We love the environment and the service. The food was delicious and tasted like home all very good. We had our coffee at the back of the restaurant, and it was amicable. It felt like we were in the backyard of our house

My little sweet coffeeshop in Yeldeğirmeni. I visit here for years, it always provides developing and good tastes. I brought many friends to Rucio and have not seen anyone disliked here. I live in abroad now and this is one of places I really miss. Also, owner Banu is a great person and makes sure that everyone is well taken care and happy here. I especially suggest here for breakfast and having coffee.

Walked by with my friend a few weeks ago and we decided to have some breakfast here. I had a lovely tuna salad on bread and some fresh orange juice. Would recommend it to any local, but also to any tourist like us!

Cozy place for a great churchill, cup of coffee or flat white, sweet or savory breakfast (vegetarian too). Nice ambiente, very friendly owner. Drinks and food made with passion. It's our pleasure to return.
