We ate here twice in our stay and love the place. The prices are much better than what you find on the street next to it. They didn’t pressure us to come in like the other street. They were friendly and teased my 11 year old son a lot. He loved it. In fact it came back the second time we asked if my son‘s favorite antagonist was available and he wasn’t so they sent a picture of my son shaking his fist to him. It made his trip. The prices are extremely reliable they don’t try to sneak food into the bill and run honest business which is a big relief compared to a lot of the restaurants that we found out there.

The food was amazing. Very fresh and delicious. We ordered an Eggplant dip from the cold starters with the thin pita bread. For Main dishes we got Prawns, Roasted Fish with veggies (stew style) and the vegetable casserole. We paired the meal with the house wine which complemented the whole dinner very well. We ended the dinner with Turkish Black tea. I loved this place. We went there two nights and got the same dishes because we loved fhem so much. Will be going there another night to try their whole grilled fish plates. Memo was our server and he was very helpful and friendly.

Had the sea bass, it was fresh and tasty. Reasonably priced for the area. The Adana Kebab was very juicy. We ordered two Turkish teas but they didn't appear to charge us for this, (Though there was a tax of 125.40 lira, but perhaps this was a service charge?). They even gave us a further cup of Turkish tea for each of us and a piece of Baklava.

We stopped here for lunch after the Topkapi Palace.  They have heated outdoor seating as well.

Our food was tasty - prices consistent with the area here.  Service was great.

This restaurant is a neighborhood gem with such warm and welcoming staff. The food was amazing specifically the lamb chops, chicken kebab, and clay pot. The clay pot was absolutely worth coming back for. The presentation does not disappoint. Try the kunefe or baklava and apple tea to finish off the evening. They're all delicious.
