So many vegan meze

Just get a plate and try as much little snacks as you like, because the price is very reasonable or just go with the lahmacun, you won’t be wrong if you decide to eat at this lovely place. The owner was very friendly.

Very nice and charming place🌼

Small and warming place, home-made food by a very nice lady, you can try a lot of different portions of typical turkish food for a really affordable price.
She also made kombucha :)
Super recomendable! 🌱🙌💖

Delicious and quite cheap

We ordered 4 meal plate and tea. And took a spinach pie and baklava away. Everything was delicious.
A variety of fresh vegan dishes are available.

Pros: Fast, Delicious, Vegan desserts are available

Cons: There's no description of each dish

Pros: Very cheap, Tasty wit many options, Portion size

Cons: Small place, Not very interesting interior, Bad view from the terrace

delicious food for a low budget

The venue is nothing special (from the "balcony", we had a look onto a building site), but the owners are most friendly and the menue is varied and delicious. We came twice and always had the 4-dishes-option for 150 Lira (a bit more than 5 €). Every plate had its own flavour, it looked and tasted really good. And the portions were ok; we didn't leave hungry. They also had kombucha. Would definitely come back again!

Pros: varied, delicious, healthy food, nice owners

Cons: venue looks a bit cheap

Cheap, homemade and delicious

So much choice! Most nutritious wholesome food I've had in awhile (been travelling). Run by a friendly older couple and the food is just delicious. Highly recommend as it won't break the budget!

Pros: Delicious, Variety, Cheap

Must visit

Homemade food, great prices, many options…
This was the first vegan restaurant I’ve visited in Istanbul, and it really changed everything.
Türlü is a must try!

Small cafe, good selection

A little cafe with pick and mix options from the counter. The food was pretty tasty, especially the carrot salad was actually great. The atmosphere is just that of a greasy spoon but good for a lunch stop and wallet friendly

Good & Cheap Turkish Food from the Buffet

We had a selection from the buffet, which comprises different kinds of mostly Turkish food, all vegan.
It’s not an all-you-can-eat, basically you say how many portions (3, 4 or 5) you want and it is served to you. My food did cost a little less than 5€ which was really cheap for the amount I got(see photo).
The food was good even though not spectacular, and the staff was really friendly. I went there with some non-vegan friends, all of them liked it as well.

Must Try

This place is great! All the dishes are pre made and you select either a 3 or 4 meal option. Some of the options are staples and others change daily and they have a soup of the day. The price is very affordable and the portions are filling. The staff are very friendly and I definitely recommend this cozy spot if ever in Istanbul.

Pros: Affordable , Homemade , Many selections

Pretty good food at amazing prices

Vegan Istanbul is a friendly and inviting place with one woman running the establishment. The food is pre-cooked so you order a place of 3-4 items for a set fee. She then heats it up in a microwave for you. Unfortunately, I did have to ask to reheat the dish twice because there were many cold spots with such a packed plate, but she was really nice about it and the food was pretty good.

The most mind blowing part was paying for the meal and realized it came out to roughly $4.70 USD. That much love into such an affordable dish only makes me appreciate that women even more!

Awesome Turkish food

They offer traditional Turkish dishes similar to an ev yemekleri. You’re choosing 3-4 options for a very good price.
My boyfriend is Turkish and approved everything we tried.
Also the desserts were amazing.

The owner of the restaurant has been vegan for 20 years and is super hospitable.

Pros: Many options, Cheap, Traditional dishes

Amazing tasty local food

When you arrive to the place you are able to see all the food available to be eaten in that moment. You choose between 3 or 4 types. So it is so cool to be able to try lots of dishes of the Turkish cuisine in vegan version. Everything is tasty, staff is nice and prices are cheap. So, perfect place ✨💖

Cheap and tasty traditional food

A traditional, cheap and delicious Turkish food. I loved the format. You have to choose three or four options for your plate among many. We tried bulgur salad, soy burger, seitan and many others. The homemade kombucha was delicious and the price is unbeatable. Great option near Galata or Taksim area. #Veganuary

I like being able to see my food before ordering

You can order either 3 or four dishes from the display. The portions are big, though, so three is enough for one person, but with four you get to try more things.

The kombucha is very nice and refreshing! #Veganuary

Pros: Zucchini pie, Dessert!, Kombucha

Cons: Some of the food was bland
