Leckeres Essen

Super Essen, sympathisches kompetentes Personal. Heimeliges Imbiss-Ambiente, im Untergeschoss ein paar Sitzplätze im Untergeschoss. Im Obergeschoss Sitzplätze und irgendwelche Kartons und Kram. Essen kann man sich an der Theke zusammenstellen lassen und wird dann zum Platz gebracht. Geschmacklich war das Essen richtig gut.

Pros: Essen lecker

Cons: Ambiente sehr schlicht

Delicious authentic Turkish cuisine

[EN] If you want to try an authentic Turkish cuisine, this is one of the best spot to do it. The food tastes like Turkish grandma's cooking, and in addition, the prices are very decent. It's possible to try several dishes on one plate which is a huge plus. The owners are very nice and helpful. I highly recommend trying walnut baklava and dolmas stuffed with rice and mint (a perfect combination).

[PL] Jeśli chcesz spróbować autentycznej kuchni tureckiej, jest to jedno z najlepszych miejsc w mieście. Jedzenie smakuje jak u tureckiej babci, a w dodatku ceny są bardzo przyzwoite. Jest możliwość nałożenia kilku dań na jeden talerz, co jest wielkim plusem. Właściciele są bardzo mili i pomocni. Bardzo polecam orzechową baklawę i dolmy faszerowane ryżem i miętą (idealne połączenie).

Pros: Delicious food, very cheap food, nice and helpful staff

Authentic and delicious vegan turkish Food

If you want to savor authentic Turkish home-cooked vegan dishes, this is the place to be. You can order mixed platters and sample their diverse offerings. Everything was clean and incredibly delicious. A definite recommendation if you are looking to experience genuine Turkish cuisine.

Quite good but not amazing

No menu, only different kind of food and u mix your plate with 3 or 4 options. It’s heated in the microwave.
The food is nice but was a bit disappointed. I wasn’t amazingly surprised or anything so quite lame.
Anyway since there is no much in the area, it’s worth the visit and the price who is very cheap.

Pros: Cheap, Food

Cons: Location, Food not very various

Good home cooking style food

A little ways out of the centre of Istanbul this is a very pleasant little restaurant.
All
The food seems to be home cooking style food and is ordered at the till from behind a counter. This is then re heated and served. That is the only real criticism from me. The food tasted nice and you get a massive portion for the cost. But it is reheated and loses some of its appeal.
We had a really Turkish meal that cost 110TRL each plate.

Pros: Home style cooking, Cheap

Cons: A bit far away, Reheated food.

Delicious food!

Happy we went to vegan Istanbul!
Small restaurant with nice and helpful owners explaining their „menu“. Actually you can choose from various vegan „Turkish classics“ up to 4 or 5 options.
Best value we had in our whole Istanbul stay. Really a big and delicious portion for just 110 lira! 🙌🏼

Lovely owners and family-style Turkish food

We visited Vegan Istanbul a few times during our stay in the city in April 2023. Food is tasty, homemade and inexpensive. You can choose 3 or 4 dishes from a varied assortment which includes traditional family-style Turkish foods veganiazed. The owners are really friendly, the atmosphere is quiet. They also offer Turkish desserts like baklava or mosaic cake.

Pros: Nice owners, Inexpensive , Turkish dishes veganized

Delicious

I arrived to Vegan Istanbul after working up an appetite from climbing the many, steep hills in Istanbul. The restaurant is cafeteria style, meaning you pick which dishes you want and then they will throw it on a plate and heat it up for you. I couldn’t decide what to get so I asked the man working and he was happy to help. They also have desserts in which I gladly grabbed some for the road.

Vegan Istanbul

Really lovely café and owners. This is more cafeteria style where you select the items you want from the cooler/display. The selected items are plated and are then placed into a microwave before being served to you. The food was really delicious, but I did have to ask the woman to put my plate back in the microwave because a lot of the items were cold. Nevertheless, once my food was warm, it was delicious. The prices are very low too.

Great value!

Simple place. You can get 3 options for 95lira, 4 options for 110.

They had a selection of desserts- I had a delicious chocolate and biscuits dessert from the fridge. They also had cookies and baklava. Food wasn't phenomenal, but very quick and good for the price. I would recommend if you need a quick, decent meal. The staff were also lovely.

Food was heated in the microwave. I asked her to heat it a bot more as it wasn't fully warmed.

Home cooked style canteen food

Small eatery where you can get 3/4/5 options for a very good price. Has a home cooked canteen vibe.
There is lots too choose from, it was the only place I found Borek and the dolma was very good. Also has baklava and other deserts.
Con - food is heated up in a microwave and wasn’t hot enough/heated all the way through.

Hearty cheap meals

This place has been one of my favourites so far in the city. It's a very unpretentious and homey place without a menu. Instead you select 3 or 4 of the dishes they have at the counter and they combine and heat up for you. The food tasted homemade and authentic, I felt like I was in someone's home. The couple that run the place is lovely. I also had a tasty homemade kombucha. Highly recommended.

Great food in friendly place

The food was really good and cooked with care. The people serving us were very friendly. They have many dishes on display and you can make a selection of 4. Traditional Turkish dishes as well as pastas, burgers, seitan etc. Healthy food as well, cooked from good ingredients. The aubergines were amazing, also the dolma and spinach pastry. We also had delicious fresh orange juice and home made combucha. Finished with baklava, Turkish coffee and a chocolate brownie to die for! All this at a very affordable price. Thank you very much! We didn’t manage to take photos of the food…we were too much in a hurry to eat it, haha! Only remembered about taking photos when we were half way through desert.

Pros: Healthy and tasty, Home made / authentic, Friendly

Average food, horrible service

Food was subpar at best. Staff behavior was extremely rude for no reason at all. Strongly recommend people not to visit this place.
