Bosphorous Turkish Cuisine

The atmosphere is great and the food is excellent! Raymond provided terrific service with his skill and great personality. Highly recommend Bosphorus!

This is the real deal! Tastes like it came straight from a kitchen in Istanbul.We were all pleased with the generous portions, the spices, the quality and freshness of the food. The appetizer sampler is a must if you have a group and want to try it all. If you only get one, the muhammara (orange one) is the very best! Our server was so sweet and attentive. We really enjoyed having her help us throughout the meal. The restaurant is located at the old BurgerFi location and I hope they're here to stay, because it's now one of my favorite restaurants in the area.

First...let me say...we love Bosphorous. We have visited many of the other locations in Otlando. We are SO excited about their presence in Tampa. We decided to come tonight for our anniversary This location is beautiful inside and out. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the cooler weather. We started off with a Efes beer and a Turkish Orange soda. Both were great! I am a huge lover of dip...especially Turkish dips. Haha. We had the Cold Appetizer and Lavas bread. The bread is wildly yummy and every one of the dips were different and delicious. I especially loved the muhamarra. We shared the Iskender Kebap, which was delicious and tender. We usually get the Mixed Grill and the Select Two appetizer...BUT I wanted ALL THE DIP OPTIONS. so we shared an entree. We finished out meal with the Pineapple Turkish Delight. This was dangerously good...I'm glad I don't live too close. Haha. The service we had from Ryamond was unmatched. He was was friendly and also helpful. He also made some great suggestions. We also had the chance to speak with one of the managers about Tanpa resturants and our love of Turkish food...well all food really. See you soon, Bosphorous!

This place is so yummy! Everyone working was super kind and knowledgeable. The inside is completely transformed from the prior restaurant, making the space stunning. The dips were delicious however the lavas to dip in it is not included with the $8-$9 dip requiring you to pay an additional $6 for the Lavas...the vegetarian options are limited. When the server took us through the menu he quickly said one section was for vegetarian options only to read closer and see that 2/4 of the entrees contained meat. I opted for the falafel which was delicious and a side of rice pilaf. I was really excited for dessert how ever the service was really slow and I wasn't up for the wait.

I've dined at Bosphorous restaurants many times in Orlando and was thrilled when i saw their SoHo location. Beautifully lit restaurant, love every bit of detail that went into making this place shine. Bosphorous took over the Burgerfi location on Howard, plenty of parking available in the garage. Our server was very sweet. For food: we tried the lavash with mixed dips. That was phenomenal, as good as i remembered. Knafeh with pistachio gelato was to die for. I tried the gin drink which was too sweet for my liking. Our server mentioned the sugar was on the rim of the glass so i asked to omit that but found a clump of sugar on the bottom of my martini glass. I also didn't care for the zucchini patties. They were too oily and under seasoned. Overall, i am glad Bosphorous finally made it to Tampa. Aside from my drink and app issue, i had a great time.

Few years ago, I went to Bosphrous in Winter Patl and loved it, so I jumped on the opportunity to introduce my friends to this one. It didn't disappoint from impeccable service to amazing food. We started with the appetizer combo that had everything in it. Muhammara, hummus, eggplant, and more with the bread piping hot.Then we opted for the dinner combo for two and a salad, the meat was so flavorful, chicken, need, ground chicken, ground beef, rice, veggies...unbelievable.Turkish coffee and Kunefe for dessert.you have to check this place out. Worth every penny and every calorie. Our young server was so polite, informative and great. Best dinner I have had in a while

I'm not familiar with the Orlando location so this was my first time visiting a Bosphorpus.There were 7 people in my group and fortunately they were able to accommodate us. Since we had a large group, we tried almost every dish. The consensus of the group was that the food is okay. Nothing really stood out except for the bread which was tasty and fun, but almost every dish lacked flavor...it was kind of mind blowing for Turkish food. I loved the Turkish tea...it was delicious and the wine list was really good. The staff was super nice.I still prefer Bayshore Mediterranean Grill for Turkish cuisine, but Bosphorous is a little more swanky if you want a nicer dinner environment.

Our server, Dante, provided incredible service and recommendations while we were celebrating at Bosphorous. I really enjoyed the flavors and textures of our meal and that includes an interesting cheese dessert. I would definitely bring friends back here. Delicious food and beautiful atmosphere.

Whhhhhhhaaaaaattttt?!?!? Inwas hust driving around south howard and like a moth to flame it pulled me in! Once I saw there was a Bosphorous here I couldn't even believe my eyes!I have frequented their Dr. Philips location in Orlando and I always would mention how nice it would be for them to expand to Tampa... dreams do come true!The space is magical, the lamps and lights with the layout is so inviting and definitely has a Turkish theme.Everyone was so kind and you could tell they have a lot of pride for their food and the culture.The food was mouth-watering and I couldn't eat as much as I wanted ... it all looked so tasty and enticing. I will most definitely be back!

Amazing staff. Aaron was great. Food was great! Well come back for sure. Love the music and the ambiance
