Istanbul Restaurant

Head down Edleston Road and you'll find yourself in a warm, unpretentious dining room where Turkish families sit alongside couples and groups of mates tucking into mezze platters. The kitchen doesn't mess about—you're getting authentic grilled meats, properly charred around the edges, alongside bright salads and breads that taste like they mean something. It's the kind of place where you can spend £15 on a decent kebab or go proper and share, and either way you'll leave satisfied and not skint.
