Resto Ethnica
Turkish restaurant
👍👍 Best service and nicest food in Istanbul. Our server - Mohammed - was absolutely lovely. We had no reservation and came here after reading positive reviews about the vegetarian food. I am vegetarian, my husband is not. And I’ve mostly lived on crisps and cookies for our 10 day tour of Turkey! Resto...

😠 Please read all the one star reviews. All the 5 star reviews are fake and probably done by the friends and family of the restaurant. I would like to start by saying. Get ready to hear the word NO. - I asked for cold water, this is warm. The service person will tell you no it’s cold. You are wrong....

Amara kebap & Fish House

👍👍 Nice place! A welcoming stuff, cozy design and relaxing vibe :) Nevertheless, the food was good (because we all seek for it first) Moreover, they would treat you with some free watermelon in a hot day. Totally worth it 💯

🫤 I came to this place as reading the reviews I thought we would have a nice dinner. Instead, I was very disappointed, having tried other places around galata, which are much better. Food is worse than average, over priced. Service ok however I had to chase for the rice I had ordered to accompany my s...

ANTIQUE PIZZERIA
Italian restaurant
👍👍 We have been to this pizza restaurant for a lunch by recommendation. We noticed that the edges of both pizzas we ordered were a little burnt. When we asked, we received the answer that such problems occurred due to the difficulty of controlling the wood fire. Despite everything, the pizza was ver...

🫤 We saw the high ratings and reviews and decided to try this place. In one word, Disappointment. Prices are much higher than the average in Turkey (there is something to compare,we were in a few restaurants before) their view is just a street. The inside of the restaurant is very, very simple. Foo...

👍👍 If you love coffee should drink here! I've tried so many cafes, but by far the best espresso macchiato! Too seldom, unfortunately, in Istanbul. The toilet deserves a praise, super hygienic, also a rarity in this city! Definitely worth a visit.

😐 A lot of good reviews landed me to this place for Lunch, but 360o view was all it had. We entered the place and was greeted by the host, we asked to sit near the big windows as it was empty and had no reservation tag but to my shocked we were denied, although few minutes later another couple was all...
