The story

Sade Beş Denizler Mutfağı in Istanbul: Turkish Dining in Teşvikiye, Michelin Bib Gourmand 2026

Sade Beş Denizler Mutfağı is a Turkish kitchen at Akkavak Sokak No:36 in Teşvikiye, Şişli, Istanbul, and it holds a 2026 Michelin Bib Gourmand for good quality, good value cooking.

Chef Deniz Şahin's cooking

Chef Deniz Şahin leads the kitchen, and the menu draws on the Five Seas, the region around the Black Sea, Caspian, Persian Gulf, Red Sea and Mediterranean. Dishes run from light snacks to full dinners. Gault&Millau awarded the restaurant 12.5 for 2026, and the guide lists Deniz Şahin and Alihan Şahin among its founding partners.

Dishes worth ordering

Kocco kokoreç, lamb offal seasoned with thyme and cumin, is one of the house favourites. Sakızlı muhallebi, a milk pudding flavoured with mastic and served with sour cherry sauce, is the dessert regulars ask about. Smaller plates include hummus with tahini, muhammara and tarhanalı tavuk, chicken fillets coated in tarhana and set over rocket.
