The Verdict

Saku, recommended to me by my friend @mehmetkalkan_mmm_ Simple yet refined ambiance sets the stage for an extraordinary dining experience. This fusion Japanese Asian restaurant goes beyond the clichés of its counterparts that have sprouted up in recent years. menu unveils an array of dishes that break free from the usual suspects like Edamame and Black Cod. Every dish is bursting with depth and nuance that reflects the mastery of Chef Canberk Temel and his dedicated team. Service, too, is a testament to excellence. The staff embodies professionalism and attentiveness, going above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction. It's a rare gem to encounter a waiter who advises you to remove certain items from your order if they feel it might overwhelm your senses. They kindly inform you in advance about the cooking time required for certain dishes, ensuring that your expectations are managed and your patience rewarded. All in all, this is an experience that will leave you yearning for more. Rating is #excellent
