Istanbul Meze Bar and Grill

I first "discovered" this restaurant when I moved to a building just opposite - and what a find! Delicious food at great prices! The humous is great, the kebabs are good, soup lovely: this is hearty, consistent, simple Turkish food that will not fail to fill you up. For a while there was a carousel of lovely Czech waitresses ready to serve you, since one has gone back (and I've moved away) I've not been back as often, but make a point of going whenever I'm in the area.

As there is an open grill, this is perfect to go to during winter-time; weekdays are best as they're less busy. Definitely recommended, you'll keep going back.

The kebab was excellent cooked on real coal, reasonable prices. A good choise when you are seeking for good food rather than a lively atmosphere.

This is one my favourite restaurants that me and my boyfriend stumbled across about 8 years ago and are regular diners here. The food is fabulous - especially the chicken kebab. We have had previous problems with the staff understanding our order, but it has not deterred us from continuing going there. It's small and quaint and romantic with the low lighting. They sometimes have problems with the heating, so either sit right next to the open kitchen or a radiator!!
