Ali Ocakbaşi Karaköy - Istanbul

This restaurant is hidden on a side street, but definitiw is worth finding. looks a bit mysterious when they take the elevator or stairs, but really nice and modern restaurant with views over the golden horn to the east. the staff is helpful and friendly, eating is good. if they decide to go here, it is really recommended to call forward, so they can warn them at least before the time of their vegan decisions. I went back a second time and they were not really ready to cook vegan. I can understand that and it shows that it is freshly cooked! do not let go, it is worth visiting if they can warn them before updated by the previous review on 2021-10-09

We had typical Turkish eating with vegan and it was amazing! the view of the bósforo are also from this world. they have a certain vegan menu and the prices are more than reasonable.

Personal was very friendly and understanding vegan / vegetarian. special vegan menu with all options from start to desserts. satir kebap and was satisfied with taste and servier. never before tried to eat vegan version of Turkish (which is usually meat). great view of bosporus and

It's a true ocakbaşı experience. The food is amazing, especially the chicken skewers. I've seen some comments criticizing the food; I'd love for them to take me to places they like so we can compare. (The bill's on me!)

The meats are simply AMAZING. The portions might be a bit small, and it doesn’t come with bulgur or other sides, so it's best to order generously. The prices are quite reasonable compared to similar places. My only complaint is the overly casual waitstaff. After I declined the hazelnut lahmacun (served on a small plate), I found it quite off-putting when the staff engaged in overly familiar banter, saying things like "it'll come anyway, you can just not take it if you don’t want it." However, I can’t say anything negative about the food, as I had the best stuffed meatballs I’ve ever tasted last night.
