The best restaurants Bodrum (Halicarnass)

Large selection of mezze and many varieties of meat and fish that you can eat on a table on the water.

It is better to arrive early, the address is known to the Turks. Grills in the rules of art at very reasonable prices!

Good plan alert! In the covered area of the fish market is hidden a little wonder! You buy your fresh fish for example at the Senol Balikçilik fish shop 2 meters from the Marmara restaurant which then prepares and cooks it to perfection for you. All you have to do is sit down and choose from the many delicious hot and cold mezzes to accompany your catch of the day. Cheaper and nicer than the marina's restaurants. A small glass of raki to finish and it's a party! Friendly waiters.

Sakir the owner (in love with Paris) welcomes you since 2005 with a smile and proposes an excellent regional cooking based on fresh products at a very correct price (rather rare in Bodrum). Here everything is made at the minute and the portions are very generous. Great choice of kebabs (the adana dürüm with its precise and spicy seasoning is a marvel), soups (try the one with red lentils), lahmacun and authentic local dishes. Friendly and fast service. Take-out or delivery available.

This is a great address on the marina to eat the famous manti but also lots of other good things like fantastic meatballs or the tasty cökertme kebabı. For starters, try the halloumi cheese. Everything is prepared to order. The restaurant does not serve alcohol but does offer excellent homemade lemonade, perfect for cooling down after a long walk. Tea and coffee are on the house. Friendly waiters, friendly atmosphere. Reasonable prices, quite rare in the center of Bodrum.

This restaurant, one of the oldest in Bodrum, can be reached either from the bazaar or from the marina. Located on a small square, very central, in the shade, it is the perfect place to discover the famous doner with vegetables of Bodrum: a spit of meat assembled with vegetables, a treat! The meats are of good quality, the bread is made on the spot and the staff is welcoming. It is a popular address, known by the locals and very frequented. The good news is that in summer the place is open 24 hours a day. In the mood for a peasant plate at 4am? Hoş geldiniz!

Charming restaurant, ideal for a romantic dinner or with friends. With its intimate atmosphere and terrace, the selection of seafood is impressive. A few selections from the menu will make your mouth water: oysters au gratin with parmesan cheese, baked mussels, squid, octopus tentacles, fresh sea urchins, and many other finely cooked bivalve mollusks... The tasting menu will save you a lot of thought. The two young brothers (one at the stove and the other at the service) will gladly advise you among the different preparations.

Körfez Restaurant is the oldest restaurant in Bodrum, open since 1927. On a beautiful terrace with a view of the sea. Ali, the owner, likes to tell the history of Bodrum. Here, the seafood is in the spotlight. Shrimps, crayfish, fried squid, octopus, you will not know what to choose! The recipes have been handed down from generation to generation, the fish dishes are delicious and the service is of high quality. A bar with traditional music, located in a street perpendicular to Cumhuriyet Street, offers a local atmosphere and a good rakı.

What makes Cirali different from other stores is that here the meat is charcoal grilled, giving your doner an extra flavor! You choose your meat by weight. If you are hungry, the iskender kebap with its long slices of meat should fill you with happiness. If you are really hungry, choose the full plate with raw vegetables and rice. The lavas bread, the traditional flat cake, is excellent, perfect to accompany a lamb dürüm. The beyti kebab is great. Efficient and friendly service.

In a narrow street in the center of Bodrum, this no-frills restaurant offers what some say are the best pizzas in the area. You can enjoy them on a cute terrace in the shade of the trees.

This beautiful restaurant located on the terrace of the hotel of the same name, offers a splendid view of the bay of Bodrum and its castle. But the view will not be your only source of satisfaction.
