About Neşeli Mantı

Neşeli Mantı is a small home-cooking restaurant on 13. Sokak in central Dikili, known above all for its mantı. Visit İzmir, the tourism portal of İzmir Metropolitan Municipality, says the place seats around 30 guests and is chosen by regulars for its clean setting. The menu brings mantı in the style of the Kayseri region, içli köfte and helva from the Bingöl region, and oven-baked rice pudding, plus one soup of the day. The mantı is served with a tomato paste sauce and homemade yoghurt, and can be ordered with garlic or with less garlic. Regulars praise the handmade sauce and the touch of garlic, according to Visit İzmir. The restaurant also serves handmade pasta with parmesan and a choice of sauces, as shown on its own Instagram and Facebook pages, and visitor reviews from 2025 confirm it is still trading at the same address.
