Fahri'nin Yeri Alaçatı - Cesme

I eat a lot of fish, but this place is something special. absolutely stunning view, service and selection of gear!

Magical view and delicious mezes. I strongly recommend the glasswort, octopus, and candied pumpkin with buffalo cream. The fried calamari is crunchy on the outside and soft and buttery on the inside. Service speed could, however, be improved. ₺₺₺₺

Great selection of fish and mezes on top of an incredible view. Service was great too. The only thing we did not like was the octopus.

VERY expensive. No menu. Seating has no shade. Better in the late evening. Food is very good.

I visited this restaurant with some apprehension after reading comments stating it was very expensive. However, I found that the situation is not as exaggerated as I expected. At a well-known seaside restaurant in Alaçatı Port, the prices are what you would anticipate for the location. The flavors, however, fall a bit flat when compared to the name and the prices. The rocket, tomato, and cheese salad was magnificent, priced at 22₺ for a single serving. The grilled octopus was flavorful, allowing you to enjoy both the essence of the octopus and the grilled taste. One leg costs 50₺, which I find very reasonable. The sea bream was juicy and tasty, bringing the essence of the sea. It is priced at 180₺ for 500 grams. The atom meze was delicious and prepared with eggplant, in a style typical of the Aegean region, though the peppers were not spicy enough. The shrimp was tender, and the calamari was tasty, with prices around 70₺. The samphire (my favorite appetizer) was disappointing; it lacked flavor, salt, and garlic. Meze prices start at 30₺. This was the first time I saw marinated sea bass served without mustard. The staff seemed tense, constantly rushing around. They were eager to take orders, but I couldn't get proper answers to my questions. It felt as though there was an expectation for you to eat quickly and leave. The sunset view is delightful, but if you stay too late, you might face a risk of getting cold – it can be really chilly.
