Overpriced for the Quality – Needs Improvement

My spouse and I dined at this restaurant, and while some aspects were enjoyable, our overall experience did not meet expectations. The food was not bad, some dishes were tasty, but they were far from being exceptional or worthy of the price we paid. The appetizers and main courses were average at best, nothing special in terms of taste or presentation—something you could easily find at many other restaurants.

The Real Issue: Price vs. Quality

The biggest concern here is the pricing, which simply does not match the quality of the food. The fixed menu was priced at 3,750 TL per person, including only a single glass of wine, which was a very basic Doluca—one of the lowest-tier options available. A more refined wine selection would have been expected for this price.

Additionally, we ordered a bottle of wine, which retails for around 500 TL in stores, but at the restaurant, it was priced at an outrageous 3,300 TL. Our total bill came to 11,900 TL, which, based on the current exchange rate (37 TL per Euro), equals approximately 330 Euros.

Comparing to Global Standards

To put this into perspective, I have dined at Michelin-starred restaurants in some of the most expensive cities in the world, including Paris and Amsterdam. In those establishments, I enjoyed far superior meals, with two bottles of high-quality wine included, and the bill never exceeded 150-200 Euros for two people. Yet here, for a meal that was simply average, I ended up paying more than I have at Michelin-starred fine dining establishments in Europe. This is simply unjustifiable.

What Are You Really Paying For?

One thing is clear: the restaurant’s design and ambiance are stunning. However, the pricing structure makes it feel like they are trying to sell the venue itself rather than the dining experience. The building is old, and it seems as if the high prices are meant to cover rental costs rather than reflect the value of the food.

Furthermore, the dance performance was underwhelming and does not justify the high cost.

Exceptional Service – But That’s Not Enough

One positive aspect was the staff, who were absolutely wonderful—extremely professional, respectful, and attentive. The service was top-tier, and I have nothing but praise for the team.

Final Verdict: Not Worth the Price

While the ambiance and service were impressive, the pricing needs serious reconsideration. A meal of this standard should be priced at 6,000-7,000 TL at most. With more reasonable pricing, this restaurant could attract a much wider audience and provide a truly enjoyable experience.

However, at its current price point, I would not return, nor would I recommend it. There are far better options available for both quality and value.

Beautiful restaurant in a fabulous setting, located underground in a former cistern.  The food was delicious and beautifully presented, albeit expensive, which is understandable given that this is a fine dining restaurant.  The drinks are however ridiculously overpriced.  We were charged 700 Turkish lira (about £16) each for a small cup of Turkish coffee (see photo below), which is a blatant rip off - admittedly I didn’t check the price of the coffee as I did not expect it to be so extortionate.  The wines are also very expensive, but that was expected and they were delicious, so worth the price.  We also really enjoyed the music and the live dancers.  All in all, an enjoyable evening, but one that was slightly soured by the cost of the drinks.

Very nice restaurant with so many good flavors and a magnificent show!
The service was amazing and very kind and also whatever we wanted they were around us to make us happy!
We come from a very crowded island with tourism from Greece so we know what difficult case the service is .. so many thanks and we recommend for sure!

First the negatives:
- LOCAL drinks are included with the menu, this wasn't very clear to me and it isn't indicated which ones are local, so İ picked one that wasn't included and let the free one go to waste.
- service was a little slow at times
- i mentioned beforehand being bad with yogurt (severely lactose intolerant, esp with yogurt for some reason). The solution was to be served the same menu and İ was simply warned of what contained milk. While İ did enjoy being able to have a little taste of everything, even if İ couldn't finish it, it would have been nice if they double checked if İ was intolerant or allergic - huge difference!

As for the positives...whew.
- dining in a ROMAN CİSTERN. Bonus points for the person seating me, who gave a short rundown of the history of the place when he found out i study history. Very nice!
- the cocktail I had was one of a kind. İ had the cotton blossom. Sweet, pleasantly bitter, a punch of yuzu, i went through a whole experience with each sip. There were dried chamomile flowers on top for a dried floral whiff every time İ had some. "Cotton blossom" was a fantastic name for this fantastic drink.
- the food was hands down incredible. The care and attention to detail given to each individual dish were incredible, and each had a few different ways to experience it by having it with the little garnishes. İ never would have expected beets, berries and mint to go together, but İ ate almost the entire plate despite the labneh in it. The mezze was varied and covered everything - an earthy dish, a fresh dish, a salty savory dish etcetera. My main course, the beef shashlik, was so tender i thought for a second they had served me a minced meat kebab. They truly know how to elevate their ingredients beyond simply the sum of them.

Despite some small hiccups with the service i had an absolutely fantastic time, and if the current menu wasn't so heavily dairy-based İ would 110% go back!

Go for the ambience, not for the food!

The location is good (close to Hagia Sofia) and the setting and ambience are nice.

The staff are attentive and friendly - topped up bread regularly.

Unfortunately, the food was a letdown. I'm not sure why there are so many high  reviews for food that we found to be lower in quality compared to other restaurants in the area.

Tomato pasta is fine, nothing special.
Meatballs small and dry.

The asparagus risotto was a big disappointment, unfortunately very bland and watery.

The quality unfortunately does not justify the price charged (the three dishes above plus two starters and still water was 3,200 Lira/ £75).

All in all, I would say to go for dinner somewhere else (Gülhane Şark Sofrası was more reasonably priced and tasty) and come here for a drink and see the live show.
