Bosphorus Mediterranean Cuisine

I absolutely love this place. The owner is very kind and friendly, and seems to care deeply about presenting and sharing excellent Turkish cuisine. The space is nicely decorated, with an outdoor seating area when the weather is nice. I recommend ordering a large spread of both hot and cold appetizers: every item is fresh and well seasoned, and pairs extremely well with the toasted flatbread they are served with.We ordered takeout, and everything was very well packaged and easy to transport home. If you're looking for a nice vegetarian main, the Imam Bayildi was fantastic. It paired very well with an artfully presented Mediterranean salad and a full spread of sides.If you enjoy Middle Eastern food, I can't recommend this place highly enough.

In the area & wanted to try a new place to us. We have been on a Mediterranean kick and found this restaurant. Warm inviting decor & staff. Food was plentiful & flavorful & took some home for the next day. Couldn't decide what to order, so we went with hot appetizer platter, cold eggplant, & then the house special mixed grill! We had no room for dessert, but finished our meal off with Turkish café.

Amazing! The owner of the restaurant greeted us and was very friendly. She just bought the restaurant 6 months ago and she is doing a fantastic job. The food was absolutely incredible. Best lamb chop ever! My husband and I shared the hot appetizer platter and the dinner platter that included multiple types of meat and chicken. The restaurant is cozy with pretty Turkish lamps. Everything was so good. We will definitely be back!

Excellent spot for authentic Turkish food! The new owners and kitchen team are incredibly kind and passionate about their food. The portions are big and nearly everything is homemade. The Turkish coffee warmed up over sand was neat to see! They're located just steps away from Frick Park and Regent Square. Check out their beautiful covered patio!

This place was great. The food was great and reasonably priced. I will say I am not a fan of Turkish coffee but I tried. It just had a lot of fine grounds in it. I loved the stained glass lamps. It was very cozy and peaceful.

Excellent food and service! Located outside of downtown near The Frick. Worth a stop.

What a great place for our wine group to meet. Food, service, hospitality = excellent. The portions are large and tasty. BYOB with small corkage fee makes it even better. Talked to the new owner (a charming young woman). We will definitely items be back.

We ordered take out and the portions are generous, everything was well packed and delicious. We had falafel, chicken kabobs, and grilled veggies. Several dips and rice pudding. We stayed within walking distance and the dinning room looked lovely, if you would prefer that.

I've been in this building a number of times in my life in the heart of Regent Square but never as this Mediterranean restaurant. The service was friendly and attentive. The small Small Mixed Appetizer Platter contained a fantastic mix of Piyaz, tabuli, hummus, baba ganoush, and a thick, creamy yogurt reminiscent of tzatziki. Amazing with the freshly grilled pita. My daughter shared her doner kebab with me, and I shared my falafel platter with her. Both were delicious. Her lamb was so expertly prepared that there was no hint of gamey "lambness" to it at all. The falafel was not dry as it can be. We saved the yogurt from the appetizer to pair with all of it. We could have eaten gallons of it!

This is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants I've ever experienced. The food and service are truly exceptional, and the warm, friendly atmosphere makes it a perfect place to enjoy a great meal. I highly recommend giving it a try.
