What guests say about LE BOSPHORE
The reviews are very mixed: several customers find the food excellent, generous, and authentic, with a warm welcome and good value for money. However, many comments complain about very slow or disorganized service, forgotten orders, dishes served cold, and sometimes cleanliness issues. This restaurant seems to be more appreciated when the service is good, but the experience can be inconsistent.
Reviews / Ratings for LE BOSPHORE
This was our first time visiting this restaurant. The food was good, but the waiting time was quite long. We were also bothered by the loud noises coming from the kitchen and the swearing in Arabic. After that, we saw one of the female employees come to the cash register crying, and honestly, we felt really bad for her. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect and basic human decency at work. Unfortunately, this experience left us with a negative first impression of the restaurant.
We had a woderful brunch at thist place. The food was fresh , delicious with variety.very freindly staff and attentive.reasonable price for the quality.highly recommended.
Nothing to do with Turkish restaurant! I went to many many Turkish restaurants and I know what Im talking about. I couldn’t eat anything.. it’s not fresh at all. the meat is really bad quality ,bulgur is old and oily .. never again.
Unfortunately, our breakfast experience was very disappointing. We came here expecting a Turkish breakfast, but there was hardly anything on the menu that felt authentically Turkish. The music was loud and annoying, which made the atmosphere uncomfortable. There was also a strong chemical smell, almost like bleach, coming from somewhere in the restaurant. It was so unpleasant that I completely lost my appetite and couldn’t eat. The tea was also disappointing—it tasted as if it had been brewed twice and had almost no fresh flavor. Overall, this was not the Turkish breakfast experience we were expecting, and unfortunately, I would not recommend it.
Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing experience. The restaurant did not feel Turkish at all, and the music was extremely loud. The breakfast quality was awful, and there was a strong bleach-like chemical smell throughout the restaurant. The food also took far too long to arrive. Overall, the food, atmosphere, service, and experience were very poor. I would not recommend this restaurant.

Amazing food, great service, classy restaurant. I will definitely be back for my anniversary!!!
I never see the Turkish’s restaurants like that it’s no good service and no good food at all I received my food after 42 minutes and food is really bad no fresh food and quality of food is really bad and quantity of food is also very low what’s they showed at menus
We spent a truly marvelous time during our afternoon visit. The food plates were quite satisfying, and everyone we met was exceedingly polite. The team was exceptionally welcoming. On the whole, it was a wonderful encounter that combined good standards with very modest expenses.
Very good place for grillade and service is friendly. Food excellent!
Very disappointing experience overall at Le Bosphore. From the moment we arrived for our reservation, the restaurant felt extremely disorganized. There was barely any staff available to greet or seat us, and multiple (6/8) chairs at our table had bread crumbs, water, or sticky wine stains on them. We ended up cleaning and swapping chairs ourselves because no staff was around to help. Unfortunately, the cleanliness issues continued throughout the evening. Several utensils still had visible food residue on them, and the menus were heavily grease-stained to the point where wiping one down left orange residue on the napkin. After spending quite a while choosing our meals, we were only then informed that there was no more lamb available, forcing literally everyone at the table to completely change their orders. This could easily have been communicated beforehand. The service was extremely slow and chaotic overall. Complimentary appetizers were appreciated, and some items were decent, but one sauce tasted questionable. When the main dishes arrived, they came out one by one over a 10–15 minute span instead of together. At one point, servers were visibly wandering around trying to figure out which table ordered which plates, and we had to wave them down three separate times ourselves (3 dishes). The food itself was also underwhelming. I also asked three separate times for an accompaniment that never arrived. Basic service was lacking throughout the evening as well. For a table of eight, we initially received only two medium-sized water bottles and had to ask for more water ourselves. Servers do not check on table if everything is fine - even if they are friendly, yet lost. We originally planned on staying for dessert, but after the overall experience and extremely long service times, we decided to leave instead, skipping the included tea, etc. I cannot fathom the fact this restaurant has over 3 stars. The restaurant has potential aesthetically, but the cleanliness, organization, service, and food quality all need major improvement.
We came to Le Bosphore for Brunch on Mother’s Day since we heard good comments about their dinner menu. The service was so slow and inattentive. When we were sat, the table was still dirty and when she cleaned it (probably with a dirty rag) the table smelled mildew. They then set the table but we were missing utensils and some of them were dirty. When we finally ordered and received our food a little while later, we got served cold-ish eggs that were supposed to be sunny side up but looked and tasted like plastic since they were way over cooked. We barely got any fruits when other tables got served a decent amount for the number of people present. We had to ask for bread and water and the bread was burnt. When we asked for new bread, the server said it would take a while and that we should start with the burnt bread first. I will never come here again. I think it’s sad to offer such a service when there aren’t many Arab/Turkish restaurants in Montreal that we can support.
Food too salty I was not able to eat it also staff was not good
I had a wonderful experience at LE BOSPHORE. The service was absolutely excellent, and the staff made me feel very welcome from the moment I arrived. Everything was well organized, and the atmosphere was warm and comfortable. A special thanks to Soukaina for providing such outstanding service very friendly, attentive, and professional. It truly made the visit even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great service and a pleasant dining experience. Definitely deserving of 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I read the reviews and decided to try this restaurant. The service was very poor. We were three people but were given only one cup. The forks were dirty, even that one cup was dirty! They served the salad and soup after the main dish. The portion sizes compared to the price were not worth it. I will not go back and do not recommend it at all.
Was amazing!!
Paid 57.47$ this! We are 2 adults. The eggs was disgusting! And the rest of what they gave is decoration lol. We didn't eat we paid and left and ate somewhere else! Please avoid this place so you dont get disappointed. The owners and chef are not even turkish.
We drove in from Brossard to try Bosphorus Istanbul Kebab in Montreal, and it turned out to be an absolute gem. I went with my wife and her cousin who was visiting from Ottawa, and all three of us were genuinely impressed from start to finish. The service stood out right away, the young lady 💐who took care of us went above and beyond, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We started with spring rolls, a Caesar salad, soujouk cheese pie, and fries , and honestly, the appetizers were to die for. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. And the hot bread… wow 🤩 warm, soft, and unforgettable. For the main course, we had the Adana Ali Nazik, and it was perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and truly authentic Turkish cuisine at its best. We finished with kunefe, and it was the perfect ending — rich, warm, and absolutely delicious. We were looking for a nice place to take my wife’s cousin, and this turned out to be a jackpot. It was absolutely worth the drive, and we’re already looking forward to coming back again.
It was sooooooooo goodddd
The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the Bosphore platter, bulgur, and kunefe were all absolutely delicious — everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The presentation of the dishes was also very nice, which made the experience even better.However, the service really needs improvement. The waiter seemed uninterested and inattentive. Even during busy hours, this level of service is not acceptable — there should be at least 2 or 3 staff members, as it clearly felt understaffed. They forgot to bring my drink and did not remove it from the bill; we only noticed this after we got home. Small details like this make a big difference. In addition, the communication was not professional — the waiter came across as rude, not welcoming, and did not seem to know how to properly التعامل with customers. We also had to wait longer than expected for basic service, and it was difficult to get attention when we needed something. A simple smile or a polite attitude would have changed the whole experience.Overall, the food and atmosphere were great, but the service unfortunately did not match that quality. With better staff training and organization, this place could be excellent.
Excellent experience
Very poor expérience. Bad service, the only Turkish thing about this restaurant are the pictures on the wall. Even the tea was served cold. The empty plates of food were not removed until we left the place. No one answered the phone. The special announced on line was no longer existing once we got to the place. Highly NOT recommended.
