I’m visiting Turkey for the first time ever and this place honestly blew me away! Located in a beautiful alley next to Galata Tower, a modern and inviting bistro for sure! I came here for brunch with my travel buddies but ended up returning for an afternoon bite as well. I got to try a vegan sandwich with beets and arugula and also a steak sandwich later that day! Both of those were amazing sandwiches with an unexpectedly complex palette of tastes! The modern pieces of art give an extra layer of charm to the place! I can’t wait to visit Turkey again, I’ll definitely include this place in my plans for the next time as well!

This place is a gem in Istanbul. From the food and atmosphere to the ambiance and art - every detail feels thoughtfully curated. The staff were really friendly, and the food was delicious. I can only speak in superlatives. Even the restroom had a lovely interior design, complete with a beautiful lamp. Highly recommend!
