In my opinion, the best Turkish food in London and also so reasonably priced. My family and I have made a habit of travelling all the way from North West London (and changing a minimum of two trains) 3 or 4 times a year just to enjoy the lovely meals at Istanbul Iskembecisi. Their Iskembe (tripe soup) is the finest - and do believe us, we originate from Bulgaria so we are a sort of connoisseurs! I would recommend it to anybody keen to try what Balkan food is like.

Went to this place afew nights ago after many drinks.

I ordered the mixed grill and Friends ordered vegetarian foods. The hommus here is excellent. My mixed grill, all the meats were very tasty, not dry at all. Quite flavoursome. one meat was abit chewy. but overall very pleased with it none the less. Certainly worth paying twice the price then a normal kebab shop, for something twice as nice. Would go here again, when drunk and hungry.

Thursday, April 09, 2009 - Based in the Turkish district of Stoke Newington, Istanbul Iskembecisi offers genuine Turkish fayre and if however you’re looking for Doner Kebab or Chips in Pitta, this is not the right place for you…The a la carte menu is extensive, including mezes, grilled meats and an impressive selection of vegetarian mains. I’m coming back here to try this menu out. Please don’t take this review as an ode to tripe, it’s not, we’re talking about a seriously good Turkish restaurant here. A wholehearted recommendation.
