I’ve been to countless restaurants in Turkey, but this one is simply the best and here’s why. The meals here are truly top-notch. You can taste the freshness in every ingredient, and even something as simple as chicken skewers bursts with flavor. As you know, chicken often tends to be bland, but here it’s a completely different story.
I’ve tried many dishes from their main menu as well as their Ottoman cuisine selection, and I highly recommend the black plum stew. It’s a rare find, and a delicious reminder of how exceptional Turkish cuisine can be.
Their appetizers are another highlight; incredibly fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. The waiters are kind, the service is impressively fast, and I love that they have an online menu so you can see the prices before you visit. They do have a 10% service fee, which I think is well deserved.
This is exactly how restaurants should be. Amazing views, excellent service, and food that truly represents the country. You know exactly what things cost, and you can see that the staff are simply focused on doing their jobs to the highest standard. Kudos to them.
For the quality, this place is far from expensive. Many nearby restaurants charge similar prices without offering the same quality of food, view, or service.
I’ve brought many guests here, and almost all of them have said it’s the best restaurant they’ve ever visited in Turkey.
I have huge respect for people who put genuine care into what they do and this restaurant is full of them. I never write reviews but all of this made...
Read moreAsians take note. Saw the reviews and photos of this place and booked dinner for 4.
Reached on time and was shown to our table. It was almost the furthest table but I didn't pay much attention to it.
After we sat down I saw that the table beside was being cleared and had a marginally better view.
I asked the waiter serving us if we could change and his reply was " Of course not, that table is already reserved".
I was quite shocked at the reply but decided to ignore it.
However, the waiter's poor attitude became more obvious after that. It was quite windy and there was no offer of any shawl for the 2 ladies at my table.
However the minute the guests at the next table sat down, the same waiter brought and offered the shawls.
The waiter was not helpful when we had questions about the dishes and size portions.
Another waiter serving us the food was no better in service and attitude. He kept bumping into my wife when placing the food on the table.
Our food bowls were also cleared promptly even when there was still some food in it.
I can't exactly describe the whole experience but it was very clear that the service was deliberately different.
Food was good, the view and ambience were great.
However if you are Asian, give ...

Attention all visitors to Istanbul! If you're looking for a restaurant with a nice view but great food, steer clear of this place. While the scenery might be breathtaking, the food is a different story. Picture this: reheated frozen meals that taste like they've seen better days. You'll be burping non-stop, which could turn your next day into a melodious symphony of belches.
If you were planning to enjoy your own subway sandwich while admiring the view, sorry to burst your bubble, but they don't allow that. I guess they want to keep their monopoly on serving mediocre food intact. Speaking of which, the prices here are sky-high, comparable to the fanciest joints in town. On top of that, they have the audacity to charge you an additional 225 lira for service. Ouch!
Don't fall for the trap of fake reviews or tasteless humans who might lead you astray. Save your taste buds and hard-earned money for a better dining experience elsewhere. Trust me, you'll thank me later....
