Everything was just perfect they accommodated us although we didn’t have any booking
Also the fried calamari were the best calamri i have ever had in my life
The only problem is that we calculated how much would our bill come and the price was waaaay higher they even wrote the bill by hand which is so unprofessional for such an elegant place
And they charged us 30% service charges which was not mentioned

A great view of the Bosphorous and the bridge (especially nice at sunset). Good service, fresh bread (which is not often the case), a large variety of mezes and a really delicious food.

Slightly expensive for what it is but a great experience for a fancy dinner.

Excellent service, wonderful atmosphere, fantastic view and tasty and high quality food at a reasonable price. We spent altogether 2400 TLR for 1 kg fish, 2 salads, 2 deserts, side dish, beer and vine. Our neighbours were wealthy local people, which means a lot. Strongly recommend for lunch or dinner in style. Have not seen anything close to this in Istanbul in crowded touristic locations.

To be honest - what a great place with a wonderful view. The fish was cooked to perfection, however when the sides are coming 30 min before the main course it’s just not perfect…the attentive to detail is what we were missing to be 100%. But definitely a restaurant we would recommend
