What People Are Saying About Bursa Kebab
Featured Review

In Short – Fragrant Turkish, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes are presented with friendly charm at this light-filled eatery. Signature kebabs are slow-roasted vertically and sawed off to enjoy with savory sauces and warm Turkish pide (pita) bread. Platters include fresh, traditional salads and spreads such as hummus and baba ghanooj. Belly dancers entertain on weekends.
Awesome Lamb Kebab

I love their lunch specials. The food is delicious, the prices are reasonable, the atmosphere is nice, and the staff are friendly. I come here about once a month when I start craving their lamb kebab.

We just had diiner at the Bursa last night. Our meal was outstanding, the service was very attentive especially for a casual feeling restaurant.
- Pros: The food & the service

A group of us were hungry and wanted some Mexican food. The place was packed so we stumbled upon Bursa Kabab Mediterranean and we were so happy we did! The staff is warm and friendly and the food is delicious. We had the combo appetizer and a couple of entrees and all of it was really, really good. I will be a regular here because the service was excellent and the owner is super nice and knows the value of a customer! A++ for Bursa Kebab!
- Pros: Very Good Food
Great Turkish Food

I had high expectations and I was not disappointed. I am Turkish and am impressed with the food! I had the meze combination platter - ezme was great, ahydari exceptional, and the rest was very good too. Cigarette Borek was excellent as well. My friend was very impressed as well. The owner was very friendly.
For entree, I had a Iskender Kebab - it is not on the menu. Iskender kebab is usually with doner kebab meat, but they do it with adana kebab meat with the iskender sauce, and the pita underneath it was crisp, like they do it in Turkey. The Bursa mix kebab was great too.
Well done!
- Pros: great food, good service
- Cons: parking
Fine Turkish food

My favorite Turkish restaurant... It's run by a Jordanian. The staff are wonderful. The recently redone largely-blue interior looks great. A lot of people who aren't very familiar with Turkish food try the chicken sautee. They have the usual list of kababs, and the appetizer platter is a good way to sample Turkish food (highly recommended). Their rice is fibrous and done superbly. Some menu items that are hard to find elsewhere: mercimek kofte, a lentil mash; a spinach salad with falafels stuffed with goat cheese; kuneifi (a cheesy dessert wrapped in roasted/shredded phyllo, with just the right amount of sweetness); grilled vegetables served in a tomato sauce; a rich haydari or yoghurt dish can help douse, although Bursa's food isn't too spicy at all. Recent changes in their menu have meant that vegetable kababs/skewers are out :-( Good wine list and a longish dessert menu too. Lately, they have started doing lunch too. It's amazing how the weekend belly dance can be performed in the spaces between tables. They bring the dancer on for just a few minutes.
- Pros: Great ambience and service, and good Turkish food
- Cons: Could have a wait on some nights
