Cafe is the most represented category in Beşiktaş, accounting for 639 listings. Other well-represented categories include Bar (272), Turkish (250), Smoothie Juice Bar (220), — a spread that reflects the range of everyday dining options residents and visitors can choose from.

In total, more than ten distinct cuisine types and venue categories appear in Beşiktaş's listing on e.restaurant.

Turkish dining culture places great emphasis on freshness, hospitality and communal eating. A typical Turkish meal moves through meze (shared cold and hot starters), charcoal-grilled meats or seafood, and ends with tea and sweets. Breakfast is a cherished ritual of bread, cheeses, olives, eggs and jams, often enjoyed at length. Lokanta restaurants serve home-style daily specials at affordable prices, while kebab houses, pide salons and baklava shops line every high street.
