This restaurant used to be much better, last night I sat down with my friend to drink just one cocktail and go home. They served us and the waiter spilled my cocktail a little but didn't even bother to give me a tissue, he just turned around and said "sorry". I waited for the bill for 10 minutes and asked twice, where in the end I said bring it or I leave. The bill is coming, I really wanted to pay attention to the prices because it's dark and it used to happen to me when I ordered a lot that the bill always seems to be higher than it should be. I looked at one cocktail 600 TL as it was written in the menu, two cocktails 1200 TL and below they added "açık hava" 250 TL. I joked and asked "what is this air I'm breathing" he said "no is the service"?! What kind of service do I have to pay for two cocktails and where does it say that it has to be paid for, I don't see it on the menu, maybe that night I had exactly 1200 tl and no more, to which he very cheekily replied "ok, I'll wipe it off". I'm sorry because the place used to be really popular, but unfortunately the waiters are very disinterested, rude, it's been the same to me for years and it's not the same place as it was 4 years ago.

I went there with 3 other friends, actually the food is not so good, but it looks good. View is the only thing that is nice there. We really had to wait for 45 for the food to come. I did enjoy the fact that We had to wait so long and they could not care less. Although we were not in a rush to eat and go but from the starter to main, waiting this long is not really acceptable. It just shows people are not working well when being at the place under that managment. So, of course that I would never ever, tell anyone to go there and eat. It is all up to you to decide By the way the burger in the photo is 85 Tl + 50 Tl for the service

Such an anticlimax. Don’t be fooled by the photos I’ve uploaded - the food may look as good as the views, but it was served cold on stale bread (eggs benedict). The biggest problem with this restaurant was the poor service and lack of system amongst the staff: it was chaotic and seemed like a free for all. We had to ask to be given a menu; we were constantly ignored; and even after ordering, we had to ask a second time for our drinks and food to be delivered. It is expensive for Istanbul standards, so definitely not a place I’ll be visiting again.

In the new hip-ville of Arnavutköy (translates to Albanian farm), just a minute or two walk north of Bebek park, you will find Chilai. This is a place where people dress up like glitzy Instagram celebrities (probably because they are) and order fancy cocktails and listen to house music. The menu, accordingly, is only 5% Turkish. The overpriced beef carpaccio avocado rolls and haute-couture cocktails are mitigated by a gorgeous view of the bosphorus, and aforementioned Instagram celebrities who take selfies at breakneck speed (pun intended?)

It's a place that has no plus points other than being by the sea. Interior architecture, furniture, decoration, menu design, presentations, everything is very bad. I recommend that they consult with an interior designer and graphic designer. The place does not have a corporate language. They didn't even bother to wipe the stain on the coffee cup. There is a tin ashtray on the table. Gold detailed table lamp says 'What am I doing here?’. The employees are neither friendly nor polite. They treat customers according to their order.

Bebek tarafının en guzel mekanlarindan biri. Denize sıfır konumu, müşteriye karşı ilgi gayet güzel. Konumuna göre fiyatları su anki dönem için normal buldum. Filtre kahve, Türk kahvesi vb içecekler 100 TL'den başlamakta. Tatlılar 250 TL'dir.
