A ginormous, shiny, and bustling Green Lanes institution serving generous platters of charcoal-grilled meats to large groups and families.
Ordering Strategy
This place is built for groups; order a large mixed platter to share, but ensure you start with lahmacun for the table.
What to order
Lamb Ribs
Consistently cited as a standout on a menu where lamb 'comes diced, minced, from chops to ribs'; they are praised for being tender, smoky, and melting off the bone.
Mixed Platter
The ideal choice to sample 'kebab in any formation or combination you can divine.' Portions are 'more than adequate' and come with generous servings of salad and hot grilled pita.
Pide
Described as 'Turkish pizza,' this dish can be topped with various lamb preparations and is 'frequently drizzled with hot butter' for a rich, comforting experience.

Good to know
There are two 'Diyarbakir' restaurants on the same street—this is the larger, more modern one at 52-53 Grand Parade. It is an alcohol-free restaurant, so order Ayran.
