Spent 100 tl on a meal that we enjoyed half less than a meal I paid half as much for. Do the math. Spend your money elsewhere. The lamb plate was one strip of meat. One underseasoned strip of meat. The sampler appetizer was just ok. The bread was warm and soft but I was at a restaurant not a bakery so that was besides the point. Maybe our spectacular lunch at Kofteci Arnavut was impossible to follow however I believe under any circumstance Faros Kebap is far too overrated.

During a dinner at Faros restaurant near Sultan Ahmed in Istanbul Turkey. Great time and great food

Great restaurant with quality food and service. We eat at Faros restaurants every time we visit Istanbul and every time we enjoy the food, the drinks and the atmosphere. We will go back again and we recommend it.

This place offers ok kebabs and typical mezze. I found the food to be a bit average and in a non very authentic place that i did not like so much. The nice thing is that you have a terrace. So the quality of food is ok but average and i really did not have any surprise or particularly tasty food here. But you can still have an ok kebab if you are in the area (but prices are not particularly low though).

I like this restaurant; initially I found it on Yelp and now I come here every often Recommend this is to you!!

Pistachio kebab and mince meat pide
Muneeza S.

Loved the food. Had pistachio kebab and mince meat pide. Service was super fast and the staff extremely friendly. The vibe is easy and causal. Definitely will come again.

The food was fantastic! You can't go wrong with the meat board and cheese pides. I recommend sitting outside by the patio

Vegetable pide
Porter W.

This place is really good! The street seating is lovely, and the menu has a nice range of options. We had the starter plate, and the vegetable pide, and both are excellent. The server was very sharp and spoke excellent English.

Hallumi Salad
Meghan B.

Staff was very friendly, especially Unal! We had a great meal here, especially great for vegetarians. Really like the hallumi salad, the lentil soup and cacik! Bread is made fresh, you can watch while you're eating. A great find as most restaurants so close to a hotel area wouldn't be that great.

Best Kababs and Turkish Pizza, great taste and very good service. Don't forget to order the Katmer for dessert

Beş Bıçak is a venue that it make query its name before visiting the venue. It reminds the cote of…read morearms of old times and asking yourself " Do they use five different knives when they prepare the meats? ". None of them is the right answer. Beş Bıçak Steakhosue is a meart heaven founded by 5 tough young men. The venue is located very far from us and center of Istanbul. When we asked the reason of this they told us there are not any venue in this region with a right taste and quality and that region needs a qualified venue. They have preferred to become the biggest in a small area instead of becoming a small option in a big region. The venue has been designed exactly as steakhouse concept. The inside area was very chic. They have a wooden bull head work with tide effect on the ceiling which we have not seen like that before. Dry aged meats were demonstrating in a nice fridge. Grill section was in a visible area but they do not bother you in sitting area. You can easily watch the how they cook the meats. We tried a lot of kinds as small portions on the evening of we went. Starters and warm starters; Zahter salad: It was a salad kind that we have never met in any steakhouse before. Its taste was balanced nicely. It was successful and very matching with the meats. We completly finished the salad plates. Smoked beef with cheddar sauce: They are preparing in a hot pot in front of you. Thanks to the taste of cheddar cheese we cleaned up our plates. They should decrease only the level of salt. B&B sausage with halloumi: The sausage prepared by themselves was delicious. Grilled oyster mushroom: It is a common taste for many steakhouses. They cooked it in a juicy and tasty way in here. It was the best one among the we have eaten before. As main course; Lokum: It was very soft like its name. We finished it in a short time. B&B Beef Special: They were the meats like döner cooked very shortly in the grill. Thin cut meat lovers will definetly love it. Dry aged entrecote: It was the most successful meat kind among serving ones. Its consistency and fattiness was superb. It should become the first choice. B&B Lamb Special: Grilled back meat of lamb are slicing and braising with fat in hot casserole. We loved the presentation and the taste as lamb lovers. Lamb Shoulder Tandoori: #tandooriislife. Its taste and consistency were perfect. We totally cleaned up it. You must watch the moment of extracting the bones from meat. B&B Burger: Its fattiness, taste of the meat, made from minced meat without sinewy, its breas and its sides. It was a wonderful burger with its everything. We ate local pistachio flaky pastry with icecream as dessert. Its taste was successful but it should be harder. It was softened a bit because of icecream. If they serve the icecream in a seperate cup it would be better. Service was successful, prices were affordable, ambiance was nice and also taste was good. If its location is appropriate for you there is no reason not to visit here. Do not miss their signature products starting with B&B.

Satisfyingly delicious, great service, expert who really know how to cook a perfect steak!! Worth a…read morevisit and you'll love it, def will come back again and try more fantastic food!!

The food was excellent, and his recommendation of the gold tomahawk was a one-of-a-kind experience. Can't wait till they open the one in Mexico City very soon.

The three stars I attribute to this restaurant solely derive from that. The service was great -- the waiters leaned into the dramatics of cooking, cutting, and presenting the food. While there's both indoor and outdoor seating, for a fancier dining experience, the interior is better. The two stars I deduct come down to the quality and price point of what we ordered. As I mentioned prior, the visual appeal of our orders were certainly there. However, the quality was not. Considering the hype and high-end feel to this steakhouse, the food seemed to taste in strike contrast. As we were at a steakhouse, I of course had to go for the steak and was unfortunately disappointed. The meat sushi was okay. And while the performance of cutting and presenting the baklava was nice, the taste itself was not anything special in comparison to other baklava serving spots readily available throughout the city. Considering such, we were paying what I felt was a disproportionate amount to the quality we consumed. It seems that the price point of the dishes here reflect more of the experience tied to salt bae and the dramatics than the actual quality of the food. And that's okay! I honestly expected that, but hoped for more. But at the end of the night, we were certainly not upset but glad we could experience this the one time we did. If you're looking for a memorable experience, this is your spot. If you're purely looking for a quality steakhouse...look elsewhere!

Luckily, all the usuals could be found with the exception of my fave, the ribeye. We ordered the porterhouse, filet mignon with sauce and lamb chops. To accompany, we ordered green salad and a.nice bottle of cabernet sauvignon. Salad was flavorful with pomegranate and corn and light oil dressing. Shortly before the salad we were bought shot glasses of what I believe was a peppery beef broth that whet our appetites! After salad we enjoyed a complimentary beef appetizer. We didn't know what ot was, but it was delicious! The porterhouse was served "Turkish style" which means it was pre-cut and served with plenty of au jus. I enjoyed the seasoning but would.prefer to cuty.own steak. The filet was served with garlic fries and a curry flavored sauce. The fries were awesome, but none too impressed with the filet, which was also precut, although the sauce was flavorful. The lamb chops were fantastic. For dessert, we order a candied zucchini dish and didn't know what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised. We also received a complimentary chocolate mousse that was really good. Service was more than adequate. We even spotted Gurkan Sef who was kind enough to take a picture with the girls.
