"This spacious family-run restaurant welcomed its first diners in 1955. Today, the third generation is at the helm of what has become a firm favourite for many locals, who flock to the large counter to choose their favourite mezze, soups and hot dishes. You can start with the lentil soup, follow that with some spicy spinach with yoghurt and fresh mint, and then finish off with a delicious sweet and creamy rice pudding. Since everything is made fresh here, you should be aware that once it's sold out, it's really gone." - Michelin Inspector
Türkiye: Dining like locals in İzmir: Adil Müftüoğlu, Beğendik Abi, Ayşa Boşnak Börekçisi
"Founded in 1955, Uğur Lokantası has become synonymous with the name of its founder; today, most people know it as “Adil Müftüoğlu” rather than by its original name, “Uğur”. This family-run restaurant is now in its third generation and one of the best diners not only in İzmir, but in the whole of Türkiye." - The MICHELIN Guide
Michelin recommended resturant. Classical turkish "On display" ready food restuarant which is called "Esnaf lokantasi" in Turkish. We ate dinner around 8:30 which is late for this kind of restuarant but there were still food. Salad was on the house. We had one meze, and main course, i started with a half portion of chicken soup. Soup was excellent. we had lamp tandir, special meat ball dish with eggplant begendi inside. All of them were delicious. Portions were big, we end up full without trying the desserts. Tea service followed automatically. overall very good. Towards 10 pm they start closing.
