Uludağ Kebapçısı Cemal & Cemil Usta

Uludağ Kebapçısı Cemal Cemil Usta

A popular local kebab shop opened in 1964, known as "Garaj İskender," offering a great alternative to the oldest historic brands.

Founded in 1964 by two brothers of Bulgarian descent, this shop is also known by locals as Garaj İskender because of its location opposite the old bus terminal. The signature dish is the butter-drizzled İskender kebab, made with meat sourced from İnegöl. When ordering, you can say "Sade" (no yogurt) or "Tek" (no yogurt or bread, just meat). The shop focuses on this single dish, paired with grape juice (şıra). It gets very busy during peak dining hours, with queues of up to half an hour, and it closes early, so a lunch visit is recommended. A portion starts at around 900 TL, but prices rise quickly, so refer to the shop's current menu. The main branch is located in Şirin Alley, just off Uluyol Avenue.
