La cuisine est vraiment excellente, mais le service laisse malheureusement à désirer. Je n'y suis pas allé pendant une période achalandée, & pourtant j'ai pratiquement dû me débrouiller seul.
J'ai attendu environ 5 minutes debout à l'entrée avant qu'on vienne m'asseoir. On m'a installé près de la porte, mais la serveuse n'est jamais venue prendre ma commande. J'ai finalement dû aller chercher ma boisson moi-même. On ne m'a même jamais offert d'eau, alors que c'est quand même un service de base dans les restaurants au Québec.
J'ai aussi demandé de la sauce pour salade, puisque le Çoban que j'avais commandé n'était pas à mon goût. On m'a répondu qu'ils n'avaient aucune sauce pour salade. Je comprends que la spécialité soit la viande & le kebab, mais si vous servez une salade, ce serait quand même apprécié d'avoir au moins une vinaigrette ou une sauce de base.
Par contre, le lahmacun était incroyable : vraiment délicieux, servi bien chaud & parfaitement fait. 👌
Après avoir terminé mon repas, personne n'est venu débarrasser la table. J'ai finalement interpellé quelqu'un pour demander s'il y avait du thé offert, comme c'est souvent le cas dans les restaurants turcs. On m'a répondu que oui & qu'on allait envoyer la serveuse. Elle est finalement venue environ 3 minutes plus tard pour m'offrir le thé.
Bref, la cuisine est excellente, particulièrement le lahmacun, mais le service aurait clairement besoin d'être amélioré. Cela dit, je suis quand même contente d'avoir une bonne adresse pour manger de la cuisine turque!
Absolutely amazing!
We started with soup 🍲 rouge lentilles which is my favorite & always was soooo delicious 😋 then ordered sandwich kebab d'agneau & donner viand which were yummy & well made! At last baklava & tea for dessert 😋 was not the first time in maison Istanbul & not going to be the last time, always recommend & preferred 👌🏻 well done🫡
This is an arabic restaurant, don't get me wrong, it is not bad, but the way meat is seasoned is arabic style. That being said'pide viande' was very good. Meat & Kebab are also not bad, just not what you would get in a typical Turkish restaurant. I think it is very likely that the owner is not Turkish.

Time of Visit: 11:30 AM (Restaurant Empty)
⭐ Ambiance & Seating (3/5)
We arrived right at opening on a cold Sunday morning. While the restaurant was empty, we were initially seated at a side table near the window. Given the winter temperatures, the chill became noticeable within five minutes. We requested to move & were promptly relocated to the warmer center of the dining room.
Suggestion: Since cold temperatures near the windows have been noted by other diners, it might be more efficient for staff to automatically seat early customers in the center of the restaurant during the winter months.
A notable issue was the noise level once the second table arrived (seated approximately two meters away). Their conversation was extremely loud, making it difficult for us to hear each other & enjoy our meal.
🍽? Food & Flavor Profile
1) Pide with meat & egg - $11.99 before tax - Unexpectedly really tasty eventhough I'm used to Pide with cheese. Every pide I have ever had, both inside & outside of Istanbul/Turkiye, included cheese. Despite this omission, the flavor was way better than anticipated.
2) Kebab Filet Mignon 2 sticks - $27.99 before tax - The meat was tender, but the marinade was heavily spiced, particularly with cumin. This strong spice profile, which wafted noticeably when the server approached, extended to the accompanying fries
🤔 Authenticity & Overall Impression
A note on Authenticity: I must respectfully disagree with other reviews that label this as'authentic Turkish' cuisine.
• The flavor profile, especially the heavy spice use in the kebab, leans very strongly towards a Middle Eastern style rather than the typical, more subtle seasoning found in classic Turkish cooking.
• My Turkish husband agrees that while the food is good, it is not authentically Turkish. We both felt that if the restaurant were named something other than a Turkish descriptor, it would be a more accurate representation of the food served.
• For Context: I did confirm with the waitress that the chef is Turkish.
✅ Service & Logistics
Service was prompt & attentive, which is understandable as we were the only customers. Our server was efficient, juggling our needs while preparing the restaurant for the day. Payment is handled at the cashier station near the entrance.
Overall Rating:
Good food, but the strong Middle Eastern flavor profile & the initial seating/noise issues prevent a perfect score. If you are seeking genuine Turkish flavors, you may be disappointed; if you enjoy Middle Eastern-style kebabs, you will likely be satisfied.
Excellent restaurant ! Accueil chaleureux, service rapide & plats savoureux. Le goût des kebabs est authentique comme à Istanbul. Je recommande vivement Maison Kabeb Istanbul, une superbe expérience !
After watching Ksi??ulo on a Saturday, I had to have a kebab. Didn't want to go into the city for that. Went here & got the chicken sandwich kebab. It made me so happy.
The restaurant was really clean & huge. The service was fast & the staff were really welcoming & nice. We ordered Adana kebab which came with bulgur, salad & fries. The kebab was made from lamb which is not my favourite, it could be tasty for the ones like lamb meat. The overall food quality was good.
Chaque fois que je visite un nouveau restaurant je demande toujours au serveur, cette fois-ci c'était Medhi 10/10, de me servir leur meilleur plat sans même savoir quoi je vais manger.
La pression est sur le serveur & je sais par expérience qu'il ne veut surtout pas décevoir ses convives.
Eh bien, encore une fois, ma copine & moi nous nous sommes régalés.
Salade de brochettes de poulet & steak de surlonge roti sur charbon de bois.
En prime Medhi nous a servi un thé berbère en guise de remerciements.
Longue vie à Istanbul Kebab qui nous a permis de vivre une expérience culinaire internationale le tout dans une ambiance feutrée au doux parfum du Moyen-Orient.
Merci encore Medhi

I ordered lahmacun as an appetizer it was alright. For a main dish I ordered Adana kebab(lamb I think) the taste & the smell was terrible. It smells like it was reheated in a microwave a couple of times & obviously my stomach was very upset & spent most of the night in the washroom. I Don't recommend this place.
