Araki İstanbul

Turkish pop and modern meyhane favorites lead into DJ sets and rhythm shows. On occasions such as New Year's Eve, live performers, dance acts or a separate menu may be added; check the particular date.

Red and orange light covers the ceiling of the indoor room. Long celebration tables face the stage; when performers move among them, guests stand and dance between tables as dinner shifts to group entertainment.

Adult groups from Beylikdüzü, birthday and special occasion parties, company gatherings and friends who want dinner and entertainment at one address.

Neat casual or celebration ready evening clothes fit the stage and dancing around the tables.

Araki Istanbul is an entertaining venue catering to celebratory groups, featuring a spacious layout, dance and light shows, upbeat music, and an attentive team praised in many reviews. Many guests find the food and mezes delicious, the service fast, and the ventilation effective. Conversely, there are accounts citing poor food and service quality, issues with deposit deductions from the final bill, or a lack of clarity regarding the contents of "show drinks." Multiple reviews from the same group report an incident where a guest suffered food poisoning after eating fish—confirmed by a medical report—and claim the establishment failed to show sufficient concern afterward; these accounts appear to relate to a single incident. Cancellation policies, deposit details, menu contents, and additional service charges should be confirmed in writing prior to making a reservation.
