Bento Noodles Yeldeğirmeni — Restaurant in Kadıköy

[Edit review again 2023. Aug. 29 because restaurant replied to my review.] --- did you even read my review? I said "edit the review after several visits" so that means this review is written long long time ago (i wrote it when you just opened your restaurant) but i edited the review recently after visiting, so the review is with old photo. I didnt attach any new photos because i didn't take any photos this time. I hope understand this point. Also, you said the staff was embarrassed for the paper bag and show this emotion. Well, I am not sure if anyone can say 'eyeroll' with a big sigh is same as 'embarrassed' emotion.. :) he was definitely judging and got annoyed by the situation which was not caused by me.:) this is my experience after visiting your restaurant recently. Before when there was a short hair woman for the waitress, the service was better.

Edit the review after several visits. They became very popular and busy, honestly I'm happy for them and even me i am glad that i can enjoy not bad quality asian food in kadıköy. However, there were some changes. The staff was so rude. Paper bag that they gave us tore down while we walking, we back and asked the staff another one, but the man did eyeroll and sigh instead of saying sorry 🤣 we could almost have made all the food fall down because of the restaurant uses thin af cheap paperbag and he thinks we are annoying! Also, some menus are not available for take away. While explaining this he got mad somehow and be rude again. Lol. Also this restaurant has link in their Instagram bio, i clicked and it was available to put menus to the basket and make whatsapp order. So i did, i was waiting answer from their whatsapp, no answer and no reply to the call. So i had to go to the restaurant and order and take it by myself. When my fried asked why is whatsapp order on your website not working? And he said well it doesnt work. I don't understand why they do not remove this function on their website. It makes people think that we can order from whatsapp.

Their gimbap is pretty authentic so i was surprised and happy but rude staff...

“Katsu” noodles had more American flavor than Asian, there was a lot of cheddar cheese, which had acidic flavor (May be it was a “cheese” sauce from bottle), noodles were dry. Chicken was fantastic - very crunchy outside and juicy inside, tankotsu sauce was too sweet. It wasn’t enough asian flavor to me.

Second noodles we ordered was “Dynamite”, but they messed up our order and cooked completely different type of noodles. May be it’s a good idea to write down with a pen when people make an order? Cause working lady doesn’t even write anything down, she asked us what we want and continued cleaning tables, no wonder orders get mixed. But they gave an apology, it was nice.

Waiting for food was too long, 50-60 minutes.

Second time we ate here we ordered “Kung pao” and “Manchurian” chicken… Kung pao didn’t have peanuts (which is a must-have), it wasn’t the real Kung pao at all, I don’t know why they call it so. All dishes tastes the same, I didn’t feel much difference.. same deep fried chicken, same type of noodles in all dishes, same bean sprouts. So if you don’t know what to order - no worries, you won’t miss anything special.

Interior is cozy, but nothing Asian about it.

It was an interesting experience. I find these noodles quite dry for my taste. I would come back to try ramen. We have been here two times and they didn’t have ramen both times.

Could be cool if somebody opened a second Asian cafe in Kadikoy, this is a good chance for opening a better business with...
