Excellent service paired with excellent food and drink. The Negroni might be the best I’ve ever had. Also noteworthy was the octopus and the beef dumpling - sour, savory, spicy and simply delicious.

Melis Ucuncu

Never ever dissapoints!Managed to keep the same quality since the day it opened!I am a huge fan! Love the drinks (have fuki if u like ginger ) ,I m not gonna mention the food as it is just delicious!

Hamza Asaissi

The restaurant has a good fine-dining atmosphere without being too expensive . The food is excellent and the service is great especially Ayhan who spoke good English and explained things really well .

Daniel Vasilyev

Amazing restaurant ! They have a set-menu and an a la carte one. Both of them look interesting and delicious. I tried the set-menu. Price for that was absolutely reasonable. Service was awesome too!

Eylül Görmüş

Definitely the best food in the city . Chef Civan Er describes his dishes as "honest food", and you'll understand what he means after eating here. Everything you'll taste here is delicately beautiful.

Jj Acuna

Unassuming and elegant Local cuisine . Delicious Turkish staples that are refreshing yet classic. The complimentary croissant-like bread and burned butter are the best.

One of the best restaurants in Istanbul , our favorite. Go for the tasting menu , each food is delicious and fusion of authentic and modern.

Cem Çıkla

It was a unique dining experience for me in Istanbul. The bluefish I had was immaculate and the desserts are highly recommended! Thank you for the hospitality Yeni Lokanta.

Ali Arslan Gürkan

Modern Turkish mezes as its tasting menu , not exactly suited for wine . Most are non-traditional food combinations; those that are, are slightly different than traditional ones. Good service as well .

Alexis Sogl

Divine food in an adorable neighbourhood. If you can’t make it to Mikla (expect to spend about £60-80) then make this place your fancy meal of the trip. The food is just as good.

Burak Uysal

Tasting menu with a nice bottle of Cabernet red wine . Carrot spread was the cutest of all starters. Grilled meatballs was the best hot meal. Followed by Zucchini flower fritter so yummy.

Özgür

Highly recommend the tasting menu , service staff is very good and cocktails are very creative although expect to pay at minimum 150tl per head at the end of the night.

Laercio Munechika

Amazing meal - dishes are simple and tasty. Eggplant dumplings , beef ribs and vine leaf rolled meat are great

Shoko Okada

Most wonderful experience the tasting menu came with dozen dishes full of flavor and surprises. Impeccable service and great Turkish wine . Cannot recommend highly enough!!

Merve Melodi

You should try manti with eggplant and antakya yogurt.Pacanga, kisir and humus are also amazing.Very good service ????

Fantastic dishes. Especially the grilled octopus and lamb ravioli . Prices are more Like London prices here, but nothing crazy.
