Borsa Restaurant

This restaurant might just be the best fine dining experience in Istanbul. Everything from the taste of the food to the waiters is perfect. The warm bread and butter with cheese served before the meal are excellent. For starters, I tried the keşkek, pilaki, and leaf liver. The keşkek has a more neutral flavor but is worth trying. The pilaki is oniony and flavorful. The leaf liver is thinly sliced but a bit dry. The main course, lamb tandoori, was truly great. The outer part of the meat was perfectly caramelized and the inside was tender. The rice served alongside was a bit dry, but it had a nice sweet and spicy flavor. The chocolate soufflé we had for dessert was also successful. The politeness of the waitstaff is really good. This place is definitely worth visiting, not just for its beautiful view and historic building, but also for its delicious food and service.

Great food and great service makes it a fantastic venue for dinner. Arrive for sunset to make the most of the unique view over looking the Bosphorus. During the summer most likely will be a wedding happening so sit back and gate crash a wedding via proxy. Good choice of wine, beers and big selection of foods for all tastes.

Everything was 10+ , from service and food, to the kindness of the personnel and one of the best views in Istanbul. Would be lucky to come here again !

This is one of the best restaurants to take your foreign friends out for a descent dinner and for the "amazing" view of Bosphorus in the terrace. Borsa is owned by Dream group so the quality of food is very good. I haven’t noticed anything special on the menu, and I don’t really have a favorite food there. But everyone can find something good quality to eat. The staff and the service is ok. There is a valet service. That’s a plus for me.

This location is also very much preferred for wedding parties, there might be some live music to accompany you while you dine. If you are not keen on loud music, ask to be seated towards the entrance of the terrace.

During the winter, I prefer this place for lunch. The inner spaces are very nicely decorated and lunch times are less crowded and more private.

I enjoyed the experience of having early dinner. They are specialized in meat order. Cooking milk feed lamb high quality delicious food. The view overlooking the Bosporus was outstanding. Its located in the terrace of Adela sultana historical palace

Amazing location, great staff and really great food. The views from the terrace are spectacular. The sea food is a great choice here. Overall great place.

Best restaurant and best seaview and cityview n Istanbul, build in a fantastic historic villa including also a museum

Nice, fancy place. High prices but wonderful ambiance. Note that the best views are from the patio, which is closed during the winter.

The scenery is magnificent.

Actually this place was Osman palace so I felt like I'm in the Osman empire
Not to mention about food, this Bosphorus is one of the one view in Istanbul

Friendly and respectful behaviour of staff, great view

It's a must.. Very nice view.. Very pleasant staff.. Excellent food

Incredible view, you have to see it yourself, if not for the food, just for the view. After you see the view, whatever you eat will be extremely tasty. This does not mean the food was bad. The food was excellent, try something called “katmerli “ (or something like that) for dessert, it is as good as the view.

Istanbul is famous with good restaurants, but this one is spectacular. The restaurant inside Adile Sultan Sarayi Palace, big Palace in great location on Posphore. Amazing food, gorgeous view and very good service. Definitely top! Well done to the chef.

Great palace and restaurant 😍

Borsa in Kandilli offers one of the best restaurant experiences in Istanbul. If you’re lucky to visit Borsa on a beautiful day, you’ll be eating delicious dishes from the Turkish kitchen, prepared and served expertly in a historic building, the former girls high school, which is like a palace, overlooking the European side of the city across the Bosporus. Incredibly, the prices are quite reasonable.

Highly recommend!

Amazing food. Amazing views. Better with a reservation.

Best view for a restaurant in Istanbul! Food is excellent.

Great view, nice food, but expensive
