Murat Kelle Paça — Restaurant in Beyoğlu

I had such a wonderful dining experience here in Sirkeci. The kebab was cooked to perfection — tender, flavorful, and beautifully seasoned. What impressed me even more was the soup; it was rich, comforting, and full of depth, the kind of dish that makes you feel instantly at home. Every bite reminded me why Turkish cuisine is so special.

The service was also exceptional. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, and they made me feel truly welcome. They explained the menu with care, checked in at the right moments, and added a personal touch that elevated the whole experience. It wasn’t just about the food, but the warm hospitality that made the meal memorable.

The atmosphere was relaxed yet vibrant, perfect for enjoying authentic Turkish dishes while still feeling comfortable. I could see both locals and travelers around me enjoying their meals, which speaks volumes about the quality and consistency of this place.

Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Sirkeci. If you want not only delicious kebabs and hearty soups but also genuine hospitality, this is the place to go. I will definitely come back on my next trip...

Come to find out, that the menu was diverse encompassing the staple Turkish dishes. Namely the kebab assortment with liver and juicy pieces of charred (well done how I personally like it cooked) boneless chicken breast, wings, lamb, etc. And going back to lamb head and feet soup, it was something to die for…I mean I don’t even opt for things like that. Staying here for a few more days, but I promise I will frequent this almost every day that I’m here at least once. The staff Behjed (I think? that was his name) was very warm...

An Unforgettable Experience at Murat Kalle Pace 🇹🇷

I’ve spent a lot of time traveling across Turkey — from the heart of Ankara, the magical landscapes of Cappadocia, the vibrant city of Istanbul, and even the beautiful Aegean islands: Bozcaada, Gökçeada, and Cunda. But I can honestly say that I haven’t found a restaurant as impressive as Murat Kalle Pace.

The food here is absolutely fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. You can taste the quality in every bite — truly a treat for your taste buds.

The staff are incredibly polite, friendly, and professional. Their warm hospitality makes the whole dining experience even more enjoyable.

And the prices? Very fair and budget-friendly, especially considering the high quality of food and service.

If you’re anywhere nearby, Murat Kalle Pace is a must-visit. It’s a hidden gem that stands out among restaurants not just in Istanbul, but all...
