Great food, great atmosphere and a great price!
Surprising that it is so close to the main sites of Sultanhamet and yet such good value.
As in all places in Istanbul, the price of wine / alcohol is very high. Our two mains and bottle of wine came to 66 lira - of which 30 lira was for the wine.
At an exchange rate of 2.5 lira to £1, this meant that our meals cost just a little over £14.
Wonderful fish on the menu and I recommend the chicken hagiasophia.
They have a terrace that looks onto the Blue Mosque.
All along the street there are "kapici" (managers/head waiters) trying to lure you into their respective establishments, but to be fair they do this with good humour and banter.
Incili Cavus Sk No 21 Sultanhamet.
If you stand facing the Haghia Sofia the street is across the road on your left parallel to the Divan Yolu street (which has the tram line). It is next to the Mozaik restaurant on the corner of the street.
