Banyan Ortakoy
Muallim Naci Caddesi Cuisines: Chinese, Asian, Thai, IndianAbout
This top floor hot spot takes full advantage of its position overlooking Ortaköy and the Bosphorus, with an amazing outdoor terrace that in the crisper months is heated by an open firepit and heat lamps. It also capitalizes on a hip menu that fuses Mediterranean staples with Asian accents. There's seafood with ginger sauce, octopus carpaccio with wasabi aioli, and sake-marinated chargrilled filet mignon in a ginger teriyake sauce. The noodle bar caters to lighter appetites, and you can choose from 20 different types of tea. Banyan has a second location in Nisantasi at Abdi Ipekci Cad. 40/3 (tel. 0212/219-6011).
