Istanbul Kebab House

My Mom, Dad and nephew went there today for lunch. They were extremely pleased with everything! My Mom noted that the restaurant was very clean and the food was absolutely delicious. I'm in Austin, TX and they called me asking for help finding an Indian restaurant nearby 45th St., which is where their hotel is at. But, I know their taste and know that they really love cubed lamb kabob so I broadened my search to include Türkiye cuisine. I found Istanbul Kebab House near to their location and hoped for the best. Thankfully, they were more than pleased and are going back for seconds in two days this coming Saturday! Thank you for treating my family like your family and I only wish that I too could have been there. 12/18/25 12/20/25 UPDATE: My family visited a 2nd time and once again told me

My fiance who is Kurdish took me here and I loved the food .Food was delicious this bread was just so hot and fresh..we will go back soon. Waitress was great too.

I went here in a hurry to avoid the rain and fill my hungry stomach. I was drenched in the rain at the time, so I thought I might be worried about the inside of the store getting wet, but they treated me very kindly. I was so happy that the owner was so kind. It was my first time experiencing this kind of feeling abroad, and I was grateful.

After searching for good halal food for the past two days, I finally found this gem! We ordered chicken shawarma, lamb shawarma, and a mixed platter — every dish was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. The meat was juicy and well-seasoned, and the portion sizes were great for the price. The restaurant is clean, staff are friendly, and the service was quick. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and definitely value for money. Highly recommended if you’re craving authentic Turkish or Mediterranean halal food!

Edit: Visited this place 9 months later and still keeping 5 stars!!! It’s a small place but hospitality is 10/10, their two sauces are just🔥 and food was still very good! The prices increased a bit and portion seemed a little smaller but still best Turkish food in the city!!! Best Turkish food in the city and very humble staff. If you need anything they are there to help and food tastes juicy, full of flavor. Although the place is small, it’s just a really great experience at a reasonable price. 100% recommended!!!
