Every person (local or tourist) should go here. Get a table outside or inside. Inside a little small but spring or summer under the tree it's a beautiful spot to be. The waiters are like doctors. Literally... You're illness is hunger and they give you the medication you need (a feast)! The tea at end is the final blow which puts you to sleep :) Just writing about this I want to go now. Afiyet olsun!

This is a place where meat dishes are the highlight, but there are many vegetable dishes available. Tavaci has enough seating for a lot of people, I think about 200.

Our service was flawless with three waiters serving us. The sesame pita triangle breads were complimented by crumbled cheese with walnuts and that's just the free starter. We had two mezes, one cold and one hot. The hot mushrooms with melted cheese were great. The cold broccoli , aubergine and tatzikii meze were as good. My chicken kebab was lovely and my wife's lamb kebab was tender and full of flavour. With two glasses of wine and water the bill was 110TL which to North Americans was a great bargain. The view alone on the outside balcony was exceptional. Loved it all.

I was alone and I was not sure they would seat me because I saw no tables with less than 6 persons. They cleared off a table they were using to expedite and prettied it up nicely and I am so happy they did because this meal was incredible! My favorite item was the fish soup. I could have eaten 2 bowls and been 100% happy. It is a good thing for me that this was my last night in Izmir because, I would have been happy to eat here every day for every meal. That would be pricey. If I am fortunate to return to Izmir, I will absolutely return.
