Mr. Omer was one of the kindest people I've ever met and I felt at home. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is visiting Kadıköy and wants a little taste of Italy :)

The three stars given is purely based on service and not the food!…read moreStaying at the Doubletree, where this place is situated, I made a point of reserving a table ahead of time for a party of four. Arrived at the promised time and only three tables were occupied which is understandable for a Sunday night but all the more reason to receive a much better service then what was provided. We were promptly greeted and orders were taken but that's where it all stopped. Our server never checked to see if we needed anything, never cleaned the table/crumbs between courses, refilled water or beverages. Most certainly not the level of service I expected. Prices were not cheap but not ridiculous and everyone enjoyed what they ordered which was mostly seafood. I definately will write to management if there is no acknowledgement to this review.

Brunelle Restaurant is operating in an area with cosy decoration and pool owned by Saint Joseph…read moreSchool. The green area is using a social facility by graduates. 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

The prices are reasonable and almost cheap for such an italian rest in overpriced istanbul market. If you consider price and quality balance I strongly advise this place. Enjoy

I ordered the plate that had chicken pulled off the skewer, 3 falafel patties, humus, tahini,…read moretabbouleh salad, pickles and pita bread. The chicken was perfectly cooked, with good flavor. 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.

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!
