Tiritçi Mithat
Tarihi Tiritçi Mithat
A famous tirit restaurant in a small alley next to the Aziziye Mosque, known for its broth-soaked bread topped with yogurt and lamb; open only until early evening.
Located in a small alley next to the Aziziye Mosque, close to the Mevlana Museum, with a small storefront and an inconspicuous sign. The signature tirit uses bread soaked in rich broth as a base, topped with yogurt sauce and lamb shank meat, and sprinkled with sumac for flavor. The taste is rich and slightly oily, and you can order saffron rice pudding (safranlı zerde) for dessert. Recommended by Vedat Milor, it has a Tripadvisor rating of about 4.2. It can get crowded during peak hours, and some diners complain about slow service. The tirit may sell out before early evening, so lunch visits are recommended. Sunday opening hours vary by source, so please call to confirm first.
