Khorasani
Khorasani Review
One of Sultanahmet's most popular restaurants emphasizes the Arab- and Kurdish-influenced cuisine of southeastern Turkey, from where the restaurant's owners hail. This translates to delicious mezes like hummus, muhammara (hot pepper and walnut spread), and thyme salad, as well as unusual mains that include quail kebab and a pistachio kebab made with both lamb and beef. Diners can sit outdoors on the cobblestoned sidewalk or get a table inside to watch the chefs prepare kebabs over the large charcoal grill.
