After reading various reviews about this restaurant we decided to have a meal here. First impression was excellent, very welcoming and we had some good advice about what mezes and fish we should try. However, after we placed our order and ordered our raki we were in for a very disappointing night. The food was good, but definitely not excellent.... More

On our first visit to Turkey, we had a chance to see İzmir, luckly we spotted the Yengeç Restaurant during our walk on the Kordon side. This is a great resturant if you want good service and great food. Our waiter in charge was so attentive and although the place was full made us feel special. The prices are very... More

We were picked up from our hotel (Swissotel) and taken to the restaurant which is on Izmir's waterfront. A top notch fish dinner with wine - hot appetizers with calamari, octopus and prawns, followed by a chef's special of sea bass done with pesto and mushrooms, and then grilled sea bass and grouper covered in oyster sauce. Excellent service. Very... More

We came to Yengec for good mezze and fresh grilled fish, and left satisfied way beyond our expectations. The patron greeted us and showed us every mezze and described the catches, helped us to order exactly the right amount and right balance of food, and continued to check on us throughout the night in a way that was gracious and...

We noticed this restaurant with my husband while we were walking to our hotel and wanted to try it as the decoration was appealing at first sight and we were extremely hungry! The location was great: a very unique, typical point of Izmir with an amazing view... There was a beautiful sunset when we started tasting our appetizers while sipping... More

My girlfriend and I visited Restaurant Yengec in March and was immediately greeted by the patron mr. Kerim Özsoydan, who took us to the adjacent fish store and presented the available catch. We had the patron recommend a couple of dishes, then selected from a large selection of various grilled vegetables and dug in. During dinner, the staff was discrete... More

on the seaside, special mezeler, excellent tursu, and good fishes, simply prepared in Turkish style but tasty. You pay for quality and position, but everything was impeccable. Recommended the grilled octopus.
