"This trendy rooftop restaurant draws a local and international crowd, who come here to see and be seen. However, it is the view over the Golden Horn and the coming and going of the boats on the Bosphorus that really steal the show. Sitting on the terrace with a cocktail in your hand is a magical experience, especially if you arrive just before sunset. The sight of the sun going down and the countless lights coming on across the city is unforgettable. When it comes to the cooking, Mürver is a hip spot in which to savor dishes prepared over the open fire." - MICHELIN Guide

"Take the lift to the top floor of the Novotel Istanbul Bosphorus and discover the world of Mürver. You can start with an aperitif in the hip cocktail bar, then soak up the romantic atmosphere of the restaurant. Finally, take in the breathtaking views of the metropolis from the fabulous terrace. An open fire is the centrepiece of the kitchen, where you can also see meat and fish drying. Smoky and barbecue notes form the basis of captivating creations featuring regional produce and original combinations. The dishes are spicy, bold and fiery. Think grilled squid rings with green beans and a subtly spicy muhammara sauce, or 28-day aged ribeye. This buzzing establishment is the place to be!" - Michelin Inspector


"Let Mürver's fire be your guide on the Route and shape your unique perception of this City." - MICHELIN Guide

"Under executive chef Mevlüt Özkaya, the kitchen takes an ingredient‑oriented approach, presenting dishes that spotlight the main ingredient without damaging its DNA. Menus rely on local, in‑season products, with research and scouting across Anatolia informing what appears on the plate, as memories from Özkaya’s youth are translated into his cuisine and he implements the equivalents of world trends in our geography. Inspiration ranges from markets to travel and social media, but the real passion here is turning a newly discovered ingredient into a sustainable menu item." - MICHELIN Guide
