	Turkish Delight (washingtonpost.com)
		The name Meyhane (pronounced may-ha-neh) refers to the Turkish equivalent of a Parisian cafe, a meze restaurant that is as much social center as supper kitchen.
		One of Meyhane's pleasures is its dolma filling, a blend of rice, currants, pine nuts and herbs slow-cooked together to an almost bulgarlike consistency and used to stuff tomatoes, grape leaves, slabs of eggplant and red bell peppers.
		The "house special" Meyhane chicken is another heaping plate -- three boned and grilled thighs, spread with mashed potatoes and then stuffed into hollowed-out red peppers plus rice for $12.95 -- but the thin and flavorless mash killed the flavor; the dolma rice would be a fabulous substitute.

	Raki (alcoholic beverage) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Greece, in particular on the island of Crete, raki is a grape-based spirit made from the distillation of pomace, i.e., the pieces of grapes (including the stems and seeds) that were pressed for the winemaking process.
		Although there were many Muslims among meyhane attendants, sharia authorities could, at times, persecute them.
		With the relatively liberal atmosphere of Tanzimat Turkey, meyhane attendance among Muslims rose considerably.

	Washington City Paper Restaurant Finder
		Meyhane is my favorite neighborhood restaurant on Capitol Hill --we normally visit it once or twice a week.
		Meyhane has an extensive list of both cold and hot meze plates to enjoy and the size of the portion lets diners sample many different tastes and textures without committing to a full-course.
		Meyhane serves an excellent octopus salad -- the octopus is tender and flavorful and the accompanying dressing is delightful.

	GuideToTurkey.com in the press...
		Meyhanes, which serve alcohol, tend to come in clusters, and in Kumkapi and Beyoglu there are whole streets of them, all vying with polite desperation for your custom.
		Toward the end of the evening in a meyhane, any number of things may happen, but, despite the amount of raki consumed, drunken boorishness is very rare.
		Musicians are usually within earshot, so perhaps a group of women (out on the town without their menfolk) will rise to their feet, urged on by the shrill squealing of a zurna (a kind of elongated clarinet) and the clatter of a hand-drum and indulge in some impromptu belly-dancing.

	Unpretentious, friendly Meyhane is simply good - The Washington Times: Activity Guide - May 13, 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Meyhane, a new Turkish restaurant on Capitol Hill, is unpretentious and fun and serves tasty food at a reasonable price.
		Spicing at Meyhane is generally mild but good, letting the flavors of the fresh vegetables and well-prepared meats speak for themselves.
		Meyhane is a great alternative to American and Irish-style bars much more common on the Hill.

	Time Out Istanbul - Istanbuls living city guide online
		This place is spacious and open the way a traditional Turkish meyhane (sort of a beer hall/wine house that serves food and drinks) should be.
		And as with every meyhane, the menu is mostly comprised of mezes (like Turkish tapas), at least 30 different varieties of them.
		Meyhanes are places where the food accompanies the alcohol and so the main aim of going there is to enjoy a drink, so don’t expect gourmet food.

	The Turkish Drink, Raki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Resistance to these pernicious influences is centered round the meyhane, a sort of bistro created especially for raki drinking.
		The meyhane is a temple of Turkish cuisine, but it is also a place where people meet, talk, debate, embrace and lament.
		Turkey’s diversity is most tangible at the meyhane because it is spread out on tables for all to see.

	Time Out Istanbul - Istanbuls living city guide online
		The age-old meyhane culture of Turkey has lived through periods of alcohol prohibition and seen the rise of more modern restaurants and bars but still survives in selected spots around the city.
		The meyhane culture has been present in Istanbul since the latter half of the 15th century and, surviving through periods of Prohibition and gone through changes, still remains an important part of life in the city.
		Originally the drink served in meyhanes was not rakı but wine, but later on the former started gaining popularity and in time replaced wine as the most popular meyhane drink.

		This week, 10 Capitol Hill restaurants have organized the neighborhood's own Restaurant Week, offering a buy-one, get-one-free deal for entrees at lunch or dinner through Feb. 27.
		Some of our favorite Hill restaurants aren't participating, including Montmarte and Belga Cafe, but we'd have no qualms about dining at Cafe Berlin (dinner entrees only), Meyhane (dinner only), Tunnicliff's (lunch and dinner) or the Ugly Mug (lunch and dinner).
		Meyhane offers belly-dancing shows on the weekend, in addition to delicious Turkish food, and the Ugly Mug offers pizzas and mini burgers by chef Graig Glufling, formerly of Matchbox, and has numerous flat-screen televisions for watching college basketball.

	Maia - New York Magazine Restaurant Guide
		Like any good meyhane, or Turkish meze house, Maia offers a great variety of cold meze (up to 35, enough to satisfy a hungry pasha), all arranged on a tray the size of a satellite dish.
		It’s a tactic that works: For every familiar standby like cacik (cool cucumber-and-dill-laced yogurt), muhammara (excellent red-pepper-walnut-and-garlic paste), or patlican tava (melting fried eggplant with tomato and yogurt), you might discover a new favorite like topik (spicy chickpea balls stuffed with fl currants and pine nuts) or a tangy Turkish goat cheese.
		The bar serves a slew of newfangled martinis and a few rustic Turkish wines, but for the true meyhane experience, opt for raki, the traditional—and strong—anise-flavored liqueur.

		Luna Park tends to attract a rambunctious drinking crowd, but those who come with an appetite will be pleased to discover well-prepared Mediterranean fare like watermelon-and-feta salad, fritto misto, whole roasted fish, and a gloriously garlicky bowl of spaghetti with burst cherry tomatoes and Calabrian hot peppers.
		Like any good meyhane, Maia offers a great variety of cold meze (up to 35, enough to satisfy a hungry pasha), all arranged on a tray the size of a satellite dish that’s ceremoniously presented to the table by one of these Olympian power lifters.
		On Wednesday nights, when a live band (oud, kanun, riq, dumbek, clarinet) induces diners to take to the aisles and practice the type of free-form dancing you might have seen at a Phish concert, the busboy’s skill and agility become even more impressive.
