If you are looking for great Hummus or an awesome Falafel, look no further than Bosphorus Istanbul Cafe for what I think is Indianapolis only Turkish restaurant.
If you are looking for great Indianapolis fine dining is a funky purple house near Fletcher Place (just outside downtown Indianapolis) this might just be your restaurant. Named for a 20 mile long strait that joins the Sea of Marmara with the Black Sea, the real Bosphorus separates Europe from Asia....ok enough about the geography of the near east...let's talk about the food!
No Indianapolis menu guide would be complete without including the Hummus and Feta Chees Plate appetizers. Better yet, start your party with the Appetizer combo that also includes stuffed grape leaves, tabouli, babaganush, borek and and eggplant salsa.
As an Indianapolis Date Restaruant why not impress him (or her) with you vast cusine knowlage by ordering the Iskender or Ispankli Tavuk? This is a great local Indianapolis Restaurant. It's not quite an Asian Restaruant and is kind of like an Indianapolis Greek Restaurant but ...different. I'm really happy to add Bosphorus to my Indianapolis Dining Guide.

I have enjoyed many dinners at Bosphorus. (Full disclosure: I'm a Fletcher Place homeowner and live a block away, but even so, it's very easy to find this place.) The food is good. Different from the norm, but not so different that you can't relax and enjoy the experience. The host/owner is an amazing host. For me, one telltale sign of a place's quality is the level of obvious pride that the owner has in his restaurant. If he (or she) is proud to welcome you there, 99 percent of the time you are well on your way to a good experience. Anyway, try this place. Be open minded. Bring an energetic group - they are welcome. Drive (or ride your bike) a little off your normal route. Hope you enjoy as much as we have.
