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

We came based on the reviews and didn't regret it, we probably couldn't have eaten a whole breakfast. We took menamen with meat, menamen with cheese and chopped vegetables (olives are a bonus) yogurt with eggplant (separate 👍) and tea. They brought baklava as a gift (I managed to take a picture of one, and my wife ate the second one). Special thanks to the waiter Merdan, who suggested the menu, and most importantly speaks Russian. Very fast service.

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

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!

Another place in Istanbul with classic Turkish breakfasts all day. There are a lot of people, there is a constant flow. The cafe is popular. Everything is cooked well, quick service, unlimited tea. I can't say that it was the best breakfast, but overall it wasn't bad. The bread basket for breakfast here is quite modest, and the egg dish is one hot (scrambled eggs) and one cold. So, it is for a man that this breakfast may not be very satisfying.

Excellent breakfasts, for a family of three, ordered a combo lunch (for 2 people), ate too much, everything is very tasty. the staff is friendly, speaks Russian, the service is fast, about 5-10 minutes and everything was already on the table. if you do not want to spend a lot of time eating and at the same time have a delicious meal, Then you'll go straight here.

Well, very tasty Turkish breakfasts! A Russian-speaking administrator named Merdan told us about the composition of the breakfast, which included many, many different dishes. It was prepared quickly, despite the full landing. We will definitely come again!

A lovely cozy restaurant!!! Very tasty and varied breakfasts. And the staff is beyond praise! Everyone is so kind, friendly, and helpful that there's nowhere else to go. There are also Russian-speaking waiters, although they speak English quite normally. In the evening of the same day, when we were having breakfast here, I got a little lost. I went inside, even though the place was obviously closing. She asked for help and directions to my hotel. The waiter recognized me, took the time not only to show me where to go, but also escorted me. I will definitely come here again on my next visit to Istanbul!!! I recommend it to everyone!

It's a wonderful place! We tried Pita with grilled meat and cheese on the advice of the waiter (he spoke Russian, by the way) - it was satisfying, tasty and inexpensive. We were treated to delicious baklava, I advise you to try it! I liked the atmosphere and the playlist separately, and I was impressed. Be sure to visit this place for the famous Turkish breakfast or just if you want to have a delicious meal!

A great place not only for breakfast, but also for dinner. Merdan is the best employee. He explained everything in detail about the menu, dishes and the concept of the establishment. The food is very tasty, both the breakfasts and the main menu. I strongly recommend it. Very friendly staff. They also served various snacks and baklava.

It's divine - both the food and the attitude towards the guests! Everything will be shown and told in Russian, baklava, tea and tortillas will be brought as a compliment, everything will be quickly removed from the table, and all this without cheating! We will come again ourselves, and we recommend it to you. The photo shows our receipt. Whether it's expensive or acceptable is up to everyone to decide for themselves.

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.

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)

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 🫶🏼

Very tasty breakfasts! My choice: simit, menemen (with cheese), gozleme with cheese and spinach. Super! Very nice, atmospheric, polite staff, absolutely no disadvantages. And I recommend that you do not take the "Anatolian Breakfast" complex, but choose your own menu according to your taste. You won't regret it! Get the maximum taste pleasure

A divine Turkish breakfast, very tasty tortillas with cheese. We had breakfast here every day while we were in Istanbul. It's better to come early, otherwise there are already a lot of people after 10, and you don't have to sit down on the street. There are a lot of tables inside, so everything will fit)

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.
