this is my absolute favourite place to eat in İstanbul, but it is so good that you canb't go every…read moreday or you'd get tired of it.
When you go, tell the waiter you want the mezes. I wouldn't fill up on soup- it's good but it's better to save room for the mezes! they have yummy corn bread, and their çoban (shepherd's) salad is good- but again: save room.
They will start bringing you mezes immediately. My favourite is the one with eggplant but I can never remember what fish is used. Also I love the black sea salmon with onion and soya sauce! At first, one spoonful doesnt seem like enough, but they will come around at least 5 times giving you helpings of different fish based mezes. Usually after 5 helpings they ask if you'd like more, or if it's enough (it's usually enough- especially if you ate some of the corn bread).
After dinner, you can have their yummy desert which is a volcano brownie, icecream and helva. We usually share the desert between two people with tea.
The service here is ALWAYS phenomenal, and I have never left unhappy. The only problem is that Tuzla is a little far to drive to! Thank goodness, or else I would probably go twice a week!
