A long-standing family-style restaurant in the heart of Ilica (with a branch in Çesme) serves the best köfte (meatballs) in town, accompanied with a piyaz salad (navy beans, tomatoes, parsley, and onions). Make sure to leave room for the homemade kunefe (shredded wheat, cheese, syrup, and chestnuts). Wine and beer is served.
