Istanbul Doner House

I have had Turkish food across the world. I have had it in Turkey, in Germany, in USA and now in Canada.
I can honestly say that this comes top 3 when it comes to food. However when it comes to service it’s a bit problematic.
Firstly I feel that the place has grown rapidly and that has resulted in issues. Despite the prices (which are for a proper restaurant) the tables are thrown together like a cafeteria. I also felt that the host (waiters and waitresses) are overwhelmed because it’s so popular.

If you want authentic Turkish food in Toronto then definitely visit İstanbul doner house. But make sure you give enough time and definitely make sure you won’t go during a rush time. (There are no reservations)

P.S I was told that restaurant has already renovated and improved a lot. I hope they continue to do so.

Great food and very friendly services. I was told what they serve is exactly the same as what in Turkey. What an authentic Turkish restaurant. Although the restaurant is small and the tables are pretty close to one another, it is not an issue for diners as you will find every dish is really special. Serving presentations are unique or authentic.
People are friendly and explain the menu if it is your first time visiting this restaurant.

Price is reasonable for the quality of food. I enjoyed my meal very much and I will be there again.

I wish I could give them 10/10. I love turkish food but it was my first time at this restaurant. I must say the food is delicious. The service is exceptional. All the staff is very polite. Moreover, complimentary salad (which we do not see in GTA) is certainly a plus. Nice ambiance. Highly recommend.

today went to Istanbul doner , excellent environment, friendly staff and delicious doner we tried chicken and beef both were good tender and juicy not dry like the other places ,
Humus was good too , bread was amazing perfectly baked the best thing about that place was the one of the staff named FARDA she was very helpful in recommending the dishes and confident about the taste I will remember her smily face and definitely recommend this place to families and we ourself will go there again.
Excellent experience.
********** 10 stars for FARDA

From the moment I entered their quaint restaurant, service was top notch.
Server Ferda seated me, even though I walked in 10 minutes before opening time.
Döner kebap (with meat) was full of flavour served with fresh vegetables and thin bread to lap up the juices from the meat.
Dessert was a carrot baklava with Kahramanmaraş ice cream sandwiched in between. All very tasty.
Unfortunately for me, at one point I was full, even though the flavours were still calling me for more.
Serving portions are generous to heaping. Priced very reasonably for the quantity and high quality of each of the items I had.
Definite must stop in Mississauga

The platter for 2 was amazing! Lots of options and big enough for 3 people to eat.The naan bread with the appetizer was excellent!! So soft and fresh. The plain sade icecream was excellent, must try! They also give complimentary salad so don't order one.
The spinach n feta cheese pide was very saltish so we didn't enjoy it. Service was slow. Food came in 4 parts, we didn't like that but overall good experience and reasonable prices.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at my favorite Turkish restaurant, and I have to say, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The food is absolutely delicious, and the service is simply amazing.

One of the highlights of the menu is the mixed kebab, which is a delicious combination of lamb, chicken, and beef cooked to perfection and served with rice and vegetables. The flavors are absolutely incredible and will leave your taste buds dancing with joy.

Another must-try dish is the lentil soup, which is warm, comforting, and absolutely delicious. It's the perfect starter to your meal and will leave you feeling satisfied and content.

Of course, no meal at this Turkish restaurant is complete without trying their desserts and ice creams. They have a fantastic selection of sweet treats that are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth, including baklava and Turkish delight. And their ice creams are simply out of this world, with flavors like pistachio and berry flavour that will leave you wanting more.

But what really sets this restaurant apart is the amazing service. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, and they go out of their way to make sure you have the best possible dining experience. They are always willing to answer any questions you may have and will make sure you leave feeling happy and satisfied.

Overall, I would highly recommend this Turkish restaurant to anyone looking for amazing food and fantastic service. It's a true gem of a restaurant that you won't want to miss out on

Will preface this by saying that the food is phenomenal and in 100% will go back. Quantity was great and tasted amazing. However, they gave my order to someone else (I'm pretty sure) as when I asked for my order they gave me someone else's receipt and then were a bit panicked. Had to wait an extra 20 mins for my order which was annoying.

All that being said still food was delicious and plentiful and would go back for takeout.
