Balikci Sabahattin

"A fish joint based on the meyhane tradition but with a more formal standard of service, this restaurant has an excellent reputation for its very simple output of meze and the catch-of-the-day menu."

"Everything works well at this delightful fish restaurant. They have a long and delicious menu, having been in business since 1927."

"A fish restaurant in the refreshingly down-to-earth streets beside Cankurtaran station, just a five-minute walk from touristy Sultanahmet."

"Cankurtaran’s Balıkçı Sabahattin is evidence that delicious seafood can be eaten somewhere other than on the Bosphorus." Full review

"One of the few consistently good, high-quality restaurants... still cranking out top-quality treasures from the sea." Full review
