4.4 ·

Book a table at Basta Neo Bistro for an evening built around creative, beautifully plated food. Share starters like tarama and hummus, then try the uykuluk or octopus that diners rave about.

📖

Full description

Basta Neo Bistro serves inventive Turkish-leaning dishes in a stylish dining room, with reviewers singling out uykuluk, octopus, tarama and hummus as highlights and describing the plating as beautiful. Opinions are not uniform: some call it five-star worthy while one long-time visitor found it closer to a would-be fine dining restaurant that never fully satisfied.

With a 4.4 rating, expensive pricing and booking recommended, it suits couples and design-minded diners who want a considered evening meal rather than a casual bite. Plan around a visit of roughly 75 minutes, from late afternoon into the evening.
