Solo female traveller. Needed lunch before a conference. Really friendly and helpful. Great food and convenient. Waiter explained menu well (gluten free)

Yummy food, lots of variety. Wasn't to expensive compared to other areas in Istanbul. I am celiac and it was nice to have options for my partner who isn't celiac. Had yummy and beautiful looking desserts. Was too full to eat but took some away with us ❤️ If your near by you have to try....

The whole menu is great! There are incredibly delicious vegan, gluten-free and sugar-free food and beverages. The employees are also very attentive and polite. I just can't imagine what would have happened if the place was a little bigger🤍🧿

Good food and even better desserts. I am celiac and it was so nice to know that I could eat somewhere safe near Istanbul. Definitely would recommend.

We tried their pizza, it is one of the best gluten-free pizzas I have ever eaten!

EN The best gluten free food I ate hands down. Definitely worth giving it a try. I am not from Ankara but felt like a bit out of the city center but still it was not hard to reach we just walked there from Tunalı Hilmi. TR Without a doubt it was the best gluten free food I have ever eaten. Definitely worth trying. I am not from Ankara but it seemed a bit far from the center but it is definitely not in a hard place to reach, we walked from Tunalı Hilmi.

Kolcuoğlu Bomonti Ocakbaşı, a well-known name for Kolcuoğlu Kebap Restaurant, stands out from all other kebab restaurants in one important respect. It has created a great difference with its menu for celiacs. You have celiac disease and want to eat gluten-free lahmacun! This is just one example. It has a completely separate oven for the gluten-free menu. This is a very, very important awareness. The fact that smiling and positive employees are fully aware of the issue is also a great luxury. If you say the environment, it is also very warm. Thank you very much.

** 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.

Absolutely absurd cost for gluten free. Went based on the reviews advertising GF bread and was charged 390 lira EXTRA for my breakfast to replace my bread. Never seen prices like that before anywhere in the world. When I questioned it (as I assumed there was a mistake) the waiter insisted that is the cost

The person in this shop was very rude and barely let me finish my order! I was excited to find a gluten free pastry and I was planning to buy multiple items but this person decided that after 3 types he packs everything and asks me to pay!

We did shopping for our workplace, they are very nice, smiling and caring people. There are all kinds of foods that are gluten-free. If you are looking for such a place, be sure to visit it. Even if you are in another city, they can send the product you want by cargo.

Enrico Picari

All food is fresh and prepared at the moment. Everything on the menu is vegan and celiac people like me have glutenfree options (not the buns or pida though!). I had a lovely chat with the owner, who is really passionate about her job. I’ll come back for sure next time I’ll be in Istanbul!

Jacque Bertin

One of the delicious places to visit in Kadıköy. They even make the pita they put in the Iskender sandwich gluten-free, nice idea. If you ever pass by, I recommend you to stop by.

Merve Denizci

I really ate the most delicious bagel I have ever eaten, made with chickpea flour. It was a crispy Tap fresh bagel. There are smiling and attentive employees. It is a cafe under the stairs, so it does not attract much attention when passing by on the road, but it is definitely worth a visit for a gluten-free and healthy food experience.

Stephanie Winner

We wanted to try the authentic Ottoman foods and Matbah delivered! Some dishes are unusual - stuffed calamari and stuffed melon. My celiac husband received gluten-free bread and the menu was clearly labeled. Service was very good and we received a gift of a bead pendant at the end of our meal. We had visited Istanbul before and were very surprised that the restaurant was nearly empty by 10pm. The other diners were locals, Spaniards, and Americans.

Great options for all diets. Vegan and gluten free options - the homemade gf bread is fantastic! Breakfast spread was very good. Nice Turkish coffee too. The staff were lovely too.

Eda Canbulat Altınbaş

The burger was great and extremely filling, served with fries on the side. I'm sure other products are the same way. We will experience them too. Even though the shop was closed, he opened the shop and prepared our food just so that our diet would not be disrupted, we were very grateful for that🙏 There is no risk of cross contamination anyway, there is also a Gluten-free mini shopping section. My wife and I were very pleased, the attention and service were excellent ❤️

You are very successful in gluten-free products. As a family, we enjoy consuming your incredibly delicious products that suit our taste. I wish you to continue your understanding of Quality-Hygiene-Taste. Thank you, I recommend it to everyone.

The place has a gluten-free menu!! I think I found only two in Izmir. It's not all gluten free, but the food was perfect. I am very sensitive and nothing happened to me. There are several options to eat but nothing typically Turkish, I ordered a hamburger with fries and everything was very delicious. The atmosphere was nice and the service was very friendly.

Serpil Taş

I have been going there since the day it opened, it is the only place I go when I need food in the shower, but as someone who eats gluten-free, I would like to have healthier snacks, there are now many different flours, sorghum, buckwheat etc. and desserts made without using sugar, I think it would be more beneficial if the product variety was like this, but it does not satisfy me very much as gluten-free, does my stomach get full, the cleaning is very good, the employees are smiling and fast, they are very good

great place, thanks! gluten free options available

Marina Herencia Molero

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.
