Had breakfast twice here. Amazing, tasty food. Only place around that offers tea in pots. Polite staff. Homemade ayran, not supermarket.

A place where you can taste the most authentic Turkish breakfast🤤 We were here on a weekday afternoon and, despite the popularity of the place, we were able to get a table without prior reservation. What pleased me was the fast and prompt service. The table was filled with dozens of plates in just 10-15 minutes.👏🏻 As a new experience and an introduction to the local culture, Turkish breakfast is an excellent choice. I can't say that we liked absolutely everything we tried, but most of the goodies were happily swallowed by us. For those who are going to visit the institution, I will write an important note: there is a service fee of 10%. Compliments (such as tea and compote) are not included in the bill.

If you want to eat delicious and budget-friendly, then you are here. Large portions, you can eat one gozleme, I recommend it with potatoes or meat. Menemen is laid with a slide. A small kettle of tea costs 300 lire, a gozleme 350 lire, a Menemen 230, a glass of tea 60 lire. Turkish breakfast for two 2500. The staff is Russian-speaking, everything is fast and polite. And very tasty. Go, you won't regret it!

Excellent delicious breakfasts and friendly staff. They speak English well. Turkish pancakes are my personal favorite. There is smoking on the outdoor veranda, so I highly recommend non-smokers to stay in the interior of the restaurant. UPD November 2025: a year later we returned to this restaurant, met as dear guests, remembered us from last year, Special thanks to the host, very tasty food (they use eggs and vegetables from their farm). We have been there many times, we have developed very warm relations with some of the staff, Loai is a wonderful, friendly person 🫶🏼

We had a family breakfast today. The portions are decent. Menemen is the most delicious I've ever tasted in Istanbul! Very very tasty! The price is adequate. We had a la carte (not a traditional Turkish breakfast). It was released for 1,370 lire. I really liked the service. Nice guys work, caring and attentive to every guest. The head waiter is (probably) Merdan -top! A pleasant young man with a great sense of humor! He speaks Russian very well. I made our breakfast as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I would definitely recommend visiting this place!

the most pleasant place in Istanbul! A Russian-speaking waiter from Turkmenistan named Merdan created such an atmosphere of welcome that I would like to return here 50 more times, but unfortunately, there is not enough time, I will leave soon. We will definitely come back here at the end of the trip again! Merdan treated us to baklava and coffee and told us about the restaurant. an incredible man. He said he wanted to give more from the restaurant than to take from the customers. it is mandatory to visit. The breakfasts here are huge. We ordered for two and didn't eat until the end. The main thing is that they don't regret anything. if you will be at istiklal in the morning, be sure to come here for breakfast to Merdan

It was delicious and beautiful, and the staff was pleasant, asking how things were going, taking pictures, pouring tea and offering to add tortillas or spreadings. The portion is huge for one person, there are quite sharp positions, but everything is very nice and tasty. I recommend you to visit!

A delicious and atmospheric breakfast place I ordered a Turkish breakfast for one (I didn't see it on the menu, but I can ask for it), a huge amount of meze, delicious fried eggs with sausages, fresh bread and unlimited tea. Baklava and watermelon were brought as a compliment. The service was top-notch- they met me, helped me with the choice, constantly asked me if I liked everything and unobtrusively kept up the conversation on various topics. Additionally, I ordered coffee and juice. All together, 1010 lire was released. Definitely like it)

My family and I were delighted with the Turkish breakfast! The staff is very fast, friendly, will help with the choice and will tell you what to do and how to do it. The staff speaks both Russian and English. The breakfast is very hearty and delicious, and at our request, we added items that we particularly liked. They treated us to baklava and constantly took care of our comfort.

A very cool place to try the colorful Turkish breakfasts. 1,500 lire for two at the time of the visit May 2025. It was enough, even a lot, but we tried everything and realized what we liked and what we didn't like. In general, everything is very tasty! Everyone will find their own, that's for sure! It's cozy, especially on the terrace. The waiters speak Russian, some of them. The restaurant's service and dishes are a solid 5 out of 5! If you are in Istanbul, be sure to visit!

The best Turkish breakfast in the area. Three servings are enough for 5 people. Sooooo delicious. But the menu may vary slightly every day. The coffee and tea are delicious. It's better to come early. There are many tourists. But there is also a lot of space there, unlike many Istanbul cafes.

We've been here twice. I really liked the lemonades, I was just thrilled! It was for their sake that we returned a second time, although my companion also returned for the sake of pide. We were also treated to dessert. For some reason, the glass for lemonades was smaller on the second visit than on the first one, which was a little disappointing, but still very tasty. There is a Russian-speaking employee. The place is great, I recommend it.

Very tasty hot chocolate- 150 Lear, the tortillas that are given for free are quite satisfying and suitable for a full meal. The service is long, the waiters need to be caught with their hands so that they take the order. But the food is very decent, we ate enough and were amazed at less than 500 Lira.

They don 't say that juice is not included in breakfast , they just bring it and that 's it , and then the bill is plus 360 lira for two juices diluted with ice, the breakfast itself is tasteless , there 's really nothing to eat , I don 't advise . Plus 10% is included in the bill , and thanks to the imposed juices, plus 200 lira is obtained , the total for the "breakfast" is 4 k rubles.

A great place for breakfast, there is one big disadvantage, you need to book in advance or come to the opening itself so as not to stand in line. There are delays in service due to the large number of visitors.

It's a very cool place. Really tasty and rich. The cost of breakfast, like everything else in Turkey, has become a bit high. It is necessary to book a place precisely in advance, because many tourists know about this restaurant and it is not very easy to sit down without a reservation at any time.

There are always a lot of people. The food is delicious, but according to the Turkish tradition, the food itself is smaller than the plates))), so there is a drop in each serving. There are no alternatives in terms of quality and service in the district.

We found this place based on reviews and did not lose! A cozy place with a summer terrace and tables inside. We were a little worried that we didn't speak English well and didn't speak Turkish at all, but we were in for a pleasant surprise and our waiter Merdan (I hope I didn't make a mistake in the name) spoke Russian. The cuisine is very tasty, the traditional Turkish breakfast allowed you to experience very interesting taste sensations (especially hot pepper jam). We visited the institution twice, served us quickly, ate and the coffee was delicious. Here we had breakfast and the pleasant atmosphere created a good mood for the whole day.

A cozy, cozy and very atmospheric place in the heart of Beyoglu. Inside there are beautiful handmade ceramic products. The staff is very polite and attentive. The traditional national cuisine is beyond praise. A separate story is the Turkish breakfasts with many different appetizers for the main course. The main thing is not to give up, because the portions are very large

A great place in Istanbul for breakfast. They cook quickly. There are a lot of small saucers with something delicious and unusual. Pumpkin sweet things are generally fire, donuts with tahini paste too🔥 For two, it's right with a reserve, you won't go hungry)) At the beginning of August 2023, breakfast for two cost 600 liras (breakfast only comes from two people), tea is poured, and at the end they will also offer complimentary Turkish coffee (and not even for leaving this review :)). There are guys who speak Russian, they are very friendly. They accept Russian UnionPay. I will be happy to recommend it to my friends👍🏻

Large portions. Everything is delicious. I advise you to take a set breakfast for 2-3-4 people at a fixed price. In the photo, breakfast for 2 people. + Tortillas, tea is poured as much as you want, do not rush to take coffee. Turkish coffee is offered at the end of the breakfast as a compliment. On 06/05/2023, the cost of breakfast for 2 is 500 liras (about 20 euros). When visiting, keep in mind that you will be charged 10 percent for the service.
