Extraordinary - Edit
The food and flavors here are very sophisticated. You will not find such tasteful food nearby — it’s entirely worth the price.

Superb little restaurant - Edit
The food was amazing, dessert too (tiramisu!), perfect service. The only issue is that there’s not much space to sit, but perfectly doable for two people.

If you want to eat plant based, go here don't think about it. - Edit
This is the best vegan spot in İstanbul. The prices are bit on the higher side but the quality definetely compansates it. The only problem is that they don't really have alcohol, so it feels a bit like a lunch spot.
Read moreMy favorite is the tofu katsu curry and the mantı. This mantı is crazy good, with a very balanced vegan yogurt.
Please try the deserts, especially the tiramusu.
Pros: Tofu catsu curry!!!, Mantı!!!, Tiramusu
Cons: A bit pricey, Only a few wine option, which are overpriced.

Best Ayran I’ve ever had! - Edit
We had the oven Aubergine (really cheesy) & the traditional ravioli (both with small meetballs). And not to forget the best Ayran I’ve ever had out of cashew milk.
Read moreThey also offer a variety of gluten-free options with just a little surcharges, like the ravioli or börek.
The stuff was absolutely amazing & friendly! Loved the atmosphere. Bit more expensive than other places in turkey but we paid for an incredible evening for two about 25€.
We will come back 🥰

Lovely staff, brilliant menu and food - Edit
During our recent visit this evening, we were pleased to find the cozy restaurant filled with patrons throughout our stay. Despite being unaware of the generous portion sizes, we placed our order and were delighted with the exceptional quality of the food. Every item we ordered was faultless, and although we were unable to finish everything and had no room for dessert, we requested a Peanut bar for takeaway, which also exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend this establishment.

Vegan food done right - Edit
What we liked was that they had 3 chefs and a waitress. Most vegan restaurants/cafes of the same ‘small’ size in Istanbul we visited didn’t. This showed in their cooking and service. Both very good. We had spaghetti and meatballs, soup, yogurt, kebab on rice. All very tasty. Recommend. Enjoy!

A boutique cafe/restaurant with great vegan spirit. The food is absolutely a must try when you are in Istanbul! The staff is super friendly. I had Turkish ravioli (GF), homemade savoury Spanish pie (GF) (takeout) with fermented cashew yogurt and affogato (plant-based cashew vanilla ice cream topped w a shot of espresso, Wow! The jars of cucumber water complete the decor & atmosphere for the dining experience!

Simply delicious - Edit
The food here is outstanding. We tried the spinach and cheese borek - amazing - and the manti. The manti tasted homemade and was some of the best I have ever had in a restaurant. Their vegan yogourt is so so good. High recommended. They also have a lovely collection of resident kedis.
