Jan W.May 29, 2015The vegetarian dishes are overwhelming. Everything tasted so good. This is a must go.
Julie ConstanceMay 1, 2019We had the spicy lamb kebab and the green lemonade. Excellent. Nice table on the street.
Bespar MacApril 26, 2022Looks like a canteen but the food is really delicious, everything we tried was great!
Ozlem InceJuly 25, 2019Visiting here for 20 years. Today i have tried "asude" first time. I love it.
Asli Adinir OktayDecember 1, 2018This place is overated and touristic.. eventhough there are variety of different, special courses,they are served cold..
Anke NehrenbergMarch 31, 2019A bit touristy since it’s been on Netflix’ Chefs Table, but the food is really good...
It's not obvious from the menu, but you're free to order half-portion of pretty much anything. Consider doing this if you want to taste more various dishes.

Try "soğanli". I am sure you will like it. It is a kind of Turkish pizza, 'lahmacun'.
Cagatay @IstanbulSeptember 2, 2016Any food, any day is a specialty from the heart of Anatolia, yummy!- LianaMarch 26, 2013Serving up authentic, home cooked regional Turkish food found in no other restaurants in town. A must visit.
Everything that eat here was so good. my fav restaurant in istanbul👍
Onur GundayMay 25, 2013Ultra high prices for a below-average kebaps. Try non-kebap dishes and special candies. If you are coming to try good antep kebap go somewhere else.
Alan GordonJuly 4, 2013Amazing food! Totally worth taking the ferry over from Sultanahmet to Kadiköy
Rana ÖnoğluJuly 4, 2016Be careful about termly foods. They sell the traditional Ramadan dessert "Güllaç" for 13 tl. Other desserts' prices are reasonable, but 13 tl is sooo expensive for such an ordinary Güllaç.
BernerFebruary 20, 2012This is the best meal in Turkey...ask the waiter to give you the chefs sampler. You will not be dissapointed
Ali ÖzbekSeptember 20, 2017authentic yes, good quality service yes, decent enough taste yes. but nothing justifies their prices, 40tl for a meat dish - you'd need 3 to feel full - in irrational. avoid.
Abdulrahman AlshamsiJune 3, 2015Here is my honest review, the food is totally normal like any other kebab resturant in Istanbul. No menu everything is ready apart from kebab that you order separately & Its expensive for nothing 4/10
One of my favorite places in Kadikoy if I want some authentic meal!
Order the Katmer, it's wonderful. But be careful because your date might get jealous!
Sibel Ülüş HatinoğluMarch 31, 2014lahmacun is not good as expected. It was much better before. icli kofte and yogurtlu kebap aren't satisfactory. as a whole, service and food aren't good value for money. better try other Ciya across.

Çiya... Adı gibi yüksek dağ başlarını ve dağ çiçeklerini çağrıştırıyor. Eskiden yalnız iyi bir kebap ve iyi bir lahmacun için gidilen ve adını bilenlerin bile ne anlama geldiğini ancak sorarak öğrenebildiği bu yuvadan "Çiya" markasıyla bir "Sofra" da doğdu.

"For real Turkish food, one of the best in İstanbul. Especially their yoghurt and desserts are my favorite. Be careful they only accept cash money, no credit cards."
