If you’re having trouble deciding where to eat tonight, maybe it’s time for a trip to this food court in Nebraska. The unassuming restaurant serves dishes from four different types of cuisine: Turkish, America, Mediterranean, and Chinese. Istanbul Food Court in South Omaha is definitely not like any other food court you’ve been to – it’s globally delicious!
From the outside, the building on South 42nd Street looks like it houses three separate restaurants.
Istanbul Food Court/Facebook There are three signs on the front, but make no mistake: this is one restaurant that serves Mediterranean, Turkish, American, and Chinese food, under the same roof.
Allow yourself a few minutes to look over the expansive menu.
Soner Soysal/Google Reviews What are you hungry for? There’s a little bit of something for pretty much everyone at this unique eatery.
There are incredible gyros and fantastic falafel.
Bryan Stickney/Google Reviews Salads, shish kebaps, and wraps all make an appearance, too.
If you’re looking for something a little more familiar, Istanbul Food Court also has burgers, fries, Philly steak sandwiches, grilled salmon, and breaded mushrooms.
Khana Safarnama/Google Reviews But why not expand your horizons with something new? The manti is great - the dumpling dish is popular in most parts of Asia. The Turkish version you’ll find here is beyond yummy.
The Chinese food only takes up a small part of the menu, but it’s no less worth a taste!
Jean Cappellano/Google Reviews The chicken or shrimp fried rice make for a filling, comforting meal.
Don’t even think of leaving without ordering a piece of baklava!
Alice B/Google Reviews It’s made from scratch right there in the kitchen, and it’s so flaky and syrupy and crunchy that you’ll probably want to order a backup piece. Try a Turkish coffee or tea, too - they’re real treats!
