5/5 Posita 7508 (. 9 months ago on Google
To
end
our
first
full
day
in
İzmir
we
came
based
on
my
boyfriends
recommendation
(his
#1
pick
for
his
summer
home
city).
We
were
greeted
at
the
door
and
asked
for
a
table
with
a
view
however
didn’t
have
a
reservation
and
the
online
form
(filled
out
15min)
prior
didn’t
make
it
in
time
🥲.
However
Chef
Battal
Bay
quickly
came
to
the
entrance,
saw
we
were
visiting
and
found
us
a
table
to
accommodate
the
six
of
us
with
no
issue
and
that
was
just
the
start
of
our
amazing
service.
As
soon
as
we
sat
at
the
table
#1-
go
pick
out
your
fish/seafood,
#2
tell
Chef
how
you
would
like
it
prepared
(we
never
even
gave
him
a
chance
to
show
us
his
menu,
which
I
now
regret.
And
great
reason
to
return)
#3-
salad
or
meze
w/LOTS
of
options
#4-
drink
(Rakı)
#5-
sit
back
and
enjoy
the
evening.
Fresh
pasta,
amazing
produce
for
all
sides,
wait
staff
checking
up
for
everything,
chef
Battal
making
sure
everything
is
100%
to
our
liking
or
else
taking
it
back
(we
loved
everything),
and
never
the
need
to
call
anyone.
All
was
anticipated.
They
truly
made
us
feel
as
if
we
were
guests
in
their
home
with
all
their
personal
attention.
I
cannot
recommend
visiting
here
enough
and
experiencing
the
food
and
the
famed
izmir
friendliness
and
hospitality
while
enjoying
some
Beylerbeyi
Rakı
and
an
amazing
sunset
with
friends
and
family.
I
will
definitely
be
coming
back
to
izmir
just
so
I
can
return
to
enjoy
Chef
Battal’s
menu
😍😍
