The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming, always greeting guests with a smile and a warm, approachable attitude. The wine list is well-curated, and the consultation is knowledgeable without being pretentious. The dining area has a cozy, lively atmosphere—at times intimate, at times buzzing with conversation—creating an overall relaxed yet upscale party vibe.
The menu offers a mix of refined comfort food and creative interpretations, ranging from classics like pepper steak and katsu sando to more inventive, internationally inspired dishes, all built around high-quality, locally sourced ingredients.
I agree with the Michelin recommendation: if you’re already in Istanbul, this spot is certainly worth a visit. However, it doesn’t yet rise to the level of a culinary destination that warrants a dedicated detour—and, in my view, is unlikely to transition to two stars anytime soon.
