Anatolia, which embraces thousands of civilizations, mixes the colors of three continents, unites the East and the West, and contains the secrets of the past...
While each product that comes to life in these lands carries the silent story of the past and the hope of the future, just like the gratitude of the olive tree that bows to the sky and salutes its soil every moment the wind touches your heart; He wrote the tale of a pleasure that will never end and an excitement that will never fade.
With the inspiration we draw from our heritage, we started a brand new adventure 3 years ago in the heart of Göktürk, Istanbul, with LOKANTA, where we breathed the spirit of Anatolia, which draws its strength from itself, like a phoenix, in order to honor these ancient lands and the gifts of generous nature. We have established a passionate team that speaks proudly to the future with the teachings of the past, finds its essence and strives to protect and glorify it. Like the symphony of colors emanating from the brush of a master painter, we have become the discoverers of unprecedented tables, flavors that accompany laughter, and masterfully crafted plates by combining the flavor melodies of Ancient Anatolia with the sound of the whole world.
We crowned the Anatolian flavors, which we illuminated with the vast knowledge of Chef Muhsin Ertürk, the protagonist of this adventure, with our ceramics shaped with these lands. We have always wanted to touch the soul of everyone who is a guest at our tables.
Just one moment. Just in that one moment when you allow the breeze of the past to surround you, you too will discover how the flavors we have have turned into treasures over the years. This magical moment brings together the people of the world in a common language in which only flavors speak, hiding in the memory of the grass born from the abundance of Mesopotamia and dancing with the winds of the Aegean, the fish struggling with the rough waves of the Black Sea, and a grain of wheat growing in the snow-covered fields of the East.
We have carefully blended the most elegant notes of 7 regions. Now it's time to discover the symphonies of flavors that will make your soul dance together at LOKANTA.
