🏠 The Iskele Restaurant, Ground Floor At 179 And 181, 177-187 Whitecross Street, EC1Y 8QP
Tier Achieved:
Clean. Reliable. Does the job.
The "lights out missionary" of food. Spotless kitchen, decent grub. Won't blow your mind, won't disappoint.
The Iskele Restaurant is your typical charming neighborhood spot that serves up Turkish classics without the fuss. With a menu that includes baba ghanoush and lamb tagine, it’s perfect for a casual meal before a show at the Barbican. The staff, especially the polite Turkish manager, are friendly and attentive, making sure your experience is pleasant.
While the portions aren’t massive, they’re enough to satisfy. Just manage your expectations if you’re used to larger servings from Mediterranean spots. If you’re after quality over quantity, Iskele could be your new go-to for Turkish dishes in the area.
