Kofte Net +1

“Regarding ordering food - our order was simple. They brought us almost everything correctly. I'm disappointed from the fact that I particularly asked for fresh vegetables with my kofte. But they brought me kofte with chopped onions and piece of grilled tomato. It's my fault that I didn't specify that I don't eat onions like this. But the grilled tomato is NOT fresh vegetable. Grilled means gone through termical treatment and cooked. For me the cooked tomatoes are disgusting and that's why I specifically asked for fresh tomato.”

The Bottom Line

Bosporus Turkish Cuisine in Jumeirah is a sit-down Turkish restaurant that works for breakfast, family meals and relaxed dinners. The menu gives you plenty to share: the Bosporus Mixed Grill, cold mezze, kebabs and freshly baked bread are recurring strengths. Manti is worth noting too, since one reviewer called it a rare Turkish dish to find in Dubai.

Breakfast has its own following, with generous set menus and options such as breakfast for two and cheese burak. For dessert, the crisp kunefe, baklava and Turkish ice cream are the safer bets from the reviews; complimentary Turkish tea is also mentioned by diners. The setting is warm and Turkish-inspired, with indoor and outdoor seating, and one review highlights a second-floor skyline and sunset view.

There are a few practical caveats. Breakfast can slow during the morning rush, and the restaurant may feel crowded at peak times. One diner received cold lamb chops and an oily, seemingly reheated starter, so it is reasonable to flag temperature issues promptly.

Pricing is described as above average by some reviewers. Parking in front is paid, while rear parking has been described as free but sandy or unpaved. Outdoor seating may be designated for smokers and the roadside can be noisy.
