Hürriyet, National Newspaper
“A highly unlikely possibility as the blending of cooked fruits and nuts with meats and vegetables, the variety and quality of the ingredients, the unexpected combinations all enhanced by �avorful and aromatic herbs and spices combine to make dining at Matbah a singular, memorable experience.”
Myrna Katz Frommer and Harvey Frommer
"The meal I had here de�nitely �ts the principles of traditional Turkish cuisine. In many dishes we see a beautiful harmony between sweet and sharper savours, with a sophisticated presentation.”
Vedat Milor, Food and Wine critic
"A lavish, garden-style restaurant where the chefs have painstakingly replicated centuries-old recipes. The creamy bitter-almond soup and the honeydew melon stuffed with minced beef, rice, almonds and raisins are sweet and salty without too much heft. Ah, it is good to be sultan."
Hemispheres Magazine, United Airlines
"Whenever you come to Istanbul, if you want to eat like a sultan, go to Matbah Restaurant, next to Hagia Sophia"

Ottoman Palace Cuisine The Ottoman Empire has reigned over the huge lands for centuries and coexisted
with many nations and cultures. By synthesizing all the acquainted cultures in order to produce a unique taste of its own, through the time, the Ottomans have enriched the Ottoman
Cuisine. Several cuisines majorly deriving from Middle Asia, the Balkans, the Middle East, Mediterranean and Europe are the main contributors to the Ottoman Cuisine.
This cuisine has prevailed mostly in the kitchens of the Ottoman Palace and therefore, the palace has turned out to be a unique place in order to grasp its tastes completely.
Unfortunately, since the guilds of the palace cooks did keep their recipes as professional secrets, this magnificent cuisine has lost some of its unique tastes nowadays.
After long and professional researches conducted at the palace libraries, through the books and documents written by palace historians and guild of cooks
(who had preferred to share their experiences instead of keeping them as secrets) we, Matbah Restaurant, benefited from all these documents and recipes to prepare a selective and unique
menu containing of thirty three out standing recipes from Matbah-ı Beray-i (Kitchen of Sultan’s Palace) for your exclusive taste.
All dishes served are tested, improved and adapted to the measure meticulously which we do use nowadays. Besides, we have noted all the utmost details regarding
with the Ottoman-style cooking. After an exquisite exercise and efforts, the stunning recipes have been completed and adjoined to our selective menu.
The Ottoman grandeur and hospitality prevailing at “Matbah” is welcoming the exclusive guests and gourmets who do delight in the comfort of a vibrant
ambiance at different seasons throughout the year.
Hope you will enjoy your meal at Matbah.
