Atılay Balık
Türkbükü
Türkbükü's oldest fish house, on the iskele since 1997 and still in family hands
Türkbükü's Armenian-Aegean table, family-run and quietly precise
Garo's has been on the Türkbükü waterfront since the 1990s and remains a family operation in the proper sense: Garo himself most nights at the door, mezes that lean Istanbul-Armenian, fish the way fish should be done. The room is small enough that two seatings fill out any August night.
Reserve the front-row table by phone, not online. Topik, midye dolma, then whatever is the best fish on the ice that day.
