How to Book TURK Fatih Tutak, Istanbul (2026)
Published · Updated
TURK Fatih Tutak is the most decorated table in Turkey, and it takes no third-party platform. Booking is a form, a long lead time, and a deposit that confirms the seat.
Turkey's first two-Michelin-star room books only via turkft.com with a deposit; lock your date six months out for Istanbul's hardest seat.
How Hard Is TURK Fatih Tutak to Book?
TURK Fatih Tutak is the hardest fine-dining seat in Istanbul, and the difficulty is the lead time rather than a midnight scramble. Fatih Tutak holds two Michelin stars, the first restaurant in Turkey to do so, and the room in the Bomonti district of Sisli is small. The kitchen recommends booking six months or more ahead through the reservation form at turkft.com, and weekend dates fill first.
There is no Resy, Tock or OpenTable listing; the only route is the restaurant's own form, followed by email confirmation from the team. A booking is not held until you have completed the form and received that confirmation, so treat the form as the start of the process, not the end.
The Form, the Deposit and the Table
Reservations run entirely through turkft.com, with the team reachable by email at [email protected] or by WhatsApp for date changes. Once your request is accepted, a deposit of 7,500 Turkish lira per guest is due within 24 hours to confirm, and the deposit is set against the bill on the night. The tasting menu is 16,500 lira per guest for fourteen courses, so the deposit is roughly half the food cost held up front.
Tables seat a minimum of two and a maximum of five, which rules out solo seats and large parties. If your dates are firm, submit the form the moment your window opens and reply to the deposit request quickly, as unconfirmed holds are released back to the waiting list.
What You Are Actually Booking
