Royal Rooftop — Istanbul.

Dine above Istanbul.

In the heart of Küçük Ayasofya — steps from the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque — Royal Rooftop offers an unobstructed view of the old city, the Bosphorus, and the skyline that has captivated travelers for centuries.

Our kitchen draws from the depth of Turkish tradition: slow-cooked Ottoman classics, charcoal-fired kebabs, fresh-caught seafood, and house-made mezzes prepared the way they have been for generations. Alongside them, international favorites — dry-aged steaks, hand-tossed pasta, stone-oven pizzas — every dish crafted with the same care, served under the same sky.
