Fodor's Expert Review Zübeyir Ocakbaşı

$$$ Beyoğlu Turkish

This ocakbaşı, or grill house, is popular for its delicious food, authentic feel, and especially lively atmosphere. The kebabs are cooked on a special grill over hardwood coals—part of the fun here is watching the chefs at work—and include some cuts of meat not found on the average kebab menu, such as kaburga (lamb ribs).
