Istanbul Take Away food hygiene rating
Takeaway/sandwich shop · Edinburgh (City of)
Istanbul Take Away passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the takeaway met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.
The rating: Pass
The rating dates from 1 July 2024, more than 2 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.
