What our guests are saying
There is an amazing bakery on the side of this restaurant - both the restaurant and the bakery are amazing. The staff is really nice and helps out with suggesting different dishes. I’ve tried so many Turkish desserts for the first time and they have become my favorites. I wasn’t too familiar with Turkish food before coming but my family have become regulars and we’ve tried the whole menu but keep coming back. The bread is so fresh and tastes so good with the appetizer platter. The shrimp is some of the best in the area! I always get the manti- a beef dumpling in a yogurt mint sauce. Highly recommend!

Authentic Turkish dishes. Great atmosphere and staff. My boyfriend orders from here often and brought me here to experience the dinning. The bakery café attached has a beautiful variety as you can see in the video. Loved it and will return.

Heard good things about this place and been meaning to pay a visit. Finally made it here the other day. Totally worth it. I came for take out and was greeted by friendly staff. The place is immaculate but simple. For my main, I ordered the Istanbul Classic grill with lamb, chicken (Adana) and beef done to succulent savory perfection. Istanbul Cafe is also known for their excellent red lentil soup. My wife had the chicken kebabs and also loved it. I was blown away by the bakery on premises that makes all kinds of wonderful desserts. Ever find yourself in Centereach, this is the spot!
