>Without a doubt, Iskele Balık, located in Rumeli Hisarı, is one of the restaurants on the list of top seafood restaurants. The restaurant is on the ancient pier, not near the water, but just above it. We can say that the seagulls that accompany this particular spot are also Iskele’s regulars. There is a great Bosphorus view from the restaurant which makes the atmosphere stunning.
At Iskele Balık, you can begin your meal with restaurant-specific appetizers prepared with seafoods or classics such as haydari, eggplant salad, lakerdai marinated seabass, köppğlu and continue with Jumbo shrimp or Iskele Special, and end with a selection from a seasonally varying fish menu as the main course. “Tuzda Levrek,” a top quality dish, is a must-try. Keep in mind that it comes in a large size, so it’s best to order it if you’re dining with a group.
İskele Balık is also a great options for a date, business dinner or celebrations. It’s recommended to book a table beforehand, since it’s a very popular spot. You may eat lunch or dinner here. Alcohol is served in the restaurant. The pricing is also a little above the average due to the popularity and the location of the restaurant (the restaurants on the Bosphorus are generally above the average in terms of pricing), but it’s worth the price!
