"everything excellent, the aperitif, tea and coffee from the house. I recommend this local restaurant."

"We ordered calamari and it was 350 liras for 8 pieces of calamari that were drenched in oil. The fries were so oily you couldn’t eat them and the salmon said it was grilled but it was fried, dripping in oil, with no flavor. The kofte and rice had no salt. The meal was horrible and overpriced, especially the calamari. We ended up barely eating at all and spending 1000+ liras.
UPDATE: The food gave us food poisoning. We suspect they are serving bad calamari/meat or reusing and serving old food. Do not take your chances and eat here unless you want to get sick. I don’t normally write reviews, especially since this is a family owned business. But people should know what they are getting when they eat here. Very upset we spent so much money (most expensive meal we have had in Alanya) and we didn’t get to eat our leftovers/we got so sick from the food."
