Delicious, affordable, beautiful, located on Istiklal, there is a second floor with tables. At the time of April 2026, a meat patty with mashed potatoes and a cheese crust (a large portion, overeaten) it cost 450 lire, but there are dishes cheaper. If you are afraid of something spicy, it is better to clarify in advance at the distribution where it is spicy, because we once "burned ourselves" on some sharp green pepper))

Delicious food at reasonable prices for the tourist center. The interior is amazing. Chandeliers are like in a theater)))

I was left with an unpleasant impression of this place. There is a very long queue. The dishes are already reaching the table cold. When we were there, there wasn't even bread. The price does not match the quality. For the dishes in the photo, the exchange rate was 2600 rubles. You can walk a little deeper into the street and have a more budget-friendly and delicious meal. Dishes are counted inexplicably, not by weight. The ribs are piecemeal, but someone gets a larger size, someone gets a smaller one. The interior is beautiful, of course, but even so, I don't recommend this place, you'd better choose another one.

It's a good place! I came out of H&M, accidentally walked in here, and in fact, the dining room, you're picking up food on a tray. I paid with a QR code for whom it is important. I took chicken, lamb, eggplant, everything is relative but generally decent, so far the best of what I came across in two days. I really liked the drinks, take two or three at once, compote, juice. I wouldn't say it's too expensive for prices, it's fine

A good place to eat on a budget on Istanbul's most touristy and lively street. A wide selection of dishes. Friendly staff. The menu is in Turkish and Arabic, and can be easily translated using an interpreter.

I don't recommend it. The two of us went to eat, it cost about 550-600 lira. At the moment, around 1100-1200 rubles. And maybe not much for the local Arbat, but the quality... We had chicken soup (1 serving), köfte meat (1 serving), salad (1 serving), 2 teas, bread for free. The soup was half-cold, a shallow plate, and after 2 spoonfuls, the bottom was already visible Köfte - warmed up for 10 seconds when ordering, also semi-cold, the quality of the meat is not very good (there is something to compare it with) Salad - half-dried cucumbers with tomatoes and onions, nothing unusual Tea - as if brewed from a tea bag somewhere (a separate pain, because in all the other establishments that we visited, down to the simplest street eateries, the tea was the same Turkish, delicious) Bread is stale, in our opinion, yesterday's bread I recommend going to the Beyoglu station on the same Istiklal (which is a funicular, also known as tunel), on the other side of the Location there will be a Picnic Kofte & Piyaz restaurant, twice as cheap, and the quality is excellent, tea is free (like a compliment from a cafe)

Perfectly! There is a huge selection of dishes, including desserts, and the prices for the center of Istanbul are simply meager.

The food is delicious and fresh, always hot But due to the fact that this is a very tourist destination, the prices are too high. You can find a more budget-friendly one. But the place is great

A place for a quick snack, but it's expensive. A plate of rice with a cutlet and a glass of juice (natural, freshly squeezed) 540 lira, at the current exchange rate of about 1500 rubles.

In general, the canteen! But the canteen is delicious! All the dishes are delicious. The price tag is about the same as in a mid-level cafe. The convenience is that you don't have to wait for them to cook.

Not bad, well, the price tag is clear, which is why it still stands on the central shopping street, the monotonous kitchen is like in any other corner and courtyard. Only the price tag changes .
