The Cercis occupies a traditional Syriac Christian home with two finely decorated rooms and a terrace with stunning views. Mekbuss (aubergine pickles with walnut), kitel raha (Syrian-style meatballs) and dobo (lamb with garlic, spices and black pepper) rank among the highlights. Dive into the meze platters (₺40 for two people) for a taste of everything that's good.
It's a good idea to reserve for dinner on weekends. Wine and beer are also served.
