    Ejder Restaurant

    Receiving warm words from travellers, this simple little place is picturesquely set near a fountain with views of the aqueduct. Run by a welcoming husband-and-wife team, Mehmet does the meat, his wife the veg! All of the food's pretty tasty.

    Amazon

    With its classical music and stools around a bar, the brand-new Amazon looks more wine-bar than restaurant, but the İzmiri chef has a great reputation and serves good international dishes using fresh local ingredients. The set lunch is great value. The paintings hung on the walls are by young local artists and are for sale. Outside there are a few tables with distant views of the Artemis temple.

    Café Carpouza

Run by the municipality, prices are kept low; this place offers the best value in town.

    Selçuk Köftecisi

    Though recently discovered by the tour groups, this doesn't detract from the superb home cooking of this family-run place. If you want a table outside, come early or later. The prices are unbeatable too.
