One of the absolute best we had it Istanbul. My husband and I did a couple Michelin restaurants in…read moreIstanbul including Turk Fatih Tutak and Sankai but I must say Pera Antakya was certainly our top pick in its category even next to our Michelin experiences. It was our most memorable experience given the food was just so authentic and good. We were pleasantly surprised because I had found Pera Antakya in my research when planning our trip and it was first on our list to try, we then discovered when we arrived at our hotel (The Westist) on our first night that Pera Antakya was right next door. We were shocked/surprised/thrilled all at the same time. As such, we had dinner here the first night we arrived in Istanbul and was blown away. We did the meze, the wrap, farmer's cheese, and the mixed grill plate all based on recommendations from who we believe was the owner. The hospitality was lovely, welcoming, but more so the food was incredibly memorable and we found ourselves wishing we had more time in Istanbul so we could come back and eat at Pera Antakya. We did a couple other highly rated restaurants in similar concept to Pera Antakya over the week we stayed in Istanbul and ultimately though food in Istanbul is generally good, we found Pera was still the best we had out of all them in the same category. In fact, if it was only one restaurant we could go back to and have another meal at or if I could only recommend one restaurant to eat at while you're in Istanbul--- it would be Pera Antakya. We were that impressed with this place. Do not miss it if you're in Istanbul!

We got the mezze plate with 8 different mezzes---the spicy yogurt was our favorite and it's very spicy. The bread they use is excellent, has some red spice on it that we all loved. For dinner got the lamb shish which was excellent, and the pera antakia kebab which was also very good. All around great, highly recommend

Although the falafel patties were not as hot as I like them, they were still amazing. I'm not a fan of tabbouleh salad, so I can't really give an opinion on whether it was good. Given the quality of everything else, I'm guessing it was good. I did eat some of it. The people serving were very kind.

There weren't many reviews of this place when I went, but I was craving some Lebanese food so I…read moretook a chance and I was not disappointed! It was located in a nice area of Istanbul that was less crowded compared to where we were staying (which was by the blue mosque). First off, I was impressed with the huge selection in the menu! There's a general menu, a vegetarian menu and a vegan menu . I got the fattoush salad and shish barak and my husband got the chicken wrap with special sauce. We both really enjoyed our meals and one of the better meals we've had while at Istanbul!

Brunelle is the name of a plant from lavender family in latin. You have a chance to have a meal identify with its name in a green environment when the spring comes. Erkan Bey, one of the owners of the venue, is an academician at the same time. He was making live music when you having your meal in every Thursday and Friday during last winter. He was trying to make your meal more enjoyable. It is hard to find a free table without reservation. He chose every meal carefully add the menu with the experience of years. He has made a menu with the inspiration of making delicious foods. This menu is different from many venues offering industrial kitchen. I tasted french onion soup au gratine with gruyere cheese. Homemade agnolotti with cheese (with spinach and pine kernel cream sauce) and sea bass wrapped in baklava dough. Every plate was different in respect of taste. I liked the most the agnolotti from them. The pine kernel sauce pulled its taste much higher. Do not leave here without eating a dessert. I ate chestnut souffle and sesame topping it. This dessert was very successful and pleased to eat. It was a successful venue in respect of price-performance. It is ideal for special meals. There was an extra discount for Saint Joseph graduates. #KanGurular

It was so good. The raki was awesome. The waiter insisted I add some water to it and he definitely knew best, it was sharp. And then it turned white! It is an anise liquor, like a jaegermeister, and I was glad I tried it. We ate in the semi outside seating which is always such a highlight in Istanbul.
