EDITOR'S REVIEW
A small Greek-style meyhane on the Yeniköy waterfront, drawing on Ottoman, Greek and Hellenic cooking through meze and seafood.
Greek-language and Turkish tunes accompany the seafood table. Live singing or fasıl may not happen nightly; stage programs vary by date.
Polished and conversation-focused, in keeping with a waterfront neighborhood. It begins calmly at dinner and livens as guests join in with songs.
Greek cuisine and seafood, combining table service and meze with Turkish music in one evening.
Seafood and Greek-food enthusiasts, couples and small groups.
Simple, comfortable, neat everyday clothes fit a Greek-style meyhane dinner.
Kalispera No:15 offers an experience that sharply divides opinion in reviews. Satisfied customers praise the warm, casual atmosphere, friendly service, and the Greek-inspired mezes, fish, and hot appetizers; many note—especially under the new team—that portions are filling, service is sincere, and the price-to-performance ratio is reasonable. Conversely, numerous reviews state that the venue fails to live up to the "Greek tavern" identity promised on social media, noting that mezes are small, ordinary, or tasteless, and service can be slow and disorganized. A cramped, stuffy environment, heavy cigarette smoke, loud music, cleanliness issues, and unexpected charges added to the bill are among the recurring complaints. Experiences vary over time due to changes in management and staff. It is advisable to clarify the current menu, prices, seating arrangements, and billing practices before visiting.
