Serene YeeOctober 27, 2015A great social dining place with big spaces. Extensive menu with both modern and traditional spin on Turkish foods make this a versatile place for all. Although, prices are steep for the portions.
FHop🎒🌐✈️July 26, 2014Love this place! Went back several times while in Istanbul. Traditional Turkish food with a modern twist. Great free Wi-Fi too!
RachaNovember 6, 2013Great place, cozy ambiance. The food is continental and very tasty; we had the cooked salmon & grilled pounded steak, also the fruit & almond tart is delightful. Very friendly staff.
Serene ToumaDecember 30, 2012Nice outdoor terrace for smokers. Great international menu, lovely service so far! They had no problem serving us only drinks at the table and were happy to make recommendations! Recommended! 
Nöra LölliepeSeptember 17, 2014Comfy outdoor seating, very cool and sparkling place. Superquick service, very wide food selection (veggie options as well). Thumbs up!
FerasJanuary 20, 2015Try the chicken and porcini mushroom pasta as a main course and the peanut and caramel brownie they're very good! Enjoy.
Alex ADSFebruary 19, 2015Laurel & Hardy like staff. Depending on what you're looking for, turkish meals are the smallest share among classic burgers, caesar salad and lasagna. Nor raki neither Efes Pilsen, just...Carlsberg !
Hakan KaptanJanuary 26, 2013I don't know why people complained about the service??I think everything was perfectly in order,the dish which i ordered was amazing and it certainly didn't take along time to arrive.i shall return ;)
gaphroditeOctober 20, 2015the waiters were polite n fun, schnitzel was ok, the french fries were great!the place is cozy, feels nice to dine there. Prices are higher from the cafés in this neighborhood
Kubra BasarMarch 15, 2016Its always packed but the waiters help you to find a place. Its Avocado salad is tasty, ask for adding a bit Kinoa in it. Its lemonade is a must.
Isa WzMarch 19, 2015Grilled Salmon Salad is delicious and the mini burger shouldn't be missed. Will be back tomorrow to try the deserts! The service is great too.
SvetiDecember 30, 2015Nice cosy atmosphere specially in winter. Tasty dessert with pecan nut. Prices are a bit high.

- ZakJanuary 2, 2016Food is nice, went there for breakfast, Menemen and french toast is a killer. Coffee is nice too Staff are friendly and welcoming
Varun ShettyAugust 4, 2013Pide and meatballs here are pure heaven. Order a lot of other things but make sure that dish is in your belly by the end of the meal.
Am GenatoMarch 25, 2015Everything on the menu is delicious. Try their lahmacun pizza, pastas and risotto. Free wifi. Nice & friendly staff.👌🙌
Antonis ZografosAugust 10, 2014Very nice atmosphere, nice music and cool at summer! We tried lemonade! Was superb! Dont miss this cafe...
Finally the great gesture came from the supervisor of the staff : they offered us our tea and tart for free. Nice and elegant attitude. Thanks to House Cafe istiklal ☺
DavidMarch 5, 2014The House Ice Tea (ginger) is perfect – just lightly sweet. And if you like beer, go for a brown Leffe.
Rose de VeraJanuary 20, 2016I liked the curried chicken here. Too pricey,though. I saw a waiter helping an old man go to the toilet. Very kind and polite.
Bernhard SchwartlanderFebruary 17, 2013Great place. Excellent food. Stylish design. Nice service. Must go.
Anna KApril 14, 2015Service is not the best but the decor and ambience make it well worth a visit : )

ömer YıldızSeptember 20, 2014i been here for drinking before, this is first time for dinner. So yummy... My suggestion is 'East and West Steak'
NimaDecember 19, 2015Its outdoor ambience is charming and you'll be served well if waiters be in a good mood.
Murad GürmeriçMarch 15, 2015Very nice location and environment for a pit stop on Istiklal Street. Huge menu
Murat TatlidilJanuary 7, 2011Ambiance quite nice, espacially at nights. Modern and minimal interior with Large and fresh restaurant space. Pizza margarita is delicious. Thin and Crispy.
Ceren TopalNovember 2, 2012You must try pizza in here. Especially "lahmacun pizza". Duck was a little dry but worth the taste.
Noah WeissSeptember 20, 2014Great vibe for working or hanging out and free wifi, but mediocre overpriced food. Better coffee options available all over the city.
Yong PatrickFebruary 23, 2014Really cool decor n music, but 2/10 for service n food. Just come in for a drink will be fine.
