These restaurants are in Sultanahmet, the heart of Old Istanbul, or in neighboring districts such as Eminönü (by Galata Bridge and the Golden Horn) and Beyazit (near the Grand Bazaar). They're of all styles and price ranges.

Sultanahmet being the epicenter of Istanbul tourism, prices are higher here than in other parts of the city, and more restaurants are aimed at foreign clientele.

Lâle Restaurant (Pudding Shop)
This Hippie hangout from the 1960s is now a nice restaurant with a good kitchen open for all three meals right across the street from the Hippodrome on Divan Yolu in Sultanahmet. Fun, convenient, good beer, free Wifi! More...

Albura Café-Bar Restaurant
In the heart of Akbiyik Caddesi, a street lined with small hotels, cafes, bars and restaurants, it offers a congenial setting for exploring innovative Turkish-fusion cuisine. More...

Java Studio
Canadian expat Jennifer Gaudet's fine modern cafe with excellent coffee (all styles), and the bonus of fine contemporary artworks by Turkish artists. Located right across the street from the Mavi Ev (Blue House Hotel), yet with quiet sidewalk tables. More...

Sultanahmet Halkin Köftecisi
A relatively inexpensive (for Sultanahmet) place on Divan Yolu specializing in köfte (grilled lamb meatballs), shish kebap, and salad. No alcohol served. More...

Meshur Sultanahmet Köftecisi
Meshur Köfteci Kazim Usta
Two more köftecis on Divan Yolu specializing in grilled meatballs of lamb. No alcohol served.

Balikçi Sabahattin
A restored old house in a quiet neighborhood downhill from Sultanahmet, with both indoor and outdoor dining, and seafood as the specialty. Not cheap, but good and popular. More...
