The best breakfast on the Bosporus: a lavish spread of eggs, sheep’s-milk cheeses, olives, tomatoes, and warm sourdough bread on a rooftop terrace. More places to eat like a local: tandl.me/12ufz7c
In Istanbul Baklava means Gulluoglu.. You should try original Baklava with Lemonade. Lemonade is always organic and as delicious as the Baklava.
Eating here quince and/ or bread dessert is an experience. Not only for tourists but also for locals!
Great, relatively newly built aquarium with many species of fish from all around the world. Definitely worth visiting! You'll need at least 2 hours to enjoy it and see everything at a moderate pace.
Reina is offers one of the best Bosphorus views. It is also a celebrity hot spot where the glitterati can spend all night dancing on the clubs flashy bar and dance floor.
On a rooftop just off Istiklâl, by night the place is packed to hear the in-house DJ. At lunch you’ll find a half-empty restaurant and a view of ships on a sparkling sea.
A neighbourhood gem. I could come here for breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday and still not get bored. A well chosen mix of Turkish and world cuisine.
The best in Istanbul. I urge everyone, who 'loves' great food, music and atmosphere, to come and 'taste' Frankie.
Good Asian fusion and modern elegance at this new summer venue of the Niflantafl› Banyan. Highlights from a seasonal menu: searingly hot Tom Yam soup, sea bass in banana leaves, pumpkin cheesecake
A semi-circular space carved into the Ulus hillside, this is Istanbul LA-style. The menu is modern international with an emphasis on sushi. Service is more attentive the closer you are to that window
great view on the Bosphorus, great neighbourhood (Ortakoy), and of course greate food.
Very well done after London.Great art work inside and cozy decoration.The service is wonderful especially Celal Bey is a great host.gnocchi apple pie and creamy ice cream is my hit.
Also known as the Church of the Holy Saviour in Chora, this amazing church is one of the finest examples of Byzantine church architecture. Lots of beautiful frescoes and paintings to be found here
Since 1871 this family run business has made the Turkish coffee famous worldwide. Wait in the long line for a cup or go near the front window and grab a pack of freshly roasted coffee to make at home.
This place is best known for the sublime dishes it serves in its sister restaurant across the street, but Çiya is also one of Istanbul's finest kebab-makers.
This restaurant kills it with simple yet very refined Turkish food made from immaculately sourced ingredients. Don't miss the stuffed mackerel appetizer, and be sure to reserve ahead!
All points are great !! Yes it's quite expensive to have a great lunch or dinner but they deserved it.. ;)
