Me and my partner were lucky enough to discover Mina’s place last month. What an absolute treat it was. Real home cooked Persian cuisine, every single dish was exceptional. So much flavour and everything tasted so fresh and healthy. The best food we had on our trip without a doubt. We had the gorgeous roof terrace to to ourselves, and the service from Mina and her daughters was perfect. They’re all so friendly and lovely! Cannot recommend it highly enough. Thank you Mina for an unforgettable experience.

We had an excellent Persian dinner prepared for us by the very charismatic artesian proprietor. She offers a very unique menu by appointment. Certainly a highlight of our stay. We had the Lamb with plum dish and slow cooked chicken along with the very unique saffron and potato rice. For Desert, the Pear option and was all extremely delicious. My wife isn't a lover of Saffron so they made a separate dish without saffron for her. Their shop of art is in itself worth the visit.

The Mina Art Café is apsolutly lovely. I can only recommend to come buy and look at the handmade art and/ or getting a drink (the cake is also so so good). If there is an opening I also highly recommend to make a reservation for dinner! The homemade persian food is amazing!

Everyone visiting Kalkan should see this beautiful place! First of all, the service was incredibly friendly and positive. They explained everything in details about their products and coffee. Cold brewed coffee was well done. We also tried San Sebastian cheesecake cake. It was one the best ones I’ve had. The interior and atmosphere is very unique and almost everything is handmade. Thanks to those people who welcomed us on our visit.

This was my favorite place in Kalkan! Among all the places I visited, this one stands out for its originality and artistic spirit. The owners create incredibly beautiful art, and the food is just as wonderful as their creations. You can have an amazing time simply looking around, talking with them, or appreciating the beauty of the place and its dishes. If you are in Kalkan, you should definitely come here!
