Istanbul Bbq Kitchen - Charnwood

I found myself on my work break in Barrow Upon Soar on a Monday evening and decided to try out this restaurant. I was pleased to see that the menu had affordable options for lunch or a quick snack, unlike other places I have been to. The staff were very friendly and I ordered the small chicken Shish for £6.50. I have had a lot of Turkish food before and it can be difficult to get right, but this restaurant nailed it. The dish came in a takeaway container filled with buttery rice, perfectly cooked chicken, red cabbage, and salad. It also came with a fresh pitta and two small pots of mild chili sauce and mint yogurt. I am very picky when it comes to food, especially takeaways, but I couldn't find any faults in this meal. It tasted delicious and was exactly what I was hoping for. After finishing my meal, I felt compelled to write this review as the restaurant deserves recognition during these uncertain times for the industry. I give it 5 stars and will definitely be returning.

Lovely food as always. Visited with my daughter yesterday. Staff lovely but the meat/ rice/ chips are superb. A little gem in barrow.

We thoroughly enjoy the food from this restaurant and often get takeout from here, despite the 24-mile round trip. It's hands down the best Turkish kebab I've ever had, just like being in Turkey. Even the plain rice is delicious.

My Turkish Friend invited me and my friends for a lovely meal. Staff were brilliant, food was great. we left our Turkish friend to order the food as he had the best experience of home cooking as he called it, the mixed platter was awesome. Our Jamaican friend ordered the chicken wrap (Classic) which he enjoyed. Chips were spot on.

Visited again with my friend. The food was very tasty. Staff were very friendly. Had lamb and chicken to die for. Need to update web page as prices differ still worth every penny. Corkage fee of £3 per person as you can take in your own wine.
