Antalya is a sprawling
resort destination with hundreds
of restaurants
of all types.
During the four decades that I've
been visiting, it has also been a city
in which the restaurant scene
changes rapidly, and not always for the better.
Perhaps this is to be expected. In
a seaside resort, visitors
arrive in droves along with
the summer sun and fill the beaches,
hotels and restaurants.
They later leave in droves when
the clouds and
showers of autumn presage the damp,
chilly winter.
Restaurants that happily
served hundreds of guests each evening
in summer may have to close in winter,
losing experienced staff.
Breakfast is included in the price
of most hotel rooms in Turkey, except
for those in large,
modern luxury hotels.
Lunch is often a
picnic at the beach, or at one of the
many ancient archeological sites that
can easily be visited using Antalya as a base.
That leaves dinner, and
when you're on vacation you want it
to be good, an entirely pleasant and
delicious experience, preferably in
a shady garden setting or with a view
of the sea.
If you are staying in a boutique
hotel or inn in Kaleiçi,
your hotel probably has a dining
room serving
table d'hôte or a
la carte meals, and this is a
good bet for good quality at reasonable
prices.
In fact, dinner may be included in your room price (half-board).
If it's not, try shopping around among
the good
boutique hotels for one with
a restaurant that looks to be to your
taste. Many welcome patrons from outside
the hotel.
