The baklava is amazing. I have actually seen a lady (I think it is the owner's wife) making the baklava on several occasions. They carry Turkish necessities along with some interesting items like "Turkish coffee sets". I have been shopping with them for over a year now and have never had an issue. Highly recommended for Turkish food/groceries and good quality meat. —OneLove

We found a couple interesting items to try, and plan to go back to try some of the prepared dishes for lunch one day soon. —DottieHoffmann


2011-10-21 15:14:53   i love this place, and i can honestly say i love the people in it, too! i've known both fatih and zeliha for over ten years now, and they are some of the finest people in rochester. everything in the store is a grade above anything else you will find in rochester and the food is always fresh and of high quality. please continue to shop at the istanbul market as these people deserve every penny! also, they just opened a store near marketplace mall called the international food market, and it's even better than the one above. it's located at 376 jefferson ave. much love,

After driving from south of Buffalo, we pulled into the parking lot only to find that this store has been closed for quite some time. No problem...Matt Snow was kind enough to list their Jefferson Ave location on his post. Unfortunately, the true location of their other location is on Jefferson ROAD, not Ave. Our GPS came through for us and we soon were browsing the aisles of a very nice store much to the delight of our newest family member. —Ken
