The staff was very nice and polite and the food was amazing, especially Pasha Kebab (definately recommend it) Coffee was also great (turkish coffee) and according to my dad, best in all Istanbul (that we tried so far) It is very peaceful and quiet and perfect if you're hungry or just want to sit, relax, have a cup od coffee We tried several restaurants in Istanbul, but this is the only one we kept coming back to, definately reccomend it Greetings from Croatia ????????????????
