"Decent food, good vibes. We were seated at the bar area of the restaurant, it was interesting and lively due to how busy it was. My waitress was extremely friendly, I complimented her and she was super sweet. Checked in with us often as well. We had the house salad which was delicious and the miso soup to get started. I 'm not sure if you can order those on its own, I think it was complementary from the chef. The chef, my partner 's friend, also gave us a roll that they just made for fun. Unsure what was in it and I didn 't even take a picture because I was starving and it was delicious. To the actual purchasable dishes: God of Fire Maki Roll: Not bad, I didn 't care for it as much, I just feel like jalapeños can be a very overpowering flavor to pair with sushi. Sushi Nigiri Deluxe: Decent, the sushi tasted fresh and clean. Side note, I have been to the Kaka 'ako location which has the same menu. Sushi Sashimi 7/10 (same opinion as sushi nigiri deluxe Rack of Lamb 9/10 (flavorful and delicious Sushi 8 7/10 (Sane opinion as the plain sushi dishes, their main differences are just the portion, which is reflected by the price. Personally, it wasn 't a mind blowing experience. It would likely be a good date spot due to the ambiance but I think the food is just alright . However, I definitely didn 't try enough of the dishes for me to definitively state that ALL of the dishes are mediocre. Maybe I will give it another shot one day."

"Since I moved to İstanbul 3 years ago, I tried to find places that met my nutritional requirements. As a meat-loving country, no matter how multicultural the city is, vegetarian and vegan options in the city are quite limited. Even in the places that proclaim themselves, there is little food. I discovered the Avokado Bar one day during my daily walk to the university. The small cozy place looked inviting with its refreshing green decor, classic French melodies and a complete menu with vegetarian/vegan and peskatarian options. I'm so glad I had lunch at this place because it wasn't disappointed. Since that day I have been a regular customer of the place. The menu is quite different, each meal of the day covered. There are toast options for the morning (with gluten-free bread for all my colleagues out there who do not eat gluten!! , salads, packs and local specialties plate for lunch or dinner. For those who have a sweet tooth like me, don't worry, there are smoothie bowls, gluten-free sugar-free brownies, raw pops, kakao pudding that can accompany you with a very delicious freshly brewed V60 coffee. In my opinion, Falafel Burger (a very original idea is a must, along with the Asian mushroom and tofu with vegetable potatoes and green curry. They also have sugar-free juices, produced by mixed fruits, which is so healthy, refreshing and tasty at the same time. You should take a look at this place!"
