Three generations of
culinary tradition.

A story that began on Denizciler Street.

After mastering his craft at Pandeli Restaurant in Istanbul, Mehmet Recai Boyacıoğlu began the story of Boğaziçi Lokantası in Ulus, Ankara in 1956.

Our restaurant on Denizciler Street introduced guests to Turkish and Ottoman dishes. From morning soup to lunch, our tables became part of daily life in Ankara.

“Running a restaurant is an art.”

Mehmet Recai Boyacıoğlu passed his craft and dedication to his son Halil İbrahim Boyacıoğlu. Guided by the belief that running a restaurant is an art, this journey reached its third generation with Sefa Boyacıoğlu.

The same address, the same care.

As we celebrate 70 years since our beginnings in 1956, we carry on the craftsmanship of three generations at the same address. We bring Turkish and Ottoman dishes to your table with the same care. Please join us as our guest.
