Hot tip: we had a lot of leftover meat, so we shoved it in a croissant and added a bit of garlic sauce and it was incredible!

I was fortunate enough to stop in and try their mixed grill, feta cheese pide, lava cake, knaffeh, kefta and chicken kabob platter all of which I highly recommend. Their bread for appetizers was fluffy and rich. Their baklava w/ ice cream was the best we've ever had. The knaffeh had the perfect amount of sweetness and was matched with their traditional Turkish tea. Their service was great. The gentlemen matched our interests with the menu and often checked in to make sure we were ok without being over bearing. The food was absolutely delicious and we were very happy we stopped in. The atmosphere was quiet as we noticed some people sit in but their takeout services are in high demand. Great location, fantastic food, truly a new hidden gem at just 8 mins from Rainbow bridge . The Mississauga location has been raved about for so long. I still have to visit but I am glad they are promoting together online and on IG which is how I found this one so close to home! Thank you!

Bosphorus Turkish Cuisine is a great spot for authentic Turkish flavors in Toronto…read more I ordered the meat pide and the lamb Ali Nazik, and both dishes were excellent. The pide had a perfect balance of crispy crust and well-seasoned meat, while the Ali Nazim was rich, savory, and beautifully plated. Portions were generous without feeling heavy. Enjoyed the fresh Bosphorus bread. The staff were warm and attentive, and the service felt relaxed but efficient. The cozy decor and light Turkish music added a nice touch to the atmosphere. Prices felt fair for the quality, and I'd definitely come back to try more of their menu. Highly recommend if you're craving real Turkish comfort food!

We also tried the salgam drink; this comes in a little plastic bottle, and was a hit for those who like salty beet drinks, though not my personal preference.

If you want to eat here, make sure to come with reservations; we had to leave after only an hour.

The plate had a good variety of meats and no BS (unlike some other restaurants that throw fries on the plate and call it 'delicacy'). They also didn't dip everything into lamb oil to "enhance" the flavour - you could actually taste the meat itself. The beef was soft, the chicken was juicy, and the lamb was tender. They also offered free naan and dipping sauce, which was very nice. For dessert, we had baklava, $4 for a small piece, but we had no complaint considering the free appetizer earlier. Service was okay. The staff was friendly and attentive.

We really liked the…read morefamily-friendly atmosphere of the restaurant and the friendly and welcoming staff who delivered top-notch hospitality. We ordered "Mix Appetizers" to share, which was served with freshly baked Turkish bread. Spicy Mash had a bit of a kick, but not too spicy, which we enjoyed. Baba Ganoush, Haydari and Hummus were fresh and tasty. For main, we ordered "Efendi Lamb Chops", "Efendi Meat Shish Kebab", "Beyti Kebab", "Sac Tava" and "Spinach and Cheese Pide". Efendi Lamb Chops And Efendi Meat Shish Kebab were served on a hot sizzling plate which was really fun to watch and they were the most tender, juicy and flavourful ones we have ever had. Pide was fresh and the cheese was very tasty. Beyti Kebab had a bit of a kick to it which we really loved; we also enjoyed the combination of yogurt and Spicy Mash; it was a great combination with the veal wraps. Sac Tava was a great combination of cubed beed, green peppers and spices. We loved every bite of our food. We ended on a sweet note with freshly made "Kunefe" and of course Turkish coffee. Kunefe was very delicious and right amount of sweetness. Turkish coffee was served in beautiful cups and we enjoyed both.

It feels like a fast food restaurant combined with Turkish food. To be honest, I don't remember the meals we ordered that day. However, that also tells you that it's authentic. The meat was very flavourful. I smelled the spices immediately when they were served on the table. Eating the food with the yellow chilli peppers was a fantastic combination! Highly recommend giving it a shot if you are not scared of eating spicy food.

The first time I ordered was about two years ago during Ramadan. We were fasting, and at the last minute my uncle called to say he was coming over to break fast with us. I think I placed the order only about an hour before iftar, expecting it to be rushed or average at best. Instead, the food arrived fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. Everything tasted like it had been cooked with care. The flavors were incredible, and honestly, as I'm writing this review, my mouth is watering just thinking about it! Since then, I've ordered from them many times, and the quality has remained consistently excellent. The portions are generous, the food is always flavorful, and they've become one of my go-to places whenever I'm in Mississauga. Highly recommended!

Food is amazing, but service is non existent…read more Food 5/5 Service 1/5 Ambiance 4/5 Came with a reso for five adults and got seated promptly. The restaurant got busier throughout the night. The restaurant has a beautiful interior and high ceilings. Service here is little to none. Which is unfortunate since their food is so good. After taking our orders we were never checked on. Asked 2 different servers for extra serveware and never got it. Had to ask more than once to get water. Overall the service is BAD. What saves this place is definitely their food, as it's very delicious. Definitely start with their variety of dips for sharing. Here's what we got: Mix Appetizers 5/5 - Came with hummus, baba ganoush, spicy mashed and haydari. All delicious and served with fresh bread. Mixed Pide 5/5 - This was also great for sharing and tasting the variety of pide options. Came with cheese, minced meat, and sausage. Mix Kebab for 2 5/5 - This was more than enough to share with the five of us, as portions are large, especially when you are ordering other sides. A variety of meats including lamb, chicken, beef served with rice and salad. The meal ends with complimentary tea. Overall, delicious spot with great food but just lacks any type of service. So good that I'd still come back for their food.

It makes it very welcoming to both couples and big parties alike. The service was decent. Although we lost our server for awhile, she was usually around. Thank you to Buket for her diligent work. For the food, we had the Bereket Special Mix for 4 - and no, it's not for four people. More like 4-6 people for sure as I split this with a 5 person family. It had everything: beef gyro, chicken skewers, lamb skewers, lamb chops, veggie Urfa Kebab, Adana Kebab, Chicken Adana Kebab, bulgur, rice, onion rings, beef samosa, veggie spring rolls, and slice Lahmacun (found all these on their website) and yeah its worth it! Generous portions and even had enough to take home for another round. Overall - a great visit for an important family day! Would recommend to stop by and try!
