We made reservations at the seafood restaurant (tapas) and were planning to go to the nightclub afterward. We arrived for our reservation and were denied at the door (3 guys, well dressed, etc). You cannot go without girls, which I can appreciate, but why would they take the reservation initially? Hate to plan our night around reina only to have... More

Get used to it people! That's part of the deal with most flash nightclubs the... More

Location is great, with a nice terrace on the Bosphorus. Service is extremely poor. Personnel is extremely arrogant! they are all but customer friendly. I was charged for I drink I didn't order, and there was no way to get my money back. A theft in other words! A friend of mine was repeteadly admonished for dancing too close to... More

We went there for dinner. What a rip off!!! They charge you for everything. Our water bill was more than US $40. They want you to spend US$150 plus per person. We spent close to $100 per person for dinner. As the night progresses, they charge whatever they have in mind. My friend was charged Turkish LR 125 for a... More

Every staff member is down right rude and arrogant. Lousy service and bad food. Attitude, that we have never seen before. I wonder why this place is still not shut down. About time

Istanbul as a whole isn't an example of slick and perfect service with regards to hospitality, but this definitely has to be the worst experience I've ever had in a pseudo classy place where everyone seems to direct you when you ask about a good club in Istanbul. First, you HAVE TO book a table to eat there if you... More
