Le Bosphore is described as a warm, welcoming Turkish eatery with generous portions and authentic flavors across breakfast, mezzes, and grills. Reviewers praise the food as delicious and well seasoned, with standout kebabs, bulgur, lentil soup, fresh bread, and a hearty Turkish breakfast, all offered at a fair price. Service is often described as friendly and attentive, contributing to a pleasant atmosphere that is both cozy and clean, though a few notes mention slower times during busy periods and occasional lapses in timing or table clearing. The ambiance, decor, and sometimes live music are highlighted as part of the appealing dining experience, and many guests say they would return with family or friends. Some comments point to minor downsides like cold seating near windows, smaller portions relative to price in certain dishes, or occasional missing items, but these are outweighed by overall satisfaction. In sum, Le Bosphore stands out as a highly recommended option for Turkish cuisine in Montreal, known for generous portions, flavorful dishes, and a welcoming team.
Went there with friends for supper (5 people) a Saturday night. I have never had such a ridiculously long wait in my life. Received the first plate 20min after ordering (which is acceptable) but with the 4 other plates missing. The second plate came out 30min after the first plate. Third plate, 10min after that & the 4th & 5th plate 5min after. So just over an hour before we all received our food! Usually you send out all the food at the same time so that the customers eat their food warm. The food was okay, probably would have been better had it been warm but the portions were small. I understand that there is a large reception room for events that the restaurant caters to, but this greatly reduces the service in the restaurant. I suggest that if you go on a Saturday to call ahead to make sure there's no event that night. Suggestion to the owner: either do one or the other because you clearly can't do both without hurting your business.

C'était trop bon que ça soit le petit déjeuner que ça soit les plats, viande tendre de qualité, le service était à la hauteur, l ambiance turc est présente . Je vous le recommande
C'était notre première visite. J'ai acheté 3 repas pour emporter pour 96$. La place est agréable & la serveuse était très gentille. La nourriture est délicieuse. Seul point néfatif, déception arrivée à la maison: les portions sont tellement petites, on dirait des portions pour enfants. Il y avait 3 bouchées de riz & 6 petits cubes de viandes par plat. Par chance, il y avait du bon pain que nous avons eu 2 petits triangles chacun. Pour le prix, ça n'en vaut pas la peine. Dommage car la nourriture est excellente.
Le restaurant est propre, le personnel & manager sont au petit soin! J'ai aimé l'ambiance & le thé traditionnel à volonté ! Mention spéciale pour les olives & charcuterie ainsi les fromages de bonne qualité! Seul comment : A ajouter le simik dans le menu
Boyfriend & I wanted to go out Christmas morning & this was one of the only places open. We went in & definitely won't be out last time. Good portions & delicious meals. Verrryyy friendly staff as well!
I was very proud to come to Canada & taste Turkish flavors that can compete with high-end restaurants in Turkey. I had been longing for healthy Turkish food in other countries for a long time. I visited 5 times during my 8-day vacation. Every meal was delicious & not heavy. The portions were large & filling. Definitely give breakfast a try. My favorites were meat shish & saff tava. I recommend it.

J'ai adoré mon expérience dans ce restaurant. La nourriture était absolument impeccable, & le thé ainsi que le baklava servis après notre repas étaient la cerise sur le gâteau. Le choix de musique était excellent, &, en général, une ambiance très agréable. Le service était tout simplement incroyable. La serveuse Sérine, qui nous a accueillis, était très attentionnée & gentille, ce qui a rendu notre expérience encore plus plaisante. J'y reviendrai à 100 % !
Je tiens à noter la subtilité des saveurs, au lieu de l'habituel ail/piment qui cache tout le reste. La qualité du boeuf était exceptionnelle, saveur & cuisson parfaites. Les enfants (habituellement difficile de leur plaire) ont adoré: "Notre nouveau resto préféré!" Nous reviendrons bientôt. Nouveaux propriétaires, nouveau menu, nouveau chef... adorables!
I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant recently, & I must say it exceeded my expectations in every way. The mixed kebabs were absolutely delicious-perfectly cooked, flavorful, & presented beautifully. Each bite was a testament to the quality & care that goes into their food. The service was outstanding as well. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, & made sure we were comfortable throughout the meal. They were quick to respond to any requests & always did so with a smile, which made the experience even more enjoyable. One of the highlights of my visit was the generous variety of complimentary mezes. Every dish was fresh, tasty, & well-prepared. The bread they served alongside was warm, soft, & paired perfectly with the mezes. It truly felt like a feast even before the main course arrived! Another major plus is that there's no parking issue, which made the visit stress-free from the moment I arrived. It's such a relief to not have to worry about finding a spot, especially in a busy area. All in all, I had an excellent experience & would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food, exceptional service, & a welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back soon!"
