Very fresh and filling - Edit
Went here with my partner.
Read moreWe had the Muhammara as a starter with the free lebanese bread - haven't had anything like it before and really enjoyed it. We also had a vegan kibbe to try - we only got 1 but it was soooooo tasty! Would definitely recommend it.
We shared the lebanese vegan menu 1 box. It was filling, tasted very fresh and the falafels were hot and crispy on the oustide. Tabouleh was so good and lemony.
Walnut sambousek was nice as well, would be good if they could do a vegan chocolate one (I am a massive chocolate lover).
Pros: Free lebanese bread, Food was hot, tasty and filling
Cons: More vegan dessert options would be good

Excellent. - Edit
Lebanese food in bento boxes is kind of weird - but it's exceptionally good.
Read moreTwo vegan felafel meal options, both are excellent (and not very different) and should be pursued with gusto. Arguably the best felafel in Istanbul. Even the cay is really good.
Recommended if you're in Karakoy or Galata.
Pros: Exceptional food and drink.
Cons: The door bangs. A lot. And really loudly.

fantastic mezze & kibbeh - Edit
has two vegan menus but also many clearly labeled vegan mezze/starters, so we‘d recommend choosing multiple starters/mezze.
Read morethe içli köfte / kibbeh were the best we’ve ever had! must try!! even came back for them
fattoush salad, falafels, and muhammara were also delicious.

Baba Ganoush and friends - Edit
Relatively broad choice of vegan options! Everything was tasty and fresh. Have already been a fan of Tahin when they were still a hole-in-the-wall shop, and they still deliver. Happy to see they managed to grow into a restaurant. Only point for improvement would be to dim the light for nicer atmosphere (at least when seated inside)
Read morePros: Tastiness, Fresh (mint leaves), Quick service

Hummus love! - Edit
I really have a thing for the Lebanese kitchen so the Tahin was the first place we headed to after our arrival in the city of Istanbul. And they didn't disappoint me! The hummus, the tahin, the falafel - everything was so delicious and on point. Afterwards we picked up our breakfast hummus there everyday. I really recommend this one :)

Loved it! - Edit
It's often hard to find vegan (and gluten free) food. But Tahin had several vegan options on their menu. In adition to having several vegan items, they had two vegan set menues. I ate the Vegan Lebanon 2. Very good food and good value for your money. Are defently coming back.
Read morePros: Friendly staff, good vibe and had a relaxing background music , The restaurant was situated in a very cozy street

Quite delicious - Edit
I had vegan menu 1 and it was delicious. Tahin has 2 restaurants one of them is in Kadıköy and one of them is in Karaköy. That's why it's a good option to have. In vegan menu you have falafel, salad, hummus and potatoes so it's satisfying 🙌

Hummus - Edit
I’ve tried vegan menu 1, and hummus with batata harra was so delicious. I’ve had better falafels though.
