The mood is semi casual and a bit of classy. Although bbq is their main, you MUST try the dessert which serves with pistachio pan cake and a vanilla bondruma (Turkish Icecream) on top. It was my best dessert ever in my life and I miss it so much

Even though it's expensive due to its location and neighbourhood, and knowing that their restaurant…read morein Samatya have better prices, I still like this place. Actually I don't like classy places but this restaurant is nice. The food is great, service is good. You pay a lot but hey, you don't go there to eat every day ;) There is a valet service so you can leave your car at the gate. If you have kids, upstairs they have a huge play room with classic toys as well as electronic toys, in order to satisfy kids of all ages. Also, during the important footbaal (soccer) games between Turkish teams you can watch the TV.

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

I would normally never, ever in 1,000 years review a fast food joint. But I hope that someone,…read moresomewhere, who has more control over fast food joints reads this and it is meaningful for them. So why would I, someone who cares about their health and has access to a wide variety of tasty, delicious, healthy foods every day (with no limits on cost thanks to company lunch card), EVER choose a fast food burger joint? Carl's Jr, ladies and gentlemen, is doing it right. HOW DO THEY DO IT? They have managed to create the perfect pork-less bacon burger. It's sweet, it's BBQy, it's tender, the bun is of the fluffiest bun-making material I've ever been acquainted with. Also, their service is perfect. Those guys are so well-trained it puts every waiter, everywhere, at every cash register, to shame. Go there on your bad days. Come out a winner.

Delicious. After travelling 16 days in Turkey I needed a burger, and what better place is there…read morethan this? While walking here through the super cool Taksim neighborhood, we passed the butcher shop that sells and showcases the meats that this restaurant serves. It was a cool opportunity to both see, and eat, the high quality meats that they have. Also, the fries were perfect, and unsalted. I added my own salt and pepper and these heavy pepper/salt grinders are the coolest!! The decor is clean and interesting, with some outdoor seating too. And free wi-fi. Really hip spot!

Food here is delicious but the portions are on the smaller side compared to most Turkish…read moreestablishments. We came here on our last night in Istanbul, after having ordered at tons of restaurants both in Turkey and Greece. At each establishment, my husband and I were able to share a mixed grill and be STUFFED. Not here! Kasabim is a bit pricier and with smaller portions than a lot of other local establishments, but it is also slightly more upscale. So, we left a little hungry but it was totally our own fault--to be fair our lovely server did mention that the portions were not large. The food itself was FAB, but if you're hungry don't expect typical Turkish doner or kebab portions. The vibe here is very relaxing, the service is superb, and I enjoyed the experience thoroughly. I would return if I were in the area again.
