How to read this data

The figures cover only the published Choose Istanbul directory; they do not represent every restaurant in the city. Counts and distributions can change as records are published or updated. A verification date shows when an editor compared record details with sources; it is not a continuous guarantee of quality.

How to read the figures

The restaurant total counts distinct published venue records. Hours coverage measures records with opening-hours data. Booking-link coverage measures records with an online booking link; its absence does not mean that a restaurant does not take reservations.

Report time and verification date

Read the report generation time alongside the date venue information was checked. When comparing reports, take changes in coverage into account.
