Everytime I go there I do enjoy the food better than other Turkish restaurants in the nearby cities. Great service, if it weren't for the lack of smiles from the waitresses, only one was smiling though. It would have felt more hospitable.

This was my first time in a place like this. So I asked the waitress to try a mixture of tapas from their country. Got to admit they were lovely. Most had a sweet honey sirup or coconut, or almond taste. Tell them if you have allergies and they have other savouries with curry and rasons in good value. Waitress very kind even though she did not speak English Well we managed and I thanked her in her language Turkish using Google as a gesture to her she was very happy I tried to say Thank you and repeated it so I pronounced properly. If you want to try something new, then this is the place to go.

Our first visit and we weren’t disappointed! We had the mixed grill for two and both of us had plenty to eat…portion size was spot on. Our seats allowed us to see the food being cooked…not many places are that brave! The meat was cooked to perfection, very tender and tasty, with the salad, rice, bread and sauces just adding the finished touches. We will definitely visit again next time we are in Chester.

Positives: Polite and respectful Chefs. Okay/ average food. Negatives: Quantity of food Quality of dishes compared to other restaurants Expensive compared to service and food provided Worst customer service Microaggression Bad experience due to above overall I am a food enthusiast and do reviews after checking out any place over time. Recently I have been to Elif, Etci, Istanbul Manchester, OTE, Kazan and I mean so many good places that I can not even name now. But the service over there has been cordial and fairly consistent. Here the service is also consistent but not good. Been there more than once before posting this. Wallahi chester charcoal grill, chester tandoori and even the GG savor in the same street gives better service with less resources. Pars Kahve in the city centre also gives amazing service and experience. People spend money to have good experience and if good overall service is provided then a lot of the shortcomings are overlooked, be it the total cost or too some extent the quality. If not it becomes a waste of a time. Note to restaurant: Providing more details after being replied to. I hope this is not what you regularly provide for your customers but I myself will not come for further visits hopefully. Kindly don’t harass with further questions and need for explanations. Wasted enough time and money already. Best wishes.

This was a delivery We have eaten in and had food delivered from Instabul BBQ which we have commented positively about. Tonight however our food was not great. Really small portions, and our main dish which cost £19.50 had no salad and didn't look atall appetising. Disappointing meal which we would have sent back if we'd have been at the restaurant

Absolutely awful service! We have been coming to Istanbul bbq every time we visit Chester & food is always good! This visit waitress got our order wrong, she thought we ordered only 1 main course instead of the 3 that we did, found it bizarre that she thought 2 adults & 1 child whose almost a teenager would order only one main course but we are all human & mistakes can happen so when after waiting few minutes thinking 2 other main courses would appear, there was alas no sign so we signalled waitress over & asked where our 2 main courses were. She proceeded to serve the next table food & drinks then I realised she was chatting with her fellow waitresses without giving us any explanation to where our food was!!! Once we managed to get her attention to ask what was happening, she said that we had only ordered 1 main! But she now had told chef that 2 more main courses were required. At this point I was furious, not because she’d made initial order mistake but her absolute lack of care/consideration for us as we were sat waiting at her mercy! We waited another 20 minutes for said main courses to arrive & were given a very insincere apology! As there was no manager Mr Ali I will not be going back to this restaurant again! It’s all well & good to serve tasty food but what’s the point when your staff are hopeless & give the worst customer service. We paid in full with no offer of a deduction even tho one of us ate solo whilst other 2 ate almost 30 minutes later! Utterly shambolic!!!

I walked through the door on a Thursday evening and was greeted by a lady, I said can I have a table for one please? Only to be laughed at in my face. When I asked what was so funny she tried to divert the obvious rudeness but at this point I had already made up my mind to turn around and go elsewhere. obviously my custom wasn't important to them as I would of been taking up a table that could seat more. I travel up and down the country week in and week out with work staying away eating at restaurants solely. This is the first time ever I've experienced such rudeness at a restaurant by front of house staff.

Saw this place on Tripadvisor - the reviews were good and it was only 3 minutes from our hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. Some people might say that it was a little expensive BUT that is when compared to a kebab takeaway. I had Iskender and my wife had lamb skewer (see photos) - both delicious and worth what we paid for them.

I can’t speak highly enough of this place. The food is exceptional. The staff, chefs and owners were excellent, and constantly engaging with us and all the other diners, which makes a huge difference. We took our little girl (4) and they made such an effort to talk with her, which again as parents made us feel very welcome. It’s honestly one of Chester’s hidden gems. They are on Deliveroo (which is where we have ordered from before), but the food was even more incredible in the restaurant. We will be coming back again and again.

I am absolutely discussed..I have always liked the food from IB however tonight I ordered a delivery and my main course did not arrive, I thought I would call IB and resolve by asking for the main to be sent. Unfortunately despite my calm manner they did not think this was their problem telling me I needed to complain via deliveroo then he actually hung up on me. In the past I have often promoted IB to friends, however my opinion has now changed .

We have visited this premises twice now hoping that the customer service would improve but it hasn't. There are 2 female waitresses employed here that don't know how to treat customers, starting with the fact that they never smile and are very abrupt towards you. Every time we visit they rush you eating your food and even try and serve the main course whilst you are eating your starter!! To be honest the food is satisfactory but not value you for money. If I order a bottle of wine in a restaurant I expect the staff to pour it and not slam the glasses on the table, saying nothing and just walk off!! We won't be visiting here again.

We read the reviews and decided to give this a try. We were in Chester for one night and did try to phone and book online the previous day, but we couldn’t seem to do this. It was a Thursday evening and we were staying at the Mill Hotel, only a couple of minutes walk away, so we decided to chance our luck without booking. This turned out to not be a problem, as there were tables available. We were glad that we tried this Turkish style restaurant, as the food was excellent. My husband and I shared a yogurt and cucumber dip to start and I had a main of lamb chops, whilst he opted for the mixed grill. Both were plentiful, tasty and accompanied with rice and salad. The atmosphere is relaxed and informal and service was excellent. We would visit again.

I can't understand why review are so high. Food is not the best: rice too salty, too less of side salad, yogurt sauce too liquidity.

Guau, quería una pizza y me dio uno (bien hecho) tanto lleno dos con carne y hecho en una escala muy poco tiempo. Caliente y lleno de carne y queso y carne, precioso. Yo vivo en Whitchurch, pero me voy a montar mi BMX todo el camino hasta el Centro Comercial Pase cada vez para la pizza encantadora, especialmente los de carne. También tiene un buen precio. Pizza vegetal, está bien, mejor ir para nada con la carne. Gracias Grellworx.
