Very kind and considerate staff, lovely place and environment. We ordered grilled sea bass, oysters and seafood salad. Was served watermelon, baklava, apple and classic Turkish tea after everything. Would recommend
Great place with excellent service and delicious food. We had shish kebab and grilled sea bass. The meat was very tender, and the fish was fresh and juicy. I also want to mention the manager, Meyles. He was very friendly and welcoming, and the service was excellent. By the way, they also have good hookahs. They last a long time and there are many flavors to choose from. The place is quiet, peaceful, and very cozy. It’s a great place to spend an evening and enjoy one of the main pedestrian streets in the city.
I love this place! Dogan was super friendly and gave us the best service for our experience in Istanbul. Food was super delicious as well. Had the best kunefe.
I had a fantastic experience at ŞIVA OYSTER FİSH RESTAURANT in Sultanahmet. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious. The atmosphere was warm, lively, and very welcoming. What really made the visit special was the hospitality of the staff — they were friendly, attentive, and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The presentation of the food was beautiful, portions were generous, and the complimentary Turkish tea and baklava dessert were a lovely touch.
Amazing food and services. Mr Galip is very helpful. The doner kebab, iskender kebab and kofte are very good. Definitely will return
