I’ve actually ordered from Istanbul Express a whole bunch over the past few months via a food delivery app and the food is always nice and warm, packed neatly away with all four of their sauces.

I was in the area this time round and decided to stop by. The restaurant was relatively quiet, with the tables about 1/4th full. I ordered the beef doner lunch set and a sutlac as dessert. The waiter was very polite and food was brought to my table relatively quickly, armed with their classic sauces in squeeze bottles for me to add at my own discretion.

The beef doner itself was a bit on the salty side but it was delicious nonetheless. My favorite part of the lunch was definitely the rice - not plain rice, flavorful with yellow rice specks littered throughout.

The sutlac itself was served in a cold brown bowl, just like the menu photo. A classic traditional Turkish dessert, it was a good balance between the rice and pudding without being overly sweet.

Honestly, the restaurant offers a good bang for the buck, especially for someone looking for a lunch quick fix. Hope it lasts the restaurant drought COVID has swept through Wanchai - it’s definitely a keeper!
