Got here around 1 on a Thursday afternoon and it was quite although it slightly picked up by the time I was done. Spacious and mostly indoor seating. Ordered a Spicy Kebab and a lamb shish kebab for take away. Started with the Lavas bread freshly made in the wood fire oven. So light, hollow ballon resemblance and hot, paired perfectly with the delicious Haydari (yogurt sauce.) The spicy kebab (the most popular for the Turkish as my server shared) was similar to one that I had in Bodrum. Perfectly grilled, tender beef and spiced just right-seasoned and not really spicy. The Lamb shish kebab was also very tender and just right grilled. Loved the rice that came with the order. Paired it all with an Efes-local Pilsner Beer-crisp, cold and tasty. Service was attentive and upbeat. Make the short walk to this spot for some authentic, local deliciousness!

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.
