What to Eat at Turkish Village - Best Turkish Restaurant in Dubai How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Turkish Village - Best Turkish Restaurant in Dubai, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Urfa iskander kebab Net −1
“Additionally, today, for the first time, I ordered Urfa Iskander Kebab which is AED 70. Please have a look at the picture which is demonstrated on the noon app (I attached it, see picture below) and look at the "thing" I received. It is ridiculous. Plus, this is what it looked like when I first opened it, I had not even touched it by the time I took the picture. I am aware that if I order food, it won't 100% look the same as in the pictures but come on. There are worlds apart, I got more bread, hardly yoghurt and overall it was dry.”

Tips for a Better Visit
Request Rooftop. Ask for a rooftop seat if the skyline is part of the plan; several reviews specifically highlight the view.
Share Breakfast. The breakfast may be easier to share: one reviewer said the serving meant for one was more than enough for two.
Check Bread. If you order a rooftop set, check that bread arrives with the meal, as one diner needed multiple reminders.
Ask About Tea. Before ordering a pot of tea, ask about the complimentary cups served at the end of the meal.
Use Front Parking. If you are driving, try the spaces directly in front; a reviewer found there was enough parking there.

Common Concerns
Slow Service

Inconsistent Value

Food Hygiene
A delivery customer reported finding a hair and later a lash in separate lahmacun orders.
Service Attitude
One reviewer found the branch’s welcome and customer handling unprofessional, contrasting it unfavourably with Festival City.

The Bottom Line
Turkish Village is a Turkish restaurant in Jumeirah where you can come for breakfast, a family-style meal or a rooftop dinner overlooking Dubai. The menu is broad, but reviews give the clearest endorsements to the Ottoman Breakfast, mixed grills, Adana kebab and Iskender kebab. The entrance also has a small Turkish market selling imported products.
The rooftop is the main setting draw, with reviewers mentioning downtown and Burj Khalifa views, particularly at night. Inside, the Turkish decor, calm seating and background music can make dinner feel relaxed rather than rushed. There is also parking in front, according to one visitor.
Food feedback is mostly strong and specific: lamb kebabs and doner were tender, chicken thighs had a good char, and the kunafa sandwich with pistachio and Turkish ice cream made a memorable finish. The Ottoman Breakfast is described as generous enough for two despite being intended for one. Service is less consistent.
Some diners describe attentive hospitality, while others report very slow attention or reminders needed for bread. Portions have also disappointed some guests, and one delivery review raised serious hygiene concerns after finding foreign objects in lahmacun. If the view matters, request the rooftop; if ordering tea, check what is complimentary first.
