Restaurant

The Marmara Pera & Mikla restaurant in Istanbul - Fine dining.

Mikla opened in October 2005. The initial idea was to create a refined but contemporary “Istanbullu” Restaurant. Both the menu and the general feel of the restaurant reflect the Turkish-Scandinavian background of Mehmet Gürs, the Chef-Owner who was among the first to pioneer the contemporary restaurant scene in Istanbul when he moved to Istanbul in 1996.

The name of the restaurant is derived from "Miklagard", the Old Norse name for Istanbul, meaning "the Great Town".

Food

Mikla launched its ‘New Anatolian Kitchen’ in 2012.

Location

Located on the roof top floor of “The Marmara Pera” hotel.
