There is some seating inside and the owner was pleasant enough. We asked for mix of two of everything which was 16TL or $8. A think it's priced by kilo. We took the box home and ate a few pieces with some coffee. It was all very good. I would go again if I had a sweet craving.

Best baklava in Turkey. I had the cream and pistachio kinds (in the yelp photo, they're the…read moretriangle shape and bottom right with green on top, respectively). Traveled multiple cities in Turkey and made it a point to eat baklava at different places in all of them...and this was the best quite easily, and for a better price than most. I even got some to take back to the home. I went to the famous Istanbul spot Gulluoglu (sp?) and found it just average. If you're in Sultanmeht, Altinoglu is worth the short hike. If you're at the Grand Bazaar, it's barely a 10 minute walk down a hill, a straight shot on a street that is directly south of the GB and runs north to south. Look at a map. Off the beaten tourist path and in a local neighborhood. BTW I promise they didn't pay me to write this. I'm just a baklava fanatic and this was really just that good.

This was my friend, Alisha, and my first time trying out Turkish Breakfast. The owner of the…read morecafe/shop, Ece, was really kind. She recommended several dishes and treated us like VIP guests. While waiting for the orders, I noticed a lot of people come in and out of the store buying organic and baked goods. So this place is a cafe, restaurant, and shop. I love the vibe because it's so cozy, cute, welcoming, and fun. The employees are very kind and attentive. The food was delicious, I loved everything! I can't remember the name of the dishes because they are in Turkish. But I have to say, I was very happy with how everything we ordered tasted. The omelette with tomatoes was one of my favorites. It comes in a little pan served on a plate. I also love the plate with different condiments and cheeses and a boiled egg. The egg was perfectly boiled. The butter with honey was to die for! It's so soft and light, the honey really goes well with it. Moreover, the baked goods are really fresh and delicious, especially the baklava. I also got dates, almonds, a spicy paste sauce (in a jar), and dried apple piece to go. I shared them with friends in the States, and the food is DELICIOUS. Ece had told Alisha and I that the food is from villages in Turkey, a lot of them from Izmir. Overall, the food was out of this world, service was great, and Turkish teas were really good. Thank you so very much Ece and the employees!!! P.S.: The restroom is downstairs next to the kitchen. It's pretty tiny, but really cute and clean.

At this time of year, it's a lovely place to warm yourself after an afternoon of browsing through the picturesque winding streets and colourful shops. The café has an assortment of reasonably priced cakes, pastries, toasted buns and sandwiches should you feel peckish and of course, a full range of tea and coffee. It's airy yet cosy ambiance is spoilt only by the heavy presence of security in the little square outside (which I suppose we should be thankful for) but still, it's well worth a visit. Waste NOT.

Their filter coffee is good and doesn't taste like the filter paper as it does in some other area shops. Also, their selection of pastries and sweets is larger and more varied than the other shops.

My friends and I also had some cheesecake, carrot cake and marble cake and we enjoyed all of them so you can get your sweet on here as well.
