    My experience at Istanbul Turkish Restaurant was memorable. The ambience is amazing and the employees are prompt to deliver service with warm smiles on the their faces. The food is tasty, definitely a place to visit when you're in Yaounde.

    First impression was great, extraordinary service , very fast compared to other places which i have visited, a very broad menu with alot of options. Nice natural drinks Bad news for the alcoholics because they don’t sell alcohol beither do they smoke there because its a muslim owned restaurant and they have their values to maintain. Looking for a great breakfast experience? I think this should be your spot Even though the view outside is not the greatest of all. Like if this review was helpful

    Not sure I was eating at the same restaurant as all the good reviews. Was taken to this place twice by my host. Was being polite and not offend him when he took us to the place the second time. The food was slightly better on the second occasion. But definitely not a place I would like to eat at again. Management need to give their staff some training in customer service and good manners.

    Very nice place, the food is ok, good customer care but if you seat upstairs they might forget you and you'll have to wait for long before they serve you

    This is probably one of better places to eat in Yaounde. Great Turkish food, well organized and professional staff. They also offer other international food. They don't serve alcohol though. I'd definitely recommend of you are visiting or living here - went here 2 out of 6 nights.

    Hello from Ukraine! Well in general the place is cozy and nice but...a big but. I came to eat steak. In fact never expected from such place to have zero knowledge how to cook this dish. First, they have different picture on menu, secondly after calling a cook and explaned what I want they brought a thin slice of meat:))) . It was tasty but never a steak!!! Administration must review this misunderstanding in dishes and not to confuse people.

  • 4/5 Brondon Wills MOKIADJE K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great first impression comparison to other places I've been, and a huge menu with lots of choices 😃. Due to the fact that the establishment is owned by Muslims and they must uphold their moral standards, neither alcohol nor smoking are permitted inside. nonetheless, they have nice natural beverages. Looking for a fantastic experience? Check them for your next outing 😉 😊 Not very easy on prices but it's worth it !

    (Translated by Google) It is impossible not to come to Cameroon and stop by this restaurant. Among the bad dishes in Cameroon, it is a place that makes legendary Turkish dishes and meat, fish and chicken dishes. At the same time tea, Turkish coffee, doner place 😂😂 what more. Service is very fast. They work very crowded. And if you are Turkish, someone from Turkey is interested. You can easily tell your problem. (Original) Kamerun'a gelipte bu restauranta uğramamak imkansız gibi bir şey. Kamerun da ki kötü yemekler arasında efsane Türk yemekleri ve et, balık, tavuk yemekleri yapan bir yer. Aynı zamanda çay, Türk kahvesi, döner bulunan yer 😂😂 daha ne olsun. Servis gayet hızlı. Baya kalabalık çalışıyorlar. Ve Türkseniz sizle Türk biri ilgileniyor. Derdinizi rahat rahat anlatabilirsiniz.

    (Translated by Google) Really average quality for a fairly high price but above all, the waitress arrives with a note of 14,000 instead of 8,000 that we owed and we had to fight with one of the manager to pay only what was displayed on the menu and not what 'they tried to cripple us. In short, thieves, do not go. (Original) Qualité vraiment moyenne pour un prix assez élevé mais surtout, la serveuse arrive avec une note de 14 000 au lieu de 8000 que nous devions et nous avons dû batailler avec un des responsable pour payer uniquement ce qui etait affiché à la carte et non ce qu'ils ont tenté de nous estorquer. Bref, des voleurs, n'y allez pas.

    Istanbul Turkish Restaurant is an amazing hub in downtown Yaoundé in the Bastos neigborhood. The place is good especially for its grilled chicken a delicacy that fits the palate of their vide variety of customers. 5 of my friends and I had this famous chicken treat this afternoon after chilled milk as entrées. The place is not too difficult to spot with very beautiful rest rooms to take care of customers in pressing need to ease themselves. The only down side is that they don't have enough parking space for the vehicles of their teeming clientele.

    Great joint for good food such as pizza in Yaoundé. Highly recommended
