I had a delicious, nutritious, Turkish lunch here. I liked being able to pick out my meal from the counter. The staff were very welcoming and helpful in recommending dishes.

I had the chicken which came with rice, mashed potatoes, and salad. I also ordered two appetizers which were served with bread.

The food was very delicious, one of the best sarma places in Istanbul. Plenty of options to choose from including vegan, vegetarian and meat options. The guy serving us was super friendly and served us one extra side to try :).
The platter (of 2 or 6 dishes) comes with a bread basket. Tasty çay as well, worth trying.

A nice, chill place for lunch. We were slightly overwhelmed by the incredible variety of mezes but the friendly staff explained each dish and gave really good recommendations. The food was so fresh and delicious!

Scammy. Charged too much & wouldn’t let me keep the bill to check against the menu prices. The pictured hummus plate was 20€++. So come here if you want to get scammed into over paying for hummus 😂

P.D: I didn’t change anything - but I will reply here. If you think that rinky dinky plate was worth 21€ ( 3,50€ a scoop) you are delusional. And 15€ for microwaved rice and chicken is crazy - we got fresh chicken today for less than 10€ 😂😂😂😂 with three cold mezze as a courtesy !! Just don’t go here.

Amazing, authentic Turkish food. Done almost in a cafeteria style but elegantly plated and you can pick and choose your dishes. Great ambience and service. Food is delicious, fresh and affordable.
Would definitely come back to this place. A hidden gem of a lunch spot. Get the soup.
