Absolutely phenomenal experience every single time at Istanbul Restaurant in Blackburn – our favourite go-to spot for authentic, mouthwatering Turkish cuisine!
From the moment you walk in, the customer service is nothing short of superb. Every member of staff goes out of their way to ensure you’re comfortable and looked after – warm smiles, prompt service, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home.
Now let’s talk about the food – absolutely delicious! The donner is packed with flavour, tender and perfectly seasoned. The chicken shish is juicy, chargrilled to perfection, and melts in your mouth, while the lamb beyti is a true showstopper – rich, spiced beautifully, and bursting with authentic Turkish taste. Each dish is served fresh, with generous portions and impeccable presentation.
What really made our visit extra special was how accommodating the staff were. My son couldn’t get enough of the cucumbers, and they happily brought out more for him – no fuss, just kindness and attentiveness that truly goes above and beyond.
And to top it all off? A lovely, refreshing mint tea served on the house – the perfect way to end an incredible meal.
