• Turkish • Windsor

Booked 3 times today

Take a trip down to the vibrant Windsor end of the street and you’ll find a little piece of Turkey in the form of Marmara Restaurant, one of Australia’s longest-standing Turkish restaurants. Established all the way back in 1980, Marmara is well versed in serving up delicious grilled meats, mezze, Turkish pides and more to the people of Windsor. We recommend heading over and trying one of two banquets on offer, a fine selection of Marmara's finest home made dips, side dishes, seafood and grills including iskender, lamb fillets, chicken fillets and lamb cutlets. Vegetarians will find plenty of choice too. Amazing colourful and cosy ambience unlike any other Turkish restaurant.
