A good restaurant, we treated you to tea and baklava and gave you a discount. We ordered Greek salad, assorted pizza, Alfredo pasta and Turkish manti. Everything is very tasty, but manti are not tasty, there is a lot of dough, little meat. I recommend the place

The reviews clearly do not correspond to reality . The portions are normal. There are smokers sitting around, at least the zones have been allocated, it is impossible to be with children. The busy street is very noisy because of this. the taste of kebab is 6 out of 10 dry , poor spread on a skewer, and even with hair ! They just smiled at the remark and that was it, shame and shame. Salmon 5 out of 10 is over-dried and has an unpleasant smell, caesar was brought with some kind of chemical sauce and without cheese. The waiter's tomatoes rolled off the plate during serving, nothing bothered him to put them on. Into the plate from his hand. A bonus is provided by deshmansky cottage cheese and half a thin flatbread . Total total fiasco! Minus more than three thousand lire and no pleasure. And the hair !!

The service was very fast, the Adana kebab was a bit dry, but tea was given as a gift. The prices seemed too high.

This is the second year in a row that we have visited this institution and we are very satisfied every time. Great location, delicious food, pleasant atmosphere. The service is especially pleasing: compliments are regularly brought, they carefully ensure that everything is cleared from the table on time, and dishes are served without delay. When ordering, they always ask if you need a spice, which is also very nice. The staff is super friendly, polite and attentive. A place that you really want to return to.

Have you been to this restaurant: + convenient location (close to public transport, park and attractions) + pleasant service (lots of Russian staff) +delicious meat +they gave me a liter of free water + they gave me free tea and a flatbread with a spread +extra large portions - slightly inflated prices because the cafe is designed more for tourists - We had to go for a walk and we couldn't take 6 mugs of tea.

On a family trip, we came across a place with good cuisine! We ordered pasta, salads— they were cooked deliciously. Special thanks to the staff: the waiter was as attentive and caring as possible (he closed the window when he felt a draft). The compliment from the restaurant was especially pleasant — juicy Turkish baklava. We recommend you to visit!

After reading the reviews, we decided to have lunch at this establishment, and a "barker" met us at the entrance and announced tea and baklava as a gift. We ordered chicken and mushrooms, while we were waiting for the order, the water bottles on the table were moved to another table, and we had to order water. When we finished the meal, no one was in a hurry to give us at least tea (and we really wanted it, because it was so cold outside). When we asked about tea, the waiter muttered something to a colleague and lost interest in us, waiting for him to appear for 20 minutes to ask for the bill. To be fair, they did bring us tea and baklava. However, when the bill arrived, the receptionist noted several times that the tip was not included in the bill, after my nod, he muttered something displeased and left. We left our tips in cash, but we didn't like this attitude. The dishes were delicious, not super, but quite decent, and a flatbread with a spread was brought as a gift.

The food is delicious, the staff is friendly, everything is cooked quickly. We didn't even make a big discount! I recommend friends. One of the disadvantages is the price, but in principle I did not come across cheap restaurants on my way.

The cocktail I drank here today was truly legendary. The passion fruit aroma is incredibly well-suited, neither too sweet nor too hard, in full consistency. The presentation is already a separate event. It was the reason I came to the place again!

Don't take the pizza, we tried a piece and returned it. It's not delicious. I don 't remember what the others ate , but the meat was very fatty and bland . I took rice with chicken, more or less

I had dinner at this restaurant yesterday. I ordered a lamb kebab. I knew that they make delicious kebabs in Turkey. But it's been a long time since I've tasted something so delicious. The mutton is amazing! I was also very pleased with the friendly service and the Russian-speaking staff. I give this restaurant 100 points out of 100! ❤

The cuisine didn't taste like much, the shawarma was a little dry, and the French fries that went with it were delicious! The sauce is free (ketchup, mayonnaise) - just like everywhere else in Istanbul. The beer is delicious, but expensive, for about 400 lire per glass.

At the end of the dinner, the waiter hinted very strongly that we should leave a tip, did not enter the amount on the terminal until he added the tip amount, which he considered fair. We refused to pay the amount he indicated, he took the card out of his hands, put it to the terminal, threw it on the table, turned away with the terminal, the numbers were almost invisible, somehow entered the PIN code, and the waiter left silently And the funny thing is that he asked for a tip for a visit in which he brought the wrong dessert and half an hour after we had eaten and were about to leave for the hotel. To sum up, I absolutely do not recommend this place.

The restaurant is located not far from Hagia Sophia and opposite the park. The restaurant is not big. There are tables inside, but not many outside under a canopy. Sofas and chairs are comfortable. The cuisine is delicious. The bill for 3 people was 3,650 Turkish liras. In rubles, you need to multiply by 2.9. We took: 2 beers of 0.5; 2 servings of French fries with crispy chicken (4-5 pieces cut into medium strips); A portion of pasta with cream sauce; 1 serving of fresh vegetable salad; 1 can of 0.33 Cola and 1 bottle of 0.33 sprite. Decide for yourself based on prices. The staff is polite and attentive. !!!!!! Faced with a problem!!! I almost never take dollars anywhere with any excuses. If you decide to go to Turkey, it's better to buy Euros. There are fewer problems. They are changed at every corner.

We were here 2 years ago several times and we really liked it. This year we decided to be nostalgic and came too. We didn't have lunch because we ate recently But we enjoyed the tea and the simply stunning dessert - chocolate souffle - we highly recommend it!! I took a porn star martini cocktail / well, it's a 3 plus)) it's rare that anyone does it right. The place is pleasant )

We went to this place believing the reviews. I don't understand why 5 stars, 3-4 would be more objective. The food is not super tasty, the prices are slightly overpriced, the service is not the fastest. Location yes, in the center, convenient.

It was 12.01.2025, we came in by chance while walking. I liked the cuisine especially the doner, the meat is soft and fragrant. The coffee is delicious , they serve tea or coffee, the staff is polite and attentive. It is convenient that you can pay in any currency . The price tag is lower than in other cafes a hundred meters away. They know English, which made me happy)

+convenient location at the exit from Gulnakh +Beautiful view of the fortress and Gulkhane Park +Cozy cafe (interior) +friendly staff +Clean inside + Very tasty + The staff advised to take one salad for two.Uh, to save money. That's what we did. We are full)) +Compliments: 6 cups of tea, 2 pieces of sweets, bread -/+it takes a long time to cook. Perhaps this is an advantage, and they cook for us "from under the knife", as in the best restaurants, but I'm not sure. -/+High prices. This is good for me, since there are no locals, etc. The two of them spent 1,100 lire Conclusion: This is a rest for tourists who have money))

Well, everything is very mediocre for that kind of money. I ordered a Doner on a plate, the meat was not from a spit, but some kind of sausage stuffing, I couldn't even eat it. I don't recommend it.

On the very first day of our stay in Istanbul, my husband poisoned himself with kebab in this restaurant (exactly here, we didn't eat anywhere else that day), And the prices are very high even for Istanbul. We went to much better looking and tastier restaurants, and it was cheaper there. To be fair, my fish was delicious.

It's a great place, especially when you come out of Topkapi tired as a dog, and you come across this place with upholstered chairs and a varied menu. The price tag is restaurant, of course, but it's worth it. Steak, for example, costs 1,750 lire, salad about 800 lire.. But since you came here, you can go out once, we live once!

Great restaurant! The price tag is average, cheaper than in many similar establishments. Pleasant service. Delicious, fast. On the main street, near the main attractions. We made a discount. We ordered coffee before eating, it was not included in the bill, which is very nice. In other establishments, where they said that tea was a gift, they always turned it off at the expense of 🤨 Hello Vasily! 😁
