EDITOR'S REVIEW
Balyan is a recently renovated and reopened rooftop restaurant above Beyazıt, looking out to the sea, the Bosphorus and the Sultanahmet skyline. It brings together food, alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails and shisha in a relaxed setting focused on the view. Its renewed operation continues to centre on the terrace and panorama.

WHO IT SUITS
For couples and groups seeking dinner with a view, a quiet celebration, sunset photos or a shisha-and-cocktail get-together. Guests expecting a live stage or dancing should ask separately about that day's events.
HIGHLIGHTS
A panorama framing the sea and Sultanahmet skyline together, a calm terrace, food, cocktails and shisha, and a location in the historic heart of Beyazıt.
NOTE
Having recently renovated and reopened, Balyan may change its menu, opening hours and terrace layout. Confirm shisha, table location and whether open-air seating is in use for the weather when booking.
GETTING THERE
At Gedikpaşa Caddesi No:60, Mimar Hayrettin Mahallesi, in the Beyazıt–Gedikpaşa area. Walkable from the T1 Beyazıt–Kapalıçarşı stop. As nearby streets are steep and busy, ask ahead about the best taxi drop-off point and building entrance.
