Hakkasan Istanbul
Overview
A Michelin-recognized Cantonese restaurant right on the Bosphorus, inside the Kurucesme waterfront strip. Reviewers consistently praise the Peking duck and soft-shell crab, with one calling it the best service they had anywhere in Turkey. Worth knowing: a couple of reviews flag an unexpectedly rude valet experience and oily fried rice on an otherwise strong night — genuinely inconsistent depending on the visit.
