Istanbul Kebab Aberdeen — Restaurant in Aberdeen City

Having eaten in Istanbul and other middle eastern countries, I can say I’ve never had any food like this. It wasn’t good. They didn’t know the word “shawarma” even! Smh. We ordered a chicken wrap and it was basically a salad with a few pieces of chicken inside. Loads of cabbage, some carrots, and CUCUMBER lol!!! The doner was so thin and dry. Even in the USA the middle eastern food is better... and it’s not good there! The chili sauce and garlic sauce weren’t right. How do you get that wrong?? The garlic sauce was mostly mayonnaise as far as we could tell. Didn’t even taste any garlic. Sad. So sad. Also- the guy taking orders seemed impatient and unfriendly. Really the worst attempt at middle Eastern food that we’ve had in Aberdeen and this is the fourth restaurant...

Honestly one of the best Turkish kebab places in Aberdeen, it’s a shame they aren’t always open or available for delivery on deliveroo because it forces us to try another kebab place that is never as good as Istanbul. We are vegetarians and we love their veggie burger and falafel wrap, everything is so crispy and hot and not mushy like some vegetarian options in other kebab places… delivery is always so quick and everything comes piping hot. Sometimes go there after a night out and the staff are always so friendly. 10/10...

Visited this place today. I would give it zero stars if I could. The staff was very rude and we felt they were reluctant to serve us. Despite being empty and being happy for the custom they were very unwelcoming. One of the staff members was so arrogant and rude after we had sat down to eat that we had to leave without eating. If thats how they treat customers, i wonder about the quality of the food too! If you dont want customers, close your shop! WOULD...
