Like mom's home cooking - Edit
I sadly only discovered this place on my last day in Istanbul. I felt so welcomed, it was like being at a family member's home: they make you a plate, you get to choose how many dishes you want to try from a very large variety.
Read moreEverything was super tasty and I got a few bureks to go as well which were a great snack in the plane since vegan options are often unreliable when flying.

If you are in Taksim, this is the spot for your daily Turkish Food supplier. Hands down.
Friendly staff, homecooked healthy meals, tasty desserts, all vegan and cheap. 😊
Highly recommended 👌

Like eating with a local family - Edit
Food served out of casserole dishes and heated in a microwave. Casual. Felt authentic, many options, healthy. Doner wrap was ok. The seitan filling is one of the buffet choices plus chopped cabbage. The lavash wrap was a bit dry. We also had the pick 3. Generous portions for the prices. My favorite was the baklava - a must have.

Proper Homemade Vegan Dishes - Edit
Vegan Cuisine, a mom and pop owned restaurant. 20 plus vegan side, main and desserts are prepared and provided to customers at a steal price. 3 options is 200 TL & 4 options for 250. Drinks are 80-TL. The portions are big and the owner is very nice and speak multiple languages. There is indoor and outdoor seating as well. We give this experience a 5 out of 5. This restaurant checks all the boxes, for brunch, lunch or dinner!

Little but big - Edit
Little place with big variety of choices of local cuisine. All delicious. I sat on the back deck, sipping pink kombucha tea. Yum. Loved the potato lentil bake and the green bean dish. Staff speak basic English.

Amazing food and good pricing. You can feel cozy and at home while enjoying a pleasant environment while eating delicious food. The "3 option" system is nice. You can have your favorites while also trying out new things. Highly recommend it.

affordable traditional food - Edit
I'm glad i found this spot not far from my hotel. 200 Lira (3,50€) for 3 choices is a great deal. The food was yummy, I especially liked the Manthi. You can also buy yoghurt for 100 Lira which is supercreamy & nice. Next time I'll try the baklava & brownie 😊

Beaitiful food, charming hosts - Edit
Absolutely delicious variety of vegan Turkish food. The owners clearly have a passion for their food, and they treat you like friends from the second you arrive. And unlike a lot of places in Istanbul, there is no attempt to fleece tourists. Everything is unbeleivably good value. Highly recommended.

Delicious, local and affordable - Edit
Had a great experience! The owner made some fresh vegan Aryan and also has homemade kombucha. (But you can also get cola or fanta and such) We paid 16 euro in total to eat with 2 persons and have a drink. We both had 4 different dishes, if you pick 3 it's even cheaper.

Lovely! - Edit
Sweet little place with food made like your Turkish mother would! You can get all traditional Turkish dishes you could ask for vegan style. There's both cold and hot dishes. The hot ones go into the microwave. Everything's fresh though. Delicious home made food, many healthy options.

A-Okay - Edit
As others have observed, its a buffet setup, pick three (TL170) or four (TL200) dishes. Hot choices go into the microwave. Cold dishes (e.g. salads) added after. My food was cold, including things intended to be hot. Tasted fine. It was my choice not to send it back to the microwave; probably should have.
Read morePros: A bunch of vegan choices. , Not much fake meat, which I don't favor., Tasted good. Cheap.
Cons: Extra step required to get hot food.
