Not worth the time or effort.. Expensive for Istanbul, not just the area. Staff seem to have a massive chip on their shoulder, like it's a problem to serve customers. I'm sure as being a yabangi I've been treated differently, so watch out. Any business that doesn't advertise prices should be avoided in Istanbul.

Nice location and nice traditional environment with tasty food but too expensive.
BUT they do not accept credit card and they informed us last minute after we ordered and had dinner. Also the total price was higher than what we actually ordered.

I’ve had lots of kebabs in my life but these are the BEST kebabs I’ve ever had. The Adana kebabs they have, lifestyle melt in your mouth. That’s how good they are. I’ve been here multiple times and the quality of the kebaps has upheld every single time. I simply love them! A must try if you enjoy meat. My only rec is bring cash because they don’t accept card payments. The interior is quite quirky too with a strong vintage vibe. I think this is Istanbul’s best hidden gem.

To be honest, this restaurant is expensive. Looking at the menu and atmosphere, it is not a luxurious restaurant, so it is difficult to make a good impression on travelers with tight pockets. In particular, reading other reviews, it seems like it wasn't expensive before. However, I can say this for sure. "It's really delicious!!" And very friendly. In particular, I initially ordered 2 dishes, the wairess (or owner? I don't know.) who was taking the order said it was too much and advised me to order less. And plenty food was left!
If you haven’t tried delicious kebabs in Istanbul yet, try this place! To be honest, I don't think the atmosphere deserves 5 stars, but it was so delicious that I gave it 5 stars.

I invited my Turkish friend to the restaurant and I asked about his opinion on how authentic the kebab is and he tried to be polite and said we could have had better. I personally didn’t like the taste of the food at all compared to other restaurants but I was hungry so I had to eat. Eventually, you have to pay cash as they don’t accept debit or credit cards which makes a problem if you are not ready.

We ordered soup, menemen and fresh juices. Everything was delicious, and very reasonably priced. We came back the next day and ordered the same things! They also gave us free tea. The staff are very kind too.

Everything was perfect until one of the servers licked the plate to clean it and then he placed the doner on top of the plate. When I informed the guy that took our order he promptly changed our doner and most likely brought to us a discounted check but come on, hygiene is important. Other than that, the food was delicious and the people there friendly.
The food tastes good! I had the lamb kebab and it was delicious, however the portion is so small for what you pay (plus one of the meat chunks was just all fat)!! It needed more meat, more rice, more pita. I get that it's a tourist area, but the price value was far off. I left still hungry 🥲

Cozy restaurant and Friendly staff. Service was fast too.
We enjoyed what we ate and drink and free bread kept coming!
Lovely food and really caring personnel. Felt like they went out of their way to make our night a memorable night. My partner is gluten free and they were more than accommodating with all our needs. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Friendly staff and all the staff are smiling giving the best service, especially the host 😁
He is so funny, and nice. The restaurant has a good atmosphere, the price is reasonable and the food is amazing.

Keep up the good work! Very very recommended 👍

This was really terrible. The chicken was just dried. They supposed to be bulgur but they just put rice and salad with no sauce....not tasty at all.
If you are drunk might be ok.....look like to be a place for that

In the short time we spent in Cappadocia we visited this restaurant twice, and everything was great. Very delicious kebab, we tried pistachio, Adana, and kofte kebabs, I highly recommend the first two, and I also recommend their hummus with kebab. The balloon bread they provide besides the lavash bread is super! We also tried the pumpkin dessert since pumpkin is one of the best products in this area and it was super interesting! Both fresh and cooked honestly I don't know how to explain it, must try!
The staff are friendly and attentive and the environment is pleasant!

The food, atmosphere, and staff are amazing! The quantities are large - you will definitely leave full and happy! The staff are attentive, they bring more bread over when you’re close to finishing, and it’s in a bustling area bringing good vibes. Would recommend!

Very very nice people in this kebab style restaurant. Food is good and pretty cheap. I recommend this place (went 3 nights in a row)
Unfortunately a joke of a service :(

We came here and ordered some starters and main dishes.. and when the starters came, there was one that we didn’t order but thought was complimentary.

However, 10 minutes later while I was eating the main dish they came and told us: “sir.. you ate this thing but it wasn’t yours.. it was for the next table.. what do we do?” What are you expecting me to answer?.. i said I thought it’s complementary, they said it was not.. alright, I offered to pay for it, they said “oh, really? Ok thank you!”.. as if that’s what they were waiting for, instead of admitting the mistake.

However, the pistachio kebap and the lentil soup were delicious, hence the stars.

Very sad to get treated like that, but oh well.. I do not recommend the place due to the poor service.
Here we had the best lentil soup of our vacation :) by far!

The rest of the food was also really good, with the chicken shish being perfectly roasted and tasty, and we had a few complimentary starters, one of which had roasted vegetables and was reaaaally good!

The service wasn’t that friendly (they were more friendly to groups, but to us they never even smiled..), but it was quick at least.

Overall, highly recommend :)

We came because of the reviews, wanted some authentic turkish food. Asked for some recommendations and the waiter kept pointing to the most expensive option and saying its the best. We ordered the "meat" platter and it was 60% Friess and pita as you can see, it was semi warm microwave
Lezzet mükemmel tavsiye ederim
Fantastic place with the loveliest staffs here, Azim is so friendly helping us with his amazing choice of chicken signature dish here. It’s Something I haven’t done in my life. And Can never forget this guy name Metin who is talented with his amazing photography skill that took a video for us not just that he also made a special video for us. Definitely love the food experience here and feel very nice sitting in this place. The vibe is amazing I’d recommend to try to experience in this place. Don’t miss!!! ❤️

Can’t say we enjoyed eating here. We ordered the lamb and it came out over cooked and dry. This is also the only restaurant in all of Turkey that doesn’t provide side dishes with your mains. The table beside us received their Testi Chicken raw. Finally after paying cash for my over priced meal. I had to ask for my change. Don’t be fooled by the flashy fire outside. I’d recommend you check out somewhere else before dining here.

A hole in the wall that appears to get good reviews but the food tastes like somebody rolled it around in the dirt on the street and then when you go to pay, notwithstanding the fact that there's a Visa and MasterCard sign right on the door, they tell you cash only. And good luck finding the nearest ATM!

Found this restaurant based on good reviews. Booked a table in advance as we had limited time.
The staff is very friendly and pleasant.
The food - delicious!
Chicken doner is juicy and tender! Gozleme is not quite the same as I like, not a classic version, but in puff pastry, but really tasty.
The prices are adequate.
Gemlik sanayide lezzeti konuşturan bir usta. Fatura da gayet makul.
We have decided to come in this restaurant because there were so many customer in this restaurant.
And at the time we came the staff is very friendly and very welcome .

After we’ve done, one staff came to us, and he served us 2 cup of tea.

I really appreciate him and then we had a really nice time in here .

If you are in Istanbul. A must try. The food is amazing. The atmosphere is great. They serve you on a big metal platter with different condiments along with your choice of protein.

Best way to eat: Grab a piece of the flat bread, then grab a skewer(it will be hot so be careful) take the meat off of the skewer with the help of the bread in hand. Then put in your fav condiments, roll it up and enjoy.

There is a culture that guests put their currency on the wall and leave hand written notes, its an experience to dine here.

We can into this place looking for something authentic and not overpriced. This place gave us exactly that. We ordered the shared meat platter as well as the minced meat pita. Both were very good with excellent flavors. The shop owner was very kind and talked with us most of the time offering insight about Turkey and what places were nice. We finished our meal with some Turkish Tea which tasted great.

Wow what a great place to eat! We've been traveling around Turkiye for a month and had the best Yaprak Sarma and meat casserole we've tried yet. The meat was so tender! The owner is super friendly and gives great service. He also speaks English very well. We returned for a second night and got the pottery kebab mixed meat...what a delight!! Highly recommended!

We loved it. It is a really authentic place. If you come to Istanbul, you have to go yes or yes, everything is very typical. The dishes, the glasses of wine, and the restaurant itself is very nice. I recommend the heart of lamb, it is really delicious. You have to go

Excellent lunch after my workout at the Goreme Fitness Centre across the street. Chicken breast was tender and very well seasoned. So was the rice. Slightly expensive but I don’t mind paying for the quality. I also had my first Salep - made from the tubers of orchids which was incredibly creamy and sweet. Granted, the waiter at the entrance can be a little pushy in getting customers, but service inside the restaurant was warm and polite.
Kuşbaşı pide siparişi verdim 3 kutu bakmadım eve geldim açtım kıymalı pide çıktı. İnsan kontrol etmeden sipariş verir mi ? Ücreti kuşbaşı ödedim.

Had the most incredible dining experience with a show here. The food was delicious and the ‘Crazy Chef of Cappadocia’ put on a great show when we ordered the Testi Kebab. Would definitely recommend to come here on your next trip to Cappadocia !
The place is simple but perfect for a dinner with great food.
Apart from what you order from the menu, they have complimentary starters to fill you even before the main course arrives.
Our server Sezer was professional and courteous.
Lezzetli helal gıda uygun fiyat ve en önemlisi güzel samimi ve mütevazi insanlar olduğu için bölgenin 1 numarası benim için. 👏👏👍

Great little place with a lot of potential! Its a small local restaurant, but their food it cooked on the spot, its fresh and delicious! Also, the prices are as they should be and not raised for tourists, so I thank them for that! I think this little place is underrated and its not fair that othe restaurants ( Al Diwan restaurant for example) take food from them and resell it to their customers for double the price!
Gemlik içindeki en iyi pide lahmacun salonu. Ürünler çok büyük oranla lezzetli. Özellikle mekanda yemeyi tavsiye ederim. Kalite yine çok büyük oranla yüksek ve standart. Fiyat konusunda lezzet, görsel ve kalite göz önünde bulundurduğumda çok makul. Umarım aynı çizgide devam eder. Kesinlikle tavsiye ederim.
Salaş bir mekan olmasına rağmen Gemlik te en iyi lahmacun olabilir

Gittiğimizde oturacağımız masa kirliydi bir süre bekledik ancak temizlenmeyince kendimiz temizledik. Bunu görmelerine rağmen bir bezle silelim vs demediler. Lahmacun fırından yeni çıkmasına rağmen nasıl oluyorsa soğuğa yakın geldi. Getirdikleri salatada yağ vs hiç birşey yoktu. Kendimiz de ekleyemedik masada yağ vs olmadiği için. Yedikten kısa süre sonra baş ağrısı başladı. Akşam da yine baş ağrısı ve kusma ile geçti malesef. Açıkçası ben önermem. Puanına bakıp gitmiştik pişman olduk.

While roaming around on istiklal street and exploring I felt hungry and wanted to try something local. After taking a look at few restaurants decided to eat at this one . Ordered Cop sis and Adana kebab, both the orders had wheat, onions, reddish, carrot, pita bread, a big grilled green chilli and baked tomato on the side, replaced wheat with white rice for one dish to make it different. Both the items were tasty and freshly cooked!
Adıyaman da Adana dürümü iyi yapabilen yerlerden biri hizmet iyi yazın dışarı da oturabilirsiniz tavuk şişte tavsiye ederim

Karşılama iyi mekan çok güzel ve temiz sadece sipariş alan garsonlarin biraz daha kibar ve ilgili olması lazım 2 adana dürüm 2 ayran için 80 lira ödedim fiyat çok uygun ve etleri gerçekten lezzetli tavsiye ederim
Yemekler , mezeler, ayran harikaydı. 2 kişi doya doya yedik 150₺ ödedik. Başka bi yerde tek başıma beytiye 160lira verince içime oturdu. Gidin, yiyin,yedirin.

getir üzerinden verdiğimiz sipariş, getir canlı destekten yardım almamıza ve kendim de telefonla aramama rağmen 1,5 saatte geldi. lokanta getiri suçluyor, getir lokantayı. siparişi iptal edeyim dedim ona da onay vermediler. 1 saat 15 dakıka geçtiğinde kurye beni başka bir mahalleden arıyor, kapınız kilitli diyor. nerdesin sen diyorum, başka bir mahallede başka siparişi dağıtıyormuş. Bir buçuk saatin sonunda soğuk ve dağılmış pide, soğuk ve kaskatı tatsız bir künefe yedik. paranızla rezil olmak için birebir
Taze ana malzemeler ile yapılan çeşitli ve lezzetli yemekleri damak tadına iyi hitap ediyor...

Ankaradan gelmiş biri olarak diyebilirimki oradaki kebapçılar daha iyi. Adana çok fazla tuzlu geldi. İkram olarak salata, maydanoz soğan vardı. Adananın yanında sıcak pide veriliyor. Vasat salaş bir mekan.
Tuvaletleri berbat bir halde girilmesi mümkün değil.

Urfa Kebap porsiyon,1 adet lahmacun ve ayran söyledim.
Urfa kebap kuru ,beklemiş köfte kıvamındaydı,yediğin en kötü urfa olabilir.Sanki daha önce pişmiş,bana ısıtılarak verilmiş gibi tat vermedi.Yanında verilen bulgur baya beklemiş ve kötüydü, domateslerde yanıktı.

Lahmacun doyamadığım için söyledim ,çıtırlığı büyüklüğü idealdi ,lahmacunu beğendim.

Haricinde el yıkama yeri ,kasa ve yemek hazırlanan tezgah birlikte küçük bir alanda,buna rağmen genel olarak hijyen yeterli gibi.

Sonuç olarak sadece lahmacun için tercih edilmez, önermiyorum.
Such good value. The set menu with the steak £14.99 was amazing and we got such generous portions. Some of the best food we have had in our two weeks in ìçmeler!

Ate here last night and the food and service was simply fantastic. The boy and I had peppered fillet steak which was amazing. The chips were awesome and I could not finish it all. The wife had chicken kebab which arrived hanging and again was perfectly cooked. Service was great. Would highly recommend

Steak is second to none! There was so much on offer and the waiters got a few snacks on the house as we waited.

We paid in Sterling 31.00 for 2 which included drinks, steak, chicken and a prawn starter. Will be returning when I got icmeler!
Excellent first class Resturant Yurda and the boys go above and beyond to make your visit there special and the food is exceptional can't recommend here highly enough x
