    My favorite world cuisine restaurant in the city. The attention to detail in every meal is…read moreexquisite, and many of the meals I had were the bext examples of their kind that I ever had; such as the falafels, the sashimi and the calf cheek. The waiters also manage to be super attentive without overbearing. These are bolstered by what I think is one of the best views of the area.

    Genuinely as terrible a fine dining experience as we had while in Istanbul. Hostess could not…read morelocate our reservation, but when we provided email confirmations, she said "oh you did it online, I can help you anyway". Like this was a completely foreign concept. Then was asked "are you a guest at the hotel?" When we answered no, we were advised "there is a smart casual dress code, but I can help you anyway". Wife was wearing a floor length dress and I had on slacks and a button down shirt. Other tables were wearing ripped jeans and floral shorts. Table staff was no better. Still water being poured included being spilled on the tablecloth. First interaction with waiter was "do you know watcha want?" Burrata appetizer was plopped on our table without comment. Food was average at best. Steak was not available cooked to order, only available medium well. Shared side dish of Mac and cheese was a soupy mess. Both cocktails and still water went un-refilled for 20+ minutes. Paying of the bill included multiple receipts being dropped all over the table. View was certainly nice, but there are literally hundreds of restaurants in the city with equal or better views. It's somewhat incredible that this location is considered in the Michelin guide, even if it hasn't earned a star. This dining experience genuinely detracted from the Wolfgang Puck brand for me, and it would take real consideration to return to one again.
