Galata Art Smyrna Restaurant Cafe
Restaurant
👍👍 Down the hill and around the corner from Galata Tower is this little gem of a place. A gallery, a restaurant, a bar, a magical oasis just a block off the main drag.
Where do I begin? We went every day after we found it. The food is incredible, order anything. Specifically the shrimp in butter. The...

Falafel Koy
Falafel restaurant
👍👍 Wow. These were the BEST falafel balls - honestly, just give them a go! Everything was really fresh and flavours complimentary. The menu photos really don’t do this place justice! Portions were larger than expected, with a side of pita bread. 150 lira for two large mains seems like insanely good val...

Falafel Zone
Vegan restaurant
😠 For all those that have food allergies, sensitivities, and intolerances, I am sure you can relate to those moments when you have doubts about a restaurant's honesty when it comes to a food item being free of allergens, but you are so unbelievably hungry that if they tell you you can eat it, you do....

👍👍 One of the best vegan restaurant ever, so cozy, it feels like home. The food taste is just amazing, the fake meat taste so similar than real one. Love that they transform incredibly all typical Turkish dishes into vegan. Gluten free options as well and very affordable prices. I would eat there every...

Community Kitchen
Vegan restaurant
👍👍 This place has amazing reviews for a reason. We came in late afternoon and the friendly owner made us a "snack" with what she had left in her restaurant that day. It turned out to be two large plates of delicious vegan homemade food. Hummus, mushrooms, kofte, veggies, wraps, and lemonade. Really, re...

Vegan Dükkan Lokanta
Vegan restaurant
👍👍 Some of the best vegan dishes I ever had. Everything we tried was very tasty. The presentation was also great. They also have a small grocery shop next door. They don't have a lot of space so call them for a reservation. If you're around, definitely stop by.

Roka Cafe Kahvaltı
Vegan restaurant
😠 The place is nice but the guy charged me TL 50 for a cup of tea and one baklava. Even Hafiz Mustafa doesn't charge that much for their service. 50 tl is nothing but I think the guy is a rip off.

This restaurant chain has many outlets but I visit regularly the one in Harbiye near the bus stop and they have such a friendly service. Try the t...
