Consigliato. Bella la location e piatti tradizionali da provare. Un po’ caro

Buona l’accoglienza e la disponibilità nel servirci. Rapidi ed efficienti. Mi aspettavo un cibo più raffinato visto la nomina sulla guida Michelin. Nel complesso positivo ma nulla di straordinario.

The food was delicious and loved seeing the time periods, historically, when they were served. The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend.

The service is below standard. 1. I ordered a glass of red wine and it never came. 2. During the whole meal, no one came to say a word. No refilling of my water. 3. Main course came five minutes after my salad (1/3 finished). I told the waiter that I was still eating. He said “ok ok”, then moved my salad to the side and put the main course in front of me. They did offer a complimentary coffee or tea without saying the reason. I guess it was probably because they found out they forgot the wine when I asked for bill. I declined the offer.

Vista bellissima. Piatti buoni, non eccezionali. E non sembravano preparati sul momento. Servizio poco attento. Prezzi eccessivi per quanto ricevuto.

Totalmente incoerente con la menzione Michelin 2023. Cibo non espresso difficilmente digeribile e comunque nemmeno buono come ristoranti di categorie inferiori, prezzi del vino offensivi. Non consiglio!

It turned out to be a disappointment. For the money I paid, I would have eaten better at another Turkish restaurant that is also listed in the Michelin guide as Deralyie Restaurant.

Overall, it was good, but nothing extraordinary. Below the expectation in terms of the experience of dinning at a michelin star restaurant. Great service though and friendly staff.

Restaurant up to expectations. The menu offers a good variety, and the service is attentive and friendly. Based on the reviews, I expected a much higher final cost, but it turned out to be reasonable (also thanks to skipping wines and desserts). Recommended for those staying in Sultanahmet.

Location adiacente a Santa Sofia, ambienti molto belli e raffinati, in stile Turco. Servizio attento e cucina davvero eccellente, in grado di sprigionare piacevoli sapori e sensazioni che nei normali ristoranti del luogo non sono percepibili. Bravi!

Karsilama, agirlama ve ugurlama gayet nazik ve profesyoneldi. Lezzet genel olarak guzeldi fakat ayran ile güllaç için maalesef aynı şeyi söyleyemeyeceğim. İkisi de 2. sınıf bir mekan kalitesindeydi.

Ho prenotato questo ristorante per il compleanno del mio fidanzato. Il personale è gentilissimo, la vista sulla moschea davvero stupenda. Il cibo ottimo, ben presentato e di grande qualità. Essendo un’occasione speciale, avevo chiesto una torta per il mio ragazzo. La richiesta è stata soddisfatta con molto entusiasmo! Inoltre, alla fine del pasto, ci hanno regalato due ciondoli. È stata un’esperienza bellissima!

Servis mükemmel, personel çok yardımcı. lezzetler de harika. kavun dolmasını denedim. Özgün ve lezzetli bir yemekti. Eşimin tam olarak yiyemediği kuzu pirzoladan ücret almadılar. Ortamı da sakin ve harika olan bu lokantayı mutlaka deneyin.
