An atmospheric place with a cool ayran It's a very popular place for dinners: when we arrived, there was only one empty table left, so I think it's better to plan a visit here in advance. In general, our goal that evening was baklava, which we liked here in principle. I would also like to mention ayran, which is a very, very tasty drink, which for some reason I liked especially here.😅 The customers at the next table were obviously ordering more aggressive dishes. We really liked their original presentation.

We really liked everything in this restaurant.We were looking for a place where we could taste Turkish cuisine in a good performance. By the way, the salad with hummus, which Yildirim advised us, was really delicious, and on a second visit, we took it again. The food in the restaurant is interesting, and even the music is relaxing. As for prices, they are overpriced everywhere in tourist places. We recommend you to visit.

We read so many rave reviews, we went here, but we didn't have time to get hungry yet, it was about 10:30, we decided to get tea, coffee and something for tea, coffee, so we were just asked to go out and go to another place. What kind of restaurant is this? It was almost completely empty at that time, we went and sat down at a table, and instead of offering and selling something, they decided to just get rid of it. Good service, you can't say anything! It is unlikely that the owners of the restaurant read these reviews, which means everything will remain at the same level. So it's better to just go somewhere else.

There's no kitchen. Meat has no taste. However, the fresh vegetables and tortillas were not bad. But the staff!!! I don't want to write negativity. I'll say one thing - I don't recommend it to anyone. If you don't want to feel like an empty place and remember for a long time when you managed to get into debt as a waiter at this restaurant, don't go there.

A picturesque place. The guide brought us here to take a break over a cup of delicious coffee. In addition to the coffee, which was really excellent, we tried almost all the desserts👍

We were at the restaurant at lunchtime. They found us a table. But! The restaurant is designed to serve large tourist groups. As a result, half of the order was simply not delivered to us. Considering that there are a lot of restaurants nearby with about the same menu and price level, next time we preferred the neighboring one. The restaurant is marked in the restaurant ratings, but the impressions remained contradictory.

Well, as in all of Istanbul, the prices are not cheap , the cuisine is average . The staff is like in all Turkish restaurants - the main thing is to promote the client))

The restaurant is only a hundred meters from Hagia Sophia, but thanks to the thick marble walls and the courtyard with a fountain, it is quiet here, as if in the residence of a pasha. The concept is "modern Ottoman cuisine": oysters marinated in saffron sauce, juicy lamb tail kebab served on a pillow of smoky melted bulgur, and pistachio sultan baklava with ice cream with mahep. In the evenings, live oud plays, and the sommelier offers rare Kahramanmarashi wines that emphasize the spicy character of the dishes. Thanks to the attention to detail and sincere hospitality, the establishment has earned an almost perfect rating and a reputation as a "secret treasure" of the historic district.

A very good restaurant for the interior, service and of course the kitchen! And after most of Sultanahmet's eateries, it's just paradise! It's really a restaurant, but the prices are lower than in most places with swinging tables and chairs, where they just fry fish for you. To the main thing: we took a salad with hummus. Good. Tasty. But when the tandoor lamb was brought (its picture is in the very center of the main menu) - people are a bomb!!! It's the tastiest mutton I've ever eaten. My other half was squeaking from a chicken kebab. Plus tea and rice pudding and 930 liras for small things. It's a gift for the really delicious dishes in the area! The restaurant was recommended by the guide Nina from the Sabri Guide Team, whom we found on the tripster. Special thanks to her for that. By the way, the tour was also a bomb.

We ate delicious mutton. Beautiful presentation, courteous staff. We were served very quickly. Separately, I would like to mention the salad with hummus, it is very tasty. It is unusual that in addition to olive oil, there is also pomegranate syrup on the table, it is even tastier with it)

Waiters and hostesses are all like Janissaries from the Magnificent Century, who knows who will understand))) the atmosphere is appropriate, everything is authentic furniture, dishes. They brought a compliment from the institution so that they would not be bored, then they wanted to please so much that they mistakenly brought an order from a nearby table, and they were not confused that the order was for two, and I was alone. It was very nice. My order arrived just as quickly. The food is worthy of the sultan himself, I will not describe it, you need to try. Only homemade wine by the glass. Pink is very decent. I don't recommend red wine by the glass, it's a bit stingy. If you like red, then only a bottle of local Shiraz. Local tea is required for sweets.

In general, it is quite tasty, but it seemed to me that the price is set and does not correspond to the balance of the quality of the dishes and their price. A purely tourist option with show-offs.

A great place in Istanbul! We visited this restaurant for the first time in 2019-2020 and we really liked it. Having arrived in Istanbul this year, we just couldn't help but visit this place. Excellent cuisine (steak with cheese sauce is just great!), compliments from the establishment, friendly atmosphere. I would also like to thank the employee of the restaurant Ali for his sensitive and attentive attitude to the guests! We will definitely come back and recommend it to our friends!

It is a great place to eat when you are hungry in Sultanahmet. Although the prices are slightly higher, the taste of the dishes is far above this difference.

The price tag is very high, and the baklava did not go in, there is a lot of sugar, I took it elsewhere, it's just a pleasure. They went a little higher and tastier, and the price was also pleased. And so you have to try everything, it tastes good.
