Istanbul BBQ Restaurant in East Lindsey

We had to be in Louth, so wanted to have a dinner locally. We decided booking a table at Istanbul, as it had been some time we had been here. We were welcomed friendly and guided to a table. It was fairly busy, all table were occupied. We were handed the menu's and were offered some time to have a look. Not too long after we could order our drinks and as we knew what we wanted to eat we immediately ordered our food. The whole menu looked interesting. But we decided to order 2 sharing platters with salad, vine leaf rolls, olives, etc. and some slices of warm bread. All tested nice. As you can see on the pictures, we ordered a few different dishes for the main. Everything tasted nice, but I personally was not immediately impressed by the taste of the meat/mince rolls. It was mainly spicy, without particular taste, As mentioned it was pleasant and relaxed, with a nice atmosphere.

I first visited about six months ago. I'd tried before but could never get in...you do need to book. Tonight (5th October) fortunately I booked...they were turning people away, always a good sign. Everything was great. My starter was Garlic King Prawns (a portion of 12 for £6, exceptional value) well cooked and delicious. My main was a mixed kebab.. 3 skewers, Chicken, Lamb and Kofte with homemade tomato sauce, a side of onion salad, chips and rice. A real plateful and thoroughly delicious. The meat was properly cooked, tender and we'll seasoned. Exceptional value at £19.50. The dessert really was awesome. I absolutely love Tiramisu, they make their own A large portion I thoroughly enjoyed, only £5.50. The Italian restaurant a couple of doors down charges £6.50 As for the service, really lovely and welcoming people. Not only were they nice to me. I sat near the door...they were helpful and welcoming to everyone. I will definitely be back

Casual meal out with friends. Big choice on the menu. Two of us had one of the stews. Stew was really flavoursome the prawns lacked a little depth. The kebabs looked great. Overall a lovely meal and looking forward to returning

Incredible food time and time again. Takeaway is so good too! Would highly recommend the chicken kebab but every dish on the menu is 10/10. The deal in the week is such a fab idea and the place has so much atmosphere. Love love love the Istanbul!!

More of a Cafe than a restaurant, normally the smell of the meat being cooked on the hot coals is unmissable & unmistakable however l think this was more likely done under the grill (l could be wrong,just my opinion) the mixed kebab was dry, the chicken looked bland (not charcoal crisped as you would expect), the lamb was reasonably tender but over cooked as was the Adana. Rice not authentic, bread not authentic. Sorry 😢

Excellent meal, very tasty food . The whole meal was absolutely delicious and the service was great . Will definitely be returning

Went in on a Tuesday evening, the place was busy so looked inviting. We were initially given a table at the back of restaurant but after asking were moved to the front which is a more inviting space. We both had a main course only which were very good. There was 1 waitress and the owner who were both busy, we weren't offered a dessert but no worries the main course was filling, although we would have had one given the opportunity. I got the impression they were short staffed and were not too welcoming when we first arrived, by the time we left the owner was friendly and quite chatty. I would recommend and would eat there again, suggest you book a table if going and ask for front of the restaurant.

Wonderful food and friendly staff,we have been 3 times in the last 2 weeks so it is highly recommended, perfectly cooked lamb chops and hallouimi cooked on charcoal the salads are also good

First time here and it won’t be the last, great service and really tasty food, definitely recommend.

Food was excellent, and fantastic value for money. Service was also brilliant.. Quality and quantity we're first class and we will certainly be returning on our next visit.

We have been intending to try this restaurant for months now and after our experience tonight we are genuinely sad that we didn’t visit before. The service was warm, efficient and friendly. We both had the garlic prawns as a starter and the warm pide bread - which was amazing , however we regretted having a starter as we couldn’t finish our main course! We both had the lamb Guvec - a clay pot dish with lamb, aubergines and red peppers. It was SUPERB . We opted to have a side salad which was so fresh and well prepared. We bought the rest of our lamb home as we just couldn’t eat it all. This is such a lovely authentic restaurant, all the meat is freshly prepared. Will DEFINITELY return - soon!

Excellent food, excellent service and hospitality. First visit as new to the area. Recommended by shopkeeper, so gave it a try. Will be returning regularly, a lovely find with lovely staff.

Went tonight for family tea. So friendly and accommodating. Helped us choose food for the kids and recommend dishes. Food was so good. Tasty and plenty of it. All delicious. Best food in Louth. The meze and onion salad is divine. My son loved the chicken wings. Highly recommend lovely touches for Xmas with table decs, crackers and choc oranges wrapped as gifts 🥰🥰

Spent a lovely evening with friends in the Restaurant. Great menu/good prices/quality food & service. See you again soon x

I was a bit dubious, but this place was actually quite surprising. Ok the decor looks a little dated, but the food was really nice and thoroughly enjoyed it. You didn't have to wait long between courses. The staff were really friendly and polite. Overall it was a really pleasant evening and would highly recommend it.

Was such a let down when u are expecting Turkish cuisine I d only last week visited one of the best in Sheffield on abbeydale Rd a new one opened which was lovely but to just get a couple of English people serving it was so English to me I don't know how they get away with saying Turkish restaurant food bland they really do need to get some Turkish waiters which might be better than an inexperienced host

Friendly warm welcome. Had meze starter which was awesome followed by lamb cooked in clay pot which was awesome also had mixed kebab which was lovely but felt bit dissapiinted in my choice but my fault not heirs was well cooked and tasty.for dessert had turkish coffee cake with white chocolate on top. Wanted the tiramisu but they had none left shame on that. Wod recommend to anybody to visit when in louth

Thought it was about time I left a review. Third visit in 5 weeks, which speaks for itself. Delicious meal again on Thursday. Last time we visited a couple of weeks ago, our order was wrong but the staff were very apologetic and I'm sure would have replaced food if asked. As it was, I was happy to have what was brought out. Tender, tasty meats, lovely salads, great desserts. Good to see the place busy mid week too.

My husband and I ate here last night for my bday and had the most delicious meal. We had the meze starter to share: a mixture of 7 cold starters including stuffed vine leaves, hummus, aubergine & roasted peppers and a Turkish version of tzatziki . All were beautiful. This came with complimentary homemade bread which was hot out of the oven & so tasty. For mains I had a chicken dish cooked to perfection in a clay pot (the meat melted in my mouth) and my hubby had 2 lamb skewers. He was able to mix and match so had the diced lamb and the minced lamb- these were cooked on the grill so had a gorgeous charcoal taste to them. Both meals came with rice, chips & a sweet onion salad. We ordered a greek salad to go with it too- this had grated feta on top which was really tasty. For the whole meal plus 2 beers & 2 glasses of wine we paid £49! A total bargain as the restaurant offer a free starter or dessert with every main meal (Mon-Weds) so the meze was completely free of charge. Could not fault the place. It was busy for a Monday evening so a nice atmosphere & the waitress who served us was lovely & friendly. We also met the owner/chef too who is from Turkey- hence the incredible food. If we return to Louth, we would most certainly return to this wonderful restaurant.

Got booked in last minute, food was great and reasonably priced. The only let down was the seating, chairs with no back support and very uncomfortable after sitting on them for a while.

Food was nice, which was a shame, for the waitress who was quite rude and took us a while to even finish up and pay as they were away with the fairies. There were obviously some regulars who were very loud and annoying, could hardly hear myself think. Very annoying atmosphere and kinda rude attitude.

Ate here twice during our visit to Louth. Both meals were very tasty and plentiful. The staff and owner were very friendly and welcoming. I would recommend the mussels and the aubergine and lamb clay pot dish. It was all very nice and I would recommend. We did not have dessert as we were too full but they did look very nice.

We went here again this weekend and quite enjoyed the experience. I have to admit that our party were not too enamoured of the menu but most enjoyed the food although my chicken and cheese in a hot pot was not really to my taste. Sorry. The wobbly tiramisu was still delicious!! And the Turkish beer was pretty good. Nice to see Elena again and the restaurant still flourishing!

We came to Louth from Lincoln on mountain bikes today in the wind and rain along some very muddy bridleways. Really pleased to find this place and enjoy some well-earned and extremely tasty supper. Very friendly staff and great service. Loved it. Thanks.

Our 3rd visit to this lovely restaurant. Hand sanitiser on offer as soon as you walk in and theyve got a 1 way system in place for entering and leaving. Makes it feel much better. Meze for 2 to start. Lots of dips to choose from served on lettuce and with a fabulous bread basket of sumptuous bread. There were 3 adults and 2 kiddies and we didn't finish it all.Kiddies shared a kebab, split on 2 plates. Hubby and i opted for the mixed kebabs and mum had the chicken one. We had forgotten how large the portions were and had to take a doggie bag home, which we enjoyed for breakfast the following day. Its the delicious food that keeps us returning here. The best we've had since we lived in Cyprus. Potions are massive so if you're going for starters you may want to share mains. This is going to be a favourite place of ours to visit, its great to take the kids and a relaxed atmosphere

We visited on a Friday eve during a family holiday to the area. All Covid precautions in place (sanitiser on arrival, screens between tables etc).The food was excellent. Extensive menu with all the Turkish usuals and some nice chefs specials. Service was also very good - friendly, prompt, but not rushed.Highly recommend the sea bass! Good vegetarian options as well. A lovely evening was had by all - thank you.

In these uncertain times (2020) with restaurants trying to gain the confidence of customers, the team at Istanbul has pulled ot all the stops to ensure diners feel safe and relaxed. It worked, the place was buzzing, even mid-week.Good service and excellent food is what it's all about – ask for a table by the window and order the meze starters, then move on from there!

Visited here with a few friends, looks very inviting as you enter. Sat down to look at the menu. Decided on 2x mezze @£11 as there were 5 people.Came in no time at all. Unfortunately rather disappointing. Consisted of lettuce leaves with a selection of dips and portion of warm bread . Could have done this at home !Mains came , described in the menu as being cooked in a clay pot, chicken with mozzarella in tomato sauce. It actually came in a very small boat shaped ceramic pot ! Came with chip n rice served on a cold plate , not good ! , at over £14 for this dish , not very good value.Other members of the party had Kebab at £16 again not good value, plus tortillas etc .Think we were expecting something a little more special , not something we could have done ourselves. Sorry but won’t be returning.

We went for valentines night, had a lovely meal service to a high standard, good choice on the menu, had the meze starter which was very good

This was our 2nd visit here as our 1st visit with the kids was so delicious. It was hubby's birthday and we knew that the food wouldn't fail to impress usWe opted for the meze starter. Its is all delicious and plentiful and served beautifully in lettuce leaves.We then order kebabs which came with rice and chips. Be warned the portions are large and we couldnt finish our main meals as had thoroughly enjoyed the starter.On this visit we were seated at the rear of the restaurant, its cramped and the noise is amplified here. There was already a party of around 8 people who were just finishing their meal and another couple seated.Unfortunately for us once the 8 guests left another party of 10 or 11 came and were sat right at the back. They appeared to be regulars as the owner greeted them warmly. They were loud, obnoxious, bumped into our table and chairs every time they passed to order drinks. Shouted over each other and had little care to the other diners around them or the kids with them that were crying, over tired and ignored. The elder gentleman was clearly already half (if not full) cut when he arrived. Slurring his words and stumbling about. I would not recommend sitting in the enclosed rear of the restaurant and certainly would leave if we were offered to sit there in the future. That said the food is amazing and the restaurant, with the right seating is lovely to dine at

The food was lovely, BUT was shocked with the rowdy atmosphere from the table next to us. My birthday was ruined by 'Del Boy' on the next table having a loud argument on his mobile phone between courses talking business. The restaurant staff/owners said nothing, even though all eyes were focused on the mobile phone argument. I found it unacceptable making argumentative calls whilst in a restaurant and not being told to respect the other diners. I turn my phone off, it's totally rude to disrupt paying diners. The situation was out of control and I was scared to say anything. I will not go again, I expect a professional atmosphere in a restaurant, not a loud slagging match over dinner ! The owners should've told the man to conduct his dispute elsewhere, but they didn't. Nobody should feel nervous.

Visited for a birthday celebration with partner and daughter. Atmosphere was good - relatively quiet, but still lively. The food was excellent - we started with the Mix Meze (supposed to be for 2, but more than enough for the 3 of us!), daughter had Tavuk Sis, partner had Sebzeli Tava, and I had Mantar Sote (we are both vegetarian) - all 3 dishes were excellent - really flavourful, good portions and well presented.The service was excellent as well - friendly, helpful and prompt. Prices were good too. Overall we had a fantastic evening, and all returned home fully satisfied! Would highly recommend, and we will be returning soon!

A very good meal on a spring evening in Louth. Nice Meze starter, followed mains. No room for dessert though.

I enjoyed the lamb shank chef’s special and my wife eat the chicken kebab. Both were delicious plus the excellent side salad. The house wine was superb. Lovely staff. Very reasonable prices. Relaxed environment. What more do you want? 🥳👍

We generally have a sharing platter with various barbecued meats and mixed salads. There traditional Turkish bread is lovely. The staff are friendly and attentive.

Came on bank holiday Monday on a rainy cold evening and this place completely made the trip. Warm welcome, absolutely delicious freshly cooked food and great menu. Loved it and totally recommend!

Booked at very short notice and was not disappointed. Irena and her staff looked after us brilliantly. Lots of tasty food with a few extras she thought we would enjoy. So good we went back again today.

Truly authentic Turkish food and incredible service.

We visited in a Monday and contemplated getting take out but was so happy we visited.

We regularly go for our lamb fix. Hubby loves creamy lamb dish. I'm a lamb fillet kebab . Lot of starters I'm no longer allowed my favourite was spinach Tarator and prawns in white wine butter& garlic . Hallumi and spicy sausage for hubby. Our friends tend to request it as well on visits.

The service was awful it wasn’t busy but staff were more interested in entertaining friends than the service, food was not barbecued by any stretch of the imagination, in fact it was very similar to food Iceland my dish up, the salad was limp and dry tomatoes were tired ,, overall a bad experience

I love this little restaurant, from the minute we walk in to the ambience atmosphere, the quality and friendly service and the choice of delicious food is amazing. Every time I come to Louth this place beats all the rest 100%

We have eaten at Istanbul a number of times and it never fails to provide a delicious meal. The kebabs are very tasty and come with both chips and rice, always giving a very generous portion.

I have been to this restaurant twice when working in the area and will definitely visit again when I am next there.

We’ve been here on quite a few occasions and have never had a bad experience. The service is always good and staff are attentive. The food I consider to be excellent, the quality is very good. This is my favourite eatery in Louth and will be returning soon.

This place is like stepping back in time, there's even a chair lift in the middle of the restaurant.

Absolutely beautiful family meal. Staff were amazing and so friendly. As a family of 8 the service was excellent and we were made to feel so welcome. Our 3year old grand-daughter was so happy with her free ice-cream and lollipops!!

Went with family. Prawn in garlic butter to start and sea bass for main which came with cubed fried potatoes and a salad. An onion side was also provided and we ordered a Greek salad to share. Lots of food and very good quality. Others present enjoyed their selections as well. Recommend.

Always enjoy a very warm welcome & excellent food here. Irina and the team serve amazing authentic barbeque food... And plenty of it! We always come away extremely satisfied. And it won't break the bank either!

Our first visit and we'll definitely be back. Such good value.

Ventured here on my own and walked in to a party of people having a great time. A family with children had clearly been treated well, were singing and settling up three bill with a smile. Not a bad sign surely?

Beautiful food with an awful lot to choose from and lovely service, especially by the owner at the end of the meal. Made a big thing out of hubbies birthday. They also do a takeaway service and the food is the same standard always.

Great selection of meals. Good variety not just kebabs and a really nice selection of puddings. Have been before and will go again. Recommended.

One of the best restaurants in Louth. Decent Turkish food At very reasonable prices. The Is Kebab was excellent as was the salad

Neither of us had tried Turkish food before, so this was to be a new experience, and wow, service was good, food, really delicious, we both had different meals, both very tasty and filling.. we shall be going back for more, loved the atmosphere and we had a great time.

We haven’t been here for a year or two but decided to use it again last weekend. It’s very convenient as a stone’s throw from the Wheatsheaf!!

Having had to cancel a trip further afield because of the snow we chose to eat here as it’s very near where we live. It was surprisingly good. The service was excellent and the food beautifully cooked.

At first glance you could miss it. We did, we walked straight past it. Cosy and busy, we were shown to our generously sized table for two. Great menu full of the most exciting sounding food. None of the usual proliferation of cliche "Turkish" platers.

Real passion, flair and authenticity of dishes here, plus great service, a Louth favourite. Ten more words.

Really good service, lovely food and a very authentic atmosphere. Very welcoming, definitely will return.

Had a lovely meal they cooked a selection of foods for us to try. Also was reasonable priced, and friendly staff.

We went here for the 2nd time and once again had a delicious meal in great surroundings - love all the plants which give the place lots of atmosphere..

Lovely food on a busy night with great service. We arrived at 8.30 pm and the restaurant was packed. There was a nice atmosphere to the restaurant. We were soon served drinks and our food order was delivered fairly soon after. The service was really good.

Excellent service and superb food. My wife was apprehensive as she never tried turkish food, she's fussy and love it. Will defo be going again!

Excellent food; quick service; friendly staff - thoroughly enjoyed our anniversary dinner. Parking is roadside and can be tricky on...

Monday nights in Louth seem to be a quiet affair with many local eateries closed for the night. We found...

Busy Saturday night but service was OK although clearly under pressure so the waitress didn't have time to linger and...

We visited on a Monday and were delighted to learn that starters are complimentary! (Watch out though - the mezze starter isn't on the list!). However, we had a great meal and all thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The atmosphere was very friendly and the proprietor suggested we try the strawberry and ginger pudding - she was right - it was delicious! Highly recommend.

This restaurant is extremely friendly, well run and has fantastic food at very affordable prices.

Decided to order a takeaway from Istanbul BBQ restaurant in Louth. My family and I have eaten in the restaurant numerous times over the years and have enjoyed it each time. The takeaway service is just as good. First class food and value for money. Highly recommended.

Pleasant evening in Louth. Food lovely, service very efficient, well worth a visit. Booking is recommended

Having lots of Turkish restaurants in north London we love Turkish food. So we ventured into the Instanbul in Louth! We were not disappointed. We had the Turkish sausage and humus as a starter which were both lovely. We had both the chicken and lamb sis which were both tender. We weren't too sure about getting chips as well as rice, I guess they want to please both camps! The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Was staying in Alvingham with my family and thought we'd give this place a go as never had Turkish meal before. For my husband whoIs a big eater I think he would've benefitted from some side orders to accompany his main meal of mixed kebabs. There was plenty enough for me as I had the same and my son had the chicken wing kebab which he enjoyed. The mixed meze starter for two with bread was very good also. Not the cheapest meal but a very enjoyable atmosphere and experience. Service was very good also!

Visited this place for the first time last Wednesday. The food was fantastic. Mixed Meze starter. I had a liver kebab which was to die for! My husband had the lamb. Service was attentive. I'm lost for words on this one - it was so good.

This place has actually got better since last year. The food has stepped up a little, the lamb chops are perfect. The owner doesn't mind a flexible approach to the menu and understands that not everyone wants huge Louth sized portions. As ever service was friendly and relaxed at each of our three visits. Highly recommended.

Fist time I have eaten here, I've always walked pasted this place and total missed it. The food was stunning, and the service was brilliant. With this being my first time, the waitress/ owner advised on some of their best dishes as they have a great selection on the menu. I went with one her choices and it didn't disappoint, tasted lovely and presented beautifully. Also they have a brilliant deal Monday to Wednesday, free dessert or starter with and main. And of course I chose the dessert, I had a white chocolate, raspberry and Prosecco cheesecake, AMAZING!! Will definitely be returning here

We regularly go for our lamb fix. Hubby loves the lamb chops I'm a lamb fillet kebab . Lot of starters I'm no longer allowed my favourite was spinach Tarator and prawns in white wine butter& garlic . Hallumi and spicy sausage for hubby.

Visited last Wednesday. Very busy. Beautiful food and service by the owner and the new young lady we never seen before. The food was very tasty as usual. Will be back for more soon again.

Just had a meal here me and my husband after looking at reviews on here, we was not disappointed food was absolutely superb. Starter king prawn then husband had mussels complimentary bread which was so flavoured house red Turkish wine easy drinking, mains I opted for the Turkish lamb and hubby had mixed kebab and a mixed salad both dishes were succulent tasty and full of flavour staff were attentive but not over bearing atmosphere was lovely with traditional Turkish music playing in the back ground very busy restaurant we was lucky and rang just before opening and secured a table but I'm sure any later than 6pm you would have to book in advance, you can find parking for free around the corner from restaurant If after 6pm .would highly recommend this restaurant for a fantastic tasting meal

Was pleasantly surprised to find such a well run turkish restaurant in Louth. The service was very friendly and the good was tasty. Worth a visti if you are after something a bit different.

My first experience of Turkish food and it will definitely not be my last. Already looking at places to stay for a short break so I can visit again.We were a party of 11 and the staff were very friendly adding to our enjoyment of the experience. Despite the size of our party our order was handled quickly and efficiently and we were soon enjoying a glass of Efes while we decided what we wanted from the extensive and varied menu. The dishes cooked traditionally in clay pots are well worth a try. The choice of Turkish wines was good and the bottle of Shiraz I picked, Pamukkale, will certainly be on my shopping list when next at the supermarket. I hope they stock it!When our main courses arrived the owner of the restaurant made sure everything was to our satisfaction and then at the end of the meal spent some time talking to us about her restaurant and her ties to Turkish restaurants in our home time with her giving us her business card to give to the owner when we visited.I would certainly recommend anyone to visit the restaurant from couples upwards, you won't be disappointed.

Food was top class as was the atmosphere the service was fast and friendly great choice of food served by two lovely ladies

The sebzeli tava (a sort of vegetable casserole) is absolutely delicious, and I'll probably order it every time I visit.My partner wasn't so impressed with the Mediterranean pilav, which was a bit stodgy and creamy, and the rice was either too soft for his tastes or lost in the sauce. Others in our party were pleased with their meat-based dishes.The mixed meze starter is a great way to test a number of the starters and was presented so attractively I wish I had taken a photo.We were there over the easter weekend and the restaurant was bustling with other diners, giving a very positive atmosphere.

Erena and her staff always extend a wonderful welcome - possibly one of the friendliest restaurants you could wish to eat at. The food is all amazing, freshly prepared, tasty and plenty of it! Just go and try it as soon as you can!

Went with my wife for our 49th Anniversary meal to the Istanbul in Louth. This is not the first time that we have been there and the standard of food and service is just as good as before .

This restaurant is one of the best in Louth.The food is oh so tasty what ever you order.The owner & staff make you feel at home.They are all so friendly & give you an excellent service.Could not fault it.Highly recommend but make sure you book book so not disappointed .

Had been recommended to visit. Food was tasty, portions on the large size, variety of flavours and textures. Staff friendly and attentive

We visited recently as a family party of 9 and really enjoyed the whole experience. The staff were very attentive and made helpful menu recommendations which stopped us over ordering. The food was all freshly prepared and really tasty. The whole meal was very leisurely and we weren't hurried at all. Very highly recommended - if we visit Louth again we'll definitely go back.

We went here after being let down on a booking elsewhere. They fitted us in! The food was excellent, hot, beautifully cooked and on time. There was no sense of being hurried by the staff although the place was heaving, altogether a lovely experience.We shall return another time and try different dishes as there was so much choice we had a hard time making our minds up.

By far best restaurant in Louth , beautiful melt in your mouth fresh food. The service is excellent , can highly recommend the sis kebab and feta for starter. Can't wait to return - thank you xxx

This is a place not to miss if you are visiting Louth and are looking for good food. The service is very good and the choices on the menu quite varied. The recommended wine was also good and they have efes bier which definately is worth trying.The portions are more than enough and most people (no matter how hungry) are not going to be able to finish a standard helping.

If you like Turkish cuisine then don't miss this place. Lots of attention to detail apparent from the decor to the spices in the food. The staff were friendly, service prompt, portions more than ample and the whole experience very favourable. There's a glut of eateries in Louth, some good and some not so good. Istanbul bull is at the top end.They don't have their own parking space but Bridge Street car park is 100 - 150m to the north, free for the first 2 hours.

Visited with wife on a Friday night.Have been a few times over the yearsService really good as Is the quality of the food.Really good choice of Turkish food and always freshly cooked.Wife thinks it's the best restaurant in Louth.She may be right.

We ate here twice in our four day visit. The food was superb with great choice. Definitely recommend this and the popcorn cheese cake.

Have been eating here for many years,this is the cleanest restaurant l have been in, the atmosphere is always convivial, nice staff,Plants and shrubbery well maintained.The food is excellent, well cooked,appetising and presented superbly.A very good menu, lots of choice and good portions.A wonderful restaurant, never fails to excell.

We discovered istanbul many years ago when a friend told us about it, we are now regular visitors and it never dissapoints. If you're in the louth area and want a delicious & filling meal, then look no further

Been here a few times. The food is lovely and the meat is cooked very well! The hospitality is great and they're very welcoming and friendly. They have added a few new dishes which I may try next time. But for this time I stuck to what I know! Lamb kebab with all the accompaniments!

We meet friends here for a catch up. It's good food easy to chat and the staff are great.They also do really great bread

Lovely restaurant with friendly staff and delicious food. This was my first visit to a Turkish restaurant and I wasn't disappointed. The lamb kebab wrap was very tasty and the tiramisu was delicious. It is clear the food is authentic and all very fresh. Very good quality and value for money, I will be back next time I'm visiting Louth!

We have visited the Istanbul during our annual visits to my home town since it opened. Unlike some place they have never allowed the standards to slide. The food is always freshly prepared and tasty, the staff are always cheerful and helpful. Highly recommended.
