TURK Fatih Tutak: 12 Answers Before Booking the Experience

Understand the 14-course slow-dining format, current price, deposit, dress code and dietary limits through official information.

TURK Fatih Tutak is Istanbul’s two-MICHELIN-Star chef restaurant and serves only a long tasting menu. The useful question is not simply whether it is good, but whether this tightly defined format suits you. This guide compares the restaurant’s current booking rules with its MICHELIN listing and does not pretend to be a first-hand review.

Understand the format first

The official site defines the experience as a 14-course, tasting-menu-only slow dinner requiring about 200 minutes. Water, coffee and tea are included, while wine and non-alcoholic pairings are offered separately.

This is not designed for choosing one dish and leaving quickly. It is for guests willing to give the full evening to the sequence set by the kitchen.

12 clear answers before booking

These conditions come from the official reservation page.

  • The menu has 14 courses and may include additional surprises.

  • Allow about 200 minutes.

  • There is no à la carte option.

  • The current published menu price is TRY 19,900 per guest.

  • A TRY 7,500 per-person prepayment is required.

  • The prepayment is deducted from the final bill.

  • Cancellations within 72 hours are not eligible for a refund.

  • Bookings allow a minimum of 1 and maximum of 5 guests per table.

  • The dress code is semi-formal.

  • The restaurant says it cannot accommodate vegan, vegetarian, lactose-intolerant or coeliac diets.

Price and pairings

On 12 August 2026, the official page listed the menu at TRY 19,900 per guest, a seven-wine pairing at TRY 8,900 and a six-drink house-made non-alcoholic pairing at TRY 5,900. VAT is stated as included.

These figures are dated snapshots; use the amount shown during booking. Plan arrival as well: the official page says valet parking is not available.

TURK’s menu changes with micro-seasons, so individual dish names should not be treated as permanent.
Who may find TURK Fatih Tutak worthwhile?

It may be a strong destination meal for diners who enjoy long tasting menus, eat fish and seafood, accept the kitchen’s pace and understand the full budget. It is not suitable for flexible à la carte choice, a quick dinner or broad dietary adaptation.
