"A family‑run İzmir fixture for over 40 years, this restaurant—founded by Ahmet Günter Sezener, father of Osman Sezener—is known by all locals and has earned a place in the city’s memory. In a town with a Levantine community of Italian origin, its authentic Italian cooking—crispy pizzas and delicious ravioli—is very popular, and precisely because it has managed to attract people who already know these dishes from their homes, it has stood the test of time for so many years. The kitchen also fuses cultures with unique dishes such as “al dente mantı” stuffed with shrimp (no longer on the menu, now replaced by “ravioli stuffed with shrimp”) and the alla turca pizza, which is still served today." - Guide MICHELIN
