The Turkish food you'll come to love is expertly handcrafted by our experienced chefs and their culinary teams. While many of our staff have Turkish backgrounds, it’s the quality and authenticity of our food that truly define us. At Bosphorous Turkish Cuisine, we prepare each dish daily using only fresh, never frozen, Halal meats. We use the freshest vegetables and the most authentic Mediterranean ingredients, many of which are imported directly from Turkey, in our dips, salads, and sides.

    Fell in love with Bosphorus in Lake Nona on our way to a rocket launch at Kennedy. Been back to that location 3 times - and SO excited to have a location here in Tampa. The lamb shanks were just as incredible as I remember them! INCREDIBLE meal. We will be back.

    Great staff, great food! I have a gluten allergy, and the manager, Brandon, came to our table and went over everything with me. The food was amazing, and I, most importantly, did not get sick. We've been to their locations in Orlando and Winter Park, and the food is consistent. Looking forward to the opening of their St. Petersburg location and Sarasota. Always a great experience!

    Wanted to try this new place as I like Turkish cuisine. The food was ok, flavor wise not as authentic as I have tried before. Restaurant ambience was nice tho and the server very friendly.
