DORTMEVSİM Hotel

The barbecue and wood-fired oven will catch your eye as soon as you enter this congenial establishment, which has a cosy terrace in the lane to the rear. The chef expertly tames the open fire to cook delicious dishes, such as kebab and grilled dry-aged steak. The mixed grill is a signature dish here: a variety of juicy meats, oven-fresh bread and a judicious sprinkle of sumac. This restaurant offers great value for the money, serving delicious food without pretensions.

The castle and rooftops of Bodrum, the azure sea, even some Greek islands – the view from the top floor of The Marmara hotel is truly breathtaking! The restaurant has a Mediterranean feel, and that spirit carries through to the menu. The chef takes pride in skilfully elevating local ingredients and traditional recipes, for example, house-made pasta cooked al dente, tossed in a robust herb cream and topped with grated goat's cheese from the region, basil leaves and dried fruit. Be sure to treat yourself to the legendary baklava, too!

If you're on the hunt for a lively place in which to have lunch among the locals, look no further. Kismet Lokantasi serves delicious food at great value for money in a laid-back atmosphere. Peruse the counter for traditional delicacies prepared by the chef, then choose your favourites. Think succulent meatballs with grilled aubergine and tomato sauce, and, for dessert, a rich patisserie with walnuts and just the right amount of sweet syrup – foodies will be in seventh heaven! This indulgent dining experience will leave a lasting impression.

The luxurious Caresse resort's Mediterranean restaurant offers a delightfully laid-back dining experience. Watch the chefs at work in the outdoor kitchen while cocktails are shaken in the bar and chill-out music fills the air. The view of the sea and the moored yachts never gets old! Seafood takes centre stage here, cooked up in traditional Greek and Italian ways. Wonderfully crispy deep-fried squid with a fresh tartar sauce, barbecued sea bass with perfectly seasoned vegetables: the best of Mediterranean cuisine served up without any fuss.
