I've been in several times. Nice cafe near the Vesnegiler metro station. Like everywhere else in the tourist center, they invite you (the competition is high, if you don't invite you, the neighbor will invite you). There is a lot of traffic, the waiters are bustling, but somehow there are surges (sometimes several guests and waiters come at once in soap, then there is a lull and then the waiters take turns going outside and start inviting guests), it may be related to transport, but this is not for sure. The food is delicious, but there are nuances - after 21:00 the grill for shawarma does not work, respectively, kebabs (in the common people - shawarma, including my favorite - doner kebab (open shawarma), this is when there is lavash on a plate, a slide of risk, a slide of finely chopped meat, a slide of onion, slices of pickled cucumber and a mound of pickled cabbage, and you decide how to eat them, mix or mix... ) no. On the one hand, this is good, there is an understanding that it will be fresh, but if, like me, you don't know this, you can stay with the light dinner option, and I went for it as a last resort, for one of the iconic national dishes((( We honestly admitted that the machine was already turned off and washed and There is no shawarma. In the end, I ordered a salad - good, chicken soup - turned out to be cream soup (delicious, very dense and rich, served with lemon), chicken skewer - a good, but a kind of option for girls, a burger that was forgotten in the rush (I was left without a kebab, and without a burger, well, maybe good because salad + soup + flatbread with starter putties = already full) and tea (in street food, Turkish wins for me - the price is half as low, but served in a transparent glass, where I clearly see the color and transparency, and because of the shape of the glass cools more slowly, which is valuable, tea is needed drink hot) with delicious baklava. Basically, it's a good place, on the way from the subway to the tram, you can go in and eat, but there's no shawarma in the evening.

Everything is fresh and delicious. We lived near this cafe, so we visited this place several times. Chicken and lentil soup is a great solution if you are frozen during a walk, it will warm you from the inside out) The service is excellent, the guys are trying very hard. Dessert with ice cream in puff pastry with nuts is something incredible, unfortunately I didn't remember the name and didn't even have time to take a picture- they ate it so quickly, but it's incredibly delicious! Adana kebab 🔥 I also recommend pide with cheese. The prices are reasonable, I recommend the place!
