Meze by Lemon Tree
Meze by Lemon Tree Review
Mezes in this trendy and attractive spot put a clever international spin on traditional favorites—a gazpacho-like, basil-infused version of acili ezme (red pepper spread) is served in a shot glass—while others, such as sea bream with chickpeas and mustard sauce, are friendly chef-owner Gençay Üçok's unique creations. Though slightly overshadowed by the inventive mezes, main dishes include standouts like lamb sirloin and a delicious variation on sea bass cooked in paper.
