    one of the best open air bars and view over the bosporus.. sushi is eatable but starters are not that good.. especially good atmosphere, food average

    By far the best bar, best cocktails best service and best view in Istanbul. If you are going out to be seen and dont really mind drinking a classy cocktail, go to Lucca .

    Banyan has a fully stocked bar and an excellent cocktail menu offering all the classic and some inventive creations of their own, which makes it a great place to meet up with friends after work.

    One of the best view of the Bosphorus bridge along with the old Ortakoy mosque. Great service with good cocktail options. Why even think of snobbish Angelic?

    Everything I tasted was simply crazy delicious, especially the beef with orange sauce. The starter sauce they bring with the bread was a festival for my tongue. Amazing view, great for dates.

    Best view in Ortakoy. Lovely during summer. I love thai and food is not too bad. Staff takes good care of you. Worth a visit if you're in Istanbul- I like it here.

    The view was amazing. The service and food were also great if you like far east cuisine with small portions but good quality. A little expensive but justified by the location and quality.

    Peppersteak, noodle ve salata vasat, levrek sashimi, dana kupler ve kaburga cok lezzetli!/I'd say stay away from the peppersteak, noodle and salad, but I'd definitely suggest seabass sashimi and veil!

    Great view, great sushi, rest of the food just decent. Btw 53 tl for a curry is just absurd. Will defo come back for loads of sushi (caterpillar is king!) and herbal tea though. A 4/5.

    Good Asian fusion and modern elegance at this new summer venue of the Niflantafl› Banyan. Highlights from a seasonal menu: searingly hot Tom Yam soup, sea bass in banana leaves, pumpkin cheesecake

    If you go upstairs you'll find beautiful views without all the hype and inflated prices. Have the rice filled oysters in the street (2 for 1 lira) so yummy!

    The view is really nice, but nothing else is worth the money. If you've ever eaten good food in North America, you won't like the food at this place.
