Istanbu Lgrill - Stockport

Book a table in the restaurant before the holiday. very pleasant and tasty meal. they would visit again if in the opposite.

We were in somester for the tattoo tea party, had not made a reservation - but we were sitting pretty soon. the place blossomed with a good atmosphere and eating was delicious good portions. the personal was friendly, but baki our waiter made the visit unforgettable after a conversation with my 87-year-old mother. it is only recently widowed, he made it a beautiful rose from a paper napkins - it made our evening special for them. Many thanks to all in istanbul grill. a night to remember.

I hadn't visited the Istanbull Grill for a while but I visited on Friday night for a family celebration. The new layout looks good and I didn't notice any draught from the doors which had been a minor issue before. All 4 of us enjoyed our meals and in fact it exceeded our expectations. The sea bass was especially good as was the sucuk which we had as one of the starters. I would recommend sharing starters if there are a few of you. The service was attentive without being intrusive. I will visit again.

Having always wanted to try this place, Ii went for a mid week treat with my mum and sister last night. Why oh why have I not been here sooner. Lovely decor, fantastic staff and amazing food. The staff were were brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. Everyone was friendly and professional. We had the mixed grill between two of us and mum had the swordfish steak. The food was seasoned wonderfully and the meat was cooked perfectly. Cocktails and drinks were lovely and fresh too. We even managed to bring some of the mixed grill home with us too. We will certainly be back and will bring the rest of the family with us too.

Its such a shame to be writing this as we have visited this restaurant many times over the years…. However, we will not be returning. Although the food was lovely, our issue comes with their menu changes and the service charge they bang onto the bill. A year ago you received your main meal with a side of salad and rice or bread. The prices and portion sizes were reasonable. However, after visiting last week for a mid week meal, we discovered that your main meal now comes with nothing else. Nothing. I ordered a mixed kebab and I got 2 skewers on a plate. A smaller portion of rice that used to be included with the meal is now an extra £4!! So after ordering a couple of side dishes each to make our main course into a meal, all of a sudden your main meal is over £20. Which is expensive for what you get. On top of this, when the bill arrived, they have now introduced a 10% service charge. I understand restaurants may not be making as much money as they used to, but pulling little tricks like this will see your customers disappear due to greed! The restaurant is not as busy as what it used to be, and after eating here last week I now know why.
