Wallabies Aquaduct Restaurant
Beneath the hotel of the same name, this recently refurbished restaurant spills out onto the square beneath the Byzantine aqueduct, guaranteeing atmospheric summer dining. The traditional Anatolian fare is complemented by more international offerings, including veggie dishes and fish. Definitely try the house specialty, krep tavuk sarması – a specially seasoned chicken dish, baked under a ridge of mashed potatoes sprinkled with bechamel sauce. Incredibly delicious.

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.
