A relaxed Anatolian grill on Fener Kalamış Caddesi serving expertly grilled meats, traditional stews, and handmade bread in a no-fuss, quality-first format. The smoky aromas from the open grill set the tone before you sit down.

Editor's Tip

The point is the charcoal grill, not the menu length. Order the Adana, the cağ kebabı, and one liver skewer, the kitchen's expertise is in those three meats and everything else is filler. Reserve a table near the grill for the show; the back room is where regulars eat without performance.
