Tips for a Better Visit

1

Request Terrace. Ask for the second-floor terrace if you want the sea and Ain Dubai views; it is also where smoking and shisha are mentioned.

2

Try Sultan. For breakfast, consider the Sultan Breakfast if you want enough variety to sample several traditional items rather than one dish.

The Bottom Line

Bosporus Turkish Cuisine at The Beach is a Turkish restaurant in Jumeirah Beach Residence where breakfast is a major draw. The Sultan Breakfast brings a broad spread of breads, cheeses, eggs and traditional sides, while the dinner menu is represented in reviews by Iskender Kebab, mixed grills, mezze and döner. Portions can be generous enough to share, so it is worth checking before ordering several mains.

The setting is a big part of the appeal. Outdoor seating looks towards the sea, beach and Ain Dubai, and the second-floor terrace is also mentioned for smoking and shisha. Some dishes, including a beef clay pot stew, come with tableside fire-show presentation.

Complimentary Turkish tea is a recurring extra, and one breakfast review also mentions unlimited tea and complimentary sweets. Service is usually described as warm, attentive and professional, but it is not completely consistent. One visit involved a long wait to order and delayed tea service, while another found breakfast flavours less convincing than the presentation.

Outdoor diners should also know that crows may come close to tables and pick up tissues. The menu’s calorie listings are useful if you are trying to judge portions before ordering.
