    Excellent simple food that is tasty. Basic menu but the options are great. Service is good and friendly. Was surprised how recently priced it was in such touristic location. Can highly recommend

    I was amazed by the taste of the food.. I was a bit hesitant since there is only one main course however.. It is more tgan enough.. I enjoyed every single bite. The staff are really cooperative and helpful.. They took my kids trolley up to the stairs since there is no elevator which is the only downside. It is not a wheelchair friendly and definitely it is not a place for vegiterian diet. The view is really awesome and the price is relatively reasonable for a touristic area The plate costs 175 TL only.. But it is realy delicious and the tea after the meal makes the twist.. Would go back again

    If you love kofte COME here and you'll have the best kofte you ever had guaranteed. If you don't love kofte also COME here they'll change your mind guaranteed. I ordered it twice it was soo good and the çorba (soup) with complimentary bread... you can't get better than that. Must try if your in sultanahmet!

    The food is very delicious and the koftah beef was juicy and very testy. the plates are small and enough for one adult, so for families you will need more than two plates. The salad plate was also very good and the prices are very reasonable. The lentil soup was average and the menu is very limited so be aware that you will only have one main dish option.

    Came here because my tour included lunch. I wasn’t expecting much, because so far all the places I visited with the tour were all just okay. But surprisingly this spot was great! My family enjoyed it so much we came back for more the next day. The interior walls are filled with accolades and photos of famous Turkish actors and comedians who have come to visit the establishment. It feels very traditional, with a modern flair. They have a very simple menu, and literally only serve their Kofta (meatball), alongside a variety of sides and a complimentary basket of bread. The Kofta is delicious! Very juicy, flavorful, but can get a bit too oily. Their rice is also very tasty, all that delicious butter on it makes it very scrumptious. The lentil soup was good but a bit bland, though it went well with the Kofta. The fries and salad were forgettable. The Buttermilk (Ayran?) was wrongly named, because it was neither milky or buttery, but very yogurty and sour! Would definitely recommend checking this place out after visiting the Blue Mosque or the Hagia Sophia. Plus, it’s located right in front of the Sultanahmet Metro station so it’s even more convenient!

    They have only köftesi on the menu and you know they must be good, and they are! 100% beef, woodfire, and a nice look on Hagia Sofia and Blue Musk.

    Great meatballs. One of the best. The lentil soup is also good. The menu is very limited. But food is very good and price very reasonable since it is next to Hagai Sophia. It only has meatballs, lentil soup, two types of salads, French fries and pilaf.

    It is a decent restaurant near Hagia Sofia and Blue Mosque. They have a very few options on the menu. There is meatball for the main dish and no other option then that. The meat was fresh and delicious although it is not one of the best I’ve tried so far. The service is fast. The price is relatively cheap, 6$ for the meatball. With soup and salad, the price foes up to 10$ which is still reasonable. They charge extra for the tea which is unusual since there in most places it is for free.

    Great for a fast meal. We had the meatballs and lamb kabob. The meatballs were spicey and the lamb was pretty tasty. The lentil soup was perfect on a rainy day and the sutlaç was wonderful.

    Very good and quiet restaurant with fast service and delicious food! The menu is small but nice. Do note that a small service charge may be added without prior notice, probably for things like bread and other services. I certainly would appreciate if it's clarified beforehand! Overall recommended.

    you must go here!!! Kofte was absolutely delicious. Really reasonably priced as well, especially when you consider the location. A little quiet inside, but still a really lovely restaurant.

    From the outside, the place isn’t very appealing, it looks like a place for tourists. But don’t be fooled by this first impression, the food is delicious ! You should try it out after visiting Hagia Sophia

    Good quality Köfte and kebab, very popular place with high turnover and basic service. I generally like places who offer limited items on the menu because they specialize in the few items offered which is in this specific case Köfte and kebab. Worthwhile trying.
