Best places: Mediterranean restaurants in Turkey

👍👍 Wow, wow, wow! Brought my small group of ladies to Resto Han for the first time, and we all had a fabulous time with the live music! The singer was excellent, he was singing it English, Turkish and Spanish. The foods were delicious, they were able to accommodate two ladies with strict gluten free d...

👍👍 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...

🫤 The 2 stars are given for the Terrasse, located in a calm street. As for the service we were disappointing by the unprofessional staff, the waiters shooting at each other, one of them smoking cigarette just next to fish fridge then continue serving without even washing his hands. The food taste good...

😠 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....

Seafood, wood-fired meat dishes & desserts are offered at this understated venue with patio seating.

😠 ** High Ratings are FAKE** **Visit at your own risk** Heads up, everyone – don't get fooled by the high ratings. It's a total sham. I visited the place, expecting something great because of its Google ratings. But what a letdown! The place was practically empty, and the kitchen looked like a mess –...

👍👍 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 💯

Intimate rooftop spot with panoramic views & outdoor seating, serving gourmet seafood & steak mains.

👍👍 Hands down the best restaurant in all of Turkey. I am glad I waited to leave a review (not on purpose) but to realize how incredible their food really was. It was our first restaurant in Turkey to eat at and we did try other great restaurants in Istanbul, Cappadocia and Izmir but nothing like this r...

Relaxed restaurant providing familiar snacks, including falafel dishes, wraps & pizza.

🫤 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...

👍👍 Great experience. First, the restaurant has gluten free options which is not always easy to come by in Istanbul. They have gluten free bread, beer, and plenty of dishes to choose from. If gluten free options don’t matter to you, id still highly recommend! It has wonderful and friendly staff, is in a...

🫤 Highly over priced!!!! We ate there the first night as it was near our hotel. We came to find out that whole are is a huge tourist trap and prices are much higher than they should be. Having said that, The people were friendly, the food and sheesha were good, but it cost us 3 times more than simi...

👍👍 Had an excellent experience here. The food was delicious and the staff were friendly and attentive. I ordered the stuffed vine leaves and they were one of the best I have ever had, so flavourful. I also ate a dish consisting of diced cooked beef on a yoghurt and eggplant base, it was absolutely deli...

👍👍 The history and architecture of the building is amazing as it is but the food was absolutely perfect. Went out for lunch and shared a meal that filled us both up, was delicious, service was quick and the waiter was very helpful and kind. Would recommend thank you !

😠 I think something changed here. The food does not look at all like the pictures and was not nice. The „medium“ steak was cooked very very well and the sauce looked like it was on someone elses table before and standong there for hours before it came on our table. The sauce smelled like a „peper“ sau...

👍👍 Simone Istanbul offers an extraordinary experience that captivates all senses. The cocktails are expertly crafted, showcasing a delightful blend of flavors that leave a lasting impression. The historical Istanbul views from the venue are simply breathtaking, adding a touch of magic to the entire eve...

Low-key spot with a terrace, serving hot & cold shared plates & other classic Aegean fare.

😐 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...
