Ehli Tat Lokantasi — Restaurant in Beyoğlu

If you're looking for an authentic Turkish dining experience in Istanbul, then the cozy and old Turkish food places served with self-service in the back of the tower are an absolute must-visit. These hidden gems not only offer delicious cuisine but also provide a glimpse into the city's rich history and charm.❤️❤️❤️

The first thing that struck me upon entering one of these establishments was the cozy ambiance. The interior decor exuded a traditional and rustic vibe, with warm lighting, vintage furniture, and charming details that transported me back in time. The walls were adorned with local artwork and photographs, creating an inviting and nostalgic atmosphere.💯💯💯🗽✔️

✔️The self-service aspect added an element of uniqueness to the dining experience. As I made my way to the back of the tower, I found a counter where an array of tantalizing Turkish dishes 😋😋was on display. The selection was impressive, ranging from hearty kebabs and savory stews to flavorful mezes and fresh salads. It was a feast for the eyes, and the self-service allowed me to choose exactly what I desired, adding a personal touch to my meal.😇

One of the highlights of these cozy 😍and old Turkish food places was the quality of the food itself. Every dish I tried was bursting with authentic flavors and made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The kebabs were tender and succulent, seasoned to perfection and grilled to smoky perfection. The mezes were vibrant and full of distinct Mediterranean flavors, providing a delightful burst of taste with every bite. The traditional Turkish desserts were the perfect sweet ending to the meal, with options like baklava and Turkish ice cream that left me craving for more.

Moreover, the staff at these establishments were friendly and welcoming, always ready to offer recommendations or answer any questions I had about the menu or Turkish cuisine in general. Their passion for the food and the history behind it added an extra layer of appreciation to the overall...

A nice place where you can be sure that everything that you eat is delicious. The staff is friendly, the restaurant and everything is really clean, food is always fresh. I’m was a kind of person that would never go eat in a local place (I was thinking that the food is no good or that hygiene is not at it’s best) but after my friends insisted to go there I was so happy that my opinion of this places was so wrong. This place opened my eyes for a whole new way where to eat when I travel. We have been in that area of the city for 4 days and at least once daily we ate at this restaurant and every time the quality was high and nothing was wrong or not tasty. The place is really clean and everyone (from staff to clients) are really polite.

Definitely a place where to eat if you are...

This is a place where locals mostly eat. Me and my family likes to eat where locals frequent most so we will know the culture at it's best. And truly this is a gem hidden just a stone's throw away from Istiklal Caddesi where most of the shops are expensive and overrated. We love the food and it is really cheap. We got a lot of dishes for 40tl and it's a total for 3 people already. We love it and we kept coming back during our stay in Beyoglu. The food is delicious and you got a variety to choose from. It is better than looking at a menu where u don't actually know what's coming to be served on ur plate. Now that we are far from IST, my family and i missed this local cafeteria (lokantasi). Highly...
