Constantinople - Albany

The food in this place is super good. The menu is different enough and it has a real authentic South East Europe Turkish taste. The meat has a fantastic dash of char to it. Youll feel damn great after eating here. Portions are a little on the small side, but grab some dessert and you'll be golden.

An amazing food experience— I can taste the authenticity. Tender and falling apart in your mouth pressure cooked lamb, creamy red lentil soup, beautifully plated food, friendly chef and staff, and really interesting shelf food I’ve never seen before! The free candy I tried out as I paid for my meal was really fascinating as well— brightly coloured, soft, salty on the outside, sweet, melt in my mouth....honey like aftertaste after a few minutes..... The restaurant looks plain outside, but once you walk in, everything is so comfy, gorgeous, friendly....the chef/owner greeted us, chatted, asked if we’d like the heater on....all the outdoor chairs have pillows and comforters...... They deserve more customers :’ I don’t understand why it was so empty on a Monday afternoon at around 1-2pm.

Really authentic Turkish food. So tasty! Will be back

Wow.  The new restaurant on the Avenue is exceptional and I consider myself to be a pretty tough critic..  Authentic Turkish food with flavours that are rich.  I had the Halloumi chips for a starter and they were delicious.  It was a generous size serving.  My husband had a Taramasalata and said it was great.  I then had slow cooked Orpheus Chicken and devoured most of it.  I say most of it because like the previous reviewer said, you need to make sure you leave enough space in your tummy for their yummy desserts.  A lovely addition to our eating choices in Albany. Totally recommend it.

Such a cool little place. Feels very authentic and you can see your food being prepared. There's a covered deck area which can hold large groups or yiu can sit inside if you want somewhere quieter. Food was superb and I give the yoghurt cheesecake the big thumbs up!
