Naif Hotel-Adults Only

Istanbul’s female-led restaurant revolution - SilverKris

"At Naif I was given carte blanche on the menu by Seray Oztürk, and the restaurant lives up to its formidable reputation for a high-quality take on Turkish home-style cooking: the space is dominated by a striking blue-and-white artwork of a giant artichoke that lends a Mediterranean mood, and Oztürk refuses to import ingredients, sourcing the very best produce from across Turkey to keep dishes precise and clean; classic fare such as stuffed vine leaves and an agreeably coarse hummus topped with crispy pastourma arrives alongside fresh patties made from greens and herbs." - Dene Mullen
