It's just a great place for those who don't care about the surroundings, but the quality of the food is important. Everything is very fresh, cooked under the knife. Simple and delicious. Please note that the place is small and unpresentable, but it is always difficult to sit down in the evening. There are places inside and outside. There is no alcohol, only baklava from desserts, but it is the tastiest! The portions are large, and the lentil soup is great. Polite waiters, no barkers, which was very annoying in other places. And most importantly, it's very budget-friendly by Istanbul standards - 800 liras for a hearty lunch for two. 5 points.

The atmosphere is homely, cozy restaurant. The hosts are a married couple, very friendly and welcoming. This restaurant has the best lentil soup in Istanbul. We came here for him several times. Baklava is divine. The menu is small, but well-made and delicious, homemade. An excellent, and very inexpensive place. 100% go to lunch.

It's a great place. It was near our hotel. The interior is modest, but the food is delicious. Everything is brought fresh and hot. The portions are large, and the price tag is very humane compared to other similar establishments. I've been groomed several times, and I really liked everything.

Definitely 5 stars. Unlike other places with touts, reasonable prices, delicious food and courteous staff. And yes, a small number of dishes for the establishment is a plus, so you've got your hands full. I was surprised by the free tea bonus. Well done guys!

Great place: the food is delicious, the portions are large, the prices are pleasant and the service is very fast and friendly. No one invites passers-by to dinner, while there is no shortage of guests, almost full boarding in the evenings. I definitely recommend it!

Great place! Scrambled eggs - 150 lire! A huge shawarma - 250 lire. Tea - 15 lire. A must-visit. By the way, there is an old mosque nearby, you can go if there are no events in it.

It's a very nice place! We had lentil soup (although I don't really like it, but I ate it with pleasure) and kebab (beef roll wrapped with vegetables in a pita bread roll). They also served tortillas for free, just right for the soup. Everything is very tasty, the prices are pleasant. January 2025: soup - 80, kebab - 240. I definitely recommend visiting this place!!

The most sincere recommendations! Very tasty, large portions. Real slow food. The favorites are the soup of the day and the Mediterranean salad. Most importantly, no strange mayonnaise fillings in salads. A smiling host and quite reasonable prices.

A wonderful place!
we were glad to come back here for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
the choice of dishes is not large, but everything is very tasty and relatively inexpensive.
some portions are frankly for two, some are more like one.
prices were relevant at the beginning of February 2024, when the lira was 3 rubles.
delicious lentil soup, slightly spicy, it is served with lemon and spices (you can add it yourself to the food if desired), 50 lire.
a basket of bread is placed on the table - it is very tasty!
adana kebab - 190 lira kebab served with a side dish in the form of rice and vegetables. The rice is well cooked and the kebab is delicious.
salad. a simple vegetable salad of tomatoes, cucumbers and greens is drizzled with balsamic vinegar and sprinkled with sumac spice and maybe something else that makes it delicious), - 95 lira, and this volume of salad is more for 2.
kebab durum - kebab with vegetables wrapped in tortillas: for 145 lira, 2 wrapped - for one or for two - according to the degree of hunger, one is definitely enough to satisfy hunger 1 - the tortilla wrapped in is quite satisfying.
(you can ask to pack it with you)..
The tea is pleasant, with a distant hint of mint. 15 lire. a small cup.
baklava is very tasty, melting in the mouth, 3 pieces, 65 lire - a wonderful dessert.

We went here a couple of times. It was delicious every time! The prices are below the average for the area and the service is very pleasant. A basket with very tasty tortillas is placed for each order. If you ask, they will pack them for you on the road (and even put more). It's a very nice place. I recommend

If it were possible to put 10, I would put 10. Do not look at the inconspicuousness and simplicity of the place, do not let it scare you away, it is unrealistically delicious here!!! If you are looking for delicious traditional cuisine, this is the place for you. Everything is delicious, from salad and kebab to baklava and tea! You will not find such baklava in the famous chain stores of sweets in Istanbul!

The first photo shows the menu with prices in February 2023, the second one shows our dinner for ~ 180 liras)
We tried almost everything - especially the delicious chicken kebab - the juiciest! All the other meat is also very tasty)
They cook quickly, you can take it with you to take away)

A wonderful cafe in Istanbul in Sultanahmet district. We found it two years ago, this year we came back and went here several times. It is very tasty, they cook quickly, everything is homemade, and the prices will please you. We ordered different dishes and they were all very tasty. I recommend one of the best establishments in Istanbul.

It is very tasty, hospitable and cheap. Of course, not like in 2021, but at the time of December 2022 it is several times cheaper than what is in Sultanahmet and tastier. Prices have doubled in a year: the soup became 22 lira, the tea 10 lira. But it is understandable why) however, regardless of this — price = quality you will not find a better place in the center.

Delicious! Such a dinner cost me 205 liras (for today, February 2024). Prices in Turkey are constantly rising due to the wildly unstable lira. A place to quickly run in for a snack and leave, not a cafe straight. The staff is polite and helpful.
And what a delicious grilled chicken, oh gods))) it is more expensive and not so tasty in the neighboring resorts, the fact is

Of the advantages: inexpensive and quite tasty, cooked with a knife.
Of the cons:
