This restaurant which has a beautiful Bosphorus landscape dazzles with its elite service at first glance. recommend that you try the rich wine menu and Californian and Italian wine. There are kebabs, olive oil dishes, rice pudding from the Turkish Cuisine which are added to the menu with a clips, in other words you ca take your foreign guests also. Veal capacious is perfect. But I cannot say the same thing for the chocolate soufflé. The price that you pay changes significantly with the quality of the wine that you shall select. If you live in Istanbul and if you have started to think that the troublesome traffic and overlapping structures are unbearable, having a meal at this place may make you a friend of Istanbul for a period again.

Tike

2. Levent
Hacı Adil Cad.,4.Aralık No 1,t , Kebap Restaurant
(212) 281 88 71

A fireside restaurant in which the most common Adana and Gaziantep meals are served in very luxurious ambiance. Taking a look at the grills is recommended. Classic meals like Adana, Urfa, Ali Nazik, Aubergine Kebab and especially Kebab with pepperoni paste are very good. Turnip juice which is rather close to the original is recommended but I think that the Turnip juice of Adana Asmaaltı is much better. It can be tried as a different (*) flavor which has not been tried before. Unfortunately they do not prepare kidney shish at all the times and the waiter asks the kitchen and says there’s none left. The service lacks a bit, which might be due to heavy demand. A written menu shall be useful. (Ufuk Çağlayan Boğaziçi Ü., Öğretim üyesi).

Harvard Café is one of the best places to have a nice meal and a drink after a hard day. The young age average assures a constantly live and warm ambiance. Harvard Café which is visited by numerous famous people is also the place for the young businessmen. The dishes that are preferred the most are the crepe and salads on the menu. We strongly recommend Harvard Steak, which is the specialty of the Chef. (Canan Töre, Bilkent University, Student, TOMYO).
