Chef Istanbul est largement salué pour son ambiance chaleureuse et accueillante et ses plats turcs réconfortants, avec du pain frais, des kebabs savoureux, des viandes tendres et des falafels remarquables. Le service est souvent décrit comme sympathique et efficace, beaucoup soulignant un personnel réactif et même du thé turc offert après le repas. La carte est variée et généreuse, ce qui en fait un choix populaire pour les étudiants et les clients du centre-ville recherchant des options halal à des prix raisonnables. Bien que la plupart des avis soient très positifs sur la qualité et l'authenticité, quelques mentions évoquent des saveurs parfois inégales, des plats pouvant être plus vifs et certaines zones à l'étage qui peuvent sembler smoky ou bondées en période de forte affluence. Dans l'ensemble, l'établissement est perçu comme une adresse fiable pour une cuisine turque authentique, un bon rapport qualité-prix et des portions généralement généreuses.
Amaaaaaazing food, wow. Hands down some of the best middle eastern food I've had. The bread was also super fresh, made in-house, & could be eaten on its own. The owners also came over with Turkish tea afterwards! Got the family platter which is great for 4-5 people & a solid price.

Best Turkish I've ever had! The combo came with some AMAZING sesame bread, can't wait to have it again. The salad was alright but I loved the kebab & the fries were also perfect! The upstairs got a bit smokey but otherwise loved this place!
Great spot for authentic Turkish food! The kebabs were juicy & full of flavor, & the portions were very generous for the price. The place has a nice, casual vibe & the service was quick & friendly. It can get a bit busy, but overall a really good experience. Definitely worth a visit if you're craving Turkish cuisine!

By far the best Turkish food in Montreal, their variety of meats & their exceptional labneh is exquisite. Quality is always top tier & their service is excellent. Highly recommend!
The place looks nice, but honestly the food doesn't really match the name Chef Istanbul, It's not terrible, but if you've ever tried real Turkish food, you can feel the difference right away. The taste & quality could be much better it's missing that authentic Turkish flavor.
L'endroit est agréable, mais honnêtement la nourriture ne correspond pas vraiment au nom, Chef Istanbul, Ce n'est pas mauvais, mais si vous avez déjà goûté à la vraie cuisine turque, vous sentez tout de suite la différence. Le goût & la qualité pourraient être bien meilleurs, il manque la vraie saveur turque authentique.
The place is nice & clean, & the food is good. However, there are other Turkish restaurants in Montréal with stronger & more authentic flavors. Still, it's a decent experience overall
Good place for authentic Turkish food! The dishes are flavorful & well prepared, the portions are generous, & the atmosphere is very welcoming. The staff are friendly & attentive, & everything feels fresh & quality. Definitely a place I'd recommend if you love Turkish cuisine
The best food taste & service in my 20 years as a chef, I am a chef by myself the best food Turkish I had in my life presentation taste service excelente chef Estefano please come to taste the authentic flavour from turkeys . Best of best in town🥰😍👍🏻👌🏻
Awesome taste of the food. Very healthy meal options. Complimentary turkish kehwa, turkish bread. Amazing food. Mr. Abbas served us very nicely. Highly recommended in Montreal. Baklawa was also tasty.
One of the best halal restaurants in Montréal. Quick service, reasonably priced food & delicious meals. If you order the Turkish'burger' it is very tasty both chicken & lamb I believe for 9.99. I went with one of that & also the plate for 15.99 which was also good. Filling food so you won't leave hungry, satisfying experience & quick service. Oh & the seating area is nice too have plenty of space upstairs which is where I sat with 2 other people. Highly recommend if in downtown Montréal
Was excited to see a new Turkish grillhouse pop up in the neighbourhood as I am very fond of Turkish food. The prices seemed a bit high for a casual, takeout restaurant. So I opted for a sandwich. There were no customization options. The sandwich I received was overly toasted, burnt at the edges with a sad amount of toppings. Really was not worth the dollars. I might have had a better experience if I went for the platter which was about twice the price.
2025 update: I've come back a couple times since & my experience was much better the second time. Third time was better than first time but not as good as the 2nd time. Seems like experience here varies depending on who is working.
