WasanJanuary 21, 2015A few minutes away from taksim,, the view is charming! I would recommend going during the sunset,,seafood risotto was so good,, overall its expensive and the waiter wasn't friendly..
Damian MercadoJuly 4, 2015The ribs are delicious, so is the octopus, the grape leaves salad, the lamb and the seabass risotto. Great service as well. You can't go wrong with this one, but it'll cost you.
- K HSeptember 4, 2014Fantastic restaurant with beautifully presented food (waiters are extremely professional and explain each dish too). Stunning view at night, beautiful decor within - highly recommended!

Jihye KMarch 22, 2017For now giving 3 points since the 'gentle'man was not really nice while checking rez. Better to say "we will try to give the best seat" other than "we reserve a seat for nobody" in unfriendly manner.

Morten HøfftOctober 9, 2014Dolma and view is amazing. But it is fairly expensive. Difficult to keep under 120 lire per person
Nicola DondiMarch 30, 2013Go for the artichoke - excellent service, we were very pleased with the experience.
Adelya BegAugust 27, 2012nice but unfortunately half-empty restaurant...grilled octopus is delicious hot stater!
Tim O'DonovanAugust 13, 2014Beautiful setting with absolutely stunning views across the city. Shame about the rather stuffy service and average food.
