A very pleasant place with a real Turkish atmosphere. We ordered meat — it was cooked perfectly: juicy, fragrant, with a rich taste, you can feel the quality of the products and the right spices. I would like to mention the service separately — attentive and friendly staff, everything is served quickly and with care. And at the end, we were treated to apple tea — it was especially pleasant and added comfort to the whole evening.

As soon as you step into the place for the first time, you already feel the difference. The atmosphere, the decoration and the Ottoman concept are really very successful; one feels as if one is in history and not in an ordinary restaurant. The lighting, table layout and attention to detail are very pleasant. Especially for those who like to take photos, every corner is beautiful separately. As for the food, he definitely passes the class in terms of taste. Everything we ordered was fresh, warm and carefully prepared. The meat is in full consistency, the appetizers are very tasty and the portions are also very satisfying. It appeals to both the eye and the stomach and Jul Presentations are also very stylish and clean.

As someone who loves seafood, I was really pleased. The fish was fresh, the appetizers were delicious and the presentation was quite attentive. The employees were interested and friendly, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. It was above my expectations in terms of price–performance. A place I would like to come again, I would definitely recommend it.

Excellent restaurant with national cuisine. Hearty breakfasts, a good selection of dishes, a menu in three languages. Traditional Turkish interior. There are several separate halls on the ground floors of the buildings and a common large "veranda" on the street. There are dishes on the fire, coffee on the sand, hookah. The portions are large. Attentive staff. We will be happy to visit more.

It's a wonderful restaurant. Friendly staff. Sometimes they arrange a whole performance with the serving of dishes, which is definitely uplifting. The check is moderate. The main thing is delicious!

The food is like everywhere else, but more expensive, as in other types of entourage restaurants. And of course, do not believe when they tell you about free tea and discounts, there is nothing even close to that, tea is 50 lire in the bill. They also added an extra dish to the bill, they were very surprised that we noticed, and they didn't bring the change, although we had been packing for quite a long time. Keep this in mind when paying.

Delicious food, and what a wonderful tea with kiwi and barberry! In Istanbul, there are rarely affordable prices, here it is both satisfying and quite inexpensive. We advise everyone! The staff brings gifts of treats and pours delicious tea! Atmosphere - 🔥🔥

In Kumkapi, the permits are a must-stop restaurant for everyone who wants to eat fish incredibly fresh cooking really makes a difference in the exact concept and delicious appetizers are both very diverse and all daily and carefully prepared shrimp kalama and fish varieties separately you get the taste of the sea, not the wonderful smell of the sea, and the friendly atmosphere reflects the spirit of the sand door, definitely an address we will come back to

A real Turkish flavor with songs, dances and cooking shows on the street. The food is delicious, but it's better not to take wine. Disgusting semi-sweet nouname wine. Although probably everywhere in Turkey, wine is about nothing...

It's a great place where pleasant music is played, friendly staff works, and live music artists often perform. It is important that even in cool weather you can sit outside, the guys have thought of heating, allowing you to comfortably stay outdoors.
