About the Restaurant
Mahir Lokantası is a traditional Turkish restaurant in central Şişli and a very popular spot among locals. It was recently awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which recognizes high-quality food at affordable prices. The menu includes many Turkish home-style favorites, such as the famous boat-shaped pide and lahmacun, içli köfte, kebab, as well as a variety of delicious desserts. At peak hours can get busy and waiting times can be long, so this restaurant is better suited for a casual meal than a formal business meeting. Some waiters speak English and the menu is available in English. The atmosphere is lively and informal, an everyday Istanbul experience that tourist-oriented restaurants can’t offer.
