Like mentioned before, this rooftop is the ideal place for a dinner. And the phrase “dinner with a view” has never felt more fitting.
We got a big table by the edge of the terrace overlooking the Bosporus. The sun was starting to set which created a beautiful view over both the city and surrounding landscape.
The atmosphere is very calm and harmonious. The background music was played at a nice volume which meant that you could sit and speak without having to shout to each other.
We could see both romantic dates, family’s and larger companies with people having dinner here. The variety created a great vibe for all guests.
The fact that this rooftop is most suitable for a dinner, means that there’s a great variety of different food to choose from. Here’s the full menu for both food and drinks: http://www.5kat.com/en/menu
We tried some pastas, meat and sharing plates. Loved the sharing plate consisting in some warm snacks like fried halloumi cheese, quesadilla, falafel, and crispy chicken fingers served with special sauce.
The mains were super big. Lot’s of food, which meant we got very full and couldn’t try the desserts. A thing for our next visit here. If you’re a sweet tooth, there are a lot of delicious sweets to choose from the dessert menu.
The drink menu was super large with lots of classic cocktails, beers, wine, champagne, whiskey and everything you can think of when it comes to beverages. A very pleasant thing for those who likes great quality of drinks in all its shapes. We had some wine and beers, which suited our food menu very well.
If your looking for a rooftop restaurant with nice views and a big drink/food menu in a harmonious atmosphere, 5. Kat is the place to visit. You won’t be disappointed.
We can recommend this to everybody who will visit Istanbul soon. This place has been around for more then 25 years and it will probably be around at least 25 years more because of their unique and popular concept.
