Great place to dine in. The atmosphere was awesome. You can sit inside, but it is a bit hot, outside is fantastic and yiu can watch people passing by. The prices were fair. The staff were friendly. I think it was one of the most crowded cafe restaurant in the street, which shows the perfornance.

Totally recommend this plase. They have delicious breakfast. Turkish coffee is good as well. You will enjoy it very much here.

This cafe was below our place of stay. Suriye Pasaji. Good setting but nothing out of world if I have to compare the other places in Istiklal Caddesi. There are three levels, you can get to sit in the upper level balcony, outside on the alley side or inside. Comfortable. Turnaround timing for the orders are decent. Lovely dishes. Loved all the items we ordered. Good portion sizes and the drinks are good as well. Must try the yogurt based kebab.

Very delicious appetizer and meal. The Turkish dish was a bit bland, but still very enjoyable with the provided sauces. The burgers and other meat dish were spot on! Lovely atmosphere; there are 3 floors here. Staff was attentive without being overbearing 🥰

Best restaurant in Istiklal street. I love an atmosphere, dishes, music and cakes. I really enjoy having breakfast in relaxing atmosphere. I recommend beef salad and fig dates cake 💜🥰

Good place. Beautiful decor. Foot really tasty. Friendly staff. I recommend this place in Istanbul.

The restaurant is very good. Fast service, our food was delivered within 15 min after we ordered and both dishes (of different complexity) arrived at the same time. Staff was polite, friendly, respectful of the privacy. The food… was delicious both: sea bass and lamb of a very good quality. Meet was tender and soft. We recommend!

Food was tasty, atmosphere is perfect and staff is friendly. I have been there 4 times with my family. Highly recommend halloumi salad 👍🏻

Great place. A good variety of delicious dishes. The desserts are amazing and the portions really generous. Very confy and nice location.

I had the pleasure of dining at Parole Restaurant, located on Istiklal Street, and it was a great experience. The restaurant is conveniently situated on the lively thoroughfare, making it easily accessible. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff were fluent in English and very welcoming. The menu was available in English and offered an amazing selection of affordable international dishes to choose from. In addition to the delicious food, they also offered an extensive drinks menu that included a variety of wines and cold beers. Whether you prefer indoor or outdoor seating, Parole Restaurant is definitely worth paying a visit. I highly recommend it and I look forward to going back again.

I went there with my family for lunch. We ordered a burger and a pizza, and both were great and delicious. The place was well-designed and cozy. The meals were ready on time. The waiters were friendly.

Overall amazing! My daughter loves their omelet her. Turkish tea is good also. 5 Stars is reasonable for this. 10/10 suggestion.

Extensive menu on the turkysh side of the kitchen with dropins from the Italian neighbor. Pizza - wraps - burger - yogurtlu kebap. Food was ok - the service fast - goodenuf for a hurried lunch.

Okay, so we tried this restaurant on a whim early on in our two-week stay on Istanbul. And we really liked it!! The menu has variety of options and the food we ordered was quite tasty! So much so, that we dined in or ordered take-away 5 more times!! 😆 and we tried so many different things from the menu, a couple of salads, pizza, meat and chicken dishes and wraps. And they were all really delicious. Our favorites: the salmon, the meatballs on eggplant sauce, chicken gratin and the beet salad! But explore the menu, many other dishes were as tasty. Oh, and they also have good Turkish wine. The Merlot was a pleasant drink. We have marked it as loved and we'll be back next time we are in Istanbul!:)

We had dinner, atmosphere was nice and service was good however food was average, the kids did not like the pizza it was too oily and the burger tasted like Kofta

Our first meal in the Istanbul and we were bit disappointed the restaurant and menu seemed great and the reviews were great. Food itself was average quality but we expected more as the price was higher than average restaurant in Istanbul. Wine was nice and good size but for the price of sparkling water I expected to get whole bottle of sparkling water but they only gave 200ml in the glass.There are better places to go and that we tried so far and would not come back here.

I think that a good restaurant does not need a man to invite you in. This is the case of the Parole restaurant. We came across it by chance, without anyone inviting us in an annoying way. Just by reading the menu at the entrance and conquering us through pictures and prices. The food was so delicious that we came back every day for 5 days...we simply ate so well that we didn't need to look for another restaurant. Congratulations!

We Came to Parole restaurant tonight for dinner We got Chicken gratin with mushroom and Chicken fillet with curry sauce. Both were really good especially the chicken gratin.

Quite happy with this place. It is located on the main street with seating options out or inside. The food we ordered was very tasty (recommend the grilled fillet steak) and the prices are good.

This is a big restaurant and you will always find a seat here! The food is great but I would not recommend to go there twice. Definitely worth going there once!

The restaurant was stunning and the servers were very kind. They struggle a little with English but they understand you! Food was absolutely great!

The food is average but the staff are nice. Prices are acceptable. Draft beer is good and cold. Worth a shot.

Amazing food, very well cooked and attention to detail is very good. The staff go out of their way to make you comfortable. Came here 5 years ago and it is as good as I remember if not better. Definitely worth a visit.

Parole is a good restaurant in Taksim with a nice terrace for people watching. I did however feel the beer was overpriced. They had the local beers almost the same price as the imported beers. For dinner I ordered the steak(izgara dana bonfile). The wait time was longer then expected and the temperature of my meal was luke warm which was disappointing.

Impeccable! I went here for breakfast, not expecting to much. However, when I walked in, I immeadiatly noticed a difference. No cigarette smell. Ever since I started travelling through turkey, I noticed that the people here smoked a lot, which is fine. I don't really like however, the constant smell of tabacco while eating. So the no smoking policy of this place is a big plus for me. As I mentioned before I went to this place for breakfast. The prices are more than fair and I have not had a better omlette yet in my time in Turkey. Next to that, there is a very pleasant ambience. The decoration is modern and everything is really clean. Love this place

We have order their best steake and salad. The food quality was normal, nothing special. But the service was not good, we asked for tea they brought tea without sugar or any sweet we had to ask, at the table also we had to ask about sauce and other stuff, In general its a normal resturan.

Definitely recommend ! Very tasty food !

It was fair. We sat outside, really crowded and smokey but hey it’s Istanbul. Food was pretty good just so busy hard for staff to keep orders straight and who ordered what. No great issues, would go back again.

Excellent service and delicious food! We tried the soup, pizza, steak, and tiramisu

Terrible service! Waited for more than 40 minutes for the simple order, the waiters were ignoring us. No warnings or apologies. Only after 3 reminders (actually after 2 reminders we said that we wanted to leave) suddenly all three courses appeared. The food was ok, except the fact that they put rotten tomato in the salad. P.S. after finally bringing the food, they apologized for the 1st time and let us know that we can have the dessert for free as a compliment. They didn't ask whether we wanted it or not, and in 10 minutes they brought 1 piece of cheesecake (1 piece for 2 guests). First of all, none of us wanted dessert (but they insisted, saying 'IT IS FOR FREE!') secondly, I am lactose intolerant, so even if I was expecting an apology dessert, there was no chance I could eat it. P.P.S. We weren't expecting much from this restaurant, but they made everything possible to disappoint us. If I could rate it 0 stars, I would definitely do it.

I've been in this restaurant twice, I really like it, the atmosphere is great and I like the decor, the food is also great, I'm thinking of going soon

Omg, i had a delicious meal, the number 53. My compliments to the chef!! Nice priced also. One small thing, the staff should smile a bit more. I’ll be back.

The food was decent. The service was horrible. I sat and waited 15 minutes before deciding to leave. Only then were we acknowledged. We ordered and was told there was no jam. Then my Turkish friend asked and got the jam! As we were getting the money together for the check the waitress reached out and grabbed the total with out a tip and we let her! How rude!
