I had only ordered online and I finally visited the restaurant the other day. I had a not so traditional meal, but that just made me realize that all the food is good. The restaurant was very elegant compared to a lot of Turkish restaurants in the area. Definitely better than Istanbul Grill… Meryem was a great server and even suggested some things to me and I was happy with her suggestions. Overall, I would recommend it and I will definitely go back.

I liked this place. It’s clean and nice. It was a bit crowded, but OK. The staff is nice and friendly. The food was excellent. I only had soup, but my friends enjoyed their meals.

The atmosphere in the dining space at night is visually beautiful and romantic with the soft lighting. The branzino was delicious! The 4-star rating was because the food was not hot (i.e., steaming) when served otherwise the overall dining experience would have been excellent instead of great.

I had a wonderful experience at Yayla Bistro. The food was amazing, especially the lahmacun and cheese pide. The service was impeccable, friendly and attentive. The outside seating was so enjoyable, with a nice breeze and a cozy atmosphere. I highly recommend this place for anyone who loves Turkish cuisine or wants to try something new and delicious.

Delicious food! Friendly welcome. Great service. Don’t be late to try this restaurant. The lentil soup was great. The ravioli (mantı) was just as delicious. The mixed meat plate was incredible. The meat was tender and fresh. There was nothing we didn’t finish in the mixed appetizer plate. So every experience resulted in flavor. Thank you Yayla Bistro!

Stop everything you’re doing right now and BOOK A RESERVATION. This resturant is absolutely phenomenal, from the food to the staff and the wine selection. I don’t know how this was my first time here because everything was delightful. Started off with Turkish rosé which I’ve never had before and it was quite good, paired well with the mezze platter as our starter. The chefs cigars & dolmas were my favourites and the spreads were all so tasty.

What a find, amazing food! The quality of the items we ordered was superb. We had a variety of items and all were delicious. The outdoor seating was perfect. Dora was a fantastic server and she took excellent care of us. Not cheap but worth every penny. We will be back!

I went here with my family for my dad’s birthday and it was a wonderful experience. The food felt like home, service was great, and baklava for dessert was to die for.
