Hamdi is a Turkish restaurant in Seattle, in the U.S. state of Washington.[1][2]
Hamdi started as a pop-up restaurant in 2021,[3][4] before operating as a brick and mortar establishment in Ballard in November 2022.[5][6][7] Hamdi is owned by Berk Güldal and Katrina Schult.[8] The 50-seat restaurant operates in the space that previously housed Tarsan i Jane.[9] In 2023, four former employees filed a lawsuit over wage theft;[10][11] the lawsuit was later dismissed following a settlement.[12]
