Ottoman Turkish Cuisine in Hammersmith and Fulham

The best Turkish Restaurant and takeaway in London. I would highly recommend Ottoman for freshly prepared gorgeous Turkish cuisine and of course not forgetting the hardworking, happy and friendly staff, especially my favourite Hadi 😃

I had phoned a week ahead and booked a table of 6 for a family birthday. On arrival the restaurant was packed and I informed them I had a booking for 6 and on viewing, there was clearly no table reserved for us. After waiting I asked if it was in the reservations book and was abruptly told ‘yes, but we are busy’! The gentleman then ignored me and just kept taking food out to tables. After a further ten minutes of waiting and being ignored, he eventually decided to answer me and pointed to our table and said ‘ you are next there’. This was a small table seating 3 , four maximum and the 3 people sitting there had just started their first course! I reminded him there was 6 of us and we couldn’t fit there. He just said ‘ you can see we are busy’! I politely said what is the point in booking a table for you to give it away! We then went elsewhere, VERY disappointed and fed up. Never again

I have just had one of the most terrible experiences in a restaurant. Having booked advance a week ago. We arrived to complete chaos and some of the rudest staff ever. Having been here food being average, I did question going back. But was for the ease. Won’t be coming back.

Ok, it doesn't look like anything special from the outside but the food is excellent. We ordered soup and mixed grill type food and were very happy with the taste and quantity of food given. Service was very friendly, helpful and polite and the food arrived in good time. I like the sliding glass door to keep the dining area and cooking area separate. No complaints at all and I would definitely recommend. Hope to make a trip back soon. The prices are very reasonable.

Fabulous Turkish restaurant . Really friendly staff and delicious kebabs . The food is very tasty and they do a great lunch time deal . The puddings are also very good too . I really like the food and the friendly service .

The Chicken Shish Kebab was delicious with great customer service. Would recommend this to anyone.👍👍

Apesar da escada ser bem estreita, o pedido um pouco demorado tendo em vista o fluxo de clientes, mas sem dúvida uma excelente opção comida árabe

Amazing place for lunch. Great portion sizes great food, veggie and vegan options too! A firm favourite with my friends

Came for a lunch meal with colleagues. It was delicious. We loved the new look of the food layout. I tried a different starter, the Helim Borek and it was great! The staff are always so friendly and offer a personal touch to the service. Still our favourite place after many years

Lamb Shiah tender and amazing! Had a mixed grill aswell all delicious. All dips and bread taste authentic and fresh.will definitely be back

All dishes is amazing I will come back whit more pleasure. Very original Turkish cuisine. Lamb is fabulous

Excellent meal and great service. This was a favourite joint of mine as a student when I was lucky enough to visit London and it’s still great as ever ten years on. The shish kebabs are cooked over hot coals and the salads are incredibly fresh and tasty. This is worth making the trip out to Hammersmith for!!!

Stunning lamb and amazing hummus with great service to make you feel right at home xxx highly reccomendxx baclava is to die for.

I visited this place with my friend last week and today 20/10 22. We love their food well cooked and their customers service is excellent and friendly staff. They should keep their cook because he is give us a very good food with a very excellent taste.

We have been coming to Ottomans for 10 years and it never fails to deliver. Best Turkish food with great staff. A hidden gem.

This restaurant is fantastic. The cuisine was ridiculously fantastic. We were graced with five star service from Ahmed. The dishes we ordered were so beautifully presented by Chef Hakei. I recommend that all in the Fulham area visit and enjoy this delightful restaurant.

I visited with my husband and son for lunch. We had delicious authentic food, and excellent service. Will definitely come back again soon 😊

Great food and portions! Great service been a regular for years and they are consistent with the taste !!

I ordered a wrap and previously well sized food was disappointing, hardly any meat, salad only with sprinkles of meat. The new staff at location are very abrupt and rude, overall a horrible experience. Wont be going back.

I have been using this restaurant/takeaway for years but last night had a really poor chicken shish kebab. The chicken used to be thick and succulent with a generous portion of salad in the wrap. This chicken contained little cubs of chicken, dry, overcooked and...

I ordered through deliveroo it never arrived ,I called to the restaurant and the answer was it’s not my problem,I will never order again and don’t recommend anyone doing it

got 2 mixed wraps lastnight normally very good but was disappointed as not enough meat mostly salad when ive got before was pleased with content of meat

Visit with my friends it was brilliant food l will visit again and l will recommend to everyone thanks very much guys…

One of those rare restaurants where you feel at home. You're made very welcome, they don't try to rush you out and are so accommodating. If you want something extra on the plate, no problem, want to change your meal, no problem. Nothing is a...

We had our monthly team lunch in this restaurant. It's a small place but very cosy. The booking was very easy in advance, I just had to call them up. On arrival they seated us straight away. The service was great, the food excellent. I...

ケバブの持ち帰りもできるが店内で利用。ケバブを頼んだところ付け合わせの野菜もたっぷりで美味しかった。女性一人だとかなり量が多いので、持ち帰りたい旨を伝えると快く包んでくれた。

Big open windows in the summer adds to the mediteranian feel to this resteraunt, but visit this establishment mainly through more winter period. Good menu with a varied choice of Turkish food. Friendly and attentive staff who will explain patiently the menu. The take away...

The food here is really delicious and portion is quite big. Waiters and waitress here is friendly and courteous. Will definitely come in to dine again whenever I visit

I have visited this place 5-6 times and I have always been impressed. The service is friendly, the prices reasonable and the food absolutely quality. The portions are impressive and the food is consistently good. I'd recommend the hot mezze and chicken beyti.

Lovely meal, relaxed, friendly and tasty. We had the meze hot and cold with soup. Well worth the visit. Turkish tea was very refreshing.

Mycket god meze och shawarman föll min man i smaken. Trevlig personal som månade om oss. En stort plus för den luftkonditionerade delen man satt i då det var mycket varmt.

Smooth running machine with knowledgeable grill chef, great menu and food full of flavour on the lamb and chicken sheesh we tried. Highly recommended.

After a long day of sight seeing, we wearily walked into the Ottoman Restaurant without reservations. The restaurant was already buzzing, but after a very short wait, we were seated at a comfortable table. Our waiter immediately greeted us, explained the menu thoroughly and made...

Got the kofte , chicken shish and lamb shish . It was tasteless and soaked in oil. Lamb shish was chewy .

Abbiamo cenato per due sere su otto trascorse a Londra. Posto molto piccolo quindi sarebbe meglio prenotare. Funziona anche come take-away ma lo spazio ristorante è separato quindi è tranquillo e senza odori della cucina. Molto pulito, con personale gentilissimo e cibo molto molto buono a prezzi interessanti.

Place: simple , small and large tables, clean restrooms. Service: Good Food: generous portion, tasty food . Recommendation: Mix grill, mezza. They also offer donar sandwich to go.

We went there at lunch time and was fairly busy. We had lunch time meal. Was a good sized portion. Food taste was average. However leftovers weren’t allowed to be packed.

Amazing food and lovely staff. We had mezze and baclava and it was very good. Would definitely recommend!

No estaba seguro de qué esperar, pero me sorprendió muy gratamente. La comida se cocina en una parrilla abierta / área de cocina y hay una sección para llevar. Sin embargo, detrás de una puerta corrediza de vidrio (que mantiene los olores y el ruido, ¡un arreglo muy inteligente!) Hay un restaurante bijou para aproximadamente 20 (?) Personas. El servicio fue rápido y amigable, y la comida tan sabrosa como la tradicional comida turca que he comido en el Reino Unido (incluido Wood Green). La porción era tan grande que tuve que llevar a casa una "bolsa para perros" (y nadie se sorprendió). Los precios eran muy razonables. En general, fue una experiencia muy agradable que espero repetir cuando vuelva a estar en el área.

Decidimos darle una oportunidad a este lugar para la cena del domingo. Me encanta la cocina turca después de visitar Turquía. Queríamos tener algo pequeño, así que compartimos una parrillada mixta con Patlican Kizartma y una copa de vino cada una. La porción fue generosa, porque fue suficiente para los dos. Muy sabroso y fresco. Estoy deseando que llegue mi próxima visita y probar desiertos.

If you’re after an authentic and perfectly cooked kebab, Ottoman is the place. Terrific tucker, and also that you can enjoy whether as takeaway, sit down, or the classic end of the night (although for that I can recommend the meat and chips. You’re welcome!)

We ordered one beyti kepap and one yogurt Adana and they brought 2 yoghurt adana kebap. When I asked them about Beyti Kepap they were even worse with the answer. He said this is how we do our Beyti in our restaurant and it's different from any other restaurant. I am Turkish and clearly know what the Beyti is and this place is not worth value. DO NOT GO!!! He was just lying.. Either they don't have the chef or he made a mistake!!!

Succulent well cooked meats, with healthy (!) salad portions, fresh as fresh can be and really delicious ! Highly recommended

No complaints! We had a birthday meal for a large group of people.The food was excellent -brilliant selection of grilled meats which were authentically Turkish tasting all served with fresh & generous portions of rice, bread and salad. The waiting staff were also very helpful and went out of their way to accomodate us making for a fantastic afternoon for all. I could not fault this restaurant. Fantastic food & service! Highly highly recommended!!

Went there with my sister and expecting a lot after all the positive reviews and being a frequent visitor to Turkish restaurants. We ordered halloumi, sucuk and patlican (aubergine dip). The patlican is a bit pricey for £5 with not a whole lot on the plate. The sucuk was supposed to be hot of the grill but arrived cold and the bread we received was stale. Not a good start. For a main I wanted mixed lamb (kofte, lamb chop) instead of mixed grill so ideally no chicken and was told 'can't do'. Whatever happened to customer is king since I'm paying for it.......My sister had mixed grill and the shish was soft. I was forced to have kofte as I didn't want chicken so I had to choose a main. The so called kofte was supposed to be spicy which it wasn't. Certainly won't be going out of the way to return here again as there are much better Turkish around.

Popped in here for dinner not expecting much as the outside decor doesn't do the restaurant justice; we were very happily surprised. The food was brilliant quality for the price; a real authentic Turkish dinner. Would recommend the mezze and mixed grill. Will definitely be returning.

Had a takeaway mixed grill last night, was fantastic the meat was cooked to perfection, great mix of salad. Authentic experience where you can watch the food being cooked.

I continue to make a point, of eating here when I go to Chelsea FC ;-) The food is always very nice, the quality of Kebabs is astounding, and not expensive =D

I am lucky enough to leave very close to Ottoman's and I love going there. The food is delicious and reasonably priced and the staff are so lovely.

Very good fresh food with good value for money! Really enjoyed our family dinner here. Also does takeaways

Local kebab shop which has great quality meat. Always so busy due to the nature of the staff and the food. Can be a bit expensive for students so they have great student deals in place too.

I love Ottomans. Reasonably priced. Huge portions, good service. Been here a good few times now with different people each time. Never been disappointed neither has anyone I've ever been there with.

С друзьями-турками,живущими по соседству,зашли в этот приятный ресторан выпить турецкого кофе с закусками.Отличные овощные врапы,вкусные недорогие салаты и настоящие турецкие сладости.Неплохое место для ланча

I was gratefully introduced to Ottoman some years ago by my daughter and it has never failed to deliver. The Ottoman remains authentic true to its roots and success. Although the same decor it’s like coming home , comfy and a little worn - it’s a cafe which adds to the character. As always the staff are engaging and happy to recommend- be adventurous and just ask them to surprise you , then you won’t over order. Great value for high quality, well cooked delights which tantalise and awaken your taste buds. Succulant charcoal meats, perfect hallomi all accompanied by a fresh salad. Homemade hummus with warmed,slight hint of the hot coals, flatbreads, charred onion skins with a flavour packed dressing - check out your ability to identify the ingredients, It’s so good here we even chose Arnavut Cigeri - lambs liver perfect. Difficult for wheelchair access but it is possible although toilets downstairs. For some unknown reason I’m unable to rate below but maximum scores for each service, food and value

Every Fulham home game I make the trip from Lane End Buckinghamshire to Craven Cottage, but never without stopping at the Ottoman for one of their amazing lamb kebabs. Generally I will have a take a way, unless I’m with friends , then we will...

Visited a few times and have never disappointed

Una joya escondida. Delicioso kebab lleno de sabor y personal amable, este es un lugar que visitaremos de nuevo. Recuerde llevar efectivo si estás comer / beber por menos de £12

A wide variety of tasty Turkish style food and wine is on offer. Portions are large and the service is amiable and second to none. Prices are reasonable. Comfortable seating and clean loos. It’s obviously a well patronised neighbourhood restaurant and rightly so. I wouldn’t hesitate to eat here again.

It's the meat that people come for.Charcoal grilled with smoky flavours that tantalise the taste buds.Lamb and chicken are amazing.Service is hit and miss but definitely recommend a meal here.

Excelente opción en el menú. Comida casera en el frente de la casa, el personal es amable y servicial, es una maravillosa experiencia de comer en este establecimiento.

We travelled from Chelmsford Essex all the way to Hammersmith for this fantastic restaurant, my boyfriend has been in the past but this was my first time. By far the best Turkish cuisine I have ever tried

Turkish Take away, portions were very generous and well looked after, good taste, will visit again for sure and try other varieties of grilled meat as it looks and smells good

my husband and i have eaten here twice now mainly because its open late for after theatre etc and on both occasions weve been really pleased. the food is good and plentiful the the staff are very friendly and happy to explain the menu and it is really good value . last friday we both had a starter and main course a bottle of wine and one of fizzy water and my husband had ice cream all for £58 i suspect that even if the chicken was undercooked i might just ask them to cook it for a bit longer

I have never received such a friendly welcome!

Visited many times before but tonight will have to be the last time after being served raw chicken! Not good!! Please don’t do this to anyone else Ottoman!

Visited here loads of times, food is absolutely amazing and service is spot on. Never had a bad meal here, perfect to eat in or take out

A beautiful traditional grill...kebabs were very flavoursome and the pilaf beautifully cooked. Service was perfect...such a pleasant change from the usual greasy kebabs available in the UK. We felt like we were back in Istanbul

We were staying on the Fulham Palace Road and saw the good reviews for this place - the slightly scruffy appearance from the outside really doesn't do it justice. It's a little bit cramped inside, but the food is really excellent - our shish kebabs were cooked to perfection. The staff work hard and are really friendly. The value was excellent too. If I lived near this place, I'd be in every couple of weeks. Brilliant.

I come here with my girlfriend at least once a week, the kebab is 5 stars and also the lamb kofta is spot on . I really like the environment and I suggest this restaurant to anyone who likes the Turkish grill .

Ottoman Turkish Cuisine is just a few steps away from Charing Cross Hospital, in the Fulam Palace road, right in the busy Hammersmith area. It is not the cheapest area you can find to have a meal so it was a surprise to find this restaurant, although it is quite deceptive from outside (it looks like a kebab shop with a small dinning room with space for no more than about 20 people). A Turkish friend took us there and we trusted her judgement.The food is fresh and delicious. The portions are huge, even the starters. They have a very complete menu with a range of hot and cold mezzes, grills and desserts at a most than reasonable price. Specially filling are the Mix dishes, with a range of different meats to try. All the main meals come with rice and salad and the dishes are very filling. The Turkish tea that they serve is also very tasty. A little hidden gem in the Hammersmith area that I will visit very often!

väldigt god mat och stora portioner. mycket bra service med trevlig och vänlig personal. Stort plus för miljön och atmosfären i restaurangen

This restaurant was recommended to us by a local resident. The meat and fish are grilled over hot coals. I have never tasted such fresh ingredients as their salads in a restaurant. I was told by the waiter that they use fresh salad and vegetables daily. The quality of the food is very good and the portions are large. In fact I have had to bring home some of the meat as it was too much to eat. The staff are friendly. It is very good value. Now we know about it, it is such a treat to go there and we like to have a place we can go to when friends and family visit which is so good. Their take aways are excellent. Always a good sign when the local Turkish community eats there too.

It wasn't the first time i'm eating there, i live close by, so i get either takeaway or eat in very often.... and i always loved it. tonight there was no chicken donner, lamb donner.... barely any on my plate and cold, the service was terrible, they couldn't even serve cocktails , the waitress told me that the bartender is off ....

Delicious food, wonderful service, tasty menu for my first experience with Turkish food. We knew Greek food and expected similar tastes, but this was our first taste of Turkish. We'd go back again. We had starters and one of the combo platters, and were stuffed.

Excellent restaurant. We always visit it when we go to London.It's a small paradise of taste. Do not hesitate to try something new and go there with your friends.Friendly personnel.

Good service terrible food.We ordered lentil soup which was very watery and lamb chop.Meat was 5 out of 10 rice was terrible.And stuff wine leaves was very bad also.This place should not call them self ottoman because they are a normal kebab shop with seating.I love English consumers.They smile and say thank you to all food:) it's good for the business.They don't know how to cook except putting few meat on the grill.My next door neighbour does that also when he have a BBQ.

Back in the day this area was dominated by Best Mangal as place to get the charcoaled kebabs and wraps. Now Ottoman has taken over as the best Turkish cuisine in the West London area. The staff are friendly and pleasant: the menu is so rich and varied, often help is required in choosing....a good bet is the wrap, which, if with salad is 100% nutritious and filling. Has a dining section. Hammersmith is lucky to have this gem.

A genuinely nice option for food. The high quality and good service hasn't dropped over the years either

If you want the best kebab in the uk then this is the place to go. Ottomans is a restaurant as well as a take away kebab house. It's always busy but the wait is short and the service is always very friendly. When we go to London to visit family, ottomans is always on this list of food to eat whilst we're there. I'm not joking when I tell you that we make excuses to visit just to get a kebab. So if you're going to south west London make sure you check this place out. You won't regret it. Enjoy

Fantastic food, service and experience!The staff is very attentive, the restaurant is spotless, the food is outstanding with quality ingredients!

Absolutely loved visiting Ottoman on Saturday night, it's both a take away and a restaurant. The restaurant is pretty small packed out and tables are all quite close together (something I do think needs a bit more consideration. Luckily we were 3 at a table that could - or should - have fit 5. If we had had 2 more people, they wouldn't have got in as the chairs were so close to the table/people behind). ANYWAY - onto the good stuff, great vibe and atmosphere and the staff are so lovely, chatty (but not too chatty) and couldn't do enough to help. Even down to the fact I was only drinking tap water and as soon as it was close to empty, it was topped straight up. The portion sizes are generous and the food is fantastic, simple meat dishes, but cooked to absolute perfection. I had the mixed shish and the people I were with had the chicken donner and one of the spicy lamb kebabs, everything was gorgeous. I really wanted to take something away as well, but that would have been piggy! Super delicious!We also shared some freshly baked baklava for dessert, I'm not usual a fan of this, but it was delicious - particularly the pistachio one!

I was there a few days ago with some friends. We were 8 persons plus 4 kids and they tried to accommodate us as good as possible. The service was brilliant. We liked the food generally but our desert was fantastic

This place is amazing is so good we visited two nights on the trot. The portions are large and delicious and cooked fresh. The service is wonderful too. Very friendly staff three of us ate for £35.00 including drinks. It was very busy and lively but no-one was neglected and the staff coped admirably.I don't live locally I was here visiting my son but when I return this is the place I shall eat in.

Lunch here was really delicious. A good choice and a really competitively set price 3 course lunch menu - but I couldn't manage dessert as portions generous. Restaurant was busy ( a good sign) and also take away. Excellent service too, for son who has nut and mushroom allergy. Couldn't have been more considerate and accommodating.Would also add that the toilets were spotlessly clean!

Me and my family visited here for my twin brother and sister's birthday dinner and from start to end the staff were polite and friendly and the food was amazing as it always it, they even brought up 2 slices of chocolate fudge cake with candles and hats to wear while singing happy birthday for my brother and sister. I will always recommend to anyone looking for a great meal and staff to match to come here it's one of my favourite places

Being here twice already. Food is delicious and a lot. Bread serves unlimited. The lamp is a little hard and chewy.

This place has high quality kebabs that are freshly made in front of you. There’s nothing better for whetting the appetite than watching an army of cooks kneading dough for the bread and flipping meats on the grill – unless it’s the mouth-watering aromas. This place is hard to beat for truly authentic, vivid flavours in a no-nonsense setting making the queues worth it at times. It's a little steep in price compared to local kebab houses but it is worth it.

Friendly staff. Delicious authentic food. The portions are large and the accompanied salads are fresh. Would recommend the lunch menu which is super reasonable.

Visited twice, eaten in and take away. Food was excellent on both occasions and was great value. Helpful and friendly staff with excellent service.

We've eaten here many times and the food is always delicious and the service friendly and efficient. Look forward to future visits.

Yummy food for take away or dining in. We love the kabobs. And the rice pudding with fresh mint tea to end the meal. A great place to have in the neighborhood!

We had three course meal at the afternoon.The starter were delicious: especially the vine leaves fillled with rice the spices. The main we had lamb and the chicken shwarma wich both were very good the well sized. I dont remember the dessert but it was fine, no extremely sweet as the middle east desserts are know for witch was good. This three course is welk priced abd well sized. And the baklava are purely heaven or sweat dessert(better then the dessert on the three course menu deal)

Have been to this kebab shop and restaurant many times and always very satisfied with the food whether it's to eat in or takeaway,also it's a very clean environment so for me it's the best kebab shop in town.

This place is challenged only by Best Mangal for taste, range and value for money. The wraps are fantastic. A lot of men shouting though - but it appears that is the norm for Kebab shops. Well worth a visit and a treat for those who live in Hammersmith & Fulham.

This is without doubt the most amazing Turkish restaurant/take away. Every visit delivers great customer service and food

Just back from a nearly two weeks holidays in Turkey and having a hard time coping with the English weather we decided to have a Turkish lunch to ease a bit our come back to the real world. We tried Ottoman's take away before but never sat there to have a proper meal and that was a real miss! We really enjoyed our food, Chicken Döner for the kids, Chicken Shish Kebab and Lamb Shish for the grown ups. Tasty and fresh it really brought us back to where we were a few days ago! To perfect the experience the even play Turkish pop!!!! Service was really nice and friendly (another Turkish trait we missed) and the bill quite reasonable (46£ for 4 with drinks). Highly recommend!

We were four. We tryed the turkish tea and a sharer as a starter. My main included chicken and lamb. The meat tasted amazing! Everyone was very happy with the dishes. The coffe and deserts were also very nice. The best part is that everythiing was £17 each.

Delicious Turkish food in the heart of Hammersmith. Good service for the multicultural environment of London. The Turkish delights at the end are the must!

A visitor for the last few years and I am regularly rewarded with delightful food dishes from Turkey - bildercin, tuna steak, imam bayaldi, white bait, kalamari, shish, the list goes on ... And I have not done the whole menu yet! The mains ade all well accompanied by rice and salads, so are proper meal in themselves. Gadaffi is a wonderful pud, as is the vermicelli. Lively, prompt service as well.Super place.

This place is pretty small (with a heavy focus on takeaway), but it sure packs a punch in terms of food quantity and service. Brilliant. Efes Beer ,Humus starter, and Koftas .. perfect combo! Very casual, and bit cafe like, but while worth a small detour.
