Lamb gyro (left) and dolma (right)
Laura B.

Please please please give this place a chance! I knew I was coming back to have more food even before I opened my to-go box. The man working was so kind! He new I was a first time customer and handed me a paper menu and we discussed what kind of food I like. He then proceeded to circle all the menu items he think I'd like in addition to showing off the lamb in the food case. I would love to go back and sit down for food someday, too! You're probably waiting to hear about the food though! Boy was it good. The dolma was perfectly wrapped and tasted so good with the olive oil. The main dish was also Amazing. This rice is so delicious and they give you so much you won't go hungry. The meat was also mouth watering. I can't wait to try more things from this place!

Baklava, thin Pasteur with honey and pistachios

This place was very cute, their food was pretty good for my first time at a Greek restaurant. I had a chicken wrap with all the stuff that a gyro has because they only have lamb gyro. The service was good and the restaurant looked nice.

We were in town for work and didn't think we would ever find halal food in Morgantown. Not only did we find this place but it was so satisfying. The food tasted fresh and homemade and the kitchen was so clean (coming from someone highly sensitive about this issue). Non-greasy, high quality meat. The service was also great and reminded us of back home. I got the chicken shish sandwich and my husband got the ali nazik. Both great. Happy to have such a good halal meat option in an otherwise hard to find area.

Excellent food. Very nice staff. Cool vibe. We are excited to eat here again. Try the lamb shish!!

Knew we had to come try this place after seeing pictures of the food. Istanbul Restaurant did not disappoint! We ordered the falafel appetizer, the kofte izgara and baklava. All were delicious and beautiful to look at. Wonderful dinner and outstanding service as well! This place is a MUST try

I love this place. The food is very good and the owners are quite helpful and nice. They make great recommendations and remember what I liked from visits over a month ago. Very fresh and made to order. I love the sides and the lamb kabob was awesome.,,don't let the tricky location deter a visit. You will enjoy.

Although not Ukrainian, this restaurant has very similar flavors. The inside was incredibly charming and very cozy. The restaurant is inside of a small house. We were taken into a side room that did not have any windows, but was uniquely decorated. We shared the fruit compote drink, which was very good. We also had a Kachapuri bread with mashed potatoes and cheese and their signature dish which was meat and rice. Everything was very good in the service was great. I believe that the food was likely Halal, although I can't be for certain. They did observe the Muslim call to prayer while we were there and offered prayer mat to guests who wanted to pray. We felt very welcome here and I would recommend this restaurant to others.

A huge part of what makes this place so special is the owner, who is often (if not always) working the front. He embodies the absolute best qualities of true hospitality: he is attentive, genuinely warm, and deeply welcoming. He has this wonderful gift of making you feel completely looked after and valued, which is the ultimate comfort after a long, exhausting week. It is rare to find a place where the service feels this personal, consistent, and heartfelt. Whenever we order from Bosphorus, I get the Karniyarik, and I freaking loooove it. My bf loves any of the kebabs. The food is always incredible, full of flavor, and never disappoints. Whenever we can, we will sit on their patio which is dog friendly. Great vibes all around!

Easy, timely ordering and pickup. The food is excellent too. The meat dishes were delicious; we had chicken and lamb Adana and both were very tender. Each dish also comes with a good helping of pita. Falafel was excellent too. The platter comes with six pieces, rice, and salad, whereas the appetizer comes with four pieces. The Bosphorus salad was very tasty and had a nice light dressing. Cigarette Borek was a crispy, yummy and beautifully presented appetizer. We also went in person one Friday evening. The food was delicious as always but the experience wasn't quite as great. The air conditioning wasn't working so the place was sweltering and everyone seemed frazzled. The bathrooms were also a little run down.

Also added side of grilled chicken, which actually was on the side it was like a full plate of grilled chicken. So I definitely had a leftover box to take home in an entire second mail the next day.

When I arrive there were only three other tables but by the time I left around 7 o'clock the restaurant was full and they were also having many takeout orders.

The service was good! The pricing was good ! My problem is , I discovered ants in my drink! Kinda takes your taste buds out of the game when your brain says you drank bugs! Brought this to our waitress attention and she gave me another glass of of soda , that I had no intention of drinking. So we pressed on as the food was good. The waitress brought a sky tab for payment and brought more ants to the table. I called the waitress over and she apologized and took this to the owner or manager and came back to us with offering free baklava! The person in charge couldn't be bothered to come and address the situation even as we were the only people in the restaurant. I won't ever go back, even though the food was good. After standing up, I noticed VEVO insect lights plugged into every outlet around the dining room. So they know they have issues , Apparently Mediterraneans don't have people skills! Sorry! Just my experience at a restaurant of a cuisine I tried for the first time today! I wouldn't have given a negative review if this issue was addressed better! I don't blame the waitress, I blame the person in charge!

The menu lists many meat, seafood, and vegetarian options, and the chefs can accommodate customers on gluten-free and vegan diets. Examples of menu items are lentil soup, babaghanoush, falafel, shepherd salad, lamb chops, many kebabs, sea bass, sautés, house-made desserts such as baklava, and non-alcoholic beverages. My husband and I ate one lunch here. Indoor and covered outdoor seating was available. The employees promptly greeted and seated us, and I appreciated that they recommended specific menu items to help me choose. After a reasonable wait, the foods were brought to our table. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Grilled Shrimp - 5 stars - Several large, juicy shrimp were on skewers and had been perfectly cooked. Sides were mixed vegetables and a mix of rice and bulgur. Chicken Shish Kebab - 4 stars - The chunks of chicken were large and juicy and had a mild seasoning. On the side was rice pilav. Turkish Tea - 4.5 stars - This black tea was a good size and was served hot. Packets of sweeteners were available. The total price was $55 plus tax and tip.

I started with a half order of their Greek salad. The salad came out looking pretty good and even though it was very lightly dressed, it tasted vibrant and bright from the cheese and olives on it. I wanted to get some more dressing, but the server didn't come back to ask how things were and she just kept walking by, not even looking for me to wave down. Overall, the salad was decent, but it did need a little more dressing. The kabob came up next and it looked ok. The kabob itself was more on the bland side... I didn't taste herbs and spices at all, more like just grilled meat. The bulgar was excellent and offered lots of flavor, so I tried to eat some with each fork of kabob I bit into. This dish came with a pretty large salad too, which was slightly depressing looking, with some wilted lettuce in it. I also tried their Turkish Tea to start and really liked that. Overall, the service was friendly, just not attentive at all. The venue looks welcoming and warm. Menu has many great options, I feel like I just tried the wrong thing.
