A good starter with Eggplant salad, various dips and clams as side snacks. then we got a Turkish fish - which tasted fantastic. The staff was very customer friendly and they did a good job - with a smile. This place is not the cheapest in the local area - but more than superb in taste and surroundings - thanks for a great experience.

We are two ladies, middle-aged, and maybe that was why they weren't very friendly to us. We don't know. But the service was not welcoming. We wanted to order lots of things, but for whatever reason they did not pay much attention to us. We did go over to the fresh sea food counter which was quite impressive. And we ordered Seabass and shrimp, but out of all the places we've eaten in turkey, five or six other restaurants, the food here was only marginal. So because of the food, and the service, I'm only giving us a three star review. For the same price - which is low all over İzmir- I'd recommend YYengec and Deniz - Both of those restaurants far surpass this one with food excellence and extremely incredible service. And both of the locations rival this restaurant as they are both on the water.

Grilled shrimp is perfectly done on a shish with grilled peppers and lemon---this is a must order! Everything is served with a signature yogurt dill sauce that is fresh and delicious. Of course, what great Turkish restaurant would be complete without a yummy complimentary salad? Theirs is a rocket salad with pickled cabbage, onion, tomato and cucumber. The ambience and decor is lovely whether inside or outside. Also, the prices are very reasonable. A must when shopping in downtown Izmir.

Their specialty is the steak, but we went the seafood meze and cold meze route - which being on the Aegean this rarely is a bad choice. It's all of very good quality. Nothing that will knock your socks off, but you won't be disappointed if you just want to come out for a change of scenery. There is also a full bar and since I don't do raki (I know...shame on me. I'm a retired raki drinker) is a big plus. They kept my gin and sodas flowing. In the summer, there is seating right by the Levent Marina - which is a great spot to take in the sea and daydream about that boat you've always wanted.
