Best Turkish Restaurants in I Drive / Sand Lake

Our server, Savannah, was the ideal that every restaurant should want, and every customer should have. Her knowledge of the food and drink choices were spot on. She was extremely friendly and professional. Our meals were fresh and delicious. We have never dined at an authentic Turkish restaurant, but after eating here we were ready to jump on a plane and go. The seating hostess, the dining room manager and the GM all made the entire experience memorable.

Loved everything. I will definitely come back and recommend to my friends. One of a kind in Orlando.

This was my first time at Bosphorous, and I am already excited to go back! We shared many appetizers and small plates to get to try a bit of everything.

I recently had an amazing dining experience at Istanbul Grill, and I can’t say enough about the quality of both the food and the service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, ensuring that every detail was perfect and that we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with an authentic vibe that made the experience even better. As for the food—simply outstanding. Every dish was bursting with flavor, from the appetizers to the main courses. The kebabs were perfectly cooked, tender, and seasoned just right, while the hummus and pita were fresh and delicious. The quality and attention to detail in each dish were evident, making it clear that the chefs take great pride in their work. I’ve now dined here twice in a row and had exceptional experiences both times. If you’re looking for a spot with fantastic service and food that truly stands out, I highly recommend Istanbul Grill. Can’t wait for my next visit!

Great place! We went on Friday night and i was very surprised with such a great service!! Dima, Platon, Katya were the best! Helped us with our choices, we always around, cleaned up table super fast, we had all utensils on time, extra napkins and were very helpful to explain the concept and gave us recommendations! We tried samosa, khinkali, mixed grilled, octopus, beet salad, medovik cake and napoleon. Everything tasted really good and was served fast! My friends also had mint-melon hookah and said it tasted amazing! We enjoyed Aperole drinks and fruit compote ☺️ Definitely will be back on Saturday night to listen to life music (Dima’s recommendation). Thank you. Great service and food!
