Istanbul Shish Grill: Turkish Charcoal Cooking in Willesden Green
On Walm Lane, Istanbul Shish Grill brings Turkish grill traditions to a neighbourhood restaurant built around choice and convivial dining. Charcoal cooking anchors the menu, complemented by hot and cold starters, house specialities and platters designed for sharing.
For diners exploring beyond a familiar kebab order, the house specials offer a useful starting point. Iskender sits alongside Adana kofte with yoghurt and sauce, while lamb and chicken Sarma Beyti provide further expressions of Turkish cooking. Soups, salads, seafood and vegetarian accompaniments broaden the selection.
Inside, green upholstered banquettes, dark tabletops and colourful decorative details give the dining area a distinctive character. The layout lends itself to a meal with friends or family, with sharing platters offering a natural centrepiece for the table.
The restaurant also caters to a quicker visit, with wraps, doner and burgers among the options available through its online ordering service.
Istanbul Shish Grill’s appeal is straightforward: a broad Turkish menu with charcoal cooking at its heart, and the flexibility to suit anything from a casual lunch to a shared evening meal.
