Thank you for a fantastic evening at Matbah. That’s one of the top restaurants in Istanbul. During our 4 day stay in Istanbul we have dined at 2 restaurants, one was in Bosphorus called Sunset, the other one was Matbah in Sultanahmet. Both were fabulous, we have tasted delicious examples of Turkish cuisine, top quality service and perfect atmosphere. I will honestly recommend Palace to all my friends.

Without doubt Matbah offer a vibrant ambiance within the stylish Ottoman palace cuisine as described on the web site. We could not expect such delicious meals matching & suiting our local taste. The chef was a great person who shared his experiences and advices with us, we’ll make use of them, that’s for sure. Thanks for an unforgettable evening in the heart of historical Istanbul.

Palace is a perfect restaurant to experience the traditional Turkish food. The ambiance is unique, you feel yourself like in a secret garden in the centre of the old city decorated richly and friendly. That’s more than a restaurant, a place where you can relax, enjoy the mystic atmosphere of Istanbul and chat with your friends for hours. We are looking forward to dining at Matbah, unfortunately that won’t be earlier than next year.

I’m not used in writing reviews, but I could not keep myself from doing so this time. I’m so impressed with Matbah Restaurant that it will be hard for me to explain my thoughts. The ambiance is unusual, the atmosphere is fantastic, the music is relaxing, the service is professional and the meals & wine are beyond imagination.  What would I expect more ? I do recommend Matbah to every visitor in Istanbul. You should not leave this city without tasting the great Ottoman food served in Palace and enjoy the ambiance supported with historical surroundings.

Good restaurant in a good location. In the centre of the old city, right beside the famous Hagia Sophia Museum and the historical handicraft centre built in the 16^th century. Good service, good food (Ottoman style traditional cuisine), good wine and good atmosphere. Thanks for everything ! We have enjoyed a memorable evening which we’ll never forget !
