I can't express enough how happy we're to have this meal for our last night in Istanbul. It was…read morerecommended by one of the locals. The place was small yet very charming. They have a lower area and alfresco seating. We had their Antakya Kebap Dürüm, Beğendili Bonfile Şiş Dürüm, and 4 kinds of appetizers. We savor every bite and it was really good. Note this place could have a wait time, if you have a big group I recommend try to reserve.

I enjoyed every moment of it and if I'm ever back in turkey, I will go back. My only downside was the fact that the restaurant allowed stray cats to come inside and the cats will try to steal your food or either jump on the seat to sit next to you if you're not a cat person just keep your head on a swivel. Try everything on the menu you won't regret it.

I don't drink Turkish coffee and can't have much caffeine, but I tried an iced cappucino anyway, and it was without a doubt the best cappucino I've had in Istanbul. That said, I don't recommend ordering basic coffee drinks - try something off of the Turkish coffee menu! The texture and flavors are truly something else!

Any fish restaurant on the Bosphorus does require a level of acquiantance and mastery to get the best value for your buck. Istanbul is an expensive city and increasingly so. With fish restaurants, sky is the limit when it comes to the check. That is not the case with Set, even with the notoriously expensive liquor, i.e. raki prices in Turkey. I trust and recommend.
