The best restaurants Northern Cyprus

This restaurant in the centre of Kyrenia (opposite the Dome Hotel) is a busy address. Grilled meats are the main speciality of the place. There are delicious historical accompanied by salads.

Le poisson vivant" is one of Kyrenia's best fish restaurants. It has a beautiful terrace directly on the Old Port, with a view of the castle. Habib, the owner, knows how to take good care of his guests. But be sure to check the prices for whole fish, so as not to be surprised when you pay the bill. Among the less expensive options, sardines and mackerel are very good. And the menu also includes meat, mezze, soup and some vegetarian dishes.

A little away from the centre, but not far from the bus station, offers mezze, meat dishes that change a little (rabbit for example) from certain restaurants reserved for tourists. Authenticity guaranteed!

A kind of English pub-restaurant whose menu may delight those who already have enough grilled meats.

You will find this place in the "Port Street" (Liman Yolu), in front of the Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque. Under the vaults of a vast medieval room decorated with care and parsimony, this restaurant-pub is rather chic and affordable. Ideal for an aperitif with a wide range of cocktails made with fresh fruit, including a mojito-raspberry to swallow its sombrero. Not bad also for a small or a big hunger with a real world food panegyric: grilled meats, tapas, fish, salads, burgers, pasta, fajitas, etc..

A pretty expensive restaurant in the heart of a tourist area. We eat very good fish dishes.

This restaurant, founded in 1975, is pretty good. It boasts a terrace with a beautiful view of the Lala-Mustafa-Pacha mosque. The set menu is copious: a wide assortment of mezzés, grilled meats, salad and dessert. But if you choose the à la carte menu (seafood, fish, wines, craft beers...), it's really more expensive. Efficient staff. Reservations recommended in high season. FYI, Aspava stands for Allah Sağlık Para Aşk Versin Amin ("May God give you health, money, love, Amen").
