not bad but average. hünkar beğendi was okay (hence the name) but not exquisite as it could have been. pazı dolma was rather like a wrapped meatball, nohut a disappointment. only su böreği was quite good.

I had an amazing dinner here with a group of colleagues and acquaintances. We ordered a starter plate consisting of artichoke, lima beans, and root celery; a hot starter plate of courgette tempura served with yoghurt, cheese layered borek, and Mucver; a seasonal salad; Hunkar Begendi (puréed eggplant base) served with lamb; and some traditional Turkish deserts. The food was delicious, and the service was exquisite.

The place is very nice, staff is friendly and well trained. I liked potato soup very much. Cherry juice and salad was tasty as well. For the main ordered ottoman traditional food named Hunkar begeindi - eggplant puree topped with meat, however I didn’t like it much, seems you must be familiar with the food or something like that. For the dessert we had reddish watermelon 🍉 extremely nice and turkish cookies sekerpare - which was super sweet.

Delicious as always. We ate fried vegetables, lamb, su böreği, karınbudu and tomayo salad. All were perfect. There is a mouthwash in the WC. Great idea!
