very tasty kebabs, prices are not super expensive
there are a lot more super expensive restaurants in the historical part
, so the prices here are quite adequate
, the service is also good, not slow, not fast, usually
I don't recommend it.
They cheat - they try other dishes at a price 3 times higher. We were cheated out of 620 lira - we got 2 soups for 900 instead of 2 soups for 280
If you decide to go here, immediately take pictures of the menu, write down in a note what you ordered with the prices and carefully check the receipt before payment!
The waiter also requires a tip of 10% "for service" - do not be fooled, the standard percentage is from 5% to 10% if you really liked it.
That's great! Incredibly delicious, always. The best place, the best people who work almost around the clock, an oven (not a gas stove!) that never goes out, recipes that were passed from hand to hand, the "garden of lost cultures and forgotten tastes" — this is very accurate. A gastronomic journey, "from Mesopotamia to the Ottoman Empire, from the Balkans to the Caucasus and from Asia to the Arabian Peninsula." Such an interest in culture and history is admirable. "The respect you feel for your work is a sign of self—respect" is the motto of the founders of Chii. And it is felt in everything. The New York Times wrote about them, one of the "Chef's Table" series is dedicated to them, but they remain a very sincere, homely restaurant where you are always welcome and always taken care of.
Sevgili Çiya! İyi şanlar! Çok teşekkürler!
We came here because of the good reviews. The kebab is really a fire. But the service and prices do not correspond to each other. The service is lower than expected, and the prices are quite high. We took two cheese kebabs (I repeat: the meat is flying) for 980 lire. Judge the price for yourself, but it's really delicious there.
Very tasty, one of the best places in Istanbul.
Objectively expensive, even by Moscow standards, but for one of the best kebabs that I've tried, I give 5 stars
A wonderful place, which is very appreciated by the locals, was brought here by a Turkish colleague. I am a vegetarian, but I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of non-meat positions. The meat ones are probably great too. Go, you won't regret it.
Delicious, the chicken in the kebab is incredibly tender. A flatbread was brought as a gift. They didn 't cheat like in the neighboring establishments ✌🏽
Those who go to the restaurant for Instagram photos should not come here. For those who appreciate really delicious food, come here. It's very, very tasty. The sweetest waiter. A homely atmosphere.
My God, I finally found a place where you can try almost the entire repertoire of the restaurant in small portions! If you are a fan of this, this is the place for you. I did not eat at the kebab point, but at çiya Sofrasi, I recommend going there, although the kebab is also very good. Awesome combinations, all the dishes are fresh and everything will be thoroughly explained to you. I highly recommend this place if you sail to the Asian part, start exploring from Kadıkoy and from this restaurant!
The quality of the waiter is zero,leaving the plate is not to serve.You ask three times and then get up and go to the cash register and ask for wet wipes.
