"As for the meat served, it should be noted that Kasap Osman values nothing above the quality of its meat with the years of experience. Thanks to these dedicated efforts, Kasap Osman has become, beyond dispute, one of the best döner shops of İstanbul."

"When this marvelous taste served in a pot together with some yogurt is brought to your table, you should do nothing but enjoy this taste."

RL Reeves Jr.

"Kasap Osman is famous for Iskender kebab. I’ve had plenty of the fake stuff but this is supposed to be the real deal. The best in town, and outside a trip to Bursa, the most authentic to be had."

Taryn Adler Blank

"You won’t be lacking for a good kebab in Istanbul, but the Iskender variety is special. Kasap Osman serves the best one in the city."

Louis Herman

"Choices here also include tavuk şiş (grilled chicken bits on a stick,) and a variety of other kebaps (meats on sticks). As well as a wonderful dessert called sütlaç which is a kind of Turkish rice pudding."

Engin Özger

"I’ve been looking for the best sütlaç for quite a long time and Kasap Osman was the closest so far to meet my erotic dreams of the heavenly sütlaç."

Ansel Mullins

"Döner is sold on every Istanbul street corner, but few spots match the pedigree of Kasap Osman ("Osman the Butcher")."

Istanbul Eats

"Naturally, the quality of the meat plays an important role as well, and who better to trust at the spit than Osman, who actually is a former butcher."

Istanbul Eats

"If you don’t have time for the official İskender kebab pilgrimage to Bursa, head over to Kasap Osman for the best genuine fake İskender in the city."

Louis Herman

"Specializing in iskender and döner, you seriously can’t go wrong when selecting from the limited menu. They don’t serve anything they don’t believe in, or anything they didn’t butcher upstairs."
