Kathryn Fradera

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

Courtney Godden

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....

Courtney Godden

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.

Gyf Ffyijffut

Wonderful for gluten free

Joe Horvath

Good gluten free options, really tasty, friendly staff, great for a quick not too expensive meal.

Azra ERTEN

It was delicious and nice. Thank you for everything. I recommend their gluten-free pizzas.

Emma OH

They had some vegan & gluten free options which were good but not spectacular. Nice to have the option.

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.

Emma OH

We had a very long wait for service, from waiting for a table (this was fine since it was brunch on a weekend), to waiting for our order to be taken, to having the food served. They seemed to only have one person waiting a full inside area, terrace and street seating so an extra person would make all the difference! Food was okay, not great value but was good too have vegan and gluten free options.

Giulia De Luca

Nice restaurant, typical dishes divided between Ottoman and Anatolian cuisine. Very nice garden, friendly and prepared waiters. Also attentive to allergies and intolerances, possibility of eating gluten free. Prices slightly above average. Kadir was very kind.

Madison Elander

Good atmosphere, service and food was great. Options for gluten free, vegan, etc which I appreciate as a celiac and food was labelled with allergens. 10/10 experience

Damla Sezgin

Every single one of the appetizers was delicious. As someone with celiac disease, it was great to find a place where we could eat comfortably, that was tasty and reasonably priced. I will be coming back more often now.

Aysel ÖZALP

We chose it for a birthday dinner. The venue and the view are very beautiful. It was very enjoyable to watch Istanbul shining with the dusk. The service quality and presentations are very successful. The waiters are incredibly attentive. It is also very important for me to have gluten-free options. They can provide this as well. The only disadvantage is that they do not offer valet service due to its location.

Dalal R

They have a gluten free toast and other products The bread is soft and tasty

kevin farley

Fantastic spot for lunch, great gluten-free options!

Greta Fedeli

Good brunch and gluten-free food. They have gluten-free bread for toast. Vegetarian options and plant-based milk are also available, ideal for vegans. Friendly service, nice atmosphere, and cleanliness are excellent.

L D Featherstone

A very unique pub! Good gluten-free options, I just wish they stocked the Gluten-free Efes beer which is available in many other Istanbul pubs! Really friendly staff who were happy to explain the gluten-free food options to me.

Andrea Grimaldi

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.

Tegan Burns

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

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.

Sıla I.

Everything was so good, my friend has celiac disease and we felt so safe. The service was great and everything was clean 😊

Alys Taylor

We really enjoyed our meal here. The service was exceptional, staff super friendly and chatty. They accommodated my gluten free needs and brought out complimentary desert and multiple cups of different flavoured teas. It was an experience more than just a meal. Highly recommend.

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!

Sue C

Really delicious food and great service, very helpful for gluten free food and waitress had excellent English, we'll go back.

Ruth Updegraff

Top quality Turkish dishes in a cafeteria style. Authentic and delicious, lots of options for vegetarian and gluten free diners.

A nice experience for those who want to try a different cuisine. The atmosphere is beyond my expectations, it is a spacious place. It's a great cuisine, especially for those who like sour tastes, but everyone who doesn't hate sour should definitely try it. The only thing I see missing is that the waiters can give more detailed information about the menu to first-time customers. What did I eat? Mirza Ghasemi (Starter): Spicy and sour roasted eggplant paste. 5/5 Ghorme Sabzi (Starter): A meaty, sour and juicy dish. Sour taste predominates. The content is main course, portion size is appetizer, nice to taste. 4/5 Lamb Neck (Main course): The fact that it came to the table quickly made me wonder about the taste, but it tasted great, it was cooked for a long time and was soft. 5/5 Persian Pilaf with Orange and Saffron (side dish): Saffron goes very well with rice anyway, and you add orange to it in a jam-like form, it turns out great. 5/5 Dessert: It was a dessert with pistachios among coconut syrup. It was light and tasted great, plus it's gluten-free. 5/5

aaron mendez

Good location, gluten free food.

Sue Hatchett

What a fantastic place. The food was delicious. We had the meze plate. I have a gluten free diet and was eating my normal hummus and tzatziki with my own rice cakes and the waiter brought me some delicious gluten free bread. Such excellent service. He even included a complimentary gluten free dessert. I recommend this restaurant. Excellent.

Zeliha Çakan

Gluten free options are available, the staff is very attentive and sweeteeeee <3 They also have information about celiac disease. I LOVED IT!

Debra Schug

Very expensive for the value. To correct an erroneous review, theyDO NOT have a gluten free menu, but have gf bread. They also will work with you to understand your food restrictions, but the quality and portions were not super great, even though I wanted to like this place. Just a tourist trap, but so it goes being gluten free in the bread capital.

Matías Biancucci

The place is very nice, comfortable, and the staff are super friendly. The menu is very interesting, with varied options and even gluten-free options. However, I found it expensive. They charged us an extra 10% for the service, we had to wait quite a while for the food, and the sandwich I ordered (Club Flat Bread) was thin and had too much mayonnaise. I expected more for a 4.9/5.

Andrew Murgett

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.

Anika Rana

The food was very tasty and good quality, the view is also amazing and the service was very pleasant and nice, definitely recommend, you’ll have an amazing experience. P.S also a great place for people who like gluten free food, there were a lot of options

Irma Venosa

Excellent Turkish restaurant, even I, who am celiac, was able to have lunch tasting their typical dishes

Yaren Ü.

The cook is delicious and the greens are fresh. It is now very difficult to find such satisfying and healthy meals at this price, and it also requires a ticket. Gluten-free and vegan options made us very happy

Jay West

I ordered the gluten free vegan spicy pasta with mushrooms and olives, delicious!

S A

Amazing Service, Gluten Free Options 😍😍❤️

Eleonora SABA

Everything wonderful! Very kind and friendly staff, very hospitable and attentive to every need, they were very helpful even with me who have celiac disease and were able to advise me well on the choice on the gluten free menu! The food was excellent, the waiter recommended a dish with a mix of meat to divide in two and it was delicious, it was typical cuisine but not excessively spicy. We had the rice pudding for dessert, which was also delicious, accompanied by the tea offered by the owner. We got up from the table satisfied and full but not weighed down. The restaurant is located in a very nice street full of restaurants near the blue mosque; everything is very clean, they have tables both inside and outside, it is private and welcoming. We will remember this beautiful dinner in Istanbul. Excellent quality/price. If you are in Istanbul a dinner here is a must!

Briana R

Charming & quaint restaurant with great food and service. Accommodated my friend’s gluten and dairy allergy :)

Ceyda Nur Demir

We were really pleased with everything today, everyone was very attentive, I would like to thank especially Mr. Latif and Mr. Osman, gluten sensitivity was taken into consideration in the meals, everything was prepared accordingly, everything from the bread to the bread, thanks to you, I had a perfect birthday meal. I will definitely come again🥹🙏🏻

Stella A

Great little breakfast spot, the menenmen was just what I needed. I am coeliac gluten free and while they didn’t have any gluten free bread, they understood and took care of my dietary needs. Friendly and fairly priced. Would recommend.

Jose Antonio Mongil

We have eaten great They have food and bread for celiacs Highly recommended, we will return

Kara Hammond

The Browns

Serap ve Enes were amazing! They were very friendly. I have a gluten allergy and they were able to help me to know what was safe to eat. Our food was amazing and they even gave us some Turkish coffee on the house!

All the products I tried were extremely delicious. It is positive that there are vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free products. There is a wide variety of wines and they also have their own wines. The atmosphere is very nice, it doesn't feel like you are in a shopping mall. Summer evenings will be enjoyable. It can be busy after work and in the evenings, reservations are recommended.

gulsum cinar

Great appetizers! Great service! A warm and friendly environment! I will stop by every time I go to Istanbul! Also, many thanks to the service chef who offered me gluten-free bread due to my allergy!

S. Dietzel

The food was fresh and delicious. The service was outstanding and courteous. Very good advice was given about the options for gluten intolerance. We would eat here again.
