You need to experience this restaurant for yourself as we did. We wanted to go to the Asian side and hopped on a ferry for what we thought was the central part of this side. It is less crowded than the locations around the Blue Mosque. The Ferry is a great way to get around. We stayed too long because it was amazing and took a cab home, reasonable by US standers, but not as inexpensive as the ferry. One of our party of 8 used yelp and she saw Delmare after reading the reviews we walked to the location. Located in an exclusive area on the Asian side of Istanbul. They have large windows that opened, with an unobstructed view of the water. Breath taking view and the ambulance was romantic and classy. They brought the starters out on a large wooden looking tray with about 30 beautiful starters so you could see and ask questions. Stunning. The fish main was plenty for two, or could have family style and share all of the dishes. We used chat GBT to translate the whole menu. I totally recommend sharing dishes with your party. They had a starter of fish taco, which I loved, and a white fish, lots of fish! I believe they also had an Italian restaurant there as well. Enjoy!

For starters, I recommend the restaurant special of fish in white / Alfredo's type sauce (it's heavy so make sure you're hungry)! I also recommend the shrimp casserole (karides guveç), and the garden salad. For main course I would recommend sharing a grilled sea bass. Save room for dessert, they have homemade baklava and ask for kaymak or ice cream with it! Heavenly!! We were 5 people and ordered a ton of food, including wine, our bill came to $180 total. This meal would easily cost at least $300 in the US. Well worth it!

Here the products are of the freshest quality; the atmosphere is subdued.

Fantastic view and is a good place to enjoy traditional "Raki" with "mezze". The seafood was fresh and tasty.
