Halal Reviews for Istanblue Brooklyn

The restaurant is located in the Midwood section of Brooklyn. They prepare Turkish cuisine. They have a nice variety of appetizers, entrees, desserts and beverages. I ordered the ezme appetizer which was mildly spicy. The chicken gyro and salmon shish kebob were tasty. The islander kebob was in a platter with layers of lamb and yogurt on the side. The pita breads were excellent. The food was well-prepared and portions were generous. Friendly and helpful staff.

The experience at Istanbul Kebab House (Ave J) was a letdown from start to finish! The toilet is an absolute travesty—tiny beyond belief, forcing you to squeeze through the door sideways like a contortionist. It screams of sheer indifference to customer comfort, as if they begrudgingly slapped it together just to meet some legal requirement, checking off a box with the bare minimum effort. Inside, it’s a dreary, uninspired mess—cheap, tacky finishes and furniture that look like they were scavenged from a clearance sale. The shawarma? A measly 3 out of 5—bland and forgettable. For real flavor, nothing beats the legendary shawarma from Genatsvale in Brighton Beach; this place doesn’t even come close! Save your time and appetite for somewhere that actually cares.

Food was really great. I felt a bit authenticity of Istanbul. Price was really good and I love the food actually. Enough room for people to seat in there. And I like the way they decorated their meats, just like on a street or in a restuarant at Istanbul. Service was good too. I like the way they made it and it was quick other than the dishes takes longer time to cook. If you live around in Brooklyn, you must try it.

The staff were very positive and smiling and giving above and beyond to make u feel welcomed. I had takeout but they seated me and gave me chai to drink . Absolutely recommend

Today I was with my husband and child, everything was incredibly tasty, the meat just melted in my mouth, I’m generally silent about the baklava, very tender. The service staff is very helpful, we will definitely come back💯
