Reviews
Amazing view directly in front of blue mosque on the roof top. Amin and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Food is good and fresh.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Grace Rooftop Restaurant and it was one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the breathtaking rooftop setting. The views are simply stunning, especially being able to see the magnificent Blue Mosque from our table. Watching the city from such a beautiful vantage point created an unforgettable atmosphere and made our dining experience even more special. The food was outstanding from start to finish. Every dish was beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly prepared with great care and attention to detail. The quality of the ingredients and the excellent cooking made every course a pleasure to enjoy. What truly set this restaurant apart, however, was the exceptional customer service. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to ensuring guests had a fantastic experience. A special thank you goes to the manager, Rashad, who went above and beyond to make our day memorable. His kindness, professionalism, and personal attention made us feel incredibly valued and well looked after. It is rare to encounter such genuine hospitality, and Rashad's efforts made a lasting impression on us. Grace Rooftop Restaurant offers the perfect combination of incredible food, spectacular views, and first-class service. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul and looking for a memorable dining experience. We will definitely return on our next visit.
Enes is a fantastic talent who made our meal an experience from start to finish. Excellent food, even better service. This is a must visit while in Istanbul!
A really nice place to have something to eat. Classy venue above the Princess Diana hotel (which looks noooice by the way). Take the lift to the 6th floor terrace and boom! Food and drink time. The food and drink was decent. We only had salads and drinks as we ate not long before and only wanted to see what the views were like. I’m gonna be honest and only wanted to go here after the social media reviews aaaaaaaand although the place is really nice and the food and service is spot on, the view, although pretty decent, was not as good as what I was expecting! BUT please do not let my views put you off! It’s definitely worth visiting! 🎯💯
