Arch Bistro

Gorgeous historical restaurant with amazing food. We ate here twice in April 2023 when we visited Istanbul’s d were thrilled to return this year. You won’t be disappointed. Meze platter with 5 or 10 choices was outstanding, sea bass perfectly cooked with delicious sides. A real special treat is the traditional Amphora Fire Pot dish offered in a clay pot that is broken at your table-so yummy.

I would’ve given a 10 star rating if I could have. The ambience, the decor, the staff and above all the food in Arch Bistro was exceptional. I was with meat eaters who had fabulous food and as a vegan I was catered for with equally outstanding meals. I would highly recommend this small but wonderful Bistro to anyone.

Beautiful quirky venue, great food and special service will return

Amazing .. will be back atmosphere food and service all top class

An amazing gem in Sultanahmet. Done wine pairings around the world and this classifies as one of the best. There is an exceptional red on the tasting menu well worth every penny.

Très bon restaurant avec des plats généreux et personnel fort sympathique. Dispose de chaise haute pour bébé.

It was okay nothing extremely special. It did its job to be honest expected a little bit better than it was but overall it was probably about average.

The place is super cute. A pleasant break from all the touristy restaurants that look alike. It’s an old boathouse converted into restaurant. Food is also slightly different. However, they did remind us a bit of restaurants in nyc where they wouldn’t allow us to sit at a table for 3 no matter what, not very European. Asked for a review, mentioned a tip etc food was ok, nothing mind blowing.

Tolles Essen, schönes Ambiente und perfekter Service. Wir waren mehrmals dort.

An absolute gem. Built in a repurposed boat hangar, this restaurant offers an unparalled dining experience.

Such a lovely evening. We were looked after very well by our host, who was friendly and very well-informed about the food and wine we chose. The atmosphere was creative, informal and warm, and we had a lovely evening, savouring beautiful food. Every dish was tasty and well seasoned, and the wine complemented it very well. We will be returning to enjoy it again before we leave Istanbul and very much look forward to it. We even made friends with a beautiful cat, who came to say hello. Thoroughly recommended on all counts.

Food and service were both outstanding. Patient explanation of the dishes helped to make choosing easier. Lovely decor, and excellent house wine contributed to a memorable last night dinner in Istanbul.

Great in general. Just a bit pricey for Turkey, but had a lot of vegetarian and vegan options.

İş için gelmiştim, internetde tesadüfen karşılaştığım bu yeri o kadar beğendim ki, her halde her geldiğimde mutlaka uğrayacağım. Otantik tarihi kendinde yansıtan ve çok nezih bir aurası vardı. Yönetici de çok samimiydi, baya muhabbet etdik. Her şey için teşekkürümü buradan yapmak istedim!

I went to there with my wife İt was amazing especially Mr. Orhan and all staff the dishes was perfect . In Turkey it will be my first destination anymore Thank you so much for everything

Wir waren mit unseren 2 Kindern da! Wir kommen wieder! Sehr freundliche Gastgeber, traumhafte Location und ein sehr gutes Essen! Danke für diesen tollen Abend! Schöne Grüße aus Österreich Familie Caluk
