İstanbul, Türkiye

Located in Etiler at the crossroads of Arnavutköy, Ulus, and Levent, Kile is a renowned restaurant offering the most outstanding dishes of Turkish Cuisine with a modern interpretation. Designed with the concept of a prestigious steakhouse, it reflects an elegant atmosphere that merges the traditional with the modern. With a total seating capacity of 200, the restaurant features 530 m² of indoor space and 400 m² of outdoor seating, providing a versatile setting perfect for large gatherings.

Kile Restaurant has a diverse selection of kebabs and meat dishes from various regions of Anatolia. The concept is designed to cater to the aesthetic and spatial comfort needs of its target clientele, highlighting the presentation and unique features of its products. Dark colors are used in contrast with lighter colored glossy or matte materials to emphasize the sense of depth in the interior. The use of wood adds a rustic charm, while the heaviness of this aesthetic is balanced by striking ceiling lights, elegant chandeliers with traditional decorations, and glazed columns that reference classical lines. In addition to harmoniously blending traditional and contemporary elements, the use of a combination of hidden lights and spotlights helps create an intimate atmosphere. The display shelves and bar are specially designed for the brand. Among the most striking elements of the decor are paintings by İsmail Acar and specially designed printed mirror panels, both of which add a unique touch that reflects aspects of Turkish culture.

The interior design was completed by Baran Uyan, while the detailed botanical garden and landscape design of the restaurant were collaboratively created by BRN Architects and Peyzaj Center. The garden deck features wooden planks arranged at various angles, creating a dynamic composition. Three specially crafted hand-carved log tables, inspired by the traditional Han tables of the past, were created by İsmail Öşme and Thai artisan Damrong Prommokhak. The thoughtfully curated design elevates the dining experience, inviting guests to indulge in both culinary and visual pleasures.
