This was a wonderful local restaurant off the tourist circuit. We went on a Friday night and our party of four were the only westerners in this 2 story restaurant. Great food and very reasonably priced. Friendly service and a very nice atmosphere. The staff treated us like they were really pleased to have us as guests. We had the... More

We reserved a table for 20 people, everything was arranged perfectly. The 4 chicken in salt were really a nice show, which all our guests could enjoy. The starters are amazing, for vegetarians too. Truly recommend this place.

My wife and I ate here our first night in Istanbul and we were impressed. My wife is vegetarian and I am not so we ordered many mezzes and main dishes off of their menu. The ezme was particularly good as well as their minced lamb kebab. Would definitely go again.

Pre-book and pre-order the one meter kebab and you have a great dinner at a very local place at very reasonable price. Well worth the visit, happy to go there again!!

We make the reservation in advance and was at this restaurant for dinner last week. We were warmly greeted and directed to our table. The restaurant was fulled. We had pre-ordered the bake salted chicken and it was awesome. We ended with fantastic kunefe dessert. We really enjoyed our dinner and the restaurant gave us a small present.
