This places is awesome. I can't wait to come back and try more of their menu.

    Mixed Appetizer (Karisik Meze)
    Mariam T.

    UNBELIEVABLE!! The food, the atmosphere, the service-- this place is an Orlando staple for a reason! This was my first visit and I was impressed by everything we ordered. Our incredible server, Sam, treated us like friends from the moment we stepped in and was incredibly attentive. She alone is a reason for a five star review, but the food also exceeded our expectations! Getting the bread and mezze platter to start with is a must! The kunafe also blew our minds. I cannot wait to come back.

    Drove from Melbourne, Florida to this location, about an hour drive. The parking situation was not the best specially when the weather was not looking so good. Having reservations was a plus, we arrived and were seated within 5 minutes. at great service. Our server was great, very attentive to our needs. We ordered the 5 hour braised brisket which was delicious. The Atlantic salmon was tasty. The humus with lavas bread was so good we just kept munching on it. For dessert we ordered the chocolate mousse which is made with Turkish coffee. Yum! The whole experience was nice.

    Emily K.

    I went here the other day and sat outside, the waitress was very attentive and constantly checked up on us. The food was good, we ordered the hummus and bread and I got this chicken dish. I will say I do not think the food was anything super special, it was honestly something I could make at home and it taste exactly how they describe it, but I think it's very cool to have this kind of cuisine in downtown Winter Park. I think it's more of my preference than anything wrong with the food because it came out fast and the portions were great. I would definitely come back!

    From the minute you walk in the door you feel like you're in Turkey. The decor and staff are amazing. You get a traditional Turkish greeting and feel like family. The wait staff was great and offered up suggestions and were just on top of things all night. We went here for an anniversary celebration and they made us feel special. We started with half price cocktails and went onto the hot puffy bread and two types of dips for it. The entrees were served quickly after ordering and presentation was awesome. The Waiter offered us some great suggestions. We topped it off with a Turkish baklava that was fresh and delicious.
