Among these restaurants freshly unearthed by the MICHELIN Guide Inspectors, 2 have been directly awarded One MICHELIN Star, 8 a Bib Gourmand and 6 a MICHELIN Green Star.
Another restaurant, previously recommended last year, was promoted this year and awarded a Bib Gourmand. Gwendal Poullennec, International director of the MICHELIN Guide, comments: “Once again this year, our Inspectors were won over by the richness and uniqueness of the Turkish culinary scene. With their local craftsmanship, remarkable initiatives that draw the contours of an ever more virtuous gastronomy, and the creativity that is harnessed to reinvent local culinary traditions, Istanbul, Izmir and Muğla are revealing themselves to be a veritable gastronomic mosaic.
” “Furthermore, as we begin to explore new territories in Muğla and Istanbul, our inspection teams are gradually uncovering hidden treasures and unique establishments that will delight local gourmets and international travelers alike. This 2025 selection is a true ode to culinary dynamism and diversity, where each region shines with its own personality and identity.” Casa Lavanda and Na.
