Moshonis takes its name from Moshonisi, the old Greek name of Cunda island, and Chef İsmail cooks accordingly: an Ayvalık-Greek kitchen where the meze case runs toward a hundred items, Aegean herbs are handled as seriously as the fish, and the lakerda is cured in-house. Regulars on the Anatolian side name it first when the plan is rakı and fish, and the ordering ritual is the correct one, walk the case and point. White tablecloths, blue-rimmed plates, a window onto the Cadde's plane trees. It holds the corridor's north end the way Hatay holds its south.

Editor's Tip

Walk the meze case before sitting down; the Ayvalık-style cured fish and the Aegean herbs are the point, and the daily fish list is honest about what actually came in. Book by phone for weekend evenings; the room fills with regulars early.
