COOKSHOP. Galataport — Restaurant in Beyoğlu

International cuisine with an extensive menu, you are sure to find something you would like. The portions are large and can be shared or had individually. We shared chicken nachos, kofte, and spaghetti bolognese. They were all good: If you are into nachos and this style of food then you will love the chicken nachos The kofte was oily in my opinion but that is usual in Turkish food. I liked it a lot especially with the rice which was amazing, you have to try it I wasn't a fan of the spaghetti, but it is objectively good. The yogurt on top adds a tang that adds a Turkish flair to the dish.

The service was excellent, the waiter who helped us was very on top of things and smart/strategic into making our orders to offset the wait time (due to crowd) and have a smooth experience. The lady at the front is also very welcoming and kind. Depending on where you sit the atmosphere could be great or maybe not. I didn't find anything special, but the view of the sea by Galataport from a distance was nice. You should go and try out your own experience, but as a tourist with limited time maybe try another restaurant in...

We picked the place according to the name as most of the cookshops has nice food and good service.... However, this one was horrible!! The service was soooo slow... Even tea took forever!! Tea service in turkey where tea is always ready!! Moreover, we brought a cake to surprise our friend for her birthday!! They just needed to put the candles on the cake... It took them more than 30 minutes!! And when I went to aks what happened they said we are preparing the cake!!!!! Like whaaaaat!!!! Nervertheless, we've been charged 100 TL just extra service for that birthday!!! Yet when we saw the amount were written to the bill by handwriting my friends decided to go and to talk to the supervisor who's in a different floor... At the end we discovered that the charge was 5 Tl per person which makes the extra service fee 30 tl in total not 100 as they wanted to fool us!!

We all were mad and disappointed... We didn't have fun at all in our girls day out!!

Please don't go there!! The Galataport is full of other ...

I came with my colleagues for brunch. It was not that crowded, but the service was very slow. While we were waiting for bread, our breakfast became cold. They forgot to bring coffee in time, so it was also cold. We wanted to make a surprise for one of my colleagues as it was her bday, we asked a waiter to bring a cake we bought. But the waiter ruined all the surprise idea bringing plates, forks and knives before the cake. And we asked to bring it two times, as the time was running. On top of that they tried to charge us 100Tl for cutting the cake. I didn’t wanna argue or complain as it was Ramadan, but my colleagues talked to a manager, and it appeared they charged us 70 Tl more. We left the cafe in angry and bad mood . What makes me upset most is that people were trying to steal money from us during holy bayram. If they could provide good service, we would definitely leave good tips. Unfortunately, ...
