First time having Turkish food. Loved it…read more Kazan is a welcoming little restaurant with a delicious selection. Seriously, everything on the menu looks so good. The complimentary bread went so well with the baba ganoush, and the chicken in the Tavuk Izgara was probably the most tender chicken I've ever had in my life. Excellent service, and nice ambiance, but the food is a bit pricier than what I'm used to (to be expected in London).

Stumbled on this place while looking for lunch after a long flight from the US and loved it…read more The meal started off with an interesting focaccia-pita hybrid fresh from the oven along with the most flavorful olives I've ever had. We ordered the hummus to go with it, which had heavy notes of pine nut. Mix that all together - heavenly The Golden Horn is an amazing cocktail. At it's base is a typical tropical rum drink but then it's topped with black pepper for a Turkish flare The feta salad was packed with fresh veggies soaking in an amazing vinaigrette. It was the perfect size to split for 2 people Finally, for the entree I had the Adana chicken Kofta. It was subtly seasoned and grilled to retain its tenderness. The rice seemed like it would be boring white rice, but even that tasted great with it's own distinct flavor

It was the first time in my life I was charged extra for bread, and despite that, the portion was so small it wasn't enough for anyone. It's an expensive restaurant, yet the portions are too tiny and the flavors are strange. Honestly, I feel like my money was wasted. It felt like a rip-off. I wouldn't recommend it.

I started with warm hummus with pastrami and Anatolia sausage. I love hummus and this was quite good and the meat was a nice touch. What really stood out, though, was a mixed kabob combo. Three large kabobs, two primarily chicken, one lamb. The chicken was tender and tasty, the lamb perfect. Finished with fresh peppermint tea, something I really miss from the mid-East. Not cheap but it is Leicester Square, worth it.

Unlike other Middle Eastern shawarma joints, where sandwiches are the go-to, Bosphorus serves up their meat and veggies simply in an aluminium box with a pita on the side, which is certainly less convenient for on-the-go eating, but nice perhaps if you wanted something lower carb. Unfortunately, I just wasn't a fan of the food. The shawarma meat itself was fine but unremarkable. The salad was rather plain, and the overall meal was a bit of a letdown, especially for a price above what other places would normally charge for a much tastier pita sandwich concoction. Overall not a fan. Also, they only take cash.

While in London, my wife and I came across this nice little Turkish restaurant. We were in the mood…read morefor something different and were greeted warmly by the staff and I assume the owner. We ordered a starter that was a melted mozzarella with a nice savory dipping sauce. Next we ordered a very refreshing salad that had cucumbers, peppers, tomatoes, and a nice dressing. Then we finished our meal with a meat kabob dish which had probably some of the best tasting meats I've ever experienced. The chicken, lamb, and beef were so amazingly savory and perfectly seasoned and cooked. I have to say during our week in London, this was by far the best meal we had and we went to a few very nice and expensive restaurants including a Michelin star rated one. Definitely a place I highly recommend and will revisit the next time we go to London.
