Quick info
About Kabul and Istanbul Restaurant
Kabul and Istanbul Restaurant is a halal restaurant on Low Ousegate in York, set between the two cuisines in its name and serving the full menu for walk-in diners. The kitchen works across Afghan and Turkish lines, with the Qabuli lamb shank as a noted main and a platter built to serve four alongside mixed grill, shish chicken and a chef's special. Sides include baba ganosh, Turkish salad and bread, and pizza also features on the list. Portions run large and the team packs takeaway boxes for what does not get finished at the table. The space functions as a sit-down restaurant open for walk-ins throughout service, with the menu and a takeaway option both available to guests.
