Kosebasi brings decades of kebab expertise to Bagdat Caddesi. The Goztepe location maintains the same exacting standards as the original, with fresh-baked bread, exceptional lahmacun, and perfectly grilled Adana and Urfa kebabs that have made the name legendary.

Editor's Tip

The kebab benchmark. Fresh lahmacun and Adana kebab done right.

Insider Tips

  • Start with lahmacun - it's exceptional
  • The bread comes fresh from the oven throughout service
  • Ali Nazik is the sleeper hit for non-kebab option
  • Lunch is less crowded than dinner
