Topkapi Takeaway in Manchester - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Very nice food, a good atmosphere, staff were friendly and pleasant, definitely eat here again.

Absolutely amazing staff, amazing food & a lovely atmosphere! Keep up the good work guys, will be back soon! Compliments to the chief!

Excellent value and tasty food at lunchtime. The staff are always really friendly and we are regulars.

Great evening of food. Lots of small dishes to sample the cuisine and all of it was exceptional. Very helpful and friendly staff on hand to help throughout.

The food here is sensational, varied and tasty. The waiting staff are friendly and attentive. Easy 5 stars.

Thank you for serving the Turkish taste, but the salad served in portions looks stale and bad, as if it was prepared a week ago and kept waiting. I ask you to pay a little attention to the presentation so that I can bring my friend with more pride. Thanks.

We had a lovely meal. The service was amazing and the portions were massive. The chilli sauce spiced up our meal and the wine was good value. Thank you 🙏

to believe in the "evil eye amulet" protecting you (from harm, etc) is shirk because you are associating partners with allah. i kindly want to request the owner reconsidering the use of this symbol in the logo and anywhere else (it felt necessary to mention since this is presumably owned by muslims, and shirk is a sin that throws a person out of the pale of islam)

Enjoyed the food and the staff were nice. It was quiet as went in the afternoon. The lunch time deal was very good value.

1st of all the wine was not nice and tasted cheap. Most of the dishes were served with the same kind of undressed salad. Everything was just bland and simple not worth the asking price. Really disappointing. Portions were small as well.

Worst food I have had in this country for years, standard of food was very poor.

I have been coming here for decades and the food, service and atmosphere have always been great. After my last visit the only thing I have to say is that the mixed mezi for two was not upto its usual standards. You usually get at least 3/4 dips vine leaves and meatballs which were all missing this time and with just one dip of hummus didn’t justify the price of £17.95. The mains were spot on as usual.

Great food, ideal location and friendly staff.

Beautiful food and family service. I always come here - love it all! See you soon again :-)

Good ambience and seating area. Decent food, but a bit expensive.

Courteous service. Very tasty delicious food with lots of choices. Great choices of drinks too.

Lunch time offer was value for money with good sized portions

Nothing special TBH, just your typical Turkish food, there are much better places in Manchester for Turkish food. You're paying more for the location. Service was a bit sketchy but it was a busy Saturday night to be fair and the food was served very quickly.

The only good thing here is the location of the restaurant, everything else is very bad, it has nothing to do with Turkish cuisine, do not go there.

The food was nice but the only annoying things Wittrss will keep coming to and ask you to finish food its just like they want you to eat quickly and go that's uncomfortable

We ate here as a family almost 2 years ago, and only now do I feel like I have emotionally recovered and feel able to share it. Where do I start? The below picture, is what I received. Important I add at this point that it’s not what I ordered. I ordered a chicken sizzler, in a Turkish restaurant. Apparently this is a sizzler. I checked with the chicken on the plate and it told me it had already swam 4 lengths on its way out to me. I could have back a dodgy dish, it can happen. I think I naively then expected as a customer to be able to raise this (politely) may I add to the staff, who surely would put things right. I didn’t realise that although this restaurant is called Topkapi, I actually was being served by all the ex Karen’s diner staff. They could not shut me down quick enough. I suppose it gets like that though when someone challenges you on your soup dish, sorry sizzler. A bit of a mad experience. I’m not saying don’t eat here, if you like misleading menus or wanna play dish roulette, I’m backing you give this a 5 stars all the way and tell your tik tok about it.

Busy place with average food. Nothing special. Luck of spice for my taste.

We had prebooked a table for 6 and got a nice booth. The food was great and very reasonably priced. All in all a great experience.

We were a large booking of 15 people but the service was still really quick and good. Food was all brought out together and everyone in the party was saying how good the food was. Will definitely be back. Thanks.

Overpriced. Not actual Turkish food. Unfriendly waiter (black shirt).

Incredible dinner.. food was fantastic... love this place..

Ordered spicy peri peri wings and got crispy wings no peri peri

Superb place Was a regular haunt for me when I lived in Manchester 20 odd years ago...still great to this day

Food was ok but lacking some flavour compared to other Turkish restaurants I have eaten at

I would like to express my deep appreciation for the exceptional hospitality and kindness shown by the staff at Topaki including Elif, Sevilay, Durmuz, and Recep. Their warm welcome and attentive service made our visit truly memorable. Their dedication to ensuring a fantastic experience was evident in every interaction. I highly recommend this restaurant for their outstanding customer service. Thank you to the entire team for making us feel so valued and well taken care of!

Turkish people are well-known with their hospitality attitude but this fact doesn’t apply to employees of this restaurant. At some point I really thought the waitress was going to beat us. Customer service must be done with smiley face and polite manner. Make sure your employees know how to serve. Definitely not going there again and not recommending to anyone. If you want to eat halal food or Turkish food, you can try other restaurants in Manchester.

The food was delicious and full of flavour. Friendly and efficient service. Good value for central Manchester.

Lunch set menu was 3 pounds more expensive than usual as it was December.

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮We ate at this restaurant today and I can say that it was the worst meal I have ever had and it was very expensive🤮🤮🤮🤮

Great service Amazing food Attentive waiters and waitresses Served quick and with quality Kebabs are beautiful Fully recommend

Horrible experience, made a booking and turned up to the place , they said sorry no table for you , it’s not our fault it’s a problem with the system!!!! Who’s fault is it then !

Food experience was great, amazing service

Great tasting food and good portions.

This place been going years and still is one of the best restaurants in town Staff are lovely Food is 👌excellent Never been disappointed once after all the years we have been going

The food was delicious, we ordered the mix grill for two which was enough for three people and we still managed to get the rest of it packed. I would highly recommend this place if you are visiting Manchester and want a nice cuisine to eat at.

We were here on a wet Wednesday night at 6.30pm .just us 3 and another couple , the chef having a snack at the pass , the mini meze, meatballs and borek starters came quickly, tasty and hot!! We followed with sea bass, swordfish and chicken mains. All were really tasty fresh and presented immaculately. Brought back memories of our times in Turkey. The restaurant is immaculate. The waiting staff were really friendly to us and judging by the banter between them , enjoyed working together. No fear of recommending this place

Average Turkish food, decent food quality for quite an extortion of money though! Small portion, poor customer service, loud and crowded restaurant. My friend and I arrived I in early and no one offered even water or the drinks card until 20 minutes where I had to ask! We were celebrating another friend’s birthday, and the service wasn’t ideal. It was all rushed, with fake smiles, no one checked on our table to see how we enjoyed the food. We felt like we were bothering the waiters, not felt welcomed at all. Will definitely not come back and won’t recommend this place either unfortunately.

Service was excellent as was the food and all reasonably priced

Turk mutfağıyla alakası olmayan saçma sapan bir yer ve o kadar kötü yemekleri var ki 4 kişi gittik hepimizin yemeği birbirinden igrenc güzel olan tek şey yoğurttu galiba oda hazır olduğu için.bence Türk yemeklerinin iceriklerini bilin tekrardan menü yapın.musakka yaw Allah aşkına içinde mantar kabak havuç kaşar zeytin ne işi var abi fantazi aramayin yani sosu 2 gün migdemi ağrıttı.gidecek arkadaşlar hayallerinizin suya dusmemesi için bir kez daha düşünün.hepsi hazır ürün.adana iskender anlamayalim diye birde soslu veriyorlar.

Clean elegant nice food good service

such delicious food , hospitality & service

Good service , nice food and fairly priced.

1st visit, great service and lovely food.

Great food with reasonable prices

After a little shopping in Manchester, we decided to have a late lunch on a Friday afternoon. After walking around and looking at different restaurants, we came across the Topkapi Palace. A lunch menu that is served from 11:30 till 4pm consisting of a starter and main course for £13.95 per person seemed a very good choice. On entering the restaurant, there were a few people dining. We were met by a very nice, friendly waitress who gave us the option to sit wherever we wanted to. After we had settled at our table, we were given the drinks and food menus. We ordered a bottle of Cal Y Canto Tempranillo Merlot, Syrah (£19.95) to complement our starters of Cerkez Tavgu and Mitre Kofte. For our mains, we both opted for the Vegeterian Mussaka. All starters are served with Pita Bread. Mitre Kofte was four large, very tasty meetballs in a homemade sauce. The Cerkez Tavugu,which is shredded chicken blended with creamy mayo, was the star of the starters. We both would have this starter again. Our Mussakas came with rice and a side salad and was absolutely delicious. Apart from being delicious food, we both were impressed with the portion sizes, so much so we had no room left for a dessert. When the waitress brought the bill, it was accompanied by two hot towels and two lemon sweets. There are two bathrooms that are located downstairs, so for people with mobility issues, it might be a little awkward. On a positive note, both bathrooms were very clean and tidy. Great service, great food, and in our opinion, it is well worth a visit.

We have 2 Turkish restaurants near me so inevitably I was comparing the food to what I'm accustomed to. Food was average. They have a lunch and dinner menu with some good options.

Brilliant Turkish restaurant. Fantastic food and staff

It was the worst kebab I've ever eaten. My advice is that chefs should go to kebab restaurants in London and learn how to cook meat. Because kebab was not kebab but something else. If you are selling portions for 20-25, you need to do your job well. Lastly, don't be so stingy, you are present it badly Turkish Restorant

Arrived at 22.50 told they were closing, 23.30 on there website, very poor, we will try again.

Good restaurant based on Turkish 🥘 food

Had a great experience yesterday, went for dinner at the place. The food was good and tasty with great presentation. The atmosphere was not very good maybe because of no Air conditioning or fans although the weather was very hot. Overall good experience.

Servis çok güzel yüzlü ve iyiydi ancak bugüne kadar yediğim en kötü Adana Kebabı yedim diyebilirim.

The chicken was very delicious and fresh which i recommend, the staff was very kind and friendly. Kabab i didn’t feel it’s fresh and it can be better. Wish all the best for restaurant .

Very good and friendly service, but the food doesn’t measure up. Turkish food is my favourite and I have eaten at many Turkish restaurants. I would rate this restaurant amongst the worst. We had the mixed kebab for 2. The dinner was over cooked, dry and reheated. The lamb chops were thin and tasteless. The chicken was bland , and the kofte unpleasant at best. Avoid. What a disappointment

The food tastes very bad we couldn’t even eat it. It feels like it was rotten and the meat smells very bad in the doner dish. The service was extremely bad, we weren’t welcomed at first, and after being friendly with them, they gave us a table but the waiters were very impatient and was giving us attitude. We ordered cheese burak and it was very disappointing tbh, it was a “SAMBOSA” not burak and tasted super oily. Very disappointed restaurant tbh, not recommended at alll

I visited this restaurant last week prior to going to the theatre. It is on the main road and is an authentic Turkish restaurant with very helpful and welcoming staff. Food was fantastic, will be visiting again when next in Manchester.

First time visiting here , with a date. Nice and easy to get to located on Deansgate. Staff were friendly and accommodating, service was quick. Food was amazing would definitely come again.

Great Turkish food, and the desserts are excellent as well. Considering the good lunch time deal it's a great option when visiting the Deansgate area.

Great Turkic restaurant. Lady running it fantastic - served us even though she was shattered and desperate to close. Thank you.

Either prices on board are massively out of date or they scam late night dwellers

I had a very bad experience hospitality with waiter “Derya” but the food was nice and delicious

We called in for lunch the food was excellent we had mixed sharing platter to start and a lamb sizzler for mains,it was delicious with baklava to share for sweet service was spot on we'd definitely come again. Cheers Duncan and Helen

Amazing service and amazing food!

Walked in for a late dinner to be greeted by the staff who were so kind and polite. Got the stuffed vine leaves starter and the mixed grill with rice plus the Turkish drink Ayran. Excellent service with a smile throughout, staff always checking up and bringing anything you needed. Prompt service with the starters and main, wonderful and authentic food with really good value for money when you consider the quality and the location. If you’re craving Turkish food in Manchester you can’t go wrong here, the food AND the staff are both top notch. Highly recommended.

It’s the best kebab in Manchester, no competitors. They don’t cut corners anywhere - salad is fresh, meat is juicy, it all just adds up to a good experience. Highly recommend - you don’t have to be stumbling out of 42s to go here.

Staff / service were pleasant, food was disappointing. Way too much cheese in moussaka. We both had the moussaka and agreed that the chef must have grabbed the mozzarella instead of the bechamel

no taste in the humous. Chicken was tough. Service was OK they didn't go overboard.

Best ever great prices and people

I was in Manchester for a gig and we popped in for dinner on the basis I love Turkish food! We were looked after from the second we stepped in. Service was fantastic and the food was delicious (we had the set menu) and the portion size were perfect. I would recommend this lovely restaurant to anyone in the area.

Exceptional service. Very quick. Had cold meze and mixed meat meze and chicken sizzler. Generous portions for mains. Not as spicy for a PakistanI like me but still good taste

Quite location, just hidden down a side street. I came across it by chance. Prices were high but it's standard for a location in the middle of town. I ordered a chicken burger and it was ready in 3mins freshly made and the owner threw in chips for free.

Excellent service and first rate food, will go again!.

Nice food, mildly spiced, reasonable prices.

Great food, excellent service at good value.

I enjoyed my Fries with Lamb cutlets ❤️

Great restaurant, food absolutely delicious and plenty of it.

The food is not bad, the service is very good, thank you for the service Sevy. xx

Lovely place to eat , the starter menu is very good, the mains were lacking the Turkish feel, but tye good was nice overall

İngiltere yediğim en saçma yemek diyebilirim. Kesinlikle gitmeyin. Türk damak tadına göre değil. Paranız ve zamanınız boşuna gitmiş olur.

Just ok, smallish donor kebab as a main for £17, no pita served with it. Left hungry. Food was v.nice just small portions.

Out with colleagues/friends. Everything was excellent! Highly recommend.

The soup and the adana were both a disaster! The soup tasted like it was a week old and the meat tasted like rubber. It had no spices in it and it tasted like the most cheapest and last meat from the butcher. Hopefully it takes nog long to shut down this place. Its a shame for the Turkish culture.

The place is good and delicious and Halal food

Tasty and reasonably priced late night chicken kebab

Nice food in Central Manchester. We had lunch

Enjoyed the family-friendly atmosphere with great service. The food was very nice and i will visit again. The cost of the food is very reasonable. Thank you.

Enjoyable meal in a really great atmosphere, service good, & reasonably priced, would visit again

Authentic Turkish food, fresh produce cooked well. Good sized portions and plenty of variety in the menu. Staff very pleasant and would recommend the Lebanese wine.

Friendly service, nice atmosphere, good food at a good price. Donner tasted authentic.

Excellent food quality and service. I live in London but work for Manchester city council. And will visit again.

Quiet, but it was Monday afternoon! Food very good. Could be a little hotter though. The service was great. Friendly and warm staff.

Fantastic meal last night, good service, top quality food in a relaxed environment. Will definitely be back for more!

Both myself and partner got horrendous food poisoning from here.

Very poor value for money.mince kebab meal --kebab,rice,salad meal just under £19; asked for the rice to be substituted with nan bread and get a pita bread out of a packet.service is good but food disappointing.

Fantastic food, good atmosphere. Definitely value for money if you get the mixed grill!
