Delicious - Edit
The food was amazing, would 100% come again! The best vegan food I had in Istanbul. It’s more on the expensive side but definitely worth the money. I had the eggplant dish (11/10) and a brownie :). The seats are limited!

Come for the food, stay for the cats! - Edit
Absolutely lovely place! I was excited to try traditional dishes like borek and Turkish ravioli, which were both good, but the real standout was the smoked eggplant. There is a small market next door that is nice to peruse while you wait for your food. Seating is limited, though, so try to avoid peak hours without a reservation
Read morePros: Cats!, Vegan shop next door
Cons: No beer or wine, Limited seating

An absolute must! - Edit
We had the most fantastic dinner there: smoked eggplant, pink hummus, stuffed chard leaves, avocado salad, all absolutely mouthwatering. The waiter went out of his way, the whole place has a great vibe. And to top it all: the desserts (carrot cake and tiramisu) were to die for! So, when in Istanbul, go!!

Vegan in Istanbul - Edit
Excited to find a fully vegan restaurant here. There are not too many. It’s a small restaurant, looks like a family business, kind staff and good food with a fair price. I went for the Ravioli that is homemade and delicious, but is spicy and I was not expecting. The Tiramisu is veeery good!
Read morePros: Tasty and homemade food, Staff is friendly
Cons: They let cats in - not good for allergics like me, Very small, not many tables, They close rather early

Possibly the best vegan restaurant in Istanbul - Edit
We came here with high expectations given the rave reviews on this site and elsewhere... and we weren't disappointed. It's a small, simple place with room for ten inside & another ten outside, but the chef really works wonders in their tiny kitchen! I had the smoked aubergine dish, which is a bit like baba ganoush topped with meatballs & tomato sauce. It was amazing! My wife had the Turkish ravioli, which she also enjoyed. Definitely worth seeking out.
Read morePros: Great food, Fair prices, Friendly staff
Cons: I'm not a big fan of cats in restaurants

Amazing Turkish vegan - Edit
I had a great brunch at this spot. It’s very intimate with only a few tables but I sat outside on a sunny day and was a complete peace. The food is flavorful and all around amazing for the price.
Read moreI had the tofu toast from the breakfast menu and the Turkish Ravioli dish from the lunch menu. Both were equally delicious.

Very tasty food - Edit
We had the turkish ravioli. They didn't had the normal one, but only the ravioli without gluten. I normally don't really like ravioli without gluten, but this one was very tasty.
Read moreWe also had the döner and that tasted also amazing and we had the cheeseplatter. I think the cheeseplatter would be my only little point of critic, because I think the cheeses could have had more taste. We've had vegan cheese before and I've had better ones, but still the restaurant looks very cute and the staff are very friendly. Would definitely recommend it!
Pros: Food is very tasty, Cute atmosphere, Nice and friendly staff
