Cafe Istanbul

Modern and appealing, with touches of exoticism that sometimes evoke an old Marlene Dietrich flick on the late, late show, this is the most savory spot in Manchester for Turkish cuisine. Decorated in a vague Mediterranean style, it draws a hip, young crowd, many who have traveled abroad and are in search of those exotic flavors discovered in their travels. The selection of meze (Turkish appetizers) alone is worth the trek here, and the wine list is extensive but without price gouging. Try any of the lamb kabobs (the house specialty) or the grilled seafood.
