Istanbul Palace

Located in the heart of Sarstedt, Istanbul Palace offers an authentic Turkish dining experience that transports you straight to the bustling streets of Istanbul. This charming restaurant specializes in traditional Turkish cuisine, serving flavorful dishes that are both hearty and crafted with care.

Guests are welcomed by a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for intimate dinners or casual gatherings. The aromas of freshly prepared spices and slow-cooked stews immediately awaken your palate. Their menu showcases classic favorites such as the rich, comforting Linsensuppe (Mercimek), a vibrant lentil soup that is both nourishing and bursting with subtle spices.

The fresh salads add a refreshing contrast, from the crunchy and tangy Krautsalat to the robustly flavored Thunfischsalat, each crafted with crisp, garden-fresh ingredients that complement the heartier mains. For those seeking lighter fare, the variety of mixed salads, including both small and large options, ensure there is something delightful for every appetite.

No Turkish meal is complete without dessert, and Istanbul Palace excels here with iconic sweets like the flaky, honey-soaked Baklava and the indulgent, syrup-drenched Künefe, a heavenly cheese pastry that melts in your mouth, perfect for sharing or savoring solo.

One recurring guest review from Helen Ingvarsson encapsulates the essence of the experience: “Lovely REAL Turkish restaurant with great food and huge portions.” The generous servings ensure that every dish not only satisfies hunger but also leaves you with a lasting impression of Turkish hospitality.

While the restaurant currently accepts cash payments only—a small inconvenience that prompted a quick trip to the bank for some patrons—this detail in no way diminishes the genuine charm and incredible flavors Istanbul Palace delivers.

If you’re seeking a place where traditional Turkish cuisine is served with passion and authenticity, Istanbul Palace on Steinstraße 39 is a must-visit culinary gem in Sarstedt.
