The owner have also their own butchery since over 60 years! If you prefer other turkish grilled products, you will find them on the menu! Te Burger are also delicious and if you order the Steak, you should order some french fries too! They must be handmade and are the best french fries I've ever had! ( and I will compare them to those I had in one year living in NYC) You will find this Restaurant easily, when you go to the crowdy Sirasviller Caddesi and turn aft the Alman Hastani ( Hospital) and after the nice Balik Savoy left on the Yeni Yuva street and then you have to turn right at he 4th street crossing your way up! You see the butchery on the left on the YeniYuva and turn into he small street passing he parking cars and see the nice Kasabim on the left!I wrote this critic after turning back from Istanbul, so I won't get any favours!But this Steak Restaurant really saved my soul living in that crowdy loud city!

Stopped by this place because we saw that they had a rooftop restaurant. It was on the 7th floor of…read moretheir hotel. It has a very nice outlook of the city, but the service and food were mediocre. It took very long for the lamb chomps that I ordered to come out. I ordered it medium rare, but it seemed to be cooked wayyyy over. Great views of the city during the night, but not the biggest fan of their food. Good views of Istanbul here

We ordered turkish coffee (classic), hummus and pita for the table to share, and an omelette each. The pita they gave was GIGANTIC. Like titanic-sized. Like bigger than my head. The hummus was exceptional. The omelette was also gigantic now that I think about it. Omelette walls were thin and the tomato sauce inside was delicious. Alright I think that's enough

All the food is home cooked by the owner, who is an artist. She has decorated the room with her art and even made the furniture. The food is amazing! You'd better love cats and dogs because they are part of the experience. Our best dining experience so far in Istanbul.

The food at dafne was outstanding. When Arif came up to us when we were walking down the street, he had told us if it was great but not very great, it would be free. Well it was VERY GREAT. From the lentil to the kofte. Everything had such an amazing flavor. I never have tasted such tender and flavorful chicken kabob before. There was not one thing we had that wasn't good. We went there 6 times in 3 days. The service was top notch. When we were just walking by after a long day of site seeing, we would stop by and say hello, and they would always invite us in for tea. Just an amazing experience. Would recommend to anyone traveling to this part of Istanbul. Well sure be back next year. Defne Herkese çok teşekkür ederim!

The Turkish cuisine was tender and savory, but we couldn't have been more ignored than a pair of lepers on the street. Only until the end of the meal were we first asked by the server how it tasted. And the owner made rounds and grand gestures to everyone around-- but not us. At one point the restaurant invited a trio of musicians to entertain all customers, but it was so tacky when they went around asking for tips upon leaving. After we coyly asked the owner where these mysterious 'surprises' were did he have two drinks delivered to us on the house. This place would have gotten a higher rating without the empty promises; so would I come again? Defne-tly not!

The menu features something and entrees for everyone be it vegetables, chicken, fish or lamb! Flavors of the food were very good. I loved the eggplant Kabap with the kofte's in between. We liked how the owner timed our food courses. They didn't just come out with the food all at once. They waited until we were almost done with the first course before going to the kitchen and getting the next course of food to our table. Super friendly owner and host there. Prices were good considering the portions we were served. A+ place where there was no rush and we left feeling very satisfied.
