Hikayemiz

Since 2004, the one and only Indian Restaurant in Taksim the heart of Istanbul, with a seating capacity of at 100+. Decoration is artsy, serenaded with Indian music. Here, food is the star of the show. The recently refurbished menu is both vegetarian and non-vegeterian. Our highly-trained chef produces some of the most delicious and imaginative dishes in the different and delicious Indian repertoire.
For us, a mere whiff of ghee-sizzled turmeric, cumin, chilies and garam masala provokes something akin to a catnip high. The menu tees off with plentiful soup, appetizer and salad choices, followed by multiple options in rice, vegetable and tandoori specialties, seafoods, lamb delicacies and chicken delights. The exquisite Carrot Halwa makes things worse for dieters. Good Indian cooking is subtle and complex. Spicy-hot dishes are only a small part of the repertoire, and there is never a hint of that brassy-flavored yellow stuff sold in cans as "curry powder." The word "kari" actually means "sauce," and each dish must have its own distinctive, unique blend of herbs and spices. The cooking style is a comfortable and the food here makes me feel right at home. Portions are big enough and lashings of rich and spicy food leave you full of quality food prepared using only the best and freshest ingredients. There are northern dishes incorporating the wonderful, cheese (paneer), or showing the Persian origins of Moghlai cooking in the elaborate rice dishes called "biriyanis." Aromatic food is always served at a comfortable warmth. A pleasant experience is ensured when it's not crowded. Sure to become a favourite for curry lovers in the area.
