The entrance to the restaurant is on the left at the entrance to the Egyptian market, you can check with local merchants.
The service is at the highest level. Very tasty nut cookies. At the very beginning, it was a little strange that a snow-white tablecloth was laid on top of a not quite clean tablecloth with stains.
At 18:30, before closing, it was very quiet and secluded.
Interestingly, this restaurant is more than a century old (opened in 1901) and was visited by: the first president of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, John F. Kennedy, Queen Elizabeth II and Audrey Hopburn.
If you are in these parts, I strongly advise you to enjoy coffee in this historic place.

It is very pleasant to feel in the place of the stars who visited this restaurant. The food and service are good. No better or worse than other places. But the atmosphere is wonderful. Especially if you don't expect much.

A restaurant with a long history, more than 120 years old. The interior is peculiar, of course. But, the food and service are top notch! To eat where the Father of the Turkish people himself ate is unforgettable!

If you don't visit, you won't lose anything. Michelin was given to another restaurant, or it was a long time ago. The kitchen is nothing remarkable, the service is at the dining room level.

The kitchen is very good. Even when you take a simple eggplant salad, it begins to seem that eggplant is actually the most delicious vegetable. There is no special exotic in the menu, but the mainstream of national cuisine has been brought to perfection.
It closes at 19 o'clock.

Be sure to visit this place. It's very atmospheric. The food is delicious, the check is average. When you realize that these dishes were eaten by people 50, 100 years ago, you realize that you have touched history. I highly recommend sea bass in parchment, lamb kebab with eggplant puree. The service is included in the Bill. The average check for 3 without wine is $ 50. It is quite normal for delicious food, good view and history

I came in by accident and they found a place for me, although later I read that the tables are only at lunchtime and by prior reservation. The menu is very restrained, but there is a selection of wines. I recommend it to those who first of all need to feel the atmosphere of Istanbul at the beginning of the 20th century.
