This place was so great it went way beyond my expectations. The food was so tasty just like in Istanbul made me feel like I'm in Türkiye! Service was excellent employees are very professional, polite and caring! Atmosphere was an amazing it's very modern well designed combination of tables lighting everything was very pleasant!

    Spent an amazing evening celebrating my partner's birthday at Bosforo and it was everything and…read moremore! Inside is cozy and our server was impeccable throughout the meal. She was my favorite server in SD and went above and beyond. They started off by providing a refreshing palate cleanser drink that was very nice. I also inquired about both the Ayran (Turkish Rice Drink) and the Salgam (fermented turnip juice) and she was kind enough to let me sample them first. She mentioned that both have somewhat of an acquired taste so this preview was really appreciated. The Ayran has more of a cottage cheese-taste to it and the salgam was more savory than citric/fruity. The Eggplant Atom was fantastic! Citric, refreshing, and packed with flavor, I could dip bread into this all night. We also paired this dip with the Girit Ezme which is a turkish cheese that had a pesto-like flavor profile. It too was amazing and I was constantly going back and forth and mixing both flavors together which worked in harmony. You had the more savory and hearty girit ezme balanced by the more bright and refreshing eggplant atom. We also got the Kalamar Dolma which was a stuffed calamari with spices and rice. Another great dish and the calamari was cooked perfectly. The Vegan Lahmacun was super delicious and they tell you to roll it up and eat it like a wrap. And we were even dipping it into the eggplant atom for even more flavor. The last savory dish was the sis kebap. The beef tenderloin was soooo soft and moist that I was shocked how easily I was able to bite into it. Incredibly delicious too! The only miss of the night was the Baklava dessert. It wasn't bad per se, however the filo pastry part wasn't crispy and it seemed like it was left out for a while versus made recently. The ice cream was a bit more creamy of a consistency than normal which I found to be really nice though. Overall it was an absolutely delicious meal and I cannot wait to come back and try more of their dishes!

    Istanbul Doner Kebab - It's been over 16 days & no mold. As I mentioned in my post, I did not finish it because I don't eat beef.

    I've been wanting to give this place a try for quite some time, and I was excited to see that they…read morerecently added some vegan options to the menu so I could finally check it out. I ordered the Falafel Wrap and the Lentil Soup, both vegan even though they are not clearly marked as such on the menu. They were both delicious and very well seasoned, not too much and not too little. We came early on a Friday, right before 5 pm, and there were plenty of tables available. The food arrived very quickly, the service was great, and the place was very clean with a calm atmosphere and soft background music. My soup came with a piece of bread, so I asked the server to confirm whether the bread was also vegan. She was kind enough to bring me the ingredients list so I could check for myself, and yes, it was vegan. I still recommend confirming each time in case the ingredients ever change. My husband, who is not vegan, also really enjoyed his food. I definitely recommend this place to vegans, and I will absolutely be coming back many more times.

    As a renowned kebab connoisseur (ok just a huge kebab fan), I was looking forward to check out this…read moreplace. My friends and I stopped by Monday night to check the restaurant out. It was not a busy night and maybe 4 tables were occupied including our four people table. We placed an order right as we got in at 7pm, including three drinks and four main dishes. Regretfully, it took a whole HOUR to receive our meals AND DRINKS. Why drinks were not brought up to us in between when the order was placed and meals served, is beyond me. And when food arrived, one of the items was wrong. My partner ordered chicken dish but got beef. We flagged this to our server (who was nowhere near to be found) and she seemed indifferent. After waiting for an hour for our food, we decided that we will just accept the what order this beef dish is because it was already 8pm and idea of having food at 9pm did not seem fun. Also it is worth mentioning that we ordered smoothies for our drinks. Server never asked us if there was any dietary restrictions and nowhere on the menu it was noted that fruit smoothies contain milk. Terrible times when you are lactose intolerant. Overall very poor experience.
