The place is calm and amazingly decorated w/ a patio. The food and service a great, but they make you pay extra for the bread and butter that they bring even if you didn't ask for it. Tho it's good !

It's one of the oldest and best vegetarian restaurants in the city. Their food originates from both Eastern and Western cuisines. They bake their own bread and use seasonal produce in the kitchen. Read more

One of the best and cutest vegetarian restaurants in Turkey. When you are in the Taksim area you should give Zencefil a try even if you are not a vegetarian. Highly recommend the homemade ginger soda.

Zencefil is a very cozy restaurant. Besides good food and nice ambiance, they have good taste in music. You should definitely visit this place on a regular basis if you enjoy eating vegetarian.

Cozy and colorful interior. Reasonably priced alcoholic drinks available alongside your vegan/vegetarian treat

Wild cafe. Just puts you on a shock when you enter. Great indoors and patio to relax.

Cute place but unfortunately the staff is not very friendly. Kind of place made for tourists ( avoid places in istanbul where trip advisor stickers are shown on the door) prices are too high

Zencefil’s homemade ice creams have interesting flavors but sound better than they taste.

İç açıcı renklerle gerçekten sıcak bir atmosferi var. Menü haricinde minik kara tahtadan seçeceğiniz yemeklerden pişman olmayacaksınız. Sebzeli firik pilavı sağlıklı ve lezzetli bir seçim olabilir.

Otantik. Gerçekten vejeteryanler için harika bir yer. İstiklal caddesinin hemen bir kaç sokak altında. Yeni yapılan Taksim Camine çok yakın. Fiyatlar öyle çok aşırı değil, ucuzda değil tabi. Alkol var

İstiklal Caddesi Kurabiye Sokak’ta 1993’de Ferda Erdinç’in açtığı Zencefil İstanbul’un ilk yaratıcı vejetaryen lokantası. Ekmekleri, ot yemekleri, mücverleri ve kişleri mutlaka tadılmalı. -Müge Akgün Read more

Yemeklerin hepsi güzel.. ekmekler harika... keyifli, sakin bir yemek ve güleryüzlü hizmet için Beyoğlu'nda kalan ender yerlerden biri. En son balkabaklı mücver yedim süperdi.
