The Ottoman: Turkish Restaurant

About The Ottoman: Turkish Restaurant

The Ottoman Rangiora serves Turkish food on High Street, with the kitchen focused on providing quality, consistent food that tastes great every time. The menu centres on genuine dishes like kebab and other Turkish specialties, alongside chargrill meals, pizzas, burgers and desserts, available for dine-in pickup, takeaway or delivery.

Customers can build their own kebab, salad, rice dish or chips box from a wide choice of fillings — chicken, lamb, mixed meat, falafel, mujver, halloumi or a mixed vegetarian combination — each loaded with fresh salads and house dips and sauces. Chargrill meals are freshly marinated and cooked over charcoal BBQ, served with rice, salad and a selection of dips, while the pizza menu offers a Turkish take on the format alongside Turkish-style burgers.

The Ottoman Rangiora offers online ordering for pickup or delivery, with orders manually confirmed and real-time updates on when food is ready, and also partners with Rangiora's own food delivery service, Takey, for home delivery.

The Ottoman Rangiora: Turkish Kebabs, Pizzas and Chargrill in Rangiora

The Ottoman Rangiora brings Turkish food to High Street, built around a simple philosophy: provide quality, consistent food that tastes great every single time. The kitchen prides itself on serving genuine dishes like kebab and other Turkish specialties, alongside a menu that stretches well beyond the classics.

Build your own, your way

Much of The Ottoman's menu is built around choice. Kebabs, salads, rice dishes (Iskenders), and meat-on-chips options all follow the same format: pick a filling — chicken, lamb, mixed meat, falafel, mujver, halloumi, or a mixed vegetarian combination of falafel and mujver — and it comes loaded with fresh salads, house dips and sauces. For anyone who can't decide, the Ultimate Kebab combines chicken, lamb, mujver and falafel into one wrap.

Chargrill, pizza and burgers

For a heartier meal, the chargrill meals feature freshly marinated meat cooked over charcoal BBQ and served with rice, salad and a selection of dips — including a Mixed Meats Chargrill Meal combining chicken, lamb and kofte. The pizza menu takes a Turkish spin on the format, with options like a Turkish Pepperoni Pizza and a Meat Lover Pizza loaded with lamb, chicken and pepperoni, alongside a vegetarian option. Turkish-style burgers round things out, including a beef, chicken, lamb donner, or vegetarian mujver and halloumi burger, all served with fries.

Sharing plates and dips

For sharing, The Ottoman offers Mezze Platters, grilled halloumi cheese, dolmas, sigara borek and a Mixed Dips Platter, alongside individual dips like babaganoush, hummus, jajik, beetroot and a spicy walnut ezme, all served with Turkish bread. To finish, the dessert menu includes baklava, Turkish delights, tiramisu, chocolate cake and a mixed berry cheesecake.
