Lacivert Restaurant

The location is excellent and the atmosphere is truly wonderful. The service was exceptional—friendly, attentive, and professional. However, I was disappointed with the food. The fish soup didn’t taste good, and the calamari was undercooked. Considering the great setting and service, the quality of the food did not match the restaurant’s standards. I hope they improve the dishes, because everything else was perfect

Perfect seafood restaurant was advised for us by chat gpt. Nice atmosphere wonderful service and delicious food. We tried around 5-6 different dishes and all of them were perfect

An incredible experience from start to finish. The evening began with a magical touch: the restaurant sent a boat to collect us, turning the journey itself into part of the adventure. Crossing the Bosphorus felt unforgettable, with jaw‑dropping views of the bridge, Istanbul’s skyline, and the lively activity on the water. Upon arrival, the atmosphere was matched by impeccable service. The staff demonstrated excellent knowledge and attentiveness, while the food presentation was superb — every dish crafted with care and bursting with quality. The wide selection of wines and cocktails added another layer of indulgence. This is not just dining; it’s an experience that lingers. I cannot wait to return and relive it all over again.

Great food, great atmosphere and great service. A perfect restaurant for a date on a warm istanbul night. The restaurant has an own boat that picks you up from the european side and takes you directly to the restaurant. Looking forward to dining here again.

In Istanbul on a business trip, came here with a moderate sized group. Food and service was amazing, felt like I was on a Greek island no disparagement to Istanbul , which is cool in its own right. They can easily accommodate food allergies like gluten free , and many others. Highly highly recommend.

The food itself was really good, but it is very expensive, and the overall experience simply did not justify the cost. To make matters worse, they tacked on extra charges at the end that were completely unannounced and unexplained. The service was also a major letdown. The waiters were completely disorganized and inattentive. My mother ordered a shrimp dish for her main course, but they brought it out with the appetizers instead. As a result, she ended up eating entirely on her own well before the rest of our main courses ever arrived. Between the poor service and the hidden fees, I won't be returning.

It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed almost every platter put on the table. The food was great and the servers were wonderful. We ordered more than six starters and all tasted impeccable. Loved the calamari and aubergine. My favorite was the squash blossom stuffed. The main fish dish was so soft with the aubergine sauce. Then you can never go wrong with chocolate ice cream. If the food wasn’t convincing enough, the view is all you’d need to see in Istanbul. I’ve been to Istanbul multiple times and this has been one of my top favorites so far. Thank you for the experience!

If you have a chance to go the this restaurant you must go . By car from Asian side and if on European side they will pick you up by boat from Rumeli Hısarı. The views and service were spectacular. Really enjoyed the food especially the fish and mussels. The calamari was perfect and very lightly battered . Only thing I did not enjoy was the grilled octopus , not a fan of the soy sauce marinade. Strongly recommend.

Hello, four of us went on December 1, 2025, and frankly, we weren't satisfied. We ordered 2 kilos of sea bass, and we were told the price was 4,000 TL per kilogram, but when the bill arrived, it was 4,600 TL. They said the fish was 4 kilograms and 200 grams, but I didn't request it. Then, they charged us a cover charge for four people, but I guess they don't know what cover charge is because we only received a single cover charge. :) The prices are expensive, but that's not the problem. We felt deceived.

The food and service at this restaurant are excellent, but the location on the Bosphorus is outstanding. Many people arrive by yacht, and the restaurant has a shuttle to and from the European side. We enjoyed it so much that we went twice during our 3 week visit to Istanbul. My wife enjoyed the fish a commented that it was very fresh. I'm not much of a fish eater, but I do love shrimp and calamari here. They do have a couple of meat options for me. I highly recommend this place
