Akali Maçka

Akali has one of, if not the best burger in Istanbul. I got the double cheeseburger and quality of everything was excellent, beef was tasty, and bun was fresh and soft. Fries were a generous amount.
The waiters were very courteous and I liked the location of this branch, in a very quiet neighborhood.
Extra points for the wet towel/tissue they provide after the food. It smells amazing 👌🏾

Beyond awesome, food was delicious, staff were friendly and professional, the experience were very memorable you juat enjoy watching the chefs making your burger in artistic fashion.

The burger was delicious I really will coming back again. Also, the fries was amazing I recommend you to visit the restaurant.

If you wish to eat some awesome burgers, this is the place to be. Other than the burgers, everything else is also very very good.

Still perfect, burgers were cooked to perfection. This place kept their prices extremely good for their quality. Quality and price is perfect. You get probably the best burger in whole Turkey. Everything is also handmade. The buns are spectacular!

The best burger in Istanbul 👌🏼

The staff are cheerful and provide advice on types of food, helpful and kind. Thank you everyone.

Been coming here for many years. It has always been a great burger, if you like messy burgers, and I do! Have always recommended Akali to friends. The sad part is seeing the prices increasing so much and so often. Come on Akali. Be nice. Yes I know it has been a tough economic period for everyone. We would normally get at least 3 extras in each burger every time and a larger pattie. Thats what has always made their burgers so good. So many delicious options. We just cant anymore. It is not justifiable :( We want to continue supporting you but with these constant price increases, it is hard. Having a burger should not be a luxury :(

Hands down the best burger joint in Istanbul. They have a basic burger concept. You choose the size of your beef patty (80, 160, or 240 grams) then customize the burger with a number of add-ons. Very juicy and flavorful!

Great burgers, the buns are incredibly soft, the meat is perfectly juicey and the sauces are to die for. The adds on are pretty pricy but worth it for that extra zhuzh.
The fries portion is huge, more than enough for two.
The place is a 10-15 minute walk from Beşiktaş iskelesi and is located in a quiet street. It’s perfect for an embarrassment-free cheat day!

The burger game here is spot on. The meat is super flavorful and the buns are really soft. Really tasty stuff.

Sit at the bar or outside and order by the gram or number of patties you want. I did the former, allowing me to watch the process of these beauties coming together.

The staff was also attentive and kind. Definitely already wanting another.

Best burger in Istanbul. Truffalgar sauce is additionally recommended.

Hands down one of the best burgers in Istanbul.
Bun, meat, sauces and appetizers are very good.

This is a fatty, greasy, delicious, legit burger. If you want a REAL burger, go here. If you want something that lacks taste and flavor, this is not the place to be. 100% would recommend.

Best burger i’ve eaten in a long time, just didn’t like the blue cheese sauce and their special ayran

My kids and I really liked their burgers. We had burgers in many places in the USA, Canada and Europe, but this one beats them all. Oh, and I loved their fries it was amazing.
Thanks for the nice service

I had 400 gr burger with Jalapeno Mash, Mantar Padano and Karamelize Sogan. It was so juicy. Home made lemonade was a bit too sweet. I like this place.

They serve an amazing burger in here!
Bun is also very nice, soft and light. Love it

Best Burger I’ve had in Istanbul, the beef patty melts in your mouth.

One of the best burgers we have ever had. A must try if you are in Istanbul. I just wish they had a joint in London.

Burger was delicious and you can feel how good they made it. I recommend everyone to try it. The place very small but it’s okay. Try it on my responsibility 🙌

During my life I never ever ate a beef burger like what I ate in this restaurant.
To be honest It deserves more than five stars.
Also, the France fries is very very delicious 😭❤
