Submitted to our guide by the owner Carlos, described with his own words as: "Le Cuistot Bistro is an authentic Franco-Belgian restaurant located in the heart of Pera, Beyoğlu. For more than 12 years, it has been a welcoming spot for both locals and international guests, especially well-known and appreciated within the LGBT+ community. Our atmosphere is warm, inclusive, and very friendly, making everyone feel comfortable and respected. We serve traditional Belgian and French cuisine such as mussels with fries, pepper steak flambéed with cognac, blanquette de veal, and homemade desserts. Combining authenticity, gastronomy, and conviviality, Le Cuistot Bistro has become a favorite meeting place where diversity and good taste come together." (27/09/2025)
