It's just the best place. The freshest seafood is only caught. A huge selection. There are many restaurants around where they will immediately prepare whatever you choose. The prices are excellent. For example, an already cooked crab costs 280 liras, for our 560rubles.

A must-visit if you want to have a delicious seafood meal and not be left without pants. Dinner on the shore of the Bosphorus, excellent service, there is a Russian-speaking guy at the entrance, helps to choose and makes arrangements with restik about cooking. The point is, you buy a fish , and they cook it for 150/200 lire per person. The restaurant ordered vegetable salads (a huge 1 by 2-3 can be safely served). Fish is cooked and served insanely tasty and aesthetically pleasing. For the service +15% by default, but it's worth it! I highly recommend it, we would have come earlier and had dinner only on TV

The place is worth visiting at least once. An ordinary fishing market, where you can immediately prepare the purchased product. According to the reviews below, I chose the first restaurant to the left of the entrance. We had shrimps and Turkish mussels with rice. The mussels didn't go by, but the shrimps are divine: fresh and perfectly cooked, not rubbery, in butter, baked. I recommend a visit.

An amazing place with a huge selection of fresh seafood. Fish of various types, shrimps from small to huge, oysters, lobsters, what not here. Everything is fresh and beautiful. Besides, if you wish, I can cook everything you choose right here, right in front of you. There are also several fish restaurants where you can relax, taste seafood dishes and have a good evening.

When I visit Istanbul, I always buy myself fresh shrimps, which are immediately prepared for me in a cafe and I take the ready-made ones to the hotel. In March, the cost of 1 kilogram of tiger prawns was 200lr +100lr for cooking-my daughter and I ate too much. In December, prices increased by 2 times. I took half a kilo for the same money, they also cooked it on the grill and offered tea for free.

if you want to feel like a fisherman and eat fresh fish that will be cooked in your presence, you are welcome here, I have not seen such a variety on the shelves for a long time. There are small establishments nearby where you can cook any chosen seafood) I do not advise you to go to the restaurant farthest to the pier, to the left of the market (horse prices, they bring a lot of snacks and water, which if you do not refuse immediately add to the bill, it is very smoky)

Arriving at the fish market, all the fresh fish that you have just caught will be waiting for you. They'll cook it for you on the spot in any cafe. The prices are reasonable. I recommend you to visit, you won't regret it.

There are a lot of fish and shellfish, a large selection can be prepared in one of the restaurants, but the price will be much higher than on the menu. Don't fall for the trick of being five times more expensive

So I got to this place. The prices are really cheaper than in many places, but still not cheap. As of March 2024, prices have increased significantly, and all these fish have long been no longer worth 120-170 lire. Now the cheapest is 180 lire, and so here the prices are 250-360 lire for 1 fish. The soup is not 40 lire, but 100) and this is in the most inexpensive place. There is a fish mini market and cafes / restaurants of 9 pieces. There are few fish in the windows, there are practically no guests, apparently the demand is small. All sellers are calling to themselves. The cheapest is the cafe immediately to the left of the entrance. But it doesn't look good and there is 1 person working there. He takes orders, he cooks and serves. For 630 liras they took a delicious fish soup, sea bass, squid rings (180 liras, not tasty at all :(), juice and French fries (90 liras, delicious). In other places, prices are 1.5-2 times more expensive) and in Istanbul itself it is even more expensive by 3 times, so it is well worth coming, but the prices of past reviews are not very relevant)

The horse prices, the unpleasant smell of stale fish, very intrusive sellers, the choice is scarce. It seemed that tourists were bussed here for a percentage. We regretted coming, it's a bit difficult to get to the location.

What prices are we talking about in other places? A hundred meters away there is a ring with restaurants in the city and there is a hundred dollars less cost. I went in - the market, fish, crabs - wow, well, what do they cook xs, portions for children, more vegetables for volume, even put a head - this is the edge. For some sea bass 550, they put a plate with butter - then it was included in the price. The entourage is cheap, the pitch is about nothing, the prices are cosmic and also dissatisfied - despondency. . Accordingly, there are no people there, there are plenty of places around the city with the same menu and cheaper. If you want pathos, eat a fish head for insane money, and I? I want sea bass..Hurry up

We were here today, we bought langoustines and oysters right at the entrance. About 1.3 kg each. I paid 800 lire for it. Then they cooked it all in the restaurant, 4 cups of tea, salad, bread and butter and dessert (a piece of baklava, an orange and an apple), there was also water, they put a table right on the lawn and the view was great. It all came out to 600 lire plus a tip of 50-100 lire or so, I don't remember exactly how much, I gave everything small. In general, I highly recommend it!

There is not only a fish market here, but also excellent fish restaurants with wonderful views! If you enter the entrance, there will be a Guvet Kismet fish restaurant on the right. Very tasty and very friendly manager. The prices are the lowest in Istanbul. Here are the prices for April 2023, what's on the menu is on the receipt, no hidden charges. For reference, sea bass everywhere from 170lir, here 120 and you yourself at the fish market will choose which one to cook for you!

There's an establishment on the right side at the end of the market, don't go there. Firstly, the prices are being pushed up, and secondly, the feed is just flat..Get out. In the photo, I cut the fish myself and decorated it as much as possible on my own, for the photo. Unfortunately, I did not take the photo as it was brought. It looked like the sole of a runner. It tastes the same as the sole. Being a chef, I have an idea how it was prepared.…

The seagulls are fat, the fish is fresh, but in the cafe in the corridor of the market center you will be served oysters with sand or whatever else crunches on your teeth. Fish is cooked on solid 4, deep fryers are difficult to cook poorly 🤣 It is necessary to bargain boldly attributed to the preparation of the dish, even though you ordered from the menu of ready meals

It's a great place compared to 99% of Istanbul restaurants, where, sorry, there are seafood. Here, for 7000 rubles, they cooked a huge lobster, a bunch of tiger shrimps, oysters, salads, sauces, beer. We bought a couple of cans of fresh salmon caviar, gave three live crayfish as a gift, which we cooked already in the hotel room and wildly devoured))))

It's a complete deception. The store is on the right, just beyond the entrance. They do not give the menu, they impose dishes that are not on the menu, respectively, they come up with prices themselves. When ordering, he says that it costs 400 lire, then 1400 lire is brought in the receipt. They even include "free bread and water" in the receipt. When asked, show the price on the menu for the dish, says no, it's a special dish. Avoid it.

I don't know who could eat there cheaply, but an octopus and three langoustines came out in 1550 lire. ~80$ Otherwise, everything is fine. The octopus is delicious. The most delicious of all that have been eaten before. Minus a star for the price, but there are rather disappointed expectations based on previous reviews. P.S. They didn't take anything with them, they managed to eat everything in the restaurant.

At the same time, only drinks can be ordered in the restaurant itself, and the fish will be cooked in the form in which you order it. We took two fish, octopus, squid, king prawns, and I don't remember how many bottles of beer. It cost 655 liras, we didn't finish dinner, and the next day we had enough for lunch.
