Top 10 Restaurants In Antalya

A multifaceted dining scene in Antalya allows visitors to experiment with Turkey’s cuisine before trying that of other countries like Italy, Greece, and France. We present 10 of the best dining spots on Antalya’s foodie map.

Club Arma

Offering superb views of the Kaleiçi, Antalya’s old town, of the marina, and of the Bey Dağları mountain range, Club Arma has established itself as one of the most prominent eateries in the Southern Turkish city. A blend of different influences, the architecture of the building housing Club Arma reflects its previous function of industrial factory, and the subsequent use as flour mill and storage space, and brings together local stone with the structure of the Italian arches. Great care is given to the presentation of dishes, which present diners with the freshest locally sourced fish.

Il Vicino Pizzeria

Perfect for those who wish to hop across the Mediterranean and taste some Italian cuisine, Il Vicino Pizzeria enjoys a central location on the old streets of central Antalya. A modern and eclectic decor welcomes diners in a fizzy and colourful atmosphere. Voracious eaters can feast on an appetizer before sinking their teeth into one of the traditional Italian pizzas or trying one of Il Vicino’s signature creations. Sweet options are also available in combinations of flavours like gorgonzola and strawberries, or pumpkin and mascarpone.

Lara Balikevi

Since its opening in 2002, Lara Balikevi has built a reputation for serving some of the best seafood in Antalya. After five years of activity, a second branch was opened; enjoying similar locations along the shore and offering equally pleasing views of the sea, both restaurants are decorated in a modern style and have ample outdoor terraces and gardens. A big counter displays the day’s catch, which is used to create the restaurant’s fresh daily dishes. While halal options are also available, fish is certainly the restaurant’s strength and comes served in masterfully arranged presentations.

Otantik

Otantik Boutique Hotel is a small hotel located in the historical centre of Antalya. Featuring its own restaurant and wine bar, Otantik is among the most appreciated eateries in town. The colours of dark wood and lime green decorate the interior hall, which extends into an open courtyard illuminating the rustic space framed by stone walls. With tables lined along the outside wall on the pavement, Otantik has a charming atmosphere. The cuisine blends flavours from across Turkey with international influences to delight guest with beautiful dishes.

Patio Bistro & Restaurant

Sited in the context of the Puding Marina Hotel, in the heart of Antalya’s old town district, Patio greets diners with a homely and rustic yet refined ambience. The menu is a journey through many of the countries washed by the waters of the Mediterranean sea with some influences coming from further away. Fois gras from France, gazpacho soup with shrimps from Spain, Turkish mantiand kuzu kavurma(Turkish roasted lamb with shallots, green peppers and cherry tomatoes), grilled halloumi cheese salad from Greece, vitello tonnato from Italy and tempura from Japan all find a place on Patio’s à la carte menu.

Seraser Fine Dining

One of the most renowned spots on Antalya’s dining scene, Seraser Fine Dining is situated in the historical centre of the city. A visit to this restaurant is bound to be a feast for all the senses: smell will be delighted by the scent of the Mediterranean garden recreated in the open courtyard, while the sight will be pleased by the elegant decor, the warm light illuminating the stone walls and velvet chairs, the decor details like amphorae and statues that give the ambience a unique flair. Finally, taste will be tickled by the rich choice available on the menu and satisfied by the flavours of Seraser’s traditional Turkish cuisine.
