    (Translated by Google) The thing we remember most from what we ate was definitely the octopus in ash. The best octopus in Istanbul. Anyone who gets sour when eating at other restaurants should definitely try it here. duck topik and stone oven pear were presentations that required creativity. The smoked sea bream was also quite delicious. Apart from these, the lamb shoulder in the main course was nice, but the portion was small, the granola was fresh and more satisfying. In our opinion, Heybeli was the best in cocktails. The explanations given while the food was being served were pleasant, and it is obvious that the waiters are very well-educated. I hope they get the Michelin star they deserve as soon as possible.

    Yediklerimizden en aklımızda kalan şey kesinlikle külde ahtapottu. İstanbul’un en iyi ahtapotu . Diğer restoranlarda yerken yüzü ekşiyen birisi kesinlikle burada denemeli . ördek topik ve taş fırından armut yaratıcılık isteyen sunumlardı. Füme çupra da epey lezzetliydi . Bunların dışında ana yemekteki kuzu sırtı güzeldi ama porsiyonu küçüktü, granyöz tazeydi ve daha doyurucuydu. Kokteyllerde de heybeli bizce en iyisiydi . Yemekler servis edilirken yapılan anlatımlar hoştu garsonlar gayet eğitimliler belli oluyor . Umarım en kısa sürede hakettikleri michelin yıldızı gelir

    (Translated by Google) It has a magnificent view and location and a very nice ambience. The only disadvantage is that although it is on the upper floor of the hotel, when you enter the restaurant you see that it has nothing to do with the hotel. All the menus and dishes prepared by Chef Yılmaz are beautiful and delicious. It appeals to both the eye and the palate. It is a place that I can recommend to everyone and will definitely come again.

    Muhteşem bir manzara ve lokasyonda ve gayet hoş bir ambiansa sahip. Tek dezavantajı otelin üst katı olmasına rağmen restauranta girdiğinizde otelle hiç alakası olmadığını görüyorsunuz. Yılmaz Şefin elinden çıkan menü ve yemeklerin hepsi birbirinden güzel ve lezzetli. Hem göze hem damağa hitap ediyor. Her kese tavsiye edebileceğim ve tekrar mutlaka geleceğim bir yer.
