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.

I wanted to give their Burgers a try before I venture into their steaks. I ordered a sausage and…read morethe Premium Burger, both were so underwhelming. Even the Fries was cold and not fresh. In the beginning I was served a dish of cold cuts with cheese which I didn't order, I thought it might've been a compliment from the restaurant, but I ended up billed for it. Don't know if this was some kind of misunderstanding or an intentional rip off. Anyway, if I ever go, I will try sticking to their steaks.

Must be Ciara you should try this this is the best in the west and the east There is nothing like itread more

After shopping for hours around the bazaar, my boyfriend and I were ready to get off our feet and…read morehave some dinner. We saw Hamdi Kofte and decided to go in. We were greeted by a gentleman who recommended that we go upstairs. He said that we'd get a better view of the area as we dined. We sat down and decided on what we wanted to eat. I went with kofte and meatballs, with veggies and rice. The meat was tender and flavourful in both the kofte and meatballs. A student intern that I worked with years ago recommended that I get the meatballs. I am so glad that I did. It was excellent Turkish food. If you are in the area and want to take photos of the beautiful skyline along with eating delicious food, come here. (110)

Excellent service! Excellent food! One of the shop owners inside the Spice Bazaar recommended Hamdi…read moreto my boyfriend and I and I had heard about before, so this reinforced to me that it was a restaurant we should try! Then, later on we took a guided tour and our guide recommended Hamdi as well, so it's known for being a good place (even if there are tourists). We went for two kebabs: the pistachio kebab for me and the yogurt kebab for the boyfriend. We also tried the fried meatball and the "Turkish pizza." The meatball was delicious, but the pizza was skippable for me. The yogurt kebab was amazingly tasty. The combination of tangy yogurt with warm meat is usually a success and this was a great embodiment. My pistachio kebab was interesting, but I didn't love it. It was beautiful because of the bright green pistachios, but I found it to be a bit dry. Although, it's worth a try since it's a more unique offering. Service was friendly and spoke English. Also, they have great views of the Bosphorus from the top floor, or it's always nice to dine outside.

My family had lamb kebabs, meze platter and I had grilled fish. Everything we had was delicious. We enjoyed dipping our warm pita bread with the different things on the meze platter---baba ganoush, hummus, yogurt, etc. The fish was fresh and good with a sprinkling of lemon. We sat outdoors which was perfect---cool and great for people watching. Service is quick, friendly and engaging. There's like mini fire shows going on at other tables.
