Levent, Beşiktaş

A quiet lunch-and-dinner option in Is Kuleleri with restrained Japanese aesthetics, balanced sushi and a hot kitchen. The menu keeps a clear japanese focus while food and setting work as one; this venue earns its place through a complete experience, not reputation alone.

Plant-Forward Dining Editor

For Selin, a strong plant-forward restaurant should build its own culinary language without feeling defined by omission. She considers menu range, seasonality, allergen clarity and how prepared the kitchen is for different needs.

Areas of focus

  • Vegetarian cooking
  • Vegan options
  • Seasonal produce
  • Allergen communication

Editorial principles

  • Judge choice together with quality
  • Look for clear allergen information
