About Istanbul Grill Bolton
Istanbul Grill Bolton is a Turkish restaurant in Bolton at 122 Bradshaw Brow, pairing a grill menu with a cocktail and wine bar. A balcony eating area overlooks trees, so a meal there comes with a view of the greenery outside. The menu includes mixed grill and lamb chops, and a mixed kebab is served for two to share. Many dishes are gluten-free, which gives guests who avoid gluten a range to choose from. The restaurant has recently changed ownership and been refurbished.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the mixed grill, described as fantastic and delicious with good-sized portions, and one reviewer's mixed kebab for two stretched to feed three with leftovers. Lamb chops cooked to order and a pizza with toppings to the edge also draw praise. Reviewers repeatedly mention friendly, kind staff, a lovely atmosphere with low music, and the balcony and view of trees. One reviewer with coeliacs notes plenty of gluten free options and feels safe dining here. Several mention the refurbishment and change of ownership, mostly approvingly. The criticism is sharper but less frequent. One diner found service very slow between starters and mains on a quiet Thursday, with spicy chicken skewers sent back as overcooked and cold, then returned tougher than before, and garlic mushrooms left mostly uneaten for tasting vinegary. A takeaway customer had the wrap missing from an order and was told to just take a refund, with no apology. Others close on a birthday meal where the whole family found the food excellent.

“I can’t recommend this place highly enough. Having coeliacs, there are lots of options that are gluten free and I’ve dined here many times and feel safe. Great value for money. The staff are super friendly. The mixed grill is fantastic.”
- Lee and Josie Moran
“One of our favourite places to eat and it didn't disappoint. Loads of choice and reasonably priced food and drink. The lamb chops were delicious and cooked to my specification perfectly. The pizza was amazing with the toppings right to the edge. The staff were brilliant and the atmosphere in the restaurant was very nice.”
- Nothando Siziba
“Beautiful place to be, went for a romantic dinner and the service was excellent. They kept checking on us and were kind to assist in telling us the best on the menu. Would definitely come back again, highly recommended. The place was very serene and loved the view of trees outside. Thanks to the professionalism of staff.”

“Disappointing experience. They forgot part of my order (the wrap). When I called, the guy told me he didn't have time to bring it and to just get a refund. Zero apology or accountability. Won't be ordering again.”
