A small and cozy restaurant with a recent Michelin star. The ingredients were all fresh and delicious, and there were even some vegan options available. One thing that stood out to me was the attention to detail in every dish. The flavors were well balanced and the presentation was impeccable. I particularly enjoyed the vegan options, as they were just as tasty as the non-vegan dishes.

We went at afternoon, not at dinner time and we didn’t know that there is an upper part too! For a nice experience, i recommend the upper part which has a cool design. At the first floor there is a cute little terrace and inside that is really terrible, from the entrance to the chairs and seing the huge generator at the door. BUUUT the the food comes and you kind of forget to look arround, everything was exquisite, fresh, fresh tasting and delicious, you keep wondering about how something can taste so simple but complex at the same time. I really enjoyed it!

My first one star Michelin experience. I paid ca $85 for three courses: A beetroot soup, grilled octopus with shrimp bisque and chocolate cake and mousse. The sum is a bit more than I pay for a five course meal at decent restaurants in Norway. Considering this I found the experience a bit expensive even though it is a step up. The dishes were full of original while balanced flavors. The detailed fermented goat cheese cream touched the beautifully colored beetroot soup just perfectly. The octopus was flawlessly grilled, full of flavor without any fuzz. The shrimp bisque was an ocean of flavor. The chocolate cake was a bit disappointing, though. The slightly sharp cognac, ginger and sweet chocolate mousse was a great contrast to the more refined cacao centered cake. However, I still felt I could have expected more.

Probably the best Michelin one-starred experience I have had in Istanbul. Food is nice and connected to Turkish traditions with some modern touch. Service is top notch with great attention yet not posh. The ambience is very simple with attention to details.

I absolutely loved my Araka dining experience! From the appetizers to the main dish, each bite was a delightful culinary trip. Some of the flavor pairings were quite unusual and I was initially a bit skeptical, but my skepticism immediately …

One of the worst e experience ever. Very overage food with some decoration that can satisfy only a person that never been in a Michelin guide restaurant. …

Nice environment and interior design. Let’s say fine dining Turkish cuisine. We ordered 4 starters, 1 main course and a dessert plus a bottle of rose. …

Premier chef restaurant in Istanbul. Be reasonable with your criticism here. Experiment and enjoy the unique tastes and tickle your taste buds

I was traveling to Istanbul from the USA, and I was looking for a high-end dining experience for a romantic date. This place had lots of great reviews and photos, and the vibe was great, but that's the extent of it. After trying 5 dishes …
