The story
Hakkasan İstanbul serves modern Cantonese cooking at Muallim Naci Caddesi No:62 in Kuruçeşme, Beşiktaş, and is listed as Recommended in the Michelin Guide for 2026.
The contemporary Chinese menu centers on a dim sum selection, duck and seafood dishes. Gault&Millau gave the kitchen 12.5 points in 2026. The wider Hakkasan brand says its cooks pair traditional Cantonese technique with modern touches, and the wine list is built on the principle that "the food chooses the wine."
The restaurant sits inside the Mandarin Oriental Bosphorus Istanbul, and its dining room opens toward the water. Service is meticulous, and the bar has a strong following of its own. Hakkasan interiors generally follow a design first conceived by Christian Liaigre, with dark wood screens and low, careful lighting.
