Although the falafel patties were not as hot as I like them, they were still amazing. I'm not a fan of tabbouleh salad, so I can't really give an opinion on whether it was good. Given the quality of everything else, I'm guessing it was good. I did eat some of it. The people serving were very kind.

There weren't many reviews of this place when I went, but I was craving some Lebanese food so I…read moretook a chance and I was not disappointed! It was located in a nice area of Istanbul that was less crowded compared to where we were staying (which was by the blue mosque). First off, I was impressed with the huge selection in the menu! There's a general menu, a vegetarian menu and a vegan menu . I got the fattoush salad and shish barak and my husband got the chicken wrap with special sauce. We both really enjoyed our meals and one of the better meals we've had while at Istanbul!

To begin with, the view is grand especially on a summer night, reaching from one bridge to the other, stretching out over a hill overlooking the Bosphorus. It is a fancy restaurant and therefore also pricy, but if you want to spoil yourself: this is the place to do it! When you have dinner here, you will feel VIP, because the staff is very friendly and attentive which makes you feel very happy. Its bar is very good as well with many famous local DJ's playing music. It is especially very romantic during full-moon, with the moonlight shining down. The food is amazing, including its normal Menu and the Sushi Menu as well. Some of the world's greatest Sushi Chefs have been hosted at the Restaurant to display their expertise. The menu also displays a large array of world class wines! Most of the staff also speaks English and is very very attentive, which means that you never wait too long for your food to arrive or for someone to be around when you want something... This is a VERY big bonus, as in such large Restaurants usually sometimes you may drown in the mass if the waiters are not a) a lot and b) pay attention. Bingo! There is a reason the Restaurant has hosted many celebrities from Jennifer Lopez to Paris Hilton and many many more...

When I arrived there was only one other customer inside. The restaurant decor was cute and I very comfortable. The staff were friendly and welcoming. This spot was a bit pricey just like most of the restaurants in this touristy area. I had certain Turkish entrees i wanted to try during my vacation. I ordered the Iskender kebab which is beef and pita bread covered with tomato sauce with yogurt on the side. I ordered a side salad to go with it. The dish was very delicious as you can tell in one of my pics. I chatted with some of the staff about life in Istanbul. I was offered some complimentary pomegranate tea before I left and it hit the spot. This is definitely a place to check out when you're in the area.

I had some of THEE BEST chicken kebab I've ever had in this country here. The beef kebab was also tender and flavorful. You cannot go wrong with any of these! The service was quick and prompt, and the servers were great at making recommendations. I came here in the winter so we sat indoors which felt a bit cramped however, there is also outdoor seating during the nicer weather months. If I'm ever back here in Istanbul, I would definitely come back. And if you're reading this, you NEED to try the Old Ottoman!
