Yeni Lokanta

Istanbul, Turkey

Known for its relaxed ambience, great service and veteran wood-fired oven, Yeni Lokanta is a Beyoğlu stalwart. Chef Civan Er gives traditional dishes a contemporary spin – substituting the lamb in manti (dumplings), for instance, with dried aubergine – and is committed to seasonality. Some say Er’s muhallebi (milk pudding) coated in strands of pastry, deep fried and served with buffalo-milk ice cream and honey, is worth a visit in itself. Cocktails, small-producer native wines and ambitious tasting menus all add to the restaurant's charm.
