The chic Topaz has quite a reputation among Istanbul's foodies. They can't get enough of the linguine made with freshly caught seafood, not to mention the butter-soft grilled octopus accompanied by herbs and a sweet potato puree. Mediterranean dishes are given a typically Turkish twist here. Be sure to let them know just how spicy you want it. Why not stick around after your meal to enjoy a delicious cocktail and the wonderful view of the Bosphorus as the DJ plays the hottest beats?
