I really liked the place. Great place, good and delicious menu. A small selection, but very tasty craft beer. Great prices. We visited this place on the first day of the trip and it turned out to be in the top of the best in my personal opinion. I definitely recommend it.

A pleasant place with good music. We came to drink cocktails in the evening. Located on the 2nd floor with stunning views of the Bosphorus. A good and high-quality selection of drinks, there are both traditional cocktails and original ones. All cocktails cost 380 lire. Chicken wings and pizza were taken from the food, the food was not very impressive. It should also be borne in mind that the kitchen closes an hour earlier than the establishment.

The first negative was the food: the burger was incredibly greasy, and you could squeeze the fat off the bread. It's not worth the money. Pizza is not wow, it's a three. The second disadvantage of the service: the sauces were given to the burger only after a reminder. There are two paper napkins, that is, one for each. Wet wipes were not offered at all. The third disadvantage: a diner at the price of a super restaurant. The fourth disadvantage: the 10% service fee was included in the bill (there were two of us), which is written in small print at the bottom of the menu, well, that is ... if you don't know English and you haven't read it carefully, then these are your (my) problems. It's a small thing, but it spoils the impression.

The portions are huge, generally delicious, but this is not typical Turkish cuisine (if you're looking for one). Not a bad choice of beer🙃 In December, we had dinner on the outdoor terrace - they heat the street well enough🙂 The staff works smartly

When I went in 2022, there was a cool place, rarely where there is craft beer in Istanbul and here it is. But this year we arrived and were stunned by the prices and the quality of the food. But craft beer is not bad :)

We sat for 15 minutes and did not wait for the waiter. Zero attention to the guests. A tank of beer 0.33 from 215 lira - yes, they have a good choice, but the price is not small, as in a hotel bar. They left without waiting for the order to be accepted.

I liked the place! Beer can be ordered on trial to choose the right variety for yourself! The snacks were quite tasty! Potatoes are surprisingly good (as Belarus tells you)! The views around are wonderful…

Excellent craft beer, the selection is not very large, but everything is fresh, there are interesting flavors. Excellent cuisine, beautiful view of the Bosphorus, but there are queues at the entrance.
