Mikla Restaurant Roof Top Bar

Mikla Restaurant Roof Top Bar

Fine dining restaurant with contemporary styling & rooftop terrace, offering a tasting menu. Located on the roof of the fashionable Marmara Pera hotel, its sublime views over Istanbul include the Hagia Sophia and the Topkapi Palace. With retro chrome furniture and a bar made from wooden railroad ties, Mikla is urban, sleek and stylish.

The unique menu reflects the Turkish-Scandinavian background of Chef-Owner Mehmet Gürs, who pioneered the contemporary restaurant scene in Istanbul. Gürs skillfully merges Turkish and Scandinavian cooking techniques, producing delicacies such as raw grouper with olives and lemon, and a Turkish coffee vanilla slice with raspberry sorbet. The roof terrace bar of Mamara Pera is perfect for pre-dinner drinks. Take in soft jasmine scents and sip on a generously measured martini as you watch the sun set on this historic city.

The rooftop terrace Mikla at the Marmara Pera Hotel has pretty much everything one could ask for. Rooftop pool, rooftop bar, rooftop restaurant and a stunning view over Istanbul in every direction. Most famous is probably the restaurant part of Mikla, which earned spot nr. 52 in the Worlds 50 Best Restaurants-ranking of 2019. But apart from food at the very highest class, you can also visit the rooftop bar, that offers great cocktails and mellow vibes in a very stylish setting. Or even better, stay at the hotel and also enjoy the fantastic rooftop pool.

Mikla Restaurant is the place to go. The New York Times describes it as “forward thinking yet profoundly entrenched and above all tasty.” The restaurant is located on the top of the Marmara Pera Hotel in Taksim’s Asmalmescit neighborhood. It offers one of the Istanbul’s most spectacular views. Not only is the food delicious, but you also get a panoramic view of the city.
