** A Very Disappointing Experience – Poor Service and Misleading Gluten-Free Options**
We specifically chose this restaurant because they advertise gluten-free options, which is essential for my wife due to her gluten allergy. However, what followed was nothing short of a frustrating experience.
We ordered a gluten-free pide, but what arrived at our table was a lahmacun. When we questioned the waiter, he casually responded that "since it's gluten-free, it looks like that." This explanation was completely unacceptable—gluten-free or not, a pide and a lahmacun are distinct dishes.
After a brief discussion, the waiter changed his stance, insisting that while the dish looked like a lahmacun, its ingredients were those of a pide. Again, a ridiculous claim. Eventually, he admitted that the restaurant does not have a separate oven for gluten-free dishes, meaning they cannot actually prepare gluten-free pide. Yet, they still charge for it as if it were a genuine gluten-free option! If a proper gluten-free dish cannot be prepared, this should be made clear **before** taking orders, instead of misleading customers.
To make matters worse, we also ordered a regular lahmacun, and its base was completely burnt—another disappointment in an already frustrating visit.
Overall, this experience was unacceptable due to both poor service and the lack of honesty regarding gluten-free offerings. If you value transparency and quality, I cannot recommend this place.
Very intimate and clean place, we came after reading the nice reviews for the gluten free menu (it really was). Joseph served us with great kindness and precision, very good typical food. I highly recommend it and hope to return soon.

I invite all Italians to stop by this restaurant to try both the typical dishes and the decidedly positive situation.
I am celiac and I had a great time eating in this place, attentive to the customer's requests when ordering and precise in the delivery of the dishes, repeating several times that the dish was gluten free.
I felt very comfortable, I ate peacefully with my family and it was truly exciting.
I tried meat dishes, fish and side dishes: special!
try it and believe it.
pampered and accompanied by the nicest and most friendly waiter I have ever met!
Super friendly place, run by a lovely couple , serving healthy and wholesome food without sugar, gluten or dairy. Home to the many street animals due to owners’ kindness, a cozy run-away to treat yourself to the best you deserve
We chose hidden garden as my wife is coeliac. Tables are in a lovely open space ( an oasis!) in rear of restaurant in their hidden garden. All staff were great, lovely setting and truly amazing food !! The manager Polat was very knowledgeable for my wife’s dietary needs. Lots of places to choose from in Istanbul but we would come back here for the food and the experience.
Favorite spot on our trip in Istanbul. I am Celiac and they knew about gluten free here, and had options from a lot of the menu items. The service here was wonderful with a lot of attention to detail. Very nice, and fast service. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was lovely even on a packed Friday night. Thank you so much and we will be back.
This restaurant was recommended by one of the local hotels. Worth the five stars and more. The service is great and staff are very attentive. Amazing environment with good view from the restaurant too overlooking the harbour. Food choices are endless and I was surprised to see a selection for gluten free. Visited twice and both visits were just as amazing as the other.

I recommend this restaurant to eat in Capadoccia.
I am celiac and they were very careful since they have tac-free food.
One of the waiters cannot consume gluten either and gives a lot of peace of mind.
In fact, I repeated it on my second day.
