The 22 Best Restaurants and Vineyards in İzmir, Turkey | Eater

"Chef Can Aras’s comfortable modern seafood restaurant in the center of Alaçatı is outfitted with a retractable roof, allowing customers to enjoy their meal beneath enveloping foliage. Amongst the indispensable dishes of the dinner-only restaurant, look for the lobster roll, grilled dry-aged fish, mackerel crudo with truffle vinaigrette, sea bass ceviche, dog snapper crudo with wakame, and — the talk of the town — the seafood paella. Aras brings a modern approach and handles local ingredients masterfully, layering flavors and visuals on each plate. There are a la carte and tasting menu options, a selection of local wines, and cocktails to complement every flavor. Unpretentious, elegant, and delicious is what you get at Amavi. Note: Amavi is open six months of the year, from April to October." - Tuba Şatana
