Banyan Restaurant

Great Asian food on a huge terrace overlooking the water at the fishing village turned cafe and bar enclave of Ortakoy. Live jazz at sunset.

Banyan is a ‘dream come true’. It is a dream built by a couple (Asli & Cem) who have a strong passion for food and desire to create.

Banyan is known for its’ unique, creative food and drinks. Seabass wrapped in a banana leaf, Sichuan pepper steak, Asian beef, chicken or duck satays served on mini charcoal bbq, variety of steamed Chinese ‘Dim Sums’, Asian Fusion tea with kakule and dried orange slices, vodka with fresh pomegranate juice are just a few samples from the menu.

Banyan is known for its’ healthy food. Its’ famous home-made bread, special sauces that are prepared with all fresh ingredients, mostly preferred ‘grill’ and ‘wok’ cooking techniques, juices prepared with the freshest fruits and vegetables, great variety of healing tea selections are all comparable to the quality of home cooking.
