nusr-et steakhouse

this is definitely a place you needtovisit when in istanbul. it has great meats from beeftolamb. nusret makes suretocook it perfectly.
the atmosphere is nice and suitable for lunch or dinner for business, with friends or family.

been there without a prior reservation .... and it was a mistake , stayed in queue for 1h 40min .
and expect a bit of rudeness by the spg, maybe coz of client’s pressure.
food was perfect
all dishes are recommended if you are looking for real men meat crave .
staff ( waiters ) were kind despite wrong orders landed on our table 3 times
wine list requested from the waiter but..... never received so we had no wine.
service timing was acceptable
elegant atmosphere and relaxing interior design ambiance
prices were affordable comparingtoother branches in other countries.

so i love their steaks. but i didn't gettohave them. hence a 1.

there are two types of suckers who have hyped up this place. first, people from dubai who pay ridiculous premiumtoeat at nusr-et at four seasons and cometoturkey thinking, "wow let's have the same steaks for 30% of the price!". second suckers are locals who have seen salt bae's videos throwing salt on his elbow in leonardo di caprio's company. the irony is that none of these people come for the food!

i booked a table for 8pm. was in time. was told i havetowait 15 minutes. then after 20 minutes was told the wait is another 20. then at 8:45 i was told my reservation was for 8:30 and i was early and that my wait is another 20 minutes. it felt like a kebab place outside a nightclub.

they also told me that they don't take "table reservations". what the schmuck was the reservation for? toilets?

they should change the way they work. because they really are abouttobecome a great steaks brand. they haven't yet.

the food is absolutely insane, just delicious!
my rating went from 5.0to4.0 because the hosting system is awful! we had reserved 1 hour before arriving, and when we got there we still waited for 1 hour and 45 minutes!!!! had i known this ahead of time i would’ve changed our dinner plans because this was a business dinner with a partner... the hostess kept showing me my name on her ipad and saying we’ll be seated in 10 mins, about 7 times...

nusret steakhouse etiler branch is super crowded. they do not take small group reservations. you arrivetosee people and waiters shoutingtoreserve a table... the management should find a solution for this issue as the scene at the entrance does not resemble the style of the restaurant. food is honestly great.

let me tell you something, your visittoistanbul is definitely incomplete if you don’t pass by nusr-et steakhouse!

the place is supercrowded so you needtomake a reservation. the staff are very professional and work really hardtomake sure everyone gets seated and the customers waitingtofeel at ease with some drinks.

the decoration is very modern and the seating is comfortable, tables are large so they fit the big portions served by the place.

we ordered dana kaburga (beef ribs), fillet mignon bonfíle (fillet mignon steak), and nusret special.

the meat tasted heavenly! it was mouthwatering, and the whole meat experience was amazing! it might be the best meat we ever tasted. i highly recommend all the meals we ordered, with a special highlight on the beef ribs which was our favorite! the meat is juicy, very rich in taste ??

last but not least, for dessert we took the baklava with ice cream which was super delicious!

almost all the meat meals are served with a show which takes youtoa whole another experience!

the overall experience was one of a kind, the prices are expensive, yet they really match the high expectations you put on this place and its food!

would definitely visit again and again!

such a great placetodine at, the meat is so goood and the staff are friendly a bit crowded in the entrance as people are waiting .. overall so goood

great experience. we were there on the 24th night and it was too too crowded. never seen such crowd in any restaurant i’ve beentoanywhere in the world. despite the crowd we were seated within 15 minutes. off course we had reservation otherwise we wouldn’t have been abletosit so quickly. the service was a 5 stars so was the food. i highly recommend this place. trytobook before goingtoavoid waiting. well done for all the team there and thanks for a lovely experience.

after a long wait we tried the famous restaurant, but disappointment begun when we shared a table with another couple and even we insisted on having a separate once available, in 10 min theire was more than 2 tables available, we asked againtomove and again they refused saying it was reserved, the good part is the food was good the wine variety is great from localtoforeign ones
the place is sooo busy so they havetokeep more attention for hygiene especially the menus and table reset
more explanation for beef cuts presented in the menu is a must for a restaurant becoming soo famous world-wide
we left after one hour and both tables were still unoccupied

by far the best thing you can ever eat at istanbul. on the expensive side, yet totally worth it. the meat is premium and cuts like butter!!
everything is a show. from the way they servetothe way they cut the meats and the way they present the food.
i personally tried the tomahawk steak and it was melt-in-your-mouth tender.
exceptional.
no matter how full you felt, do not leave without eating dessert.

staff can be very rude at times, yet they are generally professional.
a lady at the entrance made me laugh with her replytoa person that demanded being seated immediately claimingtobe a friend of nusret. “sir, everyone is a friend of nusret. please wait your turn”.

always book at least a day in advancetoavoid a long wait at the door.

great place for meat lovers!! honestly not the best placetorelax and enjoy the meal, its too crowded and not comfortable. but best meat ! we tried the butter fried steaks and the sushi steakstodie for !

its one of the best places ive been to...great food and excellent service...?? the burgers are soo juicy and the lokum plate istodie for..must try ??

regarding that this restaurant is for salt bae, the customer service is very very very extremely bad. i reserved 2 weeks in advancetoavoid the queue, which wasnt well organized and very crowdy. we ended up waiting 2 hourstoget our table with no priority for our reservation (not talking about the rudeness of the hostess)

coming from dubai, i was expecting thistobe an expensive joint but from what i saw on the menu, it was not one at all. i only had the chancetotaste the now infamous baklawa desert and that experience was a special one. this i a very instagram friendly outlet with folks mainly turning uptotake pictures with the namesake curator or the process of serving their food on the table. it is a must visit if you're a fan of meat & fancy presentations.

one cannot visit istanbul without passing by the famous nusr-et steakhouse.
many reviewers criticized the waiting queues, so we decidedtovisit it for a late sunday lunch at 4:30 pm. we didn't book in advance and were seated within 10 minutes.
we ordered nusr-et burger (lovely thick juicy burger with caramelized onions) and new york steak (extremely juicy steak with baked potato and spinach pure).
the portions are generous, the staff is helpful and the taste is well, amazingtosay the least!
prices: steaks for ~180 tl, burgers for 55 tl, soft drinks for 12 tl, fresh juices 15 tl.
if you're a meat lover, do not miss nusr-et!
