Lotiz hookah and lounge was one of the best places we visited in Turkey!…read moreMake sure not to miss this spot. It is a 2 station tram ride away from Hagia Sofia. A 4 min walk towards the lounge, the detonation is on the left corner. There is usually a guy who will ask you if you are a little lost asking if you are there for loris lounge. The lounge is located on the top floor with a folding roof which is a smoking zone (hookah)z They also have a non smoking section on the inside. On talking to the servers he told us that there was a recent complaint by someone that they do not have a non smoking section so they created separations. Well service was excellent. If you talk to the servers enough and go at sunset please please please order the best hookah they have which is made right in front of you and has no water , it is all ice. You will enjoy it for sure. The people are very friendly and the food is good too! Have fun yelpers! Lotiz Istanbul you rock. Oh and there is also a restaurant called lotiz. This is the lotiz lounge where you will get hookah. Apparently the food is good at Lotiz as well ( did not get a chance to try it).

Located on the 17th floor of the Hyatt Regency (hotel opened in January). A group of us wandered…read moreup here at about 7pm to check-out the view. Its gorgeous! My pic does NOT do it justice. Sweeping views of the Marmara Sea & Istanbul. Fantastic breezes, contemporary furniture of couches & a DJ spinning cool tunes; we all were swept away by the feel of this place. Hostess sat our group at a great spot overlooking Sea. They serve Ceviche, Tapas, Small Plates & a few desserts; plus, handcrafted cocktails. We had planned on just stopping by for a drink, but ended up watching the sun set and spending the rest of the evening here (we left around midnight, but they were open until 2am). Cocktails: I started with the Red Lips. This was a delicious treat of vodka, Prosecco, pomegranate? with a whipped egg white froth on top. Yum. (had a few of these) Food: all the items were good, but there wasn't anything I had that is a Must Have. The Yellow Fin & the Empanadas were the standouts for me. Yellow Fin Tail Ceviche Empanadas Grilled Rib Steak w/chimichurri & lime dressing Octopus Lamb Cons? Pricey. Cocktails (around $15) & Tapas were LA prices. Smoking. People smoke everywhere. Service was a bit slow, at times. Husband had ordered his martinis with olives, but they kept bringing them with lemons (he didn't mention it to staff). Closed Sunday nights. This was a great spot to end our visit to Istanbul.

My berry smoothie was excellent and the burger was average. With that said, I wouldn't order their meat platters . if they cannot grill an amazing burger, I wouldn't wanna pay the price for a steak.

Especially when they included a salad with no cooked components and a smoked salmon that I assume was premade due to the length of time needed to smoke salmon. When we asked the waiter, his face made it seem like he either forgot to place our order or didn't expect us to actually want our food within a reasonable hour since everyone besides us was smoking hookah. We just hoped for better than "hamburger helper" quality bolognese. The view didn't necessarily justify the food and service being mid.

We were shopped-out and it was hot. We saw the stocked bar in the restaurant from the street and decided to go in for drinks. The service was outstanding and the house wine was also wonderful. The kids had sodas and we also had some sparkling water. They have good wifi there and it was a slow mid-day, so it was pretty fast. Nice to a cloud picture sync. The restrooms were also clean. The food menu looked great as well even though we didn't get anything.
