About Kıtır Tunalı

Kıtır, also known as Kıtır Piliç, is a casual restaurant and beer house on Tunalı Hilmi Caddesi in Kavaklıdere. Its Instagram account dates the Tunalı branch to 1979 and a second branch in the Arcadium mall in Çayyolu to 2024, under the slogan her yaşın bir Kıtır'ı var, roughly "every age has its own Kıtır". Kokoreç (grilled lamb intestines) is the house speciality, served in a quarter, half or three-quarter loaf of bread, as a plate, over rice or wrapped as a dürüm, with or without melted kaşar cheese. The rest of the menu covers sharing plates such as fries, chicken fingers, calamari and a mixed beer platter, a seafood plate, salads, filled kumpir potatoes and a section of classics that includes stuffed chicken (tavuk dolma), which takes about 30 minutes. On weekdays from 12:00 to 14:00 there are dishes of the day. The drinks list has draught beers, among them local craft beers on tap, bottled beers, wines, liqueurs and classic cocktails, and the restaurant shares its own music playlist on Spotify. Reviewers on Yandex Maps recommend the kokoreç with a beer, and note that the place is often crowded, so finding a table can take patience. Meal cards such as Multinet, Sodexo, Edenred and Setcard are accepted for food but not for drinks. The Üstkat Gastro Pub occupies the floor above.
