Yummy, good value and a wide range of options all with a nice balcony setting.
One or two items were less good (eg the falafel) but the vegetable dishes and salads were tasty.

homemade local food

You can choose 3 or 4 meal your plate. Tastes are good. Mostly home made food but good place for those looking for homemade vegan local food. Also has lahmacun.

Pros: price, many options, satisfying

Eviva Vegan Istanbul!

That was the first eatery we visited in Instanbul, and the experience was pretty unexpected. Nice lady at the counter explained us in English that we can create sets containing 3 or 4 components, which is great cos we were able to try 3 meals at once. The price was really low tho. Each component was a few levels higher than the versions I had eaten before. I personally recommend dolmas which were juicy, fresh & full of taste, couscous salad (even if you don't like groats & salads, for real) with some fruity ingredient which made it suprisingly delicious, and seitan which was the best seitan I've eaten in my life (and I've eaten a lot of seitan in my life). If the owners only find a better way to store falafels (which were unfortunately dry), this place will become unbeatably best eatery in Istanbul. To the owners: we really wanted to come back but the place was closed on Sunday.

Pros: Amazing value for money, Great variety of meals, Home-style cooking

Cons: The falafel was pretty dry :(

Lezzet & Doyuruculuk & Güleryüz

İki kişi olarak, üç çeşit içeren tabaktan iki tane söyledik ve günün yorgunluğuna ilaç gibi geldi. Seitan, humus, mücver, sarma, fellah köftesi ve köfte. Hepsi birbirinden leziz ve doyurucuydu. Bu tatlı dükkana tekrar tekrar geleceğiz. Ev yapımı kombuchaları da harika 🪷

Fresh & delicious

Amazing! Such lovely staff and delicious food! Everything was so fresh and tasty! I was happy with my choices even if halfway I realised I got so excited by all the choices and my eyes are bigger than my stomach. I soldiered through. It is a buffet style with no set menu, just a choose from the available dishes and enjoy!

Amazing authentic food for the low

Ate here twice! The ravioli is a must!!! The green beans are also so delicious. Everything chosen was very pleasant and tasty. It is an especially great place to come if you are on a budget. A plate of 4 costed $4 and was filling.

authentic vegan dream

Das Restaurant liegt zwar etwas ausserhalb, dennoch lohnt sich der Weg allemale! Die Inhaber sind sehr freundlich und erklären das verschiedene Essen sehr gerne. Die Auswahl an türkischen veganen Gerichten ist hervorragend, genauso gut ist der Geschmack. Ich bin sehr vom Restaurant überzeugt und komme gerne wieder.

Der einzige Minuspunkt ist das Ambiente es ist kein 5* Restaurant vom Look, sonst TOP!

Pros: geschmack, auswahl, frische

Cons: athmosphäre, location

Delicious Homemade Vegan Food

It’s like entering your aunt and uncles home and kitchen. Warm welcome once you enter and go downstairs. We had soya meatloaf, manti pasta, carrot salad, and beans. We took soya lamajun home for lunch the next day. It was delicious.

Pros: Delicious, homemade, inexpensive food, Kind owners, Takeout available

Cons: Bit far, but worth the walk, Basic establishment without AC

Good home cooked meal

First I was confused whether the place I entered is actually the restaurant. (Go downstairs to choose your plate.) But what it lacks in interior is made up tenfold through the quality and taste of the various dishes, as well as the owners' humbleness. The moment I tasted the food, it reminded me of mama's cooking.

Pros: Variety, Price, Quality

Another hidden gem!

Homemade food - like your momma cooked it! Although opens at 11 - arrive at 11:30 in order for the buffet style service to be ready. Lots of buffet options and you can choose a few to be added to your plate. Plus homemade kombucha!

Pros: Price, Family Run, Traditional dishes

Homemade and delicious food

A simple restaurant with real food! You choose from the various options available on the day. Homemade and local food, just what we were looking for. Well served portions, the price is very affordable and the owners are very kind. The baklava is also a must, great with Turkish tea.
If you are in Istanbul, it’s worth going there!

Pros: Homemade food, Various options, Price

Cute family business and tasty options

Definitely a stop to make if you are in the karakoy district.
They have different menu formulas and they are all equally convenient. The food is what one usually eats even in the same Turkish households and the portions are generous.
The only small flaw is that some dishes are slightly too oily but the food is so fresh that you don't feel heavy afterwards.
Among the things I liked best was the borek with spinach and I would have liked to try the dumplings (manti) which were unfortunately finished.
Special mention goes to the chocolate cake, in fact as soon as we finished the first slice we immediately ordered another one. It was very light, juicy and simply perfect (with a cup of their tea even better).
The business is run by a very helpful family, and the place is very nice.

very good + great value

Food is very good. Service was very friendly and good. Also very affordable and good portions. The only reason that it isn’t a 5 star is because some of the options were very oily.

Ganz fantastisch!

Es gibt keine Karte, man wählt an der Theke aus, was (und wieviel) man möchte.

Pros: Viele Optionen

Cons: Billig, Sehr authentisch
