Ararat Terrace Restaurant & Rooftop
Restaurant
👍👍 Best food in Turkey 100%. With everyone one calling at you while walking it’s hard to navigate the streets. But I’m so thankful we were ushered to Ararat because the food, drinks, service and ambiance were the best I’ve had in my travels around Turkey. Their chicken with pistachio and cream was sooo...

On our 6 day trip to Istanbul we visited this restaurant twice, because of the super-friendly staff, the nice atmosphere and of course the tasty food. On our second visit though, the personnel was slightly overwhelmed due to the m...

👍👍 There's a group of regular dart players here, especially on Fridays for the informal blind doubles Cricket tournament.

😠 I don’t recommed this place. We were in Istanbul for a few days, and we went to the pub every evening. Last evening the owner drank alcohol with us. One beer cost 2.5€ we drank 50 beers, and he tried to charge us 500€. Also, when we told him that it was impossible that we had spent so much, he start...

😠 So many fake reviews on for this restaurant... I'm assuming they're paying for fake reviews somehow, who knows. It's a pretty average restaurant but with high prices. Have a look through the recent reviews and you'll see that they're all 5 star for everything, no variations. The food is pretty basic...

Night club
😐 The Club offers a mixed experience. On one hand, the drinks are reasonably priced, which is definitely a plus. On the other hand, the overall quality leaves something to be desired. The real standout feature of this place is the DJ - absolutely amazing! They know how to keep the energy up and the c...
