“ A very nice place to eat with reasonable prices. The fish is very good (ask which is the fresh one, the staff will help you out), and cheap - 30 tl! Pancakes are great too! Big portions. We avoided the place first, because it's next to the shop, so I assumed for some reason it's gonna be bad because it's some sort of a "touristic" spot. But I was wrong - would recommend this place for sure ”
“ Aromatic and delicious It's a good spot to eat and relax. ”
“ More important and impressive than the quality of the food and the perfect service was the warmth, sincerity and smiling faces of the entire team. I figured that they have a motto to go beyond just satisfying and delight their customers. Well done guys! Keep up the excellent work... ”
“ We came to this restaurant several times during our stay in Çıralı due to the varied menu, friendly ambiance and excellent food at a decent price. Highly recommended. ”
“ I have tried 3 restaurants in Cirali that was the best! Chicken leg was cooked to perfection, shakshuka was very tasty as well. The service was impeccable both times (a Turkish guy who lived in Germany for a while and he could speak English). ”
“ All the food we ordered was delicious. The price was okey. The service and the atmosphere was nice. You will not regret ”
“ Finally a restaurant in Turkey that measures up to the Turkish restaurants in the UK! So often on our 10 day trip we have either been paying extortionate money for very good or very bad food, or at the most lowly local joint where the cheapness makes you worried. Finally we found a place doing good quality food for a reasonable price and service with some modicum of warmth. We had a fantastic atom, a slightly undercooked roasted eggplant that was still tasty, shepherds salad for starters which were perfectly complimented with the free large bread. Then he had Urfa kebab whilst I had Lamb Shish both were very good. We had a decent bottle of red wine too. Worth visiting in Çirali if you want good food at a decent price in a nice setting with a bit of atmosphere!!! ”
“ As a Turkish person who's quite picky about food, I can confidently recommend this restaurant. The salads and sea fish were absolutely amazing, complemented by great service and friendly, smiling staff. I stayed in Çıralı for 5 days and ended up coming here most of the time—after trying a couple of other highly rated places, we found nothing else compared. Later, we discovered the restaurant also has its own bungalows, and we honestly wished we had stayed there too, given the convenience of the location and the excellent food and service. ”
