Worth the trip across the Bosphorus! - Edit
As there aren't many vegan places on the European side of Istanbul, I caught a ferry across to Kadikoy and it was absolutely worth it! We ordered a breakfast plate (various dips, vegetables) and a lunch plate (similar to the breakfast plate, but with beans and rice) - they were 15 lira each. This was accompanied by a generous basket of bread and a delicious vegan chocolate spread and strawberry jam.
Read moreDefinitely try the desserts. They have vegan baklava, so you won't feel any disappointment from missing out in Turkey! I also ordered takeaway items - a lemon tart, cookie and tomato pastry. The two plates, homemade lemonade plus all the desserts and takeaway were 61 lira. Unbelievable value!! If you are a vegan living or visiting Istanbul, you definitely have to come to Kadikoy for this.

Best in Kadikoy with love! - Edit
Definitely my favorite -all-vegan place in Kadikoy since you cant find any vegan breakfast around with delicious taste,Mahatma is number 1. If you are 2, order a breakfast plate for one person with their delicious,hand-made "borek with lentils",that will be enough Because portions are not small! Prices are certainly reasonable!They have various of vegan food! In Istanbul,it is a bit hard to find vegan deserts but they have many such as tramisu,cookies,cakes etc very tasty!
Read moreThey are not like other vegan friendly restaurants,just give you little salad and small portion of olive oils with expensive price.They give you great and delicious work with nice,smiley faces. Plus if we compare to others,prices are really reasonable and def worth it!
You should give a try and you will love it. (I am a big fan of their food )

THE BEST!!! yummy - cheap - lovely - Edit
I love this place. The food was delicious. I've got a mixed plate with all the delicacies for 15TL. I think that's very fair. The service was very nice and accommodating. I will definitely come again.

lovely spot - Edit
Don't miss this place in kadiköy. Very creative and cosy atmosphere. The mixed plate with hummus, spinach, lentil balls and other traditional specialties is highly recommendable. Also vegan cakes and sweets are offered.

Lovely Cafe - Edit
We accidentally bumped into this cafe while walking around asian side of Istanbul and happily stopped by for a lunch. Rather slower staff didn't bother us cos their kindness and great taste of food made us forget it.

Simply delicious! - Edit
Adorable little cafe off the beaten path in Istanbul... you have to travel to the Asia side to find it. Food was flavorful and not similar to American vegan food at all. Everything was wholesome and healthy, nothing fried and no fake meat products used. The staff at the establishment are very sweet and accommodating, but speak very little English, and at the time I visited there was no English version of the menu, so be sure to have a word translator on your phone if you don't speak Turkish. Overall, delicious food and wonderful to see a completely vegan restaurant in Turkey!
