    I've been passing this place loads of times and always wanted to try it because I'm a huge fan of BBQ food. Finally the opportunity came. All I can say is WOW! Everything is absolutely delicious! The quality of the food and meat is outstanding. The brisket, the burgers, the sausages! FOOD HEAVEN! Everything here is top notch! The wait staff are friendly, attentive and also speak English. This restaurant has become one of my favourite places in Istanbul. I'll definitely be going back.

    This is a great BBQ house. One of the staffs suggested the Combo menu and it was delicious. It may seem a bit overpriced but the quality and taste is good if you like BBQ menu. And the price makes sense for this location. We enjoyed it and would definitely suggest it. Will visit here again. Also try their homemade lemonade, it was great.

    Solid barbecue. As an American, it was a little odd that the potato side dishes were served cold, but they were still tasty. The barbecue demiglace isn't overly powerful and allows the flavor of the brisket and ribs to remain at the forefront. The sausage was a bit more hot dog like in texture than I expected, but was once again, very tasty.

    ribs, burgers and burger bread are very tasty, brisket is a little bit dry but we ate at night maybe time is the reason for that but other foods are very delicious. potato chips are very crunchy.

    After finding this restaurant on social media, we had to give it a try. The service was great; the waitron was friendly and had a great understanding of the menu. We'd opted for pulled brisket burgers and they were well presented. I'd asked for a "extra hot" but unfortunately didn't get it, it was mildly spicy but still tasteful. Whilst the crisps were playful I'd still have preferred fries. and 8/10 for the burger. Being a (sort-of) American style barbecue restaurant I wish they served alcohol as a beer with this sort of meal would be great. A must visit if you're a lover of barbecue meats.

    It was a coincidence that I found this lovely place by the help of Google maps. From outside the place doesn't look promising, but trust me, it's about what's inside. I tried the "Just Combo" mix, it was amazing. Look at the pictures. Juicy meat, crispy potato, the potato salad was like my mom made it, the hot dog is mind-blowing! The service and stuff was friendly, a true gem in this area, I highly recommend it to try!

    All the way visiting from Australia, we just had to try Just BBQ while in Istanbul. A much more relaxed area than the touristy section. Nice two storey setting overlooking the street. The food was excellent and super tasty. I recommend having the tangy lemonade to go with it! Well priced too. Try it out!

    Very delicious pulled beef burger! The potatoes were fantastic too. The meat has a classic BBQ flavor and the "normal burger" is also a very large portion! We will definitely be back! The service is very nice. Absolutely 5 stars! Thank You!

    Amazing beef. The best I’ve ever had. Super soft and full of flavour. Will definitely be on my my “must go to” spots for Istanbul! Lovely service too, very nice staff. Didn’t wait too long for the food either. Went for the Combo/Kombo , waiter did tell me it’s for 2 people and I should have listened! Nevertheless my taste buds have been satisfied!!! UPDATE: back again 3 months later. Food is as I remember it, flavoursome, soft, hit the spot 👌🏼. Customer service is also top. Food came in good time. Hamza was our waiter tonight. He was very kind and helpful! Helped us choose what we want and we do not regret what we have just eaten! Food is great, service is great, location is great. What more can I ask for? Thank you to the team here. I’d like to wish Hamza and everyone at Just BBQ good luck in their futures and hope to see them again sooner rather than later!

    Oh my god! What should I say? The most amazing BBQ meat I’ve ever tried in my life. Smoky and spiced the best way. If you ever reached this place don’t hesitate to give it a try. Prices are very reasonable as well!

    Süper süper süper servis. Ate here with my brothers as a last minute decision on our last day in Turkey and we absolutely do not regret it. The food was a solid 9/10, setting is a cozy 8/10 and the service is 10/10. Big thank you to Mr Hamza for his helpful and generous service, making us feel VERY comfortable and welcomed. An aspiring and willing young man. Thank you very much, Just BBQ and Hamza!!! Will definitely pay another visit here next time we’re in Turkey!

    FINALLY I found Beef ribs and Brisket in Istanbul.. and it’s really, really good 😄 The place is small and elegant with nicely chosen music, the staff are super friendly and helpful. The brisket and beef ribs are cooked to the perfection. There is a Sample Plate that has small portions of brisket, beef ribs, ribs burger and brisket burgers for you if you would prefer a taste of everything. This is recommended. The price is higher than usual but is worth every lira. I highly recommend this restaurant. BTW, if you fear the place might be packed, make sure to make a reservation before going, you may do that through Google Maps.

    If you like meat, you should definitely take the big portion! It's delicious

    We tried Tiftik Burger and it was DELICIOUS. They have different size options for burger bread, after choosing your bread you can add 50gr meat to your burger. They served the burger with potato chips. Totally loved it!!

  • 4/5 Ege 1 year ago on Google
    We tried hot brisket burger. The taste of the burger was in general good but brisket could've been fattier and juicier. It was a bit dry when it was combined with burger bun. Next to it there was lays like chips which tasted home made but I would prefer regular fries next to such burger. 2 sauces were given one something creamy which was good with burger and chips but instead if it was sour creme I would be much more happy. Other was BBQ sauce and tasted fine. Service was nice, waiters were kind.

  • 4/5 hcbekardi 1 year ago on Google
    Texas resident here so I have a very high expectation for BBQ - it’s was pretty good - however the brisket tasted like Barbacoa and I’m Mexican so I know this very distinct taste and my fiend also agreed. The potato salad was pretty good. The lemonade was amazing. This bBQ for the area is a good stop - service was good.

  • 3/5 Soheil E. 9 months ago on Google
    I liked their burgers, it wasn't wonderful but it was pretty good, I didn't like the burger side dish, it was very oily. The price was also a bit high. But in general when you are hungry and it is a little late to find the restaurant open you can go there and have fun with your food on the terrace and watch the people. The waiters will be very nice and speak good English.

  • 5/5 Chifaa D. 1 year ago on Google
    Good bbq place. Even better than many places in Atlanta, GA. Had the ribs and it was delicious 🤤 One of the servers spoke English sonit made it easier to order. They have few sides that come with the meat (Fries, potato salad, greens and pickles). The sauces were good, especially the BBQ one. The prices were very reasonable. Good location too.

  • 5/5 Lukas T. 9 months ago on Google
    Excellent ribs! Please consider cooking the chips in beef tallow instead of toxic seed oils 🙏🏼

  • 4/5 Ines M. 1 year ago on Google
    The pulled burger is super yummy! I think I have never had a better one. I just didn‘t dig the potato chips so much. I‘d prefer regular or sweet potato fries.

  • 5/5 Jana S. 2 years ago on Google
    Ribs burger is so so amazing!!!! The taste is great! Big burger and very meaty! Inside of the burger there are lots of ingredients so taste is really great!

    Food is really good. The potatoes are tasty and crunchy. The meat is good quality! But the service could be better. We didn't receive our drinks even after asking 2 times...

  • 5/5 Lara M. 2 years ago on Google
    The barbecue is sooo good here. I am a tourist from Canada and was so satisfied with the food. Buttery soft barbecue that melts in your mouth, amazing sauces and the potato chips are divine! Our server Ali was also so lovely and hospitable. 5 stars!

  • 4/5 Larry C. 2 years ago on Google
    Is it unfair to compare this place to Texas barbecue? In my estimation, not bad for Istanbul. I was able to try the 200g brisket platter, which was served with flatbread, smashed potatoes, coleslaw, pickles and potato salad. Everything was good enough, but did not taste like true Southern barbecue, especially the brisket. Although it was a good protein hit, I would try one of the many other restaurants in the area before I came back here.

  • 5/5 Omar R. 2 years ago on Google
    Wow! This put me in a meat coma. I did the combination platter which came with both the brisket and the rib meat. It’s all homemade style. The meat was juicy and tender. Perfect amount of salt and fat. Nice condiments and sides. The staff provided excellent service, thank you! A nice casual ambiance. One of the best food spots Beşiktaş. Will definitely eat there again when I’m around.

😐 The place is nice, we had almost 100 Midye mixed between spiced and normal ones! Taste and price are good, place is also clean, my only issue with the place and why it was given 3 stars is the fact that we did not have a place to wash our hands and I tried to explain I want gloves but with no luck!
