İstiklal Kebap RestaurantC+?

Rumeli Han İstiklal Caddesi, Taksim No:48, 34435 Beyoğlu/İstanbul, Türkiye · Restaurant · Cihangir

Traditional Turkish grills off İstiklal with lively service and mixed reviews; good flavors for many, but recurring billing and portion-size complaints demand caution.

Why this grade

⚠️ Review concerns: This assessment reflects moderate uncertainty due to questionable review patterns. See details in Authenticity Assessment. İstiklal Kebap delivers solid food quality with standout grills and warm hospitality that earn genuine praise, but inconsistent execution and recurring billing disputes significantly undermine the experience.

One caveat: Pricing is genuinely expensive (central Taksim) and portions can be modest
