Great place! We highly recommend it!)
We found it by rating on the maps, we did not expect it to be so friendly, tasty and atmospheric.
Below is a little more detailed:
The place is small, inside a cozy street, easy to find.
There is a terrace and seats inside the restaurant.
You can pay in cash and by card (including SBP).
The places are comfortable, everything is clean and cozy.
The food is given away quickly. The choice of dishes is large.
It's delicious here, the price-quality ratio.
The owner, Massa, and his team are very friendly and cohesive, while the service is level and unobtrusive.
For me, it is always a good indicator if there are a lot of people in a restaurant in a tourist area. That's exactly how it is here. At the dinner hour, only 1 small table for two people was available. People in large companies stood in line to eat.
The staff is attentive to the children, supports the conversation and organized a national dance to the theme music.
We recommend it!)
Of the minuses: French fries require the attention of the cook) are a little damp. But this is not critical for us, it is better to eat meat in Istanbul)

It 's very atmospheric , clean , and it 's so delicious ! We took 9 dishes, all the tastiest. The cocktail is high , the hookah is fragrant , smoky ! The dishes were brought within 15 minutes , the service is excellent!
Let's try breakfast tomorrow!
There was a full landing, which speaks to the reputation of the restaurant. A heat gun is working on the veranda. Warm , cozy , delicious ! The owner of the restaurant greets you at the entrance , which is captivating from the very first minutes !
Nizhny Novgorod recommends it! teşekkür etmek!

The magnificent Iskander kebab has exceeded all expectations! This dish of Turkish cuisine turned out to be a real gastronomic discovery. The most tender grilled meat combined with juicy cheese and signature sauce creates an explosion of flavor. And what a salad bar there is! A real buffet of fresh vegetables, herbs and a variety of snacks. Everyone can assemble their own perfect set of additions to the main course. The portions are impressive in size, and the quality of the ingredients speaks to the high standard of the establishment. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to try authentic Turkish cuisine. After such a meal, you can only sigh blissfully and plan your next visit!

A good place, beer for 120 lire, cheaper than anywhere else. The food is delicious, fast and simultaneous serving of dishes, Meze is brought free of charge when ordering food. There is a hookah. The music is not only Turkish, but also European. A very pleasant place.
They don't cheat, they don't add anything extra to the bill, they checked them, how many beers they ordered, so much was in the bill. Everyone from our company was given a present when they left, it was very pleasant.
Hospitable and helpful staff and host.

Undisputed 5 stars.
The waiters are efficient, but not fussy. Friendly, but not intrusive. The kitchen is excellent, everything is done with both the mind and the heart. It is only advisable to correct the menu: delicious small cutlets of chopped meat in sauce cannot be translated either as "meatballs" or as "meatballs". This offends this dish. :))
A pleasant impression on a tourist intimidated by different guidebooks is provided by free compliments from the restaurant served before the main dishes (flatbread with different sauces) and after those (tea and sweets). The bill will only include what you ordered, and at the price you saw on the menu.
The bill will be served to you quickly, but so that you have time to relax after a delicious meal. It shows a respectful attitude towards the guest.
Prices, given the location of the restaurant, the quality of cuisine and service, small treats from the institution, are very humane.
In one phrase: "Thank you, everything was very tasty!" :))
PS. One of the dishes is cooked with guests under ... "Kalinka"! :))

For the child, the owner of the restaurant always provided meals for free.
There was an opportunity to pay by SBP, which is very convenient at the moment.
They also brought welcome bonuses and tea to the dishes every time.
Some of the staff speaks Russian.
Prices are slightly higher than the average in Istanbul, by 10% according to my observations.

For 4 full days in Istanbul, we managed to visit about 10 establishments, including a place with 2 Michelin stars (Deralia). I can say one thing, the Mass topped our list - 👍💪.
Reasons:
1. Very tasty food (we ordered a branded pot of meat for 2 people + salad + beer + dessert + tea)
2. Serving dishes for 5+. The way the meat pots are served is a whole short show - the whole restaurant is watching);
3. The service is very attentive + pleasant treats - we were treated to bread rolls + sweets + 2 glasses of beer);
4. On the evening when we had dinner, we met the owners themselves - very nice guys, they persuaded us not to leave and wanted to treat us with something else, but there was a risk of bursting)
4. Very reasonable price for Istanbul
Dinner cost us 2,900 lire for two, while the quality of the food is the highest, everything is under the knife (for comparison, dinner at a Michelin restaurant cost us 6,000 lire, in ordinary establishments in the neighborhood the average check was 2700-3200 lire)
In general, I believe that the quality of the food / service / sincerity of the establishment is significantly higher than the competition for the same money!!!
Highly recommend!
On the final evening (04.01.25) we are going to have dinner there!!!)

We were looking for a place nearby based on reviews, and found this restaurant. I really liked this place! Delicious food, really large portions, first they brought us a starter with tortillas as a gift, then our dishes. We were very surprised by the huge portions. Then we were presented with as many as 3 simits with jam, pasta and nutella, we ordered them first, and in the end we were also presented with 3 servings of tea and 3 pieces of baklava, we were pleasantly shocked and generous by the owners of the establishment.
I can say that so far this is one of the best places in the area, the price is much more loyal than other places, and the portions are large, the food is fresh and delicious. I recommend it from the bottom of my heart!
Very comfortable sofas, there is a canopy from the sun.
