This was on my list for quite some time as it's a well known restaurant that was meant to be a world renowned experience. Left a little disappointed. The menu was good, a little more basic than expected but still had a good choice of Turkish and surrounding food with decent pricing. Interior of the restaurant wasn't anything special with an outdated style of golf and cream giving it a cheap feel compared to another restaurant we visited the night before. The staff were great at service, but when we ordered they had bought a selection of small starters which we didn't know we were paying for, we chose a random three and found out at the end that it was charged. Food didn't take too long to come. And the main I ordered was mostly good with the meat cooked to my liking. I started questioning the pricing however since it did seem overpriced for what we had. Plus they charge a high service charge! Overall not recommended for the food. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person ₺1,000+ Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

Coming to this restaurant you have to expect that you’re coming in for a show (good vibes and they try to make a show with the food you order and there is a drummer inside that will come and drum for you; ofcourse will ask you to tip him and won’t leave until you give him some money lol) but if you want a really good and tasty meal there definitely a lot of better places for much cheaper prices. I recommend because they do put on a good show Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person ₺500–600 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5

This restaurant has been an absolute experience. From the staff spreading good vibes all the time to the sensational food which tasted absolutely fantastic. We had Begendili Kebap (Aubergine Puree With Meat) and a mixed meat plate. The begendili kebab was absolute amazing. I can absolutely recommend. The meat was perfect and the puree was so tasty. Prices are quite high but it is absolutely worth it. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person ₺200+

Exelent!!! Must try, before leaving Istanbul. Havaist bus number 12 for airport close by Service Dine in Meal type Other Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Great quality food, well seasoned and the restaurant is very tasteful. Service was good, bathrooms clean and good prices compared to the states. Can’t wait to go again.
The food was great and portions were generous. The mixed mashawy for 4 was plenty for the 6 of us, the tabouleh was extremely fresh and all the dishes were great. The restaurant is on the pricier side and the waiters weren’t the nicest but I’d still definitely recommend it for the food.

The food here was not good and the sevice was the not the best. I have been to this restaurant about a year and a half ago and it was very good, but now it is terrible. None of the food was tasty, and a lot of it did not even taste as if it was freshly made. The food looked nothing like in the pictures which was very dissappointing. I believe the pictures have been edited as it looked so different. I also must mention that the food was extremely overpriced for what we paid for: 3000TL for 4 people! I do not recommend this restaurant at all and I think anyone is better off eating anything else. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person ₺700–800 Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2

Excellent food, best taste I had in my 10 days trip all over turkey. Very fast service. Marvellous presentation of dishes. Huge quantity of food. Bread is free. Rice had dry fruits abd raisins in it. I would highly recommend this restaurant. They charge service fee of 10% so no need to give tip. Prices are higher than other restaurants but trust me it is worth every lira.
