Beautiful place, great location, great staff. We stopped here for a quick lunch and tried Munti , doner kebab and tea. While we loved the doner kebab, the Munti was slightly chewy.

If u are tired from walking around & seeing the sights, there’s one place for ur lunch in a very peaceful place called @houseofmedusa

🔹Food & Drinks. Quite varied menu will give u a choice of meat, chicken & seafood made in traditional Turkish style, where u’ll obviously find something to ur taste. If u are not familiar with cuisine, menu will give u explanation in different languages & plus u can see it in a picture as to have understanding how it looks like. All dishes are fresh, good quality & extremely tasty. My chicken shish kebab & stewed chicken with almonds & cream were very juicy, fresh & pieces of chicken were extremely soft, tender & melting in mouth. Both these dishes were served with stuffing pilaf (very tasty & flavored).

🔹Service & Ambience. Service is fast & accurate. Staff is very friendly, helpful, obliging & hospitable. Very big advantage - they speak & understand English very well, so they can give u quite good explanation or advice according the menu. Ambience - that’s a separate thing which you should take notice. Outside sitting in terrace. Quite bright & calm at the same time. Appealing for chilling, relaxing & taking a break. Looks as green garden hidden from people’s eyes.

🔹Music. Always relaxing, calm or old school jazz & retro.

🔹Location. Extremely convenient. Only few minutes walking from Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia & Topkapi Palace.

🔹Rating. Solid 5 out of 5.
