Feriye Lokantasi
Istanbul
Отзывы
The ambiance was absolutely lovely, and the waterfront view was amazing. It truly felt like stepping into a whole different world, especially coming from California. The food was also very enjoyable. We had the spicy yogurt and the tomato salad, both of which were superb. I ordered the Chilean sea bass and really enjoyed it; it was light, flavorful, and well prepared. The calamari was okay, but overall the experience was beautiful. The service was amazing as well. The host or manager made sure we were well taken care of and explained everything thoroughly. We weren’t able to get seats right by the water at first, but by the end of the night, they made sure we were seated there, which made the experience even more special. The atmosphere, view, food, and service made the visit very memorable. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a beautiful waterfront dining experience. Oh yeah! The cocktails were delicious
Before visiting Feriye, we had heard many positive things, and it truly lived up to the expectations. From the moment we arrived, the overall atmosphere and Bosphorus setting created a wonderful dining experience. For the main courses, we had the Küşleme and the slow-cooked beef ribs, and both dishes were excellent. The meats were perfectly cooked, tender, flavorful, and very well balanced in terms of taste and presentation. We also tried the Feriye mezze selection, including fava, zucchini blossom dolma, spicy yogurt, and the lentil-based mezze. Every single dish was impressive, but the zucchini blossom dolma was definitely the highlight of the evening and something we would highly recommend. The service team was attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming throughout our visit. The combination of food quality, atmosphere, and service made this more than just a dinner, it felt like a complete dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Istanbul. We will definitely be returning.
Although the place is hard to find and you have to go through some inner courtyards to enter, the food was very tasty and well prepared. It’s worth noting that it isn’t well signposted, so you need to look carefully to find it. They also serve a complimentary item upon seating. The waiter who took our order was impeccable. However, the hostess and the waiter who cleared the table have room for improvement. First, the hostess was not particularly friendly and refused to seat every arriving guest by the seaside—apparently reserving the better tables for “special guests,” which leaves an unpleasant impression on others. Before seating us, she emphasized twice that we would need to order from the dinner menu, which was already our intention. Overall, she made us feel as though we were not important enough for the place. The waiter who cleared the table lifted my cup twice before I had finished my tea. The restaurant truly creates a sense of elegance, and the prices are high. However, precisely because of this, I expect all guests to be treated with sufficient respect.
Super nice and delicious restaurant! Worth the money spent! In a top spot, by the Bosphorus, you can admire the ocean traffic and the seagulls fishing. Great views all around you! The food was tasty and prepared with culinary skills. Drinks were also quite special. Prior reservations are recommended.
