Long ago, a traveler wandered deep into an untouched jungle — not in search of treasure, but something far more elusive: understanding. Surrounded by nature’s wild symphony — where chaos met harmony, where shadow danced with light — they found something rare: balance, beauty, and meaning. Moved by what they felt, they made a vow:
To one day create a space where others could experience the same wonder — not by escaping the city, but by transforming it. That vision became A la Selva. Here, we bring the essence of the jungle to the heart of Istanbul. Not just in colors or textures, but in rhythm, flavor, and emotion. A place where elegance surrenders to instinct. Where every bite, every note of music, every flicker of candlelight carries the pulse of something ancient and wild.
A la Selva is not just a restaurant. It is a sanctuary. A tribute to life’s richness — to curiosity, connection, and the art of feeling alive. This is not simply an experience.
This is A la Selva — where elegance runs wild.
Dive into a culinary journey where the elegance of Nikkei cuisine — a vibrant fusion of Latin American and Japanese traditions — unfolds in a jungle-inspired setting, right in the heart of Istanbul.
