lovely hotel, garden, friendly people, roof terrace and free wi fi. good character in the rooms
Attention! It's surrounded by imposters. Look for the sign: "SINCE 1920" . Do as the locals do... plate of grilled beef, spicy tomato sauce and white bean salad with ayran, a salted yogurt drink. CN.
Definitely one of my highlights from my stay in Istanbul. Everything was delicious - from the hot dishes to the salads - and mostly unlike what I thought Turkish food was supposed to be. A delight..
Great spot for tourists and locals... but not too touristy. Head to Pierre Loti for a scenic lookout - look down at the rest of the city.
Best Turkish coffee in Istanbul: without so-common sourness of Turkish coffee it has a mild chocolate note instead. If you feel adventurous order a cup of damla sakızlı – Turkish coffee with mastic
You must try the "Sur tatlisi". Delicious dessert made of ice cream, cheese and kadaif
Forget about the touristy stalls selling Lokum at the Spice Bazaar, go to Altan for the real thing Read more.

You should go there either weekdays or for lunch. Otherwise it is always full of people. Great food, great atmosphere. Thanks
Meyhane food in a brasserie setting. Sofyali pays attention to seasonal produce, with meze that includes dressed chard stalks with walnut tarrator sauce. Staff are extra-nice. Booking essential.
One of the best authentic Turkish cuisine tasting possibility. Durum for sure. Meze choices as well successful.
The Ravioli is great, fill it with meat or potato, it's the same.Great place to have lunch just under the office.
One of the best places to eat the famous "fasulye" in Istanbul. The classic menu would be Blacksea region beans, rice, pickles and yogurt.
Iftarda fix menu 29 olan yerde, fix menu istemiyorum derseniz, o fix menu icerisindekilerin bir kismini yiyerek 42 lira odemek zorunda birakiyorlar. Kuvere 6 lira yazmislar sadece. Buyuk terbiyesizlik
One of the best Ottoman cuisines you can try in Istanbul, located next to Kariye museum in an old neighbourhood of Istanbul.
Simply amazing. Great ambience and service and the lamb rack is simply a slice of mouthwatering heaven!!
Place is hidden, but cozy. As for the food, my poisoned-by-MSG-tongue is hardly to adapt. But several food are edible and suitable for Asian
This is very famous area especially for the last years in Taksim/Beyoglu and you can find whatever you like to do/eat/drink around this part of Istanbul..
View is a must. Food is presented nicely but all dishes were cold. The wine on the menu was not the same vintage and they ran out of the 2nd bottle of Montana Chardonnay !
As the most popular comment in Turkish says the profiterol is rather bad. But it's an old Istanbul istitution and is worth a visit.
Official site http://www.vefa.com.tr/boza.html. Drink it there or buy a bottle. Superb.
i love mixing sweets and meats...double brownie, cherry crumble, drip coffee, or just a slab of salami. all amazing...
This place is amazing! Been here three nights in a row as mum refuses to eat lamb or beef which is difficult in a Muslim country! The fish is very fresh! Must try.
Don't miss this place, best meat and cheese in istanbul. Simply out of this world. Upstairs they have a restaurant making fresh daily meals. Manti, itch, kisir etc.... Ammmmazing
You can find delicious "authentic Turkish breakfast" here all day long (between 06:30 until 22:30). Never leave without trying

The best kebap restaurant in Istanbul ever.. They have very very delicious hot aubergine salad.. & you must try it surely !!
It’s behind a tiny grocery store in Besiktas. That appears unchanged since the 1920s. Order kaymak (clotted cream from buffalo milk), honey, cheese, olives and bread served with tea and buffalo milk. Read more.
Very sorry I did not get to try the kaymak. So if you do make the trek out - don't forget that it's essentially a breakfast / lunch place, so don't bother in the afternoons...
So good. Get to the eagle statue. Look him in the eye then go to the left and it is two stores down on the left

The first of a wildly popular chain of restaurants serving Gaziantep grills, Develi overlooks a pretty square 10 minutes’ drive from Sultanahmet.
The best view which l have in Istanbul with very lovely music & of course they have a great foods .. ;) Borsa is the best !!
Surrounded by the best fashion brands, ideal place to see and to be seen. Too crowded. Slow service.
Simply finding this subterranean kebab joint located on a quiet Beyoğlu alley, is part of the fun

Take the Bosporus cruise from here Choose the ship with the green carpet+white leather sofa flybridge!
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
Duck confit & Risotto. Delicious risotto, with tarragon, dried cranberries, orange sílices and hazelnuts!
My hot chocolate is much better, and cost 1/5 of 7,5 liras...
Try Turkish crepes...it's delicious (with meat, potatoes or cheese). All prepared on spot, in front of you.
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.
Offering a tempting array of traditional Turkish dishes done to perfection, Kanaat in Üsküdar has been in business for decades
Tatlilari fena diil de, icmedigim suyun parasini bana odetmeye calisan koylu kurnazlarini sevmedim
Though köfte may seem like nothing more than grilled meatballs to non-locals, Turks – like New Yorkers with pizza – take their köfte very seriously
Food is great home cooked food . It's my second time there and I would go again next time I am in Istanbul
My friend Deniz Güven introduced me to this place. An incredible mixture between turkish, argentinian and brazilian way of cooking meat. Probably the best meat restaurant that i have never been.
this little cafe is next to Kağıthane (House of Paper) design house. Its breakfast menu is very rich and worth to try. Read more.
It's a particulary good place to come if you've never visited a Turkish bath before and are unsure of the etiquette.
Lonely Planet suggests a stop here and now I see why. Some of the best food I have had in istanbul so far.
