Çiğköfteci Ali Usta - Fatih

One of my pleasant experiences in Istanbul was visiting Ali Usta for Cigkofta!<br/ <br/ The place is very basic and simple, with Ali asking the customers how they want the sandwich in a funny way! He prepares the sandwich on the spot in front of your eyes with a funny show that leaves people smiling and laughing!<br/ <br/ The portion is very generous! He puts a lot of Cigkofta that tastes amazing with the spices he use. You can add Lemon or Debes and enjoy it with Ayran <br/ <br/ It is super cheap, costing 5 Turkish Liras or $1. <br/ I highly recommend it for the street food experience of Istanbul!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting a Çiğköfteci, and I must say it was a fantastic experience. Çiğköfteci is a Turkish restaurant specializing in çiğ köfte, a traditional dish made from bulgur, spices, and finely minced vegetables.

Ali Usta is very nice and generous person. Cig kofte is very delicious. Also prices are quite well. You will not regret.

Has the best Cigkofte in town, the sandwich was very delicious made with love and simple ingredients. Lovely people, generous and welcoming. The price was 25TL for a sandwich.

Went towards closing time and bought a pre-made wrap. Great combination of fresh crunchy lettuce atop spicy bulgar wheat which makes up the Cig Kofte itself. Unique and well worth a try.
