Pera Thai Istanbul

By far the best in town

""Pera Thai" is for you if you're bored with Istanbul kebabs and are looking for some fancy ethnic cuisine. This restaurant has quality for great prices."

I have always had a thing for Thai food. I find it very refined and perfect for my taste buds. Before, I used to wait to travel abroad to treat myself with this cuisine but now it's in my neighborhood.

Once you enter Peta Thai you find yourself in a different world. Somewhere away from the hustle of the city. The food is very delicious with creative touches according to the seasonal varieties of nature. The chefs are of course Thai and the restaurant has a Certificate of Excellence from Thailand.

Whatever Thai dish you are in love with, you can get it here. The service is flawless, attentive and prompt. The food is refined, delicious and plenty in quantity.

If you are bored with kebabs and are looking for a fancy cuisine do stop by here for an unforgettable meal. The price and quality ratio is just perfect!
