A rare find in the tourist-heavy Sultanahmet area — a genuinely good southeastern Turkish restaurant specializing in the rich, spiced cuisine of Gaziantep and the broader Khorasan tradition. The içli köfte, katmer, and slow-cooked lamb dishes are outstanding. It is one of the few places near the historic sites where locals actually eat.
