The Michelin Guide's review
Deraliye is a landmark of the historical Sultanahmet neighbourhood, where there is one tourist restaurant next to the other. The colourful, opulent decor immediately catches the eye and, like the cuisine, is a tribute to the Ottoman Empire. The extensive menu features an array of dishes devised for sharing and specialities such as mezze, barbecued offerings and kebabs. Tempting options include duck stew in filo pastry with fragrant spiced rice, or a lamb and tomato dish, slowly simmered in an earthenware pot to let the flavours meld. Here, you can savour sumptuous Ottoman cuisine, occasionally presented with a touch of showmanship. Good to know: Deraliye also organises cookery classes.
