By far best shisha lounge in Istanbul! Upon discovering it, came back 2 more times during my trip. The strawberry mojito(n/a) is the BEST I had. Highly recommend. Had the fries and San Sebastián one night and both were good. The staff is so nice and the service is amazing. Very attentive and keep the space clean. Never feel rushed or anything. Enjoy the atmosphere, music and views. Such a cute place and very pretty scene wherever you choose to sit. From outdoor to indoor seating. The shisha…. BEST shisha and service I’ve ever had in my life. Lasts so long and the flavor is great. Personal order was the watermelon mint and I loved it. Absolutely will be back here when I visit again! Thank you Arya ❤️

Poor sanitation, passive-aggressive waiters, mediocre food, and an incredible view. We came here for breakfast. No one greeted us at the door. Later, the host came by and said we couldn’t have a dog with us and that he should be in a dog crate. He told us to wait and gave us the dog crate. Later, we sat down to an incredible view (the only good thing about this place). We ordered breakfast. There were 4 of us, and we weren’t very hungry, but the waiter left us no choice but to order a 3-person breakfast instead of 2. In every place, unlimited tea is included in the breakfast. Here is the strange part: despite the fact that the breakfast for 3 people includes unlimited tea, he said that for the 4th person, they will charge 45 lira 3 times, which makes 135 lira extra. And they will monitor how much the 4th person will drink. We had no choice but to agree so we can finally have our breakfast. The breakfast arrived, and the thick slice of sujuk (sausage) was raw inside (it's never supposed to be raw). The egg and tomato dish was enough only for two. We told the waiter about it, and then he told us (in a humiliating tone), "I can tell them to add one more scoop." We called the manager and told him about the raw, low-quality food and the fact that they charge a lot for the poorly made food. Regarding the poor sanitation: There was a woman on the floor (for show and display purposes) making some food with dough and meat. The restaurant doesn't realize that people who pass right by her raise dust from the floor that lands on the food. Do better.

Although everyone recommended it, and the view and the location is very nice indeed, but it‘s not clean!! First, the dishes were not clean so we asked them to replace them, which is ok, it can happen anywhere. Then we got the food, I saw some hairs here and there, first time I ignored it, second time as well but then I was looking at the salad and there was a worm! I couldn’t ignore that and then we told them, first they claimed it was cheese but then they saw it moving! Then their response was “it’s only one” and I was like what are you suggesting that I should eat it? Isn’t one enough!!! So they got angry and just took the salad and everybody stopped eating! They didn’t even apologize!! It was the worst to be honest I didn’t expect that! The least they could do was apologize! I don’t recommend it! You can go to other rooftop restaurants with good view, there are many! Just not this one!

While the place is one of many in the same area, the overall experience here is different. I’m rating based on my experience having been to many other cafes around it. The vibe is cool, the view is stunning and the service is great. You just need to be smart and know what you’re ordering as to stay on budget. Otherwise, your bill can get quite high. For example, the waiter will try hard to convince you to get the “high performance” nargile which is priced at tl550 while you can easily order the classic for tl280-350. As a Nargile smoker, I can assure you that there is no difference except for the shape/look. Overall, the Nargile is excellent! Clean toilets and great drinks (Turkish coffee and Tea).

Kadir gave us phenomenal service. The ambience of the lounge and the rooftop is spectacular. You can hear the breeze of the wind , and smell the taste of the water in the air. The breakfast platter is fit for a king. Even a king would be more than satisfied at the quantity and quality of these dishes. The cheese, the honey, the sausage, the cucumber, the jalapeño the Nutella. I was so happy to look at my plate and I was happier when my plate was in my stomach. Umbrellas are provided for shade, and a smile with the service. I could spend hours here. God bless Turkiye.

We smoked love 66 with lady killer in an exclusive pipe and it did not disappoint - flavour was great and did not burn for 1.5 hours. Coals were also changed frequently! The scenes are so beautiful, so much to take in. The food was good - only thing was the Arya burger did not have any cheese or sauce which was a bit of a let down as was quite dry. The desserts were delicious, especially the cannoli 😍 All in all, I would definitely recommend for a lovely evening out. Environment is great, staff are helpful, music is good and scenes are beautiful.
