This place is quite special. We went for kahvalti and they gave us a nice spread of olives, fresh bread, homemade jams, hard boiled eggs, and gözleme or kind of a Turkish quesadilla. The service was wonderful, and full of warmth. I recommend trying to eat their dinner menu as they will cook dishes in their wood fired tandır or oven. The atmosphere was really nice. Lots of light and I love the circular windows so you can see the rocky hills that surround the restaurant. You should know that the restaurant was designed and built by the owners - a husband and wife team who are local to Cappadocia.

At first glance, the place looked promising – we expected tasty, homemade, and affordable food. Unfortunately, there was no proper communication – the staff only exchanged messages with us via phone, and there was no menu or prices provided. We were told that lamb ribs were being served that day, so we ordered them. The food was homemade and decent, but nothing special. The real surprise came with the bill – we paid 3700 Turkish lira for two people, including 350 lira for one beer. After spending a week in Cappadocia and enjoying many dinners with a bottle of local wine, I can confidently say this was by far the most expensive place we ate at. ⚠️ Warning – always ask about the prices before ordering. It is extremely expensive.

Truly authentic experience. We were looking for a vegetarian option and we got it in a place which is more used to serve meat than anything. We were the only guests which made it more special. Our host from Rivendell arranged it for us. There was no question of a menu. We were just served dinner, the way you will get it at home. The single plank wood tables are another thing.

Pure gem in Cappadoce, the farmer wife did a crazy good job! Only with reservation , this place propose real and original Turkish mom food cooked in tandir ( Tandoor) Variation of the menu with seasons It was our best local food experience And the view is just awesome

Introduced by Narsissos Cave Hotel, the lamb of tandoori kebab was soooo good! Staffs were also nice and be able to share the story of local dishes! Will definitely come again!

Restaurant restaurant is amazing. The atmosphere is really quiet and calm and authentic. The food is fresh and authentic and very tasty but their rates are very very high. We paid more than in any other restaurants in Göreme I would advise to check the rates beforeordering.

Delicious traditional food. The staff was extremely friendly. The best traditional Turkish restaurant in Cappadocia we’ve experienced.
