Vamos Estambul Cafe - Istanbul

I typically steer clear of mainstream restaurants, but after reading some positive reviews, we decided to give this place a try. The food, hookah, service, and atmosphere were all excellent, and we had a fantastic meal!

The food at this restaurant is excellent with a wide variety of typical Turkish dishes. The atmosphere is lovely and the service from Han deserves a perfect 5-star rating.

We went there because of the good Google Reviews. When we arrived we were directly seated and it was not busy. You could tell only tourists were guests because of the languages speaking. The guys who served us were polite and offered us water or an appetizer and gave us the wine card. We ordered meat and some rice. Unfortunately the rice wasn't very good and cold. Some of the meatballs were kinda raw so we gave the m the cats. The food was OK in overall, the bread was really fresh they gave us for an appetizer on the house. However for the price, we paid for 2 non alcoholic drinks and 2 main meals about 28 Euro including the 10% Tipp. Which was nice, getting free cay and a piece of baklava.

Enjoyed my lunch here. Had chicken and lamb shish kebabs as well as grilled vegetables. Chicken kebab is delicious, tender and well-marinated. Lamb is a little dryer but still ok. Grilled vegetables are also enjoyable, veggies are well-grilled and sweet. The staffs were polite and accommodating.

Amazing restaurant! Delicious food and great staff! They all made us feel extremely welcome! Incredibly helpful and kind, they helped us with tips of places to visit, Turkish words and picture worthy places for us to see. Ercan and his team really made us feel at home, always welcoming us with a smile and great sense of humour! They were so nice we came back every day even if only for a çay!
