It's a great place!!! Very nice staff and delicious tortillas with spinach Waiter Salih taught me how to dance Turkish dances. Prices are generally the same as everywhere else in Istanbul We ate too much and paid 2,200 lire for three (3 tortillas, kebab, lentil soup (it's just fire!!!), and drinks)

Only positive emotions. I arrived early, before lunch on a cold rainy and snowy day. They saw that it was frozen, and they put a heater next to it on purpose, which was very nice, since the room hadn't had time to warm up since it opened. I asked for the soup of the day, and a whole basket of fresh soft bread is served for free. The gozleme with cheese was the tastiest, one of the best I've ever eaten. The tea is excellent - strong, rich, truly Turkish. Yes, all restaurants have gone up in price now, but such a meal cost me 315 liras. For a tourist destination, I think this is normal. Moreover, I specifically compared it with other places in Balata, I have never seen such affordable prices anywhere nearby. Excellent price-quality ratio.

It's an incredible place. It's small and unremarkable, but the food, the level of service, the staff and the atmosphere feel like we're in the center of Istanbul. We visited as many as twice during our stay. The prices are the same as in all of Istanbul. We even bought tea, which was brewed for free, and we never saw it anywhere else, either in stores or on the market. We still brew at home:)
