In saying that...the service was fantastic. The waiter was attentive and friendly , the food was hot when it came .More

Just try it. It’s so good, I can’t wait to go back. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while. And the staff/owner was so pleasant and helpful. I can’t say enough good things about this place.

Kokorec is a fatty cheap meal very common in Istanbul and this was my first try. Absolutely amazing. Service was extremely nice explaining the options and showing our way to the small tables on the street.

Very delicious if you love intestines, but not as good as roasted lamb by charcoal or wood fire, and the final bill charged us 5TL more

After having seen mark weins coming to this place, we followed suit and had a light snack before watching the whirling dervish show at the sikersci train station. The intestines with bread tasted slightly gamey and spicy, but went well together with a glass of...Ayran. Meal was slightly expensive for street food.More

The kokorec was nice if coupled with the mussels available, the mussels were delicious. Put some red spice and vinegar mini chillis, you got yourself something different and delicious.

We wanted to try out Kokorec and we were not disappointed. This little street food cart has been around for a while and it was great. They make Kokorec right in front of you and it tasted absolutely amazing. My wife was confused at how...nice it was.More

Judging only by what I have tasted there this place is awesome. I have tried the very tasty Yarim (intestine in a delicious bread) and I love it. Nonetheless just to warn everyone one this is a fatty sandwich but I’d eat again with pleasure.

My first experience of korkorec was in Antalya but this one was much better - nice spiciness and being in a bread roll probably toned it down a bit. Basically a fast food establishment, but quite busy. We were just passing by on our way...back from the markets and decided to try it.More
