Customer Reviews
Truly perfection. We had the most beautiful meal, every plate a journey for the senses. The portions are generous and the food truly exceptional. The service was the best we had in a long while, from the wine, to the cocktails to even having the chef come out to explain each dish - it was one of those PERFECT dinners. Highly recommend if you’re in Istanbul, you will not regret it.
This place is phenomenal. We are here on holiday and I decided to take my boyfriend out for a birthday meal. The service was brilliant - our glasses were never empty! It’s hard to pick a standout dish but we must say, that was the best steak we have ever had. The chef came out to introduce our main dish which was a lovely touch. Definitely recommending this to any family or friends who may be in Istanbul in the future.
While the atmosphere and service are lovely, we were frankly disappointed with the food, considering the high price point.
Lovely ambiance, superb service, friendly staff, creative chef, delicious food. After receiving detailed explanation about the menu from our waitress we choose the tater tots, Korean pork belly slider and the carrot as the starters and then we continued with the gnocchi and Agnolotti, all were delicious. For the mains we went for the catch of the day and confit duck leg. Each plate was prepared like an art piece letting us explore different tastes. We made the final with crème brulee, candied pumpkin and churros. A culinary journey to explore. Highly recommended.
