    Falafel platter
    Mallibi M.

    This small hidden gem would surprise you! It's totally worth it the drive because the food was delicious and tasty. This place is also convenient if you have little time and want to eat yummy, because as soon as you enter the restaurant you order at the cashier your food and then they'll bring it to your table. No wasting time! I ordered the falafel platter with pilaf rice, hummus and pita bread and was delicious. Besides the food being delicious the staff was very friendly. Arysha and Cristian were both really attentive and that added up toy quick lunch experience ' I'll be back again and again while visiting PR! Malli

    Lamb, hummus, tabbouleh, warm pita and tzatziki sauce!!
    Cristina M.

    Is a really nice Cozy restaurant, food is excellent and taste fresh!!! To be honest the lamb is exceptional. I had authentic and homemade before and this place is really good!! Service is great, staff is always attentive the including owner and quick service!! They even bring the food to the table!. On the down side I think is a little pricey i f I compare to my to go places in Orlando and NY cause they cost the same and food here is a little cheaper! I recommend lamb platter or gyro, berry salad, tabbouleh, hummus, baba ganush, red sauce and of course Baklava!!* 100% recommended

    Sampler appetizer

    Nothing fancy BUT food was wonderful, we were in the neighborhood. Enjoyed sampler platter ( hummus, taboulleh, ezme). Lamb chops, salmon pasha.

    Nice decor

    An unexpected stop for lunch during a cruise stop in Old San Juan, PR, the Istanbul Restaurant was…read morea combination of Turkish dishes along with dishes native to Puerto Rico. My brother and I tried dishes from both menus, and found it to be quite good. As we were walking past, a small sign for 'Grandma's Kitchen' caught our eye. My brother had been encouraging me to try Puerto Rico's national dish: Mofongo - mashed fried plantains. Unfortunately, restaurants were just packed with long waits and I wasn't in the mood to wait outside in the sun for a long time. The door next to the sign stated that it was a restaurant called 'Istanbul'. We peaked inside, and was welcomed warmly by a host, who let us know that the restaurant was both Grandma's Kitchen/Istanbul. There was nobody else dining inside, which was weird considering how every other restaurant in the area was packed. The dishes are made to order, so took a bit of time for it to come out one at a time. Mixed Seafood Stuffed Mofongo ($25) - served in a wooden pilon, the tall and narrow neck was stuffed with the mashed plantains, topped with a seafood blend of clams, dense fish pieces, octopus, and squid. The sauce was really well done, not too rich, but buttery enough to accentuate the seafood. I have to believe the seafood was prepared from frozen, but it tasted really good: a definite notch up from the seafood I've been having on the cruise boats. It was the first time having mofongo, and I liked it. This version had fried plantain chips, mixed with the mash of more plantains. I don't think this version had pork skin rinds, and I didn't miss it. It's extremely dense, so ended up eating maybe a third of it while finishing the seafood. It's a solid alternative to rice, though definitely can't eat too much of it. Doner Kebab ($18) - from the Istanbul portion of the menu, this dish was tasty, though the meat was cooked on a flat top grill like a burger patty, instead of on a vertical rotisserie. The lamb/beef patty was loosely formed and well seasoned, with the accompanying tzatziki sauce being a good add-on. Both dishes were cooked very well, the back kitchen has some skills. Service was friendly throughout. Water is not offered, but guessing they will give to you if asked. Payment was provided after the meal, and they do stick on a mandatory 15% gratuity for all party sizes.

Don't miss out on their Turkish coffee. It was yummy!!! The restaurant is clean, ambiance is more like a traditional old world place. Don't miss out! And save space for the ribs.

We came back on Sunday and were promptly greeted and seated right away. The staff was very friendly, and the inside was cozy with decor styled in Mediterranean. The drinks were delicious and refreshing. As for the food, we had the hummus, salad, and kebabs, all of which were very delicious. I wish we had more time to enjoy, but they were wrapping up for the night, and we didn't want to keep them. I recommend going early and not too late since they seem to stick to the closing time. Overall, I had a great time and would definitely go back for the belly dancing show. Mediterranean food in PR--who knew!

From the first visit, the food stood out as fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared, which immediately made it a place we wanted to revisit. When we returned for breakfast, it didn't disappoint.

The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive on both visits. The staff made us feel comfortable and appreciated, which added a lot to the overall experience.

The so-called fresh orange juice is a complete misrepresentation--it's pre-bought, not squeezed in-house, and tastes just like store-bought store-brand juice. Four of us ordered breakfast, and every single plate came out cold and dry, as if it had been sitting out from yesterday. The ambiance is barely welcoming, worsened by a waitress who seems to have an excuse for every problem with the food. Can a restaurant be sued for false advertising? They display a tempting photo on the menu, then tell customers, 'If you want your French toasts just like in the picture, you need to ask for it, and it will cost extra'--ridiculous! This might just be the worst dining experience in Old San Juan... Horrible place and experience....
