The morning of April 23rd — National Sovereignty and Children's Day in Turkey — belongs to ceremonies, performances and school celebrations. By the time the day is over, what remains is a tired but happy family and the question of dinner. Mahsun Usta is ready for that evening, with its spacious hall inside the historic Yeşilköy Train Station built in 1871. A Dinner You Can Bring Children To When families with children choose a restaurant for the evening, the real question is whether the child will get bored and whether the neighbouring tables will mind. In our partitioned, airy hall the tables sit far apart, so even a short lap around the room disturbs nobody. And because our concept is 100% halal and entirely alcohol-free, the atmosphere stays a family atmosphere well into the evening. What Comes to the Table Meat is at the heart of the kitchen: dry-aged ribeye and premium cuts, lamb chops grilled over wood, yaprak kebab and sac kavurma. Lamb tandır, rested for six hours in the earth oven, is the dish best suited to sharing. Köfte and grilled options that children eat happily are on the menu too. Mezes such as haydari, spicy ezme and smoked aubergine open the table; künefe and Antep baklava close the evening. Open on the Public Holiday Because April 23rd is a public holiday, many venues are closed or run a limited service. We are open on the holiday and our evening service runs until 23:00 — so even a long afternoon after the ceremonies still leaves plenty of time for dinner. Reservations and Directions Yeşilköy Mh.

Is a table with children comfortable in the evening?
Yes. Because the venue is entirely alcohol-free, voices at neighbouring tables do not rise as the evening goes on, so families with children remain comfortable even late. The garden section suits situations where children get up and move better than indoors. Evening service runs until 23:00 and a reservation is advisable after 18:00. Yeşilköy Mh. Demiryolu Cd.
