Have a seat and enjoy the beginning of a journey that started on the vibrant streets of Mersin, a city on Turkey's southeast Mediterranean coast, known as the true home of Tantuni. The streets of Mersin have shared the same culture, flavours, and traditions for centuries — and now, you can experience it right here in Dalston, London.  “We’re thrilled to have been featured in The Guardian by Yotam Ottolenghi!” 

At Mersin Tantuni, we bring the rich taste of Turkish street food and Mediterranean cuisine to Hackney with fresh, healthy meals prepared daily. From our famous Tantuni wraps to our homemade Çiğ Köfte,  Balkan Meatball Köfte, and freshly grilled Balık Ekmek, every bite reflects the authentic flavours of Mersin.

We are proud to be one of the top-rated Turkish restaurants in Dalston, with 5-star Google reviews, known for our delicious food, friendly service, and welcoming atmosphere. Our traditionally designed space, inspired by Turkish street food culture, provides the perfect setting to enjoy authentic Turkish dishes, desserts, and drinks.

Don’t forget to try our signature Künefe (Knafeh) — a classic Turkish dessert loved by many.

We are located just next to EartH Hackney, making us the perfect stop for a meal before or after your night out.
