Value-forward Turkish-style pizza and chicken spot by the Çapa tram with generous portions, fast service at off-peak times, and occasional consistency and speed issues.
İskuji Pizza delivers solid food quality with tasty pizzas and generous portions at reasonable prices, earning strong loyalty among students and repeat visitors. However, inconsistent execution on toppings and notably variable service speed prevent a higher grade, while the basic roadside setting and cramped tables lack the appeal needed for destination dining.
Right by the Çapa tram, the room feels casual and bustling with a steady flow of students and families. Reviewers highlight friendly staff and complimentary tea, while some call out slow tickets at peak times. One diner summed it up: "good value, filling plates, and a handy location." The cooking leans toward generous, comfort-driven pizzas and chicken with familiar sauces like BBQ and a spicy Mexican option. Expect hearty toppings and sizable portions more than refinement. If you like bold, satisfying plates and do not mind the occasional wait, it fits the bill. For families, this is practical: kids can share pizza, fries, and mild chicken. The menu includes vegetarian pies and salads, but vegan mains are limited. Seating is tight inside, and parking is scarce, so arrive by tram if you are rolling in with strollers.
