We arrived pretty late for our reservation, nonetheless, we were welcomed warmly. Kitchen was about to close in 15 mins when we arrived, we werent rushed at all, instead the chef took time out to explain the dishes to us and made some recommendations for our desserts. It turned out to be a really pleasant evening courtsey of the staff and chef. We will definitely be back next time we find ourself in Istanbul.

King Crab Fried Rice was superb A+ Sushi was B- and did not expectations or match photos. Tuna was not up to snuff for Akira Back. Salmon was just okay. Ebi was good. Edamame was solid. Gyoza was solid. The manager was very good and interactive with his team and customers. Overall I would come back but would focus into the non sushi items.

All tastes are created by consideration. Tasting menu is very tasty and making you happy step by step. All the foods has own signature touch. Sushi and main course (steak with japanese mushroom which served on stone) are a little bit under our expectation but others were a good experience for us. Special thanks to servers that served and explained each course kindly.
