vira vira balık

Tucked into Arnavutköy's charming backstreets, Vira Vira Balık is a seafood spot where fresh fish and mezzes are the main draw. The vibe is warm and lively, with live music adding to the atmosphere — and the owners Zeynep and Özlem are known for making everyone feel genuinely welcome. Worth a visit if you want a proper Istanbul fish dinner without any tourist-trap energy.
