Nusr-Et Steakhouse, the high-end meat restaurant chain owned and
operated by d.ream (Doğuş Restaurant Entertainment and
Management) together with legendary chef Nusret Gökçe and
founding partners Mithat Erdem. Born in 1983, Nusret Gökçe started
working at a butcher house when he was 13. In order to improve his
butchering knowledge, he travelled to Buenos Aires and New York, where he
worked at local restaurants at the age of 26. After his return, he
developed his own butchering techniques and recipes with his
extensive knowledge about meat. On his return to Istanbul, with his
passion for meat and great ambition, he developed new butchering
techniques that he started implementing in his first restaurant in Etiler
Çamlık (opened in 2010). Serving delicious meat in a home-like
atmosphere, Nusr-Et Steakhouse quickly became the leading restaurant
representing steakhouse culture in the city. Nusret Gökçe, who gained
worldwide fame with his ‘Salt Bae’ move, became a viral sensation
when videos of his signature meat seasoning technique hit the internet.
After that chef Nusret Gökçe started to be called out as “Sat Bae”.
As of now, Nusr-Et welcomes its guest in eight locations in
Turkey, two locations at UAE (Dubai & Abu Dhabi) and one in USA
(Miami). Plans are in place to make Nusr-Et a global brand,
with London and New York openings are on the pipeline.
Hand-selected by master butcher Nusret Gökçe from carefully sourced
producers around the world, our steaks are cut to a unique house style.
Selected cuts are aged for a minimum of 20 days. All are grilled to
order over charcoal embers. Nusr-Et Steakhouse’s menu includes some
signature dishes like ‘Nusret Spaghetti; Thinly sliced steak strips with
sea salt’, ‘Lokum Beef Fillet’, ‘Nusret Special; Tenderloin sliced and
griddled on a hot plate with butter’ and ‘8 Hours Roasted Asado
Short Rib’.
