If you find yourself on the western coast of Turkey in the lovely city of Izmir and, somehow wish…read moreyou could have some Italian food, don't despair. You won't have to fly to Italy to satisfy your hunger. All you have to do is visit Mezzaluna.
The food is outstanding and it'll make you believe that you're at a pizzeria on a hot Roman afternoon. The ambience is great, right on the Ægean, the service is good, the prices are high but it's worth every cent. Book it ahead of time, try to get a patio seat if you're there spring or summer.
