Very good food, fair price and service. Not so many places there I would to come back but this is definitely worthy to come back and taste something else. Including good house wine for good price.

We had the chef's special which was absolutely fantastic! The fried ice cream was the pinnacle of a very very nice meal. The waiters were very friendly and not pushy! Also: underground palace! Love it

Great food, great service, great prices for foreigners! Staff is so lovely - if you are not sure what to eat, ask for recommendation, they speak English!

Make sure you taste the grilled steak medallion served on a marble plate with tasty exotic sauces. This place is one of the hidden treasures of the city. We enjoyed the fabulous ambiance.

There are a bunch of these generic restaurants in Istanbul right next to each other in tourist locations. It's okay but nothing special.

İlk defa geldim ama son olmayacak, çok keyifli çok temiz ve nezih bir mekan. Çalışanları muhteşem, özellikle Mehmet Bey inanılmaz ilgili.

Mutlaka cevizli kuzu, pideli güveç, kuzu sırtı denenmeli, tatlıda sufle gerçekten çok iyi... Sultanahmette Böyle güzel mekanlar olduğunu bilmiyordum...
DevochkaseveraOctober 25, 2015
Отличное заведение. Соотношение цена-качество👍🏻. В бистро чаевые не включены, в ресторане включены. За маленькой дверкой в ресторане таится невероятное... Раскопки 300 века до н.э.

Стоит брать кебаб микс! Его хватит и на троих! Сразу сможете попробовать всё! А крылышки из него просто бесподобны
