Traditionelle vegane türkische Küche - Edit
Die Besitzerin, die selbst seit über 20 Jahren vegan lebt, bereitet sehr leckere, vegane, traditionelle türkische Gerichte zu. Das Essen ist nicht nur schmackhaft, sondern auch sehr preiswert. Ich kann es jedem empfehlen!

Bestes veganes Restaurant in Istanbul - Edit
Das ist das beste vegane Restaurant in Istanbul! Die Besitzerin erzählte uns, dass sie seit 20 Jahren vegan lebt und die traditionellen türkischen Speisen vegan nachkocht. Das Essen war super lecker, wir waren während unseres Urlaubes mehrfach dort. Man fühlt sich sehr willkommen und fühlt sich gleich wie zuhause. Wir werden definitiv wiederkommen!

Lots of choice and generous portion - Edit
Causal spot where you can choose various options/dishes for a set price (150 TL for 3 options, 180 TL for 4) amongst other things. Lots of very appealing dishes to choose from and the portion ends up very generous, especially for the low prices. The food wasn’t huge on flavour but I really liked this place and what they’re doing!

Amazing little place - must visit!! - Edit
The little restaurant itself is basic, however the food is absolutely gorgeous, is all homemade and the staff are friendly and helpful. We went for dinner one night and were so impressed we came back the next day for lunch. 3 options are 150 lira, 4 options are 180 lira (which is super cheap for Istanbul). They have homemade kombucha and will squeeze pomegranate or oranges for fresh juice. There is also homemade baklava on the counter as well as chocolate cake and some gluten free biscuits. Everything we picked was delicious.

The best vegan restaurant in Turkey!! - Edit
The best vegan restaurant in Istanbul, maybe in all of Turkey. The food is freshly made every day with love and passion. It is a family business, the woman is incredibly nice and speaks good English. The portions are great and they certainly do not cut corners. The food can even be neatly packed so that you can take it with you on the plane or while traveling. Of all the vegan restaurants in Istanbul, they have the most delicious vegan baklava. It is definitely worth a visit for a meal, snack, vegan ayran or something sweet like baklava.

Buffet Style Good Food - Edit
A lovely little cafe with a buffet style menu. You basically had to pick a certain amount of dishes and then they brought it to you on a plate.
Read moreThe staff were friendly, it was very cheap (probably the cheapest we’ve eaten so far in Instanbul) and you got a decent amount of food.
Definitely worth a visit, especially if you’re on a budget.
Pros: Very cheap, Large portions, Friendly staff
Cons: None

Great food! - Edit
I went for the 5 choices which was very filling and at a great price. The food was very tasty and full of flavour. I’d personally recommend the vine leaves and the falafel. They were amazing. The owners were very friendly. It had a very homely vibe to the atmosphere and the food. If you want great tasting no fuss Turkish food this is the place for you.

Super food, very basic establishment - Edit
We really enjoyed the 5 option meal for an amazing TL525 for two of us, including a soft drink. The ambiance was lacking even though the people were very welcoming and the price was amazing.

Lovely and local - Edit
The front sign, right outside the shop, shows you the prices and invites the reader to "Go Vegan". I thought this was lovely and set the mood for the whole meal.
Read moreThe food was great and there was a vast selection. The lady behind the counter spoke little English but was extremely kind and polite.
It's, like other places in Istanbul, a "buffet" restaurant, meaning that you get a plate with 3/4/5 different options of what they offer. We loved it. You can really get a fully nutritious meal, with carbs, protein, fats, and plenty of veggies. Or you can just get carbs and fats if that's your thing! The choice is totally yours.
The building in which the restaurant is located is a bit old, but we didn't mind it at all.
We spent around 500 TLA for two 4 options meal and two fresh orange juices.
I would 10/10 go again.
Pros: Vast selection, Affordable prices, "Go Vegan" sign

Perfect place to try authentic food - Edit
If you want to get to know authentic turkish food in a vegan version, this is the place. You will get up to five different dishes to try (although the meal is really big with five options). It’s very tasty, cheaper than other vegan restaurants and the staff is very kind and friendly. They speak English, so no communication issues.

Home-cooked food - Edit
My boyfriend and I had lunch here, and surprisingly, no one else was there. As other reviews mentioned, the portions were quite big and made us instantly full. The food felt like something you’d try in a Turkish home—nothing fancy, but really yummy.

I visited this place a few times earlier in the year while I was in Istanbul. Pick from a selection of premade dishes and they'll heat them and bring a massive bowl to the table.

Best vegan food in Istanbul - Edit
This was by far the best meal we had in Istanbul! All homemade food and every dish we tried was incredible. Also incredibly cheap! We got two giant plates of food for $12 US dollar/ 360 TRY. You must go here if you are in Istanbul!
