Restaurants near Corlulu Ali Pasa Medresesi

We came to Antakya Restaurant to celebrate the anniversary of the day my partner and I first met. We’re so glad we chose this place; we truly had a wonderful evening. We were especially pleased with the food. The Saray Kebab was excellent, both in its presentation and taste. The tenderness of the meat, the perfect balance of spices, and the generous presentation made it truly appetising. The arrival of the Testi Kebab at our table was another special touch. From the very first bite, the rich flavour and tenderness of the meat were impressive. The Turkish wine we chose alongside our meals complemented the dishes beautifully. Delicious food, a lovely atmosphere, and a special evening shared with someone you love… It became a beautiful anniversary memory for us. Thank you, Antakya Restaurant, for everything. We already have a lovely reason to come back! ❤️

We returned to this restaurant years after our first to find it even better than our memories. We had been hosted by a local businessman with his family. My wife worked with some of family back home and they wanted us to experience a true Turkish dinner. We were hoping that what we remembered was accurate. We were not disappointed. We tried as much of the offerings as we could comfortably consume. Every item was memorable, tasteful and new. This is why we travel and eat local. I can get chicken nuggets and fries anywhere. I want authentic foods prepared and served with pride and care. From beginning to end the staff and service deserves recognition for their excellent service. Cemal was our waiter and was able to guide us to the best choice’s. I will return and wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone. I do need to add that the views are amazing. You can view the Blue Mosque from your table on the 6th floor. A visit should be on everyone’s menu to Istanbul.

Good service! They took care of our needs and it was a great experience. I will TONE recommend to everyone i know who is going to Istanbul.

Had Sunday brunch here and it was an exceptional experience. The atmosphere in the courtyard was wonderfully peaceful and serene. The open buffet selection was simply amazing with top-quality ingredients, and the service was attentive, polite, and flawless. Highly recommended

Had a lovely solo dining experience in the courtyard of Avlu. My server was very helpful in recommending dishes and helping me find excellent Turkish wine pairings. One of the best meals I had in Istanbul. Will definitely come again on my next trip to Istanbul.
