Tavacı Recep Usta
Michelin Bib Gourmand Anatolian grill on Atatürk Caddesi
The Alsancak room of the famed tavacı, awarded a Bib Gourmand in the 2026 Michelin Guide Türkiye for good-value cooking with real depth. The kitchen turns out tava, charcoal kebabs and Southeastern grills that draw İzmir families and gastronomes alike. Substance over spectacle, in a city that rewards exactly that.
