THE RESTAURANT
.
Embracing the concept of traditional Istanbul meyhanes, this popular Sydney establishment prioritizes its drinks menu as much as its food. Guests can indulge in traditional Turkish Raki, explore wines from various regions of Turkey, or savour signature cocktails to celebrate life.
The venue's design mirrors the modern side of Istanbul, with the iconic Bosphorus Blue prominently featured throughout the restaurant. Following the typical meyhane style, Anason is open for drinks paired with mezes or for a full feast. We invite you to join us and allow us to transport you on a journey to the Bosphorus, where you can experience some of Turkey's renowned hospitality!
