Was Anonym at Istanbul a mag?
On Christmas Eve, we anticipated a quick and basic meal, but instead, we enjoyed an absolutely delicious dinner featuring freshly grilled meat, perfectly cooked rice, and a vibrant salad. All of this came at a reasonable price and was served by very courteous young staff. It was a wonderful experience and a delightful surprise. Thank you, folks; we will definitely return!

What Anonym dislikes about Istanbul:
The food was delicious and incredibly affordable. I have no complaints. The portions were quite generous for one person. I came with a woman, and we both had more than enough to eat. View all feedback.

Today, I tried the kebab at this restaurant and it was very fresh and delicious. It is definitely worth a try and I will definitely be returning. I highly recommend it as it is different from other restaurants.

After considering the criticisms of Istanbul restaurant being scruffy, it may not be the ideal spot for a lavish outing with family and friends. However, if you are in the mood for a decent meal at an affordable price, this is a fantastic option. The staff is friendly and the chef even checked in on our meal. We brought our own wine and enjoyed a starter, main course, baklava, and instant coffee for £30 for two people. My partner and I both agreed that we would happily return in the future.

The food at this restaurant is exactly what you would expect - home-cooked and delicious. The staff are friendly and provide a welcoming atmosphere. We had a cozy, homey experience while dining here. The lentil soup we tried was packed with flavor, and we look forward to trying the other home-cooked stews offered off-menu. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant again and again.
