The mixed grill plate featured a surprisingly tender piece if prime lamb chop and chicken breast, nestled in a heaps of doner meats and coleslaw. Highly recommend drenching that with their house hot sauce for that extra kick. Vegetarian? Maybe the lamb knuckle will change your mind about your misguided choice of lifestyle.

I first came across Bosphorus in Cardiff, and then discovered they also have a restaurant in…read moreBristol. While this means they must be a small chain, they each feel fairly unique - since the one I ate at in Cardiff has a waterside location very different to this one on Baldwin Street in Bristol. The smell of charred meat is what probably draws a lot of customers in here initially, particularly in the summer when the doors are open onto the street - but for me it was the promise of one of my all-time favourite Turkish dishes: Imam bayildi, which translates as "the imam fainted" and is made with aubergine stuffed with onion, garlic and tomatoes. The cavern-like interior is thoughtfully decorated if a little over-the-top, with mosaics and freezes on the wall depicting scenes from ancient Turkey. The mezze selection is wonderful and tasty, and the main dishes - although a little meat-heavy - have plenty of seafood options and are equally delicious. The most disappointing aspect of Bosphorus is how quiet it often is, and reading other reviews it seems not everyone has enjoyed such a good dining experience as I did, and this could account for their lack of popularity. What's great about Turkish restaurants in general, however, is how passionate the staff tend to be about their country and cuisine. I always end up in conversation with the waiter about Turkey, finding out where they're from and which dishes they were brought up eating. The staff here are no different - very friendly and engaging, and very happy to stop for a chat.

Nazar is described on a website as: "A Nazar or evil eye stone (Turkish: Nazar Boncugu) is an amulet that is meant to protect against the evil eye." It certainly does that, and that seems to have a side affect, which is amazing food! The food is all very traditional, and you can tell it all comes from very frsh sources (and tasty ones at that). You can also indulge yourself in a good selection of Turkish Wines. 'What on in Bristol' says that: "The restaurant attracts a wide range of customers from families eager to discover Turkish cuisine and to cherish memories of being on holiday in Turkey and enjoy the fine delights." Now, i've never been to Turkey, and from sampling some of the food I certainly want to visit! But, I am a bit worried that my expectation might be to high... There is a great feel from the service you recieve, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a family run business (which I am pretty sure it is)

We were not disappointed. Being a novice at Turkish cuisine we opted for the set meal for 2 at £18.50 a head. We had some bread and olives to start - bread was fluffy but really nice. Then came a nice selection of cold dishes including dips, Dolmas, Humos and others we could not pronounce. Next came a selection of hot meze, holumi cheese, meatballs and others. Large portions for starters very nice and good value. This was followed by 2 large mixed grills with chicken and lamb kebabs, lamb chop, savoury meat balls stir fry veg, salad and rice ( loads and enough for another person) The waiter was genuinly friendly and explained what everythiing was. Then we had a selection of Turkish deserts strawberries and cream followed by filter or Turkish coffee. We drank the house wine which was very nice too. Everything was freshly cooked and tasted delicious. What a wonderful place to eat - great menu great service very reasonable prices - we are definately coming again.

The interior is okay, they've got lovely wooden tables and cushioned benches, a lovely chandelier,drapes and pictures but you can't help but see beyond the decoration to the to the lifeless ceiling, walls and glass counter like in a kebab shop. The menu is very meat orientated, they did have two fish dishes and some salads but it's not great for vegetarians and if you're vegan I seriously wouldn't bother. It was a hard choice but my companion and I settled on a lamb Shish and yogurt dish and a salad to share. We also both ordered a traditional Turkish drink called Ayran which is basically yogurt, water and salt served over ice. It was a little strange at first as I'm used to sweet yogurt but it was really refreshing and complimented the food. We were also given complimentary breads, hummus and yogurt dip while we waited for our food. The salad was fresh and lightly dressed. The lamb dish was amazing, it had a layer of cubed bread, lamb Shish, a tomatoey sauce and yogurt on top. They also brought out rice. We only shared a main and salad which was more than enough for two people and the best bit was the bill was only £15!! We were so shocked at how cheap it was we ended up leaving a £5 tip! We'll definitely be going back soon!
