Dropped into the Bosphorus tonight for dinner. Didn't have a reservation but was seated straight away. Went the Chefs special, a selection of kebabs and a lamb cutlet on top of a bed of rice and salad, a real treat. Service was very good, the food took no time at all to arrive, and having it cooked in front of you is lovely.

Overpriced, nice food, grilled meat but most things on menu are minced. Just some cabbage and rice with bit of meat. Mark up must be high but atmosphere and staff nice.

Amazing food, captured the Turkish taste perfectly. The meat was juicy and tender, and the chicken wasn't overcooked (which is what I've often seen in Turkish restaurants). Staff were very friendly and helpful, though the prices were to match. I recommend number 41 on the menu, of which I cannot remember the name unfortunately.

Very nice food although my salmon was a bit overcooked, veggie delicious, perfectly done if the butter will be put over could be 5✨, sea bass wonderful the same as the salads. Garlic mushroom starter very good. Wine from Turkey surprisingly good, that’s surprise for me. Service excellent. Sautéed lamb liver superb. I would most definitely come here again.

Group meal on Friday with colleagues. Service was very attentive and quick. The food was good, probably considered ‘amazing’ by non-accustomed Turkish food eaters. For the more accustomed, I would describe as just good. Some of the starters were on the high-side price wise for what they were. Mine (dolma) was fine. Nearest parking is at Waitrose (can no longer park in Market Square although appears many still do). Parking at Waitrose from 6pm is free. Would recommend and will return.

Ordered a takeaway, they forgot part of my order. I ordered a dish that clearly states it includes rice and salad. As I was unpacking the bag, I noticed the rice was missing. I double checked my order to make sure it came with rice. I ordered this dish before and it came with everything. I called to let them know the rice was missing. The staff didn’t even apologise just asked for my address. She asked if I still wanted it and I said yes. She said it will be delivered soon which it wasn’t. I wasn’t even hungry anymore but I paid for it. This place is a bit pricey. I ordered from here several times and was always happy with my order. I gave it a 2 rating because she wasn’t very friendly on the phone. I expected an apology for them forgetting part of the order but nothing. So disappointed.

This arrived in a timely manner and was deliciously seasoned and well cooked. Staff were very friendly, and the Efes beer was delightful. All round good meal, and will be returning.

Family get together for significant birthday (70th) and we had a fantastic time. There was a delay in some of the main courses but the restaurant was really busy and they made amends by not charging for them on the bill. By far the mixed grills and kebabs are the stars and the cold Mezze starter is huge so order sparingly ( Mezze for 2 did 3 people easily) . The staff are fantastic and friendly so definitely we will be back when we are back in the area. Shout out for Jacks’ cabs as well as they recommended this restaurant

Ordered drinks and starters which was okay. Waited another 45 minutes to order more drinks and mains. Waited a good while for any food to come out and even longer for the rest. Some had already finished by the time the last dish come out. They don’t call the dishes by name but by number so if you don’t have a menu handy you’ll be lost. The prawns were not gutted properly and had poop line still in them, we told them about this and they just shrugged it off. Most of the food was bland, rice tasted like it was microwaved. Not sure how it has over 4 stars. If you go here I’d say stick to the starters. Also had empty bottle and glasses in our table the whole time. Probably won’t come here anytime soon.

Lunch with family on a Wednesday. Staff were attentive and friendly, hovering just the right amount. I ordered the hummus for starts and the lamb dish for main. Both were delicious though the meat portion on my lamb dish was significantly smaller than that of my companion's. Finished off with the delicious baklava. Excellent food, bright and fresh decor, amenities clean and in good conditions. No complaints, just give me more food 😊

Chose St Neots as a midpoint to meet family for lunch. After searching online for local restaurants we decided to try The Bosphorus as we fancied something a little different and the menu online looked so enticing. Ate there earlier today and absolutely loved it. The restaurant is very comfortable. The large open foldback windows were lovely on a hot Saturday afternoon. Excellent service from all the staff. Best of all the food was delicious and delivered to the table very promptly after ordering. I would thoroughly recommend The Bosphorus for a great all round meal experience. It's just a shame I live 45 miles away...I may have to move house!

Food was average and unimpressive for the price paid. Salmon cooked lovely but the rest consisted of chips cooked from a supermarket freezer, overdone and unseasoned veg, bland moussaka and nothing-y rice and salad. Baklava good but the cheesecake was meh and tasted of sweeteners. Service was alright but a little blunt, plates whipped away as soon as you put your knife and fork down, mains took 40 minutes to arrive but other courses were speedy. It was busy so thats probably why. Dont think we would go again. Shame.

Food is slightly better than a takeaway, but priced as a mid range restaurant. Quite expensive for the quality of food on offer. I witnessed the waiter arguing with another table, on multiple occasions. Being a small restaurant it effects all customers. The food, the atmosphere and location do not justify the price point. Would not recommend.
