Şans Restaurant

Amazing place and food. Only wish the service and hospitality was also Michelin standard. Once I arrived and ordered the food I had to ask twice for drinks menu. The place closes at 23:30 but at 22:00 they were already cleaning up all tables and made us very uncomfortable like pressuring us to leave. I feel like for this kind of place and price the experience should be over the top. If you need your employees to clean at 22:00 so please don’t tell the place is open until 23:30

We loved everything about this place. The restaurant’s atmosphere is very pleasant. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. Overall atmosphere is giving a high quality level experience. We loved this place and will definitely recommend it to our friends who will visit Istanbul. It’s better that you make a reservation before if you come in crowded groups especially. ❤️

As one of the city's oldest gems, it was a disappointment to see how much this place has declined. The consistency of the pumpkin soup was too thin to be satisfying. The linguine was overcooked and served with a very meager portion of seafood. To top it off, the espresso was served almost ice-cold. Staff was attentive and friendly, as always.

Not sure how it got so many rewards or maybe the chef got changed. The atmosphere was relaxing, the restaurant was quiet and empty ( only 2 tables on a Saturday night) The service was good and attentive ✨ The dishes came out fast. The appetizers ( fish and beef carpaccio) were nice, artichoke was quite basic. My main dish was very disappointing. Looked like a cheap canteen dish ( price 970 TL) my beef medallion looked like sliced overcooked beef. Only the sauce was good. Husband got a 28 days dry aged beef (1400 TL) half of it was super dry and no taste of real dry aged beef. Dessert (lime soaked pumpkin) was quite nice. The place was clean. Bathroom was hygienic. But definitely too overpriced. We paid 7000 TL for two, each had one glass of wine. Not worth it. If you’re looking for a culinary experience, better try elsewhere.

I've been to the restaurant 3 times, here are my considerations: LOCATION: good location, large and beautiful entrance, clearly visible restaurant. FOOD AND PRICES: The salad was a little tasteless, I wouldn't recommend it. The risotto and pasta were delicious, very well made. about prices: I included a photo of the menu in the review, I believe it is a little expensive. EMPLOYEES: always very attentive, available when needed and the manager is very friendly too. DRINKS: wines and juices are delicious! I highly recommend going to the restaurant, I was treated very well!

super awful experienced. The food we ordered was a mess . Bread & Kebab & Salad with Beef was not good and taste was terrible for us. and until finished our dinner nobody visit here. during have a meal they are sweeping with a broom all around us again and again even on the table. Terrible experienced. Outrageous Price Hope to Never visit like this place.

Beautiful setting and atmosphere. Pleasantly surprised to find this Turkish restaurant behind the busy streets in Levent. Staffs were very attentive and friendly. Without much expectation, I enjoyed both appetizers. The zucchini was prepared perfectly and the yoghurt source complemented the flavours. Fish soup was quite nice too and the fish in the soup was tender. I’m specifically impressed with the main. It was likely the best kebab I have ever had. The meat was juicy and tender. The sauce, pepper and breads in the dish made the dish so great to eat. There are selection of desserts and a big variety of wine to select from. It’s a wonderful dinning experience at Sans.

Food was absolutely amazing. Kudos to the chef! However, I have a big problem when the restaurant was empty, yet valet decided to move my car 5 meters and decided to charge me when they were not out front to receive me. Even after spending 1000+ TL, they have the audacity to charge me for something that should have been complimentary! The dining experience does not start and finish at the table! Poor strategic planning on behalf of management.

Fish soup, artichokes, and lamb neck. It's hard to imagine that these six words will transport you to a dining experience like no other, in an elegant restaurant located in a city that is of unparalleled sublimity. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and the wine pairings enhanced each course. If dream about the night we had at Şans.
