The restaurant combines traditional charcoal-grilled dishes with modern presentation, making it an inviting spot for both casual meals and special gatherings. Its lively yet relaxed atmosphere suits family dinners, friendly get-togethers, and even a romantic evening out.
The menu focuses on classic Turkish barbecue dishes prepared over an open flame, giving each plate a distinct smoky flavor. Starters include favorites like hummus, cacik, and stuffed vine leaves, along with hot appetizers such as grilled halloumi and sucuk (spicy Turkish sausage). For mains, the Istanbul BBQ Kitchen menu offers a wide variety of kebabs — from lamb shish and chicken wings to adana kebab seasoned with traditional spices. Mixed grills are a highlight, perfect for sharing and sampling the best of what the kitchen has to offer. Vegetarian options, including falafel and vegetable moussaka, ensure that all guests can enjoy a satisfying meal.
On my visit, I tried the chicken shish kebab with rice and salad. The chicken was tender, juicy, and infused with smoky flavors from the grill, while the rice was fluffy and fragrant. The fresh salad, with its crisp vegetables and light dressing, balanced the richness of the meat beautifully. Around me, other diners enjoyed large mixed grills and lamb kofte platters, both of which looked just as generous and flavorful.
Service is friendly and attentive, with staff eager to explain the menu and recommend dishes to newcomers. Prices are fair, especially considering the portion sizes and quality of ingredients, making it great value for authentic Turkish dining.
For anyone in Nottingham craving a true taste of Turkish barbecue, the Istanbul BBQ Kitchen menu delivers a memorable experience filled with flavor, warmth, and tradition.
