Azur is a chic restaurant featuring modern works of art and panoramic views of the Bosphorus from its prime Yeniköy location. The quality of seafood on display is second to none, showcased in dishes that fluidly blend Turkish and Mediterranean culinary traditions. From Atlantic bluefin tuna tartare with creamy stracciatella to super-fresh fish on the plancha, paella and pasta, the menu celebrates the sea. Meat fans are also well catered for. Michelin Guide recognition for three consecutive years (2023-2025) and 2 Toques from Gault & Millau.
