We have been wanting to try Bosphorus for some time. Today was the day and very glad we did. What a nice place.
We started with the hummus and pita. Excellent. We each landed on a chicken dish and both were delicious. With “no room at the inn” we had to get the baklava. Wonderful.
And as good as the food was, the service was the best part. Our server Trisha was outstanding and the two other young gentleman were fantastic as well. We felt very welcome.
Great job folks. We will be back soon. Dean

this is one of my favorite restaurants in Indy. The food is so delicious and comforting at the same time. I would just come back again for the owners and wait staff. They are really so welcoming and nice, really make you feel like family.

Price was not worth the food. Don't get me wrong, it tasted fine, and I liked the hummus, however, I ordered the beef kebap and got 4 chunks of spiced chuck roast. For 25 dollars, I expect more than a quarter lb of beef. On top of that, the chuck was not marinaded long enough, or tenderized properly, or cut correctly and the result was an incredibly chewy portion of meat that bordered comical.

It's a shame though, because the flavor was good.

I have been going here for years now and never once have I been disappointed. Orhan Demirtas and his staff are always providing excellent service which is rare these days. Thanks again for making our Valentines dinner special and for the great hospitality that you always have shown me. I forgot to mention the best part which is the amazing food! If you have not tried this place you are truly missing out!

Bosphorus Istanbul Cafe is one of my favorite restaurants in Indianapolis! The food is incredibly flavorful and authentic. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the service is always friendly and attentive. Orhan is the best and truly goes above and beyond to make every guest feel taken care of, which makes the experience even more special. Highly recommend if you’re looking for delicious Turkish cuisine and warm hospitality!

Absolutely loved everything about Bosphorus Istanbul Cafe! The food quality was top-notch, especially the mixed grill platter — so flavorful and satisfying. The baklava was fresh and melt-in-your-mouth good. The portions are generous, and the platters are perfect for sharing. Highly recommend this place if you want amazing Turkish cuisine!

The food was so good it literally moved me to tears. It was well prepared and so well seasoned. There wasn't anything we got that we didn't love the kids loved every single thing as well.

Stopped in to try the Turkish Kahve for the first time, and while I did not order any food, I did really enjoy my time there. The atmosphere was great and the staff was kind enough to tell me more about the coffee which I hadn't tried before. Highly recommend. Looking forward to coming back for food next time.
