Beyti, Fine dining restaurant in Bakırköy, Turkey
Beyti is a fine dining restaurant spread across three floors with eleven dining rooms and a terrace, featuring traditional Turkish architectural design and garden sculptures. The spaces are distributed across multiple levels and offer various dining options with views overlooking the garden.
The restaurant was founded in 1945 as a small roadside stop with four tables and grew over the following decades. An article in the New York Herald Tribune in 1965 brought it international attention and attracted visitors from many countries.
The place is known for its grilled lamb and beef dishes prepared following traditional Turkish recipes over charcoal fire. Visitors can watch the chefs work the meat directly in front of the grill using time-honored techniques.
The venue is located in Şenlikköy and is open daily from 11:30 AM to midnight, accepting credit card payments. Wheelchair access is available, making it convenient for visitors with limited mobility.
The signature dish was created after the founder learned Swiss butchery techniques in 1961 and applied his knowledge to a special creation. The dish features lamb fillet wrapped in oil and fat and became the namesake for the entire establishment.
