Cirali Arikanda Restaurant 2

Ate here twice, and will probably go back one more time before we leave. The staff is very friendly, the food is good, and their "baked halva" dessert is good enough to make us come back twice. They also have an excellent chilli-chicken, which is a mix of bread, tomatoes and yogurt combine with spicy (but not overly) chicken breast. It's a bit like an "iskender" type dish, but chicken-based instead of red meat. This, and the baked halva are highly recommended!

Variety of tasty food, reasonable pricing and excellent service from kind people. Not our first time here, and we will come back again. Thanks, and keep up the great work! :)

Very nice restaurant with excellent food! Very friendly people and best fish ever! Just beautiful, sitting under the trees and enjoying the great food and enjoying life!

Delicious food and very polite personnel. The adana kebab was tasty

This was our favourite restaurant by far. I had steak first time around, one of my kids had Margherita pizza (I had to steal a bit as it was better then most UK efforts). The steak was cooked as appropriate for a traveller (ie not rare) but I was astonished at how tender it was . My fussy kids tried it and almost deprived me of it. Next time we all had steak and despite the size they all ate it. Apparently at the same time as I complemented on the steak another complained ?overcooked? None of our steaks were over cooked. The hospitality was the best: Akif the owner (it’s apparently the only restaurant that does not have a hotel to back it up) made us feel welcome, special and happy. On each visit.

Best restaurant in Cirali (and I visited many). Every time I come here I leave super happy and it’s hard to leave.. Every time I take the full table of different dishes, finish it all but feel light and full of energy. Awesome food, great people! ..Was just passing by another night and started looking at menu when Host Akif nicely and passionately approached me and explained their wide selection. Everything he said was exceeded by Chef Ahmed performance. So far I tried few dishes of lam, grilled octopus, few salads, veg dishes, pede (Turkish pizza from wooden oven).. EVERY dish was fest for senses and eyes.. love their beautiful oven bread and mezze that comes with it for starter.. Deserts are super! But most wonderful that it feels like visiting old friend every time who apparently is a great cook. They work like a family. All guys are full of life and character. You feel so warm and welcomed. Real Turkish hospitality... This place is deep in my heart not just while I am in Cirali but I will remember it forever. Good reason to come back to Cirali!

Great place! very tasty food and friendly staff!

Calling all vegetarians and vegans! This is your place! Sometimes it can be difficult to find a satisfying meal in Turkey when you don’t eat meat but this is the restaurant for you. Staff and owner speak excellent English and are ready to help answer any questions. The food is fantastic and there are so many choices you can return night after night! Order the lavash. It’s a treat!
