About Istanbul Restaurant Huddersfield
Istanbul Restaurant Huddersfield is a restaurant on John William Street in Huddersfield, set a short walk from the town centre and run as a halal kitchen. The menu draws on Turkish tradition, with mixed platters that bring lamb, fresh bread and side dishes to the table for sharing. Meals close on a round of complimentary Turkish tea, and the kitchen also prepares food for takeaway, including cheesecake that travels well for those who want a taste at home. The dining room takes walk-ins throughout the week, and larger tables are set aside to accommodate groups booking in for a sit-down meal together.

“This is an amazing place to have a birthday party or a graduation party. The service was great and I would definitely recommend!!”

“Came as a group of 4 without a reservation and were welcomed by lovely staff. The décor is lovely and clean and the tables are nice and big which was good as we had 2 sharing platters. The food was amazing, you get so much and it tasted great! When we'd finished we packed up the leftovers to go and got a cheesecake to take home too. You get a complimentary Turkish Tea at the end which is a nice touch. We've been a few times and whether it's just been 2 of us or a bigger group we've always had great service and would always recommend.”

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the mixed platter, shared among groups or ordered as a mixed kebab for one, with lamb cooked beautifully and portions big enough that some take leftovers home. Close behind are the complimentary starters of warm bread and dips, with one reviewer calling the hummus the best they have tasted, and the Turkish tea served at the end of the meal. Others name the Kiymali Pide, the lamb kofte, and lamb liver with couscous. Desserts draw repeated praise, especially the cheesecake, including a San Sebastián version, and the künefe with ice cream, and one reviewer says the desserts taste freshly made. Mocktails, including a passion fruit one, also earn mentions. Reviewers describe friendly, attentive staff and a welcome for walk-in groups, and several recommend it for birthdays and graduation celebrations. Takeout is described as just as good. One family notes that the kitchen replaced the wings on their mixed platter with another option because their children do not eat them.
