Lezzetçi

Top choice in Central Anatolia


This poshed-up pide (Turkish-style pizza) and kebap restaurant, complete with exposed-brick walls and modern chandelier lighting, does food as good as its decor. Have the beyti kebap (spicy ground meat baked in a thin layer of bread) or feast on the sivas kebapı (lamb, aubergine and peppers, similar to a tokat kebap; half/full portion for two people ₺40/65).
