About The Ottoman Grill

Tuck into a generous Turkish banquet in Glenelg—warm bread baked on-site, smoky charcoal skewers, and pistachio-laden baklava to finish. Regulars head straight for the multi-course spread, which kicks off with house-whipped beetroot, carrot, and hummus dips alongside pillowy slices straight from the oven. Plump chicken and lamb skewers arrive tender off the flame, matched with seasoned rice and crisp salads before ending on crisp pastry and tea.

  • Multi-course shared banquet: A multi-course spread featuring in-house baked bread, dips, flame-grilled skewers, and sweet baklava.
  • Fresh bread and dips: Fresh bread baked on the premises paired with house-made beetroot, carrot, and hummus spreads.
  • Welcoming group dining: Spacious dining that smoothly accommodates large family celebrations, mobility scooters, and high chairs.

    The venue comfortably welcomes multi-generational family milestone dinners, birthdays, and parties with ample group seating.

    Recently, 30 of my friends joined me to celebrate my birthday with a banquet. The food, as always, was delicious and Omar and his staff were just wonderful.

  • Thoughtful Accessibility for Families

    Staff readily reconfigure dining room layouts to accommodate guests with mobility scooters, wheelchairs, and high chairs.

    Staff happily assisted with making space for the scooter even though it was large and cumbersome. And the highchair came out as soon as we mentioned it.

  • Authentic Turkish Atmosphere and Artistry

    Traditional ceramic patterns, handmade pottery, and nostalgic regional cooking evoke the atmosphere of Istanbul and Cappadocia.

    It's a must to check out the handmade pottery, fantastic craftsmanship, absolutely beautiful.
