EDITOR'S REVIEW
Cilveli Yeni Nesil Meyhane in Basınköy brings dinner, live stage acts and table-side entertainment into one show-oriented night. The early hours focus on meze; later guests sing along and dance.
The stage starts with meyhane melodies and arabesque interpretations. Familiar Turkish hits and rhythmic songs get guests moving later. Live music and entertainment take place every evening.
Inside Novi Hotel, glossy tabletops, purple and pink lighting, stage spotlights and ceiling decorations give the room a modern show-venue feel. When the tables fill up, performances happen right among the guests.
A set-menu meyhane dinner becomes a dinner show with live vocals, DJ sets, oriental dance and presentations for celebrations.
Large birthday parties, bachelor and bachelorette groups, nearby residents seeking dinner entertainment and couples who like getting up from the table to Turkish pop.
Showy smart casual outfits suit celebration nights. Dresses for women and shirts or jackets for men are common.
Cilveli is a "new-generation" meyhane (tavern) that promises a high-energy, reasonably priced night out, featuring striking décor, DJ music, and dance and darbuka (goblet drum) performances. Guests often appreciate the attentive staff, the safe atmosphere, and the comfort the venue offers to groups of women. However, a significant number of reviews criticize the cramped table layout, inadequate ventilation, heavy smoke, cold or lackluster food, and inexperienced service staff. Issues such as missing tables despite reservations (or guests being asked to move), early closing times, power outages, and delayed food service have also been reported. Frequent DJ interruptions to the music and staff members circulating among tables to solicit tips can be sources of annoyance. It is advisable to confirm details—such as table location, closing time, the menu, and any extra charges for drinks or performances—in writing beforehand.

NOTE
Some online maps also list the business at No. 42 on İstanbul Avenue in Basınköy. Navigate by the name Novi Hotel. Tables near the stage experience the music and movement up close; request a rear section for a quieter spot.
GETTING THERE
Reach Novi Hotel via the Basınköy–Florya coastal road. A taxi from Küçükçekmece Marmaray station is the most practical connection. Address listings show both No. 17 and No. 42, so use the hotel name.
