100% recommend 😍 I ordered the vegan kebab with homemade seitan 💘 , after being vegan for many years is super nice to eat homemade food that taste great and also is nutritious and filling - I did finish the whole plate because was really good and trust me, I was super full! The plate was delicious, the ingredients were really well combined and everything is done by the owner Oya 🫶🏼 I also ordered a brownie and tea 🫖 If you are vegan, you have to go! Oya is super attentive and you will leave feeling sad because this restaurant is in turkey and not in your country haha All the best 💫
We had the spinach rivioli and vegan kebab. It was so delicious! I loved that the kebab came on such a big plate with a lot of nice sides. I couldn’t even finish it but I really tried because it was that nice.
Amazing Vegan restaurant where you'll be greated by its wonderful, friendly owners who will cook your meal specially for you right at that moment, all natural and fresh. A truly local experience. I am not vegan myself yet I could eat this food every day since it is so delicious! One of my favorite restaurants in Istanbul, I will keep coming back every time I visit the city.
We visited for the first time and completely fell in love with their vegan kebab. It was so good that on our last day—while staying near the airport—we decided to take the train for over an hour just to come back and eat here one more time. That alone says everything. The owners are truly wonderful people, and you can feel the care, love, and intention they put into every single dish. Everything is made from scratch, and it absolutely shows in the flavor, quality, and experience. It is 100% worth the price when you understand the level of dedication behind the food. I honestly dream about coming back one day. Highly, highly recommended.
Unfortunately this was a disappointment for me. The smell of the restaurant is very overwhelming with cat and not very appetizing. The dolma was good, but the kebab was very bland. Ravioli was ok, but lacking in flavor. I also think it was quite expensive compared to other vegan options nearby. Personally I wouldn’t return unless the cat smell is taken care of.
