SHOCKING Booked a table for 18h15. No service till 18h45 when they DID NOT direct us to our table but merely took an order. By 19h10 we just left. No drinks came. No apology. Absolutely RUBBISH service. Too many bookings and not enough staff or tables to cope. Money money money!!!!!! And tbh not such good food. We went to another restaurant on the High Street which was AMAZING!!!!!!

This place used to be outstanding and we would sometimes visit as often as once a month. It offered authentic Turkish dishes which you could not easily get else where. We were so disappointed at our last visit that the new menu has been dumbed down to such an extent. Gone is the mixed mezes for 1 which included such things as stuffed vine leaves, falafel, aubergine dip, feta cheese parcels, spicy sausage and more. A few of these you can order as a whole portion but no longer as a meze. Many traditional Turkish dishes seem to have gone and there are now items such as king prawn linguine on the menu. Why? Please don’t pander to fussy eaters who want to eat the same generic creamy food you can get pretty much anywhere. Also disappointingly the Lux sharing platter now doesn’t come with either of the two dipping sauces it used to, nor any rice, nor any salad. Ok, you can order rice separately but it seems penny pinching and the whole experience seems so watered down and generic. It wasn’t far off what could get as a mixed kebab from a decent kebab takeaway. I suspect they’re gearing more towards the takeaway customer than the eat in ones.

I hadn't visited the Istanbull Grill for a while but I visited on Friday night for a family celebration. The new layout looks good and I didn't notice any draught from the doors which had been a minor issue before. All 4 of us enjoyed our meals and in fact it exceeded our expectations. The sea bass was especially good as was the sucuk which we had as one of the starters. I would recommend sharing starters if there are a few of you. The service was attentive without being intrusive. I will visit again.

Popped in here whilst on break at work and opted for the 2 course set menu for £14.50 I had the meatballs and the lamb casserole and both were excellent!! The meatballs came plenty of Turkish bread to mop up the cheesy sauce and the lamb casserole flavour was immense Friendly service and great value lunch menu 👍

Having always wanted to try this place, Ii went for a mid week treat with my mum and sister last night. Why oh why have I not been here sooner. Lovely decor, fantastic staff and amazing food. The staff were were brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. Everyone was friendly and professional. We had the mixed grill between two of us and mum had the swordfish steak. The food was seasoned wonderfully and the meat was cooked perfectly. Cocktails and drinks were lovely and fresh too. We even managed to bring some of the mixed grill home with us too. We will certainly be back and will bring the rest of the family with us too.

Its such a shame to be writing this as we have visited this restaurant many times over the years…. However, we will not be returning. Although the food was lovely, our issue comes with their menu changes and the service charge they bang onto the bill. A year ago - you received your main meal with a side of salad and rice or bread. The prices and portion sizes were reasonable. However, after visiting last week for a mid week meal, we discovered that your main meal now comes with nothing else. Nothing. I ordered a mixed kebab and I got 2 skewers on a plate. A smaller portion of rice that used to be included with the meal is now an extra £4!! So after ordering a couple of side dishes each to make our main course into a meal, all of a sudden your main meal is over £20. Which is expensive for what you get. On top of this, when the bill arrived, they have now introduced a 10% service charge. I understand restaurants may not be making as much money as they used to, but pulling little tricks like this will see your customers disappear due to greed! The restaurant is not as busy as what it used to be, and after eating here last week I now know why.

Been three times recently so thought I’d best review it. Fantastic place, great food and service. Jovial atmosphere. Also, I recently returned from Istanbul and the food I had over there was the same as here - exceptional. Great if you have a larger group and like a bit of atmosphere on a weekend. Portions generous, we took loads home and had the next day. Still tasted superb. Will be going again soon.

Been to Istanbul grill many times, food is always fantastic as is the service however after recent visit I shall not be returning as I don't like there dishonest way of adding a mandatory service charge to the bill, spent close to £300 for 8 people only to have an additional £30 added to the final bill, we always tip the staff anyway especially when in a large party but it shouldn't be a forced tip- the price on the menu is the price you should pay, its like popping to the local shop for a £1 loaf of bread only to be told at the till no its actually £1.20 as the advertised price doesn't include the hidden charge ......not acceptable Istanbul grill it really isn't especially considering the menu changes you've made recently so that things like rice & salad are no longer included with menu items

This is, I think, only the second time we’ve ordered a Deliveroo from here. First time was during the first lockdown. We’ve swapped our usual restaurant night for a restaurant home delivery night during the lockdowns. The number of restaurants delivering to our address is quite limited. With one exception, none are places we used to go to regularly and that includes the Istanbul Grill. In truth, very few of them are places that we’d consider going to when lockdown lifts. But Istanbul Grill is a step above most of those places and I think we’ll want to give it a try in person.We ordered as we would in any East Mediterranean restaurant – intending to put everything on the table at the same time to share, so the two of us could enjoy a mezze. We ate:-Patlican Salatisi – served cold, a “stew” of aubergine, tomato, peppers and onion, cooked so long that it becomes almost a sauce. You’ll find similar dishes all over the Eastern Med, including on the menu of both of Cheadle’s Lebanese restaurants where it’s called makmour. This version is an absolute cracker.Halloumi – sliced and simply friedFalafel – a main course dish of crushed chickpeas and butterbeans, formed into torpedo shapes. Crisp on the outside, with a well flavoured, very slightly spicy interior.Adana kebab – slightly spicy again, the classic kofta kebab from Turkey’s fifth largest city. Probably the tastiest of the kebabs you’re going to find in any Turkish gaff.Both of the main courses came with nice fluffy rice and slightly different salads (we just mixed the two together). There were also assorted dips and sauces but I’ve lost track of what came with which dish. There was houmous, a couple of versions of cacik, tomato sauce and a chilli sauce (it would have happily been hotter). And there was really nice bread – not your bog standard pittas but something more the texture and flavour of Italian focaccia. Good dinner!

We had a rare “date night” and decided to try Istanbul Grill. We was greeted by a gent who was unsure where our booked table was, it was quickly sorted and we was seated. Our waiter was lovely! Didn’t catch his name unfortunately. It was pretty busy especially during covid times. The restaurant was clean and tidy. All staff members wore gloves and masks which was great, the only downside was the menus wasn’t wiped cleaned after each use (my menu was dirty) Drinks was nice but not enough, I had a cocktail and it was served in a small martini glass, lovely looking but hardly any drink for the price paid. Food arrived pretty quickly and was piping hot! There wasn’t much flavour to our dishes, we both ordered a mixed grill. I was expecting some lovely Turkish flavour of rice (Istanbul rice) it was just boiled rice. The Turkish bread was delicious and huge!! Staff were attentive and professional, the food was nice but not what I expected, I will try another dish upon my next visit. Overall the staff were brilliant and stuck to the covid “rules” as much as they could especially working in a hot busy restaurant. I also got the vibe that the staff don’t receive much tips :( as our waiter was very very thankful for the tip we left.

Like everywhere else, Istanbul Grill closed in late March with the lockdown. Unlike a number of other local places, they didn’t immediately keep going by offering takeaways and home delivery. But they started doing delivery a few weeks ago, using Deliveroo as an ordering platform but delivering themselves rather than using Deliveroo drivers. We ordered three starters for the two of us. Bog standard stuffed vine leaves, pleasant enough when some lemon was squeezed over them. Patlican salatsi – the long cooked baked aubergine dish that you find all over the Eastern Mediterranean under different names. We are fortunate in this area that four restaurants in Cheadle offer the dish including the two Lebanese places where you’ll find it called makmour. All four make a good version. And, finally, a couple of grilled slices of halloumi and sucuk sausage. Alongside, some excellent bread – light as a feather but still with a bit of texture. Even better than the Turkish bread I buy from the Venus supermarket in Rusholme. There’s also a little tub of seasoned yoghurt (cacik) and another of a fiery chill sauce, to eat with these and the main course.Adana kebab (named after the city) is a long kofta, lightly spiced and, to my mind, perfectly cooked, so it was still moist. This was a very generous plate of food. The kebab sat on more of the bread, which had soaked up some of its juices. To add to the carbs, there was rice. And a salad and a chilli pepper to nibble on. Much as I tried, there was too much to be able to finish.My partner just fancied a very non-Turkish vegetable pizza. It was generously sized and tasted fine.

Our order for delivery was cancelled without explanation and at the last minute.

I placed an order from this restaurant through Deliveroo. The order was placed and was told it would be here with 30 minutes. After an hour I called and was rudely spoken to by a male called hasham. I then contacted Deliveroo who informed me that they couldn’t contact the restaurant. We was then told for over an hour and a half that the driver was “ just around the corner “. In the mean time the restaurant updated the app stating that it had been delivered. This amounts to fraud they take your order, take your money and lie for over 2 1/2 hours and no food. Do not order ps this restaurant is also known to Deliveroo and they are actively investigating them. It’s very unfortunate in the current climate and I appreciate everyone’s trying to make a living but to lie and not deliver what I’ve paid for is wrong and illegal!!

We went for an early evening meal and had the 2 courses for £14:95 and it was absolutely lovely and very filling. I even brought some home and got extras for my partner. The restaurant is very clean and welcoming and the staff were all so very nice. Will definitely be returning very soon 5*

Very very nice food and very friendly. I went on a Sunday during a half price special offer they did. The place is very clean and Romantic. Looks like it could be a very busy bar on a Saturday night but maybe I'm wrong. Would definitely go again.

What a shame that on getting home after a great family mealI I discovered that a service charge of nearly £30 had been added to the bill but put right at the top so that I left a further £30 and the waiter saw it but didn’t check that I had really intended to give a %20 tip Id specifically checked the bottom of the bill to see if a charge had been added

Took parents for a meal after visiting the restaurant several times before and it being great to only be left embarrassed and not wanting to return. One of the main dishes was incorrect and a group were brought to the table next to us that the waiters were well aware of and admitted they knew of them but there was “nothing they could do” and we were left unable to have a conversation and also left feeling anxious by the groups behaviour we couldn’t wait to eat and leave. As the owner and waiters were all aware we expected something to be done in way of an apology and it wasn’t, this was very disappointing and I won’t be returning. There are so many nice restaurants in Cheadle and I will use them in future so not left with an expensive bill for such a shocking experience

Our book group meets every 6 months or so in a restaurant and this time chose the Istanbul. Some places don't open on a Monday in Cheadle so this was very welcome. It S pretty spacious and there are discreet areas, so we could be spread around, although I understand that it's pretty busy at the weekend. the staff are friendly and attentive and we're happy to give us information. We had an unfortunate misunderstanding of one of the orders but the staff were very apologetic and did their best to rectify the situation as quickly as possible. It was very comfortable and the food came from an extensive menu, so much to choose from! The place is wheelchair accessible, although I didn't get an chance to see what the toilets were like, so can't tell if they were accessible or not. We had a variety of starters, Falafel, stuffed Aubergine, and prawns in filo pastry. Mains consisted of Moussaka, grilled chicken, Falafel, lamb kebabs, all served with a portion of rice and salad. Coffee finished the meal nicely off and it came to £25 each. It's easy to find, right on the corner in the centre and there is a large, free ( in the evening) car park behind Tesco which is opposite.

Even though it was busy, all the waiters made time to speak to us and were really friendly. The mousakka was so tasty, would highly recommend off the veggie menu. Some people in our group said they could have done with some more sauce with their meals.

Excellent restaurant with helpful friendly staff and an open kitchen. I visit here regularly with my Turkish friends who all say the food is better here than in Turkey.

Went here for the first time on a Saturday night with my wife. The restaurant was extremely busy. It caters to all groups of people including families and larger groups. Its quite big inside but has a very nice feel and ambiance to it. Parking can be a bit of a problem. I suggest you park in the free car park behind Tesco which is just across the road from the restaurant.The staff without exception were very friendly, attentive and efficient. The food was delicious. I had the lamb shank although there was so much choice on the menu. The atmosphere was so good. They make a big thing if its your birthday as everybody is encouraged to sing Happy Birthday while the waiters gather around and bring over a small piece of cake with a sparkler on it I think ! Prices are reasonable in my opinion with a typical starter at £8 and main £16.I can thoroughly recommend this restaurant.

Had excellent meal recently with a large group of friends. Some items marked as containing gluten whereas previously had been gluten free. We asked for crudities instead of bread with the hummus but was told not possible, yet it came with salad! One dish was marked as containing gluten but it was in the rice on the side, not as part of the main meal. Would be easy to offer plain rice or chips instead of limiting options unnecessarily.All in all very good food but allergy menu could be more versatile with very little effort

Will definitely visit again. Food was amazing. Menu choice was so good we didn't know what to choose. Staff were very attentive and made us very welcome. Food delivered in a timely manner. Everything was so nice. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and they certainly made the night special even though they didn't know . There were other parties celebrating special birthdays and when they sang "happy birthday" Turkish style it was lovely. Thank you every one of you. We will definitely visit again. Well done.

We were spending the night in Cheadle for a morning flight back to the US and wanted a nice dinner. Istanbul Grill was perfect because it was in a lovely Tudor building but served good Turkish food -- after several weeks in the UK we were a little tired of standard pub fare! The service was excellent and our waiter was charming. If we ever pass that way again we would definitely return.

Total rip off - £12.50 for two iced lattes - that weren’t very good. That’s more expensive than London The hash browns were nice though.

I've live in Stockport and go out in town for drinks, I didn't even know this kind of bar was in Stockport. I've only found out now about this bar and it's shutting. Pity I would have loved to book the hole bar for a party.
