EDITOR'S REVIEW

Get to know the venue before you go

Grace Rooftop is a terrace restaurant in Sultanahmet pairing views of the Historic Peninsula with dishes inspired by Ottoman palace cooking.

Music & programme

Gentle instrumental interpretations of traditional Turkish melodies, Mediterranean sounds, and ambient lounge music set the tone. There are no large live stage shows or energetic DJ parties; light acoustic performances or soothing background music may be offered each day.

Atmosphere

Blue velvet seating, warm lighting, and mosque silhouettes seen through broad windows create a calm evening centered on the view.

Concept

A rooftop combining a panoramic Historic Peninsula terrace with Ottoman-inspired cuisine, international choices, cocktails, live music, and special evening programs.

Guest profile

Couples, celebration groups, visitors exploring the Historic Peninsula, and local and international guests seeking a rooftop meal with live music.

Dress code

Comfortable city attire is suitable for Grace Rooftop; a dress or shirt complements the setting.

Inside the Venue

At Grace Rooftop, domes, minarets and the sea stretch beyond the window. Inside, white cloths, glassware and small flowers create a simple table setting. Dishes prepared in the kitchen bring colour to the tables. When the sky turns orange, sitting beside the window becomes even more enjoyable.

Customer Review Summary

Almost all reviews for Grace Rooftop are positive. The view of the Historic Peninsula—stretching toward the Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet—is considered romantic and impressive, especially at sunset. Visitors praise the delicious food, mezes, breakfast, and cocktails, noting the satisfying portion sizes and the venue's stylish, well-maintained appearance. Frequent mention is made of the fast service and the warm, polite, and professional team; the venue is recommended for corporate events, hotel stays, and special evenings. While some comments note high prices, the view and overall experience are generally considered to justify the cost. No significant or recurring issues regarding service or quality are reported.

WHO IT SUITS

Is this venue right for you?

For couples and small groups planning a meal or drink with a view.

HIGHLIGHTS

Highlights

Distinctive palace-inspired recipes such as the chef's stuffed melon and hibiscus sherbet, hygiene standards recognized by local authorities, and themed rooftop photos in original Ottoman outfits offered free to guests.

NOTE

Before your visit

The main dining room is one floor below the rooftop, inside an enclosed space with large windows. The actual open-air 360-degree terrace is used after dinner for photos, coffee, and cocktails, rather than a full meal. A substantial standard service charge is also added to bills.

GETTING THERE

Getting to the venue

On Terzihane Street in Binbirdirek, about a four-minute walk from the T1 Sultanahmet tram stop toward the courthouse.
