  • 5/5 salma h. 2 years ago on Google • 159 reviews
    I love that place. I took my parents there as their first outting after they arrived to turkey for the first time. It's really amazing. The view is great, the food is so tasty, there is a parking if you are coming with a car. We tried mushroom steak and it was perfect. We also ordered chicken with soy sauce and chicken with pesto, both were great. The bread was hot and freshly baked. If you are going there with public transportation know that you will walk abit up hills and down till you get there. so it can be a little exhausting for kids and old folks.

    5 stars for the magnificent view of the Golden Horn!❤️ 3 stars for breakfast, it could be much better!😉 Anyway the prices are reasonable. 2 stars for service, it should be much better than that, lots of people but service is slow!😒 I like the contactless facilities in the WC, you don't have to touch anything👍🏻 Next time I prefer to visit this place to have tea and enjoy the great view!

    Their place is really nice and the view is so good! But it’s a bit outdated, the chairs and their tables aren’t much comfortable! But their prices are very reasonable according to their decorations-there’s not much effort done on it-! The food was tasty and the staff very friendly!

    I didn’t expect to enjoy sitting there as the weather was so hot with very high humidity but fortunately the high elevation of the place “it’s almost as high as Suleymaniah Masjid hight” and as the hall is fully open there were very nice cold air currents coming from the sea side made it very enjoyable place and the cold lemonade thatI drunk made me so freshly. I noticed that most of visitors were very respectful families and most of them were big families which means that prices were affordable and they seemed as they used to come there. One more good thing is that they are very close to Suleymaniah Jamii that makes you go to pray at the Jamii as long as you’re there and return back to enjoy your time with your beloved ones.

    One my favorite spot here in istanbul, it’s close to old city and Suleymaniye mosque 🕌 I enjoy the 360 degree view of phosphorus while I have my meal, the staff are so helpful and the food is delicious 😋also the prices are good. The place is too big I prefer to stay outside to enjoy the full view.

    Food is delicious although a bit on the expensive side. The place was very crowded when we I went there though so it was a bit hard to get the staffs' attention when trying to order something. They also have an English menu so that was very helpful. The view outside was nice, although it was very windy and cold so I opted to sit inside.

    Good views, good food, decent prices

  • 4/5 Ahmed M. 1 year ago on Google
    Good cafe has a great view of Istanbul city

  • 4/5 Saba A. 2 years ago on Google
    The food and the view are really awesome, but I give it 4 stars because it is crowded and it is far you need to go by a car. It is really cold and windy there even in summer, they offer blankets but I believe it is better to take your own jacket there. Average food price for three people was 260tl, so it's not that expensive. There are cats at the place as most of istanbul's places.

    Came over all the way from Canada to taste their great shisha and delicious plates. The scenery of the bosphorus and golden horn was awesome. Definitely recommended must go place!!!

  • 1/5 Recep S. 2 years ago on Google
    First I thought they work their waiters by force, cause when I want anything I needed to tell it twice, I needed to ask "may you wipe the table please?" Then I ordered the food and I asked chilly sauce but it didn't come at first, to contact with waiters was almost impossible, one of waiters made gestures such as I will see you soon, but totally disappeared. Finally a really good waiter served, thanks to him. But be careful about your choice to not get irritated.

    Nice restaurant, good service, great view!

  • 2/5 Anas F. 1 year ago on Google
    The best part was the view, other than this same usual issues with other restaurants: Many cats around you, customer service level needs improvement. Food is fine but it’s over prices compared to meal volume.

  • 5/5 Mia 1 year ago on Google
    We stumbled upon this gem on our second night in Istanbul. The food is delicious and the San Sébastien cheesecake is the best I've ever had! The view is beautiful, a must for anyone visiting Istanbul for the first time.

  • 2/5 Moh A. 1 year ago on Google
    The only good thing here is the view. Very lazy staff they never attend you without going to them multiple times. Terrible Shisha and tea.

    The best evening view on Istanbul. I always visit when in Istanbul. Highly recommended

  • 4/5 Karim R. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing view from the terrace. The burnt basque cheesecake (san sebastian) was fine, not the best. The lemonade was good. Music isn’t too loud which is a plus! Would come again to enjoy the view.

👍 The place is cozy, but not that big. We visited at night so it wasn’t crowded. The sweets were special, I loved the Caramel Tres Leches, it was the best! Baklava, pudding and other desserts were so tasty and the Cappuccino was good. As for the stuff, they were friendly but did not speak much English...
