Visited this restaurant in a recent trip to istanbul and it was definitely a highlight. Great vegetarian options. Service was good as we were the only people in the restaurant given the political climate and excellent value for money.

I really enjoyed my dinner here. I had a little trouble finding it as it was not on the first street listed in the addreaa but I asked a couple people and a nice man in a market offered to show me. It was right around the corner of the street i thought was the one. I had the cool... More

We had our last meal in Istanbul at Klemuri, and it was a great experience. The restaurant is homey, comfortable, and unnpretentious. The food is a great twist on traditional Turkish food, taking common ingredients, and adding some great surprises. The staff was friendly without being pushy. It was very, very reasonable for the quality of the dishes, and in... More

Definitely recommend the place to everyone want to try some authentic local and fed up with mainstream kebaps. also the service is... More

After a little bit of searching (go right at the end of the street - restaurant is across from a gym), we were amply rewarded with what i considered the best meal I had in Turkey. You really can't go wrong with chosing anything off the menu. Mezze were all excellent, chicken and apricots were delicious and even my vegetarian... More

Please don't listen to the naysayers of this restaurant. It is fantastic, cheap, and non touristy. We went for dinner on a Tuesday night around 9 and were promptly seated. Immediately I knew we were in for a more home style experience than other places we ate at. The interior is vey straightforward, decorated by a few homey touches and... More

Small place, full of locals, interesting and tasty menu, very reasonably priced. Nothing to look at from the outside but worth searching for. http://www.klemuri.com/www.klemuri.com/ENGLISH.html

My husband and I ate here after a long day walking around the hills of Istanbul. The atmosphere is super cozy and is like being in someone's house. The food itself was also super tasty. We ordered some mezes (can't remember what exactly), and for the main courses, we had a pastry filled with meat and something similar to manti... More

Located in the Beyoğlu district not far from Taksim Square, this restaurant looks like a house and that is the best part: it's very cozy. The ambient and the kindness of waiters are the real highlight of this place. I can't say the same about the food, though, which I cannot praise as the quality doesn't go beyond average. We... More

Lovely food, low prices, friendly service, free Wi-fi and not far from the main street. Definitely worth a try.
