    Excellent place the view is amazing and it located at the last floor of the intercontinental hotel. The food was very good and price point it can be expensive for some and ok for others. The value is overall for me, it worth the price considering all the great point of this restaurant. I recommend it without any doubt. 5 stars place.

    Intercontinental Restaurant in Istanbul is a true culinary destination that deserves a 10/10 rating. With an impressive blend of international cuisine and top-notch sushi, this restaurant provides an extraordinary gastronomic experience. The menu is diverse and innovative with a clear emphasis on the quality and freshness of ingredients. The sushi is superb, offering a wide range of traditional and creative options. Everything is impeccably prepared, presented, and served, making each bite a true delicacy. The rest of the international cuisine is equally impressive, with dishes spanning from Mediterranean to Asian cuisines. Each dish is carefully prepared and exudes authentic flavors. The service is exceptional - the staff is courteous, attentive, and professional, providing guests with a sense of luxury and care. The ambiance of the restaurant is elegant, with a beautiful view of the Bosphorus, further enhancing the overall experience. In summary, the Intercontinental Restaurant is a place where top-notch cuisine, exceptional service, and beautiful ambiance perfectly merge.

    We had very high expectations of this place. The view is fantastic, but ... the food was at least average for a place like this, with prices like this.... There is an extra 10% charge in the total amount of the bill, which is service charge, that was an outrageous amount, for a below average service! This Intercontinental rooftop has nothing to do with other 5* hotels' rooftops, except for the magnificent 180 degrees view.
