About By Kinyas Restaurant
By Kinyas Restaurant is a Fatih restaurant with a broad daily schedule. The public details are limited, so the safest way to evaluate it is by its location, hours, dress code rather than by claims about cuisine, price, chef, awards, or service format.
It is open Monday through Sunday from 9 AM to 1 AM. The dress code is smart casual, which makes neat, simple clothing the right baseline. Beyond those confirmed details, diners should avoid assuming a specific menu style, price tier, dining format, or special-occasion positioning before checking directly with the restaurant.
Choose it for Fatih convenience and broad hours
For a first-timer in Fatih, By Kinyas Restaurant is easiest to understand as a practical option with long daily operating hours. The schedule can be useful for plans that need flexibility, whether the day starts early or runs late. Smart casual dress is the confirmed guidance, so there is no need to plan around formal attire.
Where the listing is less useful is in setting expectations beyond the basics. There is no cuisine type, price range, award history, chef name, seat count, menu format, or service style in the available facts. If those details matter for your decision, confirm them directly before making plans.
Compare it with other options carefully
When comparing By Kinyas Restaurant with Avlu Restaurant, the most reliable distinction here is not a specific cuisine, price, or format, because those details are not for By Kinyas Restaurant. Use the comparison to decide which venue better fits your timing, location needs, any details you confirm directly.
Seasons Restaurant, Turk Art Terrace Restaurant, Divella Bistro Restaurant, La Pistache Patisserie are also useful names to consider when planning where to eat.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
By Kinyas sits quietly in Cankurtaran, where Ottoman-era stone and the slower rhythms of Fatih shape the evening. The room favors the unhurried logic of classical Turkish hospitality: shared cold mezes arrive first, conversation settles in, and mains follow at a measured pace. The restaurant reads as both historic and intimate, drawing a local clientele that values the ritual of the meal more than theatrical spectacle. Rather than the tourist-facing terraces by the Marmara, By Kinyas feels like a neighborhood refuge — steady, low-key and respectful of a traditional dining tempo.
Best For
This is a dinner destination best enjoyed with others. The menu’s emphasis on shared mezes and mains makes it well suited to family gatherings, date nights and modest celebrations where lingering is part of the plan. Tables are set up for communal passing of plates, so groups that enjoy tasting a variety of starters will get the best sense of the kitchen. The tone of the neighbourhood and the restaurant’s unhurried service also make it a good pick for diners who prefer quieter, more contemplative meals over rushed service.
Ordering Tips
Begin the meal with a variety of cold mezes—classical plates like ezme or haydari are specifically mentioned as part of the local rhythm—and treat them as the start rather than an appetizer to rush. Expect a measured service pace: mezes are shared across the table, then mains arrive to reward patience. Given the restaurant’s signature items (Chicken Shish, Seafood Paella, Grilled Kabobs), plan a mix of grilled mains and a seafood option for contrast, and let the table share so everyone samples multiple dishes.

Where to look if this is not the right fit
Choose Avlu Restaurant if the meal needs a clearer modern-cuisine frame and the higher ₺₺₺ tier fits the plan. Choose Seasons Restaurant if staying within Fatih is the main requirement and a direct local alternative is more useful than a broader city search.
Restaurant context
How it compares in Fatih
By Kinyas Restaurant is the low-friction choice in this set: better for a casual meal worked around a day in Fatih than for diners who want a clearly signposted cuisine style or special-occasion polish. Avlu Restaurant is the stronger choice for a more deliberate modern-cuisine booking, especially with its ₺₺₺ positioning.
Seasons Restaurant is the closer Fatih cross-shop when the decision is location-led. Turk Art Terrace Restaurant should be considered when setting matters more than a quick casual meal, while Divella Bistro Restaurant is the better comparison for a bistro-style alternative.
La Pistache Patisserie is not a direct dinner substitute; use it when the plan is lighter or pastry-led. For a full meal with minimal planning, By Kinyas Restaurant is the easier choice; for a more defined dining brief, Avlu or Seasons are safer cross-shops.
