    Stained-glass windows and marble finishings give this old-school Nişantaşı kebab spot a look that somehow feels both neighborhood canteen and faded drawing room. It's been around forever, and the regulars clearly never considered going anywhere else. The Gaziantep-style lahmacun, loaded with vegetables and parsley, and the lamb sausage and minced beef kebab are the ones everyone orders. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks with the prices.

    • Lahmacun

      “Take, for instance, the Gaziantep version of spicy lahmacun (Turkish pizza), generously topped with vegetables and parsley, or the kebab with lamb sausages and minced beef – both are house favourites.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
